Usual reaction from the Cops, no money in it for them, and it's just a woman anyway.

Where is that new abuse task force that was lauded ? another gone quiet story.

Cops the world over hate responding to anything with "domestic" violence involved. It's not just Thailand.

Marketbuzzz CEO, Grant Bertoli, remarked that the environment, alongside rising prices, remains a major concern for Thailand. While it tops the list, making eco-friendly choices daily is still a challenge, indicating more effort is needed for sustainable living.

 

The survey noted that companies are stepping up their environmental efforts, with four—True, PTT, Samsung, and AIS—recognised by over 40% of respondents for their positive impact.

 

Marketbuzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz obviously have a paid-for agenda here.

That's probably the whole purpose of these 'survey' agencies.

Also, more CO2 means climate change - more droughts more floods more fires and, more weeds. Greening has probably offset some of the warming but as temperatures increase so will the negative effects.

CO2 levels rise and fall with temperatures influenced by our sun; solar flares, cycles, etc. That big yellow ball in the sky doesn't influence our climate?

You wonder about CO2 emission. In China there are 62 coalmines, underground, on fire.

One doing over 50 years of producing CO2 for nothing.

USA has also a coal mine on fire for 50 years. And there are more in the world.

Mostly all caused by humans.

They dont a thing about those, as it costs money. Climate change, CO2, whatever.

It is all about making money, fast, no matter how.

Brave men killed the oil fires in Kuwait, respect for those guys. Otherwise we still had a lot more CO2.

 

The taxing is just for increasing income of government and at that same time, it should get less in CO2 emission.

All they are creating is elite society, common people cant pay and the rich dont notice it that much.

Governments ordering common people to eat a carrot, but the rich still can eat meat.

They abuse climate exchange for directing to elite society, only rich.

It is waiting for humans to pay on breathing?! For Thailand has 35 million visitors every year, increasing the CO2 emission of Thailand. So tourist CO2 tax, ah nice shorting, TCT?!

 

Fact is now, there are too many people on the world and it has a real big impact on everything, mostly negative for the home planet.

See this movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Qs_f4ZOA6E

OK, you can deny, but ...?

You remember the time there was lead in your petrol? It took a long time to finally stop with it, claiming many victims.

No clue what is in it now, that one would be right?

 

    

Yep, a litany of woe and pollution, but just bear in mind that CO2 levels in our atmosphere are currently at 0.04% only. Of which only 1/10th is produced by humans. If levels drop below 0.02%, the plants, trees, vegetation (our food sources) start dying.

CO2 is literally the 'gas of life' being repackaged (by the globalists, their paid-for scientists, and lapdog media) as (another) enemy and taxation source.

Thailand has obviously signed up to this BS by way of some 'trade deal' agreement or WEF infiltration.

People here buy these Huskies as a "fashionable" social status trinket only. Dogs bred for pulling sleds across frozen tundra in Arctic conditions reconsigned as an accessory to some muppet who would normally never consider looking after a dog as a pet or family member..

Add to the fact that this cupid stunt actually filmed herself torturing the dog and uploaded the video. Beggars belief.

I've been using broadbandservices for a couple of years. Live sports, news, etc. Package at less than 3k THB / year, and excellent value, imo.

Has it's own app to watch  / stream which is better than the iptv smarters app. Some issues with the undersea cables recently, but running a VPN in the background seems to be a solution. Has a free trial and player available on the website.

Turned out not many apps are available in the play store for this TV.

For example,  the usual browsers aren't there.

I read that many of them don't work well with TV, so I downloaded TV Bro, a  PITA.

Maybe tomorrow I will sideload Puffins, and OSM (maps aren't really available, either).

 

New Pipe works well, VPN too, TV apps from home country soso.

 

I have a 7 y.o. Philips "smart" TV in my home country, incredibly bad, and would have expected something better by now, especially from Samsung.

With Philips, I just cast the screen. 

With Samsung - not sure yet.

 

Thanks to everybody here,  especially @recom273

 

 

 

I also (foolishly) bought a Samsung "smart" tv a year ago. The apps available are from Samsung only and very limited, especially if you want to watch or have subscribed to an iptv service. (Any future purchases will be an android system). The apps on Playstore are only Samsung-approved and limited.

I got an android 'box' last month and loaded up the iptv viewers / players, and also bought a decent VPN to run in the background. Seems to work very well.

In Thailand, otters are protected under the Wildlife Preservation and Protection Act 2019. This law underscores the importance of otters in the natural food chain and the necessity of preserving their habitats. Removing otters from their natural environment not only disrupts the ecosystem but also violates legal protections.

Someone ought to tell that to the operators of tawdry 'zoos' here who keep the poor little critters in tiny cages, only let out to perform pathetic 'shows' for tourists. Hello "Underwater World" and "Nong Nooch Gardens". 🤢

The Royal Irrigation Department (RID) is preparing for an expected rise in rainfall due to La Niña, predicted to begin in the next couple of months. The RID's Director-General, Chuchart Rakjit, talked about their measures to handle the expected increase in rainfall during a virtual meeting at the RID's Smart Water Operation Center. The rainfall is expected to increase from July to October, which is usually the rainy season in the country.

It's brilliant that Thailand has a taxpayer-funded org like RID and indeed a "Smart Water Operation Center" to handle seasonal rainfall.

But is there any hysteria in any of those countries? It hardly gets a mention in the UK and certailnly doesn't make mainstream news. 

 

 

Basically, Thailand operates in the narrow little bubble of it's own language and culture. And superstition.

Some "prominent" guy in a white coat and backed by some important-sounding acronym can say anything he wants, and it will go unchallenged here.

Yep, watching this from my office window. Has expanded and increased a lot within the last 20 minutes. Maptaphut surrounding company sites have been evacuated already according to local news, just hoping fire fighters can get this under control within next couple hours..

Did you bother to read the opening post before replying or just look at the picture?

 

“The Thai Meteorological Department reported that over three dozen districts across the country's 77 provinces experienced their highest ever temperatures for April”

Well spotted. I didn't bother with much of the OP at all. Every time there is a smidge of "extreme" heat, rain, drought, or cold snap; it's "breaking all previous records", blah blah. You still taking these headlines at face value?

How can a fake cop carry out the scam at a Police Station?

Probably a relative or friend of a real (alleged) cop working there. Some companies working in this area (ours included) have been targeted by fake cops soliciting for 'protection' money, or 'donations' for PPE / bulletproof vests, etc. All scams when reported to the local officialdoms.

The UN is full of terrorists and terrorist sympathizers, they lost their relevance long ago. I would be happier  if they were disbanded and defunded.

Yep, just another globalist acronym, seeking to centralize power into fewer (unelected) hands.

My lawn has been rejuvenated by the (so far) very light rain here in Rayong. Bring it on!

Some of parents were police officers, not at the low end in terms of status and finances. Definitely at the low end of morality.

 

Life is very cheap in Thailand, according to this judge. Did the judge receive some special consideration from parents, especially the Police officers?

 

Also, what is happening to the Police officers who originally wrongfully charged the husband?

 

Yep. Only they didn't just wrongfully charge the husband, they actually tortured a BS 'confession' out of him. Utter and complete scum.

I watched a documentary recently that stated a lot of those conscripts are drafted into military and secret police duties. Basically spying on their neighbors.
