They are now my heroes.
Starting from when the then-Justice Minister declared the Drug War lost and over, the initiative to legalize medical cannabis and culminating in the recent legalization of Cannabis.
This is a bold and long overdue action and hopefully will encourage other countries in the region to follow suit..
A civilian government would have been unlikely to have delivered this policy in any reasonable time-frame given the horse-trading necessary..
So Ms. Shinawatra and her clan had best get onboard, and how likely is that, with Papa's recent outburst comparing cannabis to opium and heroin?
Hey! Look over there!
The cannabis legalization is just a sideshow distraction from a desperately unpopular government that stole people's democracy and livelihoods at the point of a gun.

Just re-reading a few old Henry Miller classics.
Tropic of Cancer.
Quiet Days in Clichy.
Black Spring.
Amazingly rich prose, free-association and vocab. Also pretty visceral and tackles taboo (1930's era) matter with lots of energy. Great reading.

Mr Anutin said he had requested leave from the cabinet meeting. He believed he caught the virus during the trip as he had met many people who were not wearing face masks. While making speeches and chairing meetings he also had to take off his mask.
I bet he doesn't even have Covid. Just making a point about non-Thais, not wearing the ... masks.

--10,000+ people are currently hospitalized in Thailand because of COVID.
--610 of those are in serious condition with pneumonia type symptoms.
--and another 286 are in such bad condition that they've required intubation in order to breathe.

And then, of course, there was this little nugget in today's news:
COVID cognitive decline more widespread than thought, say researchers at Australia's first long-COVID clinic
"And the team has found something startling.
Does it state the average age or co-morbidity of those 10,000 people.?
"Pneumonia" is basically the intrinsic cause of death of old age or "natural causes".

Where do they do these tests for ‘sub-variants’.... Every PCR test I have taken simply responds negative,
But for those whose test returned a positive, was the variant listed ?...
Does every lab test that returns a positive test also test for a variant and sub-variant? does every lab have the equipment and expertise to test to that level of detail ????
They've all got genomic sequencers that they are fully-trained in the use of. I'm sure...

The only real opposition he has, is from his own back-benchers.

Have the newsreaders removed theirs, yet?
We (at my office) had a clean sweep of maskless staff, last week. Today the muzzles are back on again, probably due to the "new variants" being of concern, according to the daily fearmongers.

You know, I have tried using these predicted lottery numbers.
Be it car crash number plates, banana trees; monitor lizard with talcum powder; cow with two heads; snakes etc. and you know what I have never won.
I am sorry, I don't believe this spider knows any better.
Auspicious numbers are all around us..
Eight-legged creatures however, have a history of being able to forecast sporting / betting events. ????

Pull the other one will you, I drive for hours on end and never see a cop in sight, however if there is a VIP that is going to pass by, they will be at every junction, i.e. off of their lazy aces.
Yep. That's all they are. An army of the rich.
The horrendous accident stats here don't seem to bother the collective hive-mind at all. Just an unemployment solution.

Not just that - the noise was unbearable.
The local authority couldn't care less according to the locals who said they levy taxes then ignore justified complaints.
They do have a valid, erm.. point. (Getting me coat).

1 minute ago, KaputtAlreadyNa said:Oh yeah, they can. Just like your home or restaurant, 7/11 is a private property. The owner can ask you to get out of the property.
Warmest
CP Group (7/11) have a vested interest in keeping mask mandates, as they own the factories producing them.
Probably one of the main reasons the mandate has existed so long here... And another reason to avoid shopping there.

And how are they planning to carry those long sticks pull it out of their A--?
Telescopic.?
Wonder how much they cost.?

It's still a great idea, generating sales for "mom & pop" shops around the corner from the row of CP-owned supermarkets.

Constant "state of emergency", to subvert the rule of law, scare people into compliance, lock up critics and opponents, etc.
What more can you expect from a bunch of semi-educated military muppets who obviously do not have the brains or foresight to see over the trough they've got their snouts deep into..?

QuoteIf passed, the Progressive Liquor Bill would allow Thais to practice homebrewing and for small and medium breweries to enter the alcohol market.
Fingers crossed that this somehow gets through.
The lack of choice here for decent beers is an embarrassment.

QuoteChief Petty Officer 3rd Class Anuchit Phromdonkloi dived into the water and managed to rescue a mother (aged about 48) and her child.
Anuchit said that the child has terminal cancer and was on the back seat unable to help himself get out.
Poor kid. Well done to K. Anuchit for pitching in.

QuoteEfforts to spay and sterilize the dogs have been hindered by dog lovers who criticize the authorities for their actions.
I seriously doubt any "dog-lover" would object to to sterilization of strays..
They used to jab the dogs with strychnine to kill them, a few years ago. In front of horrified tourists.

Then how can millions of Americans who have been purchasing legal weed in many states NEVER EVER have had ANYTHING compared to a bad acid trip!! This of course includes weed that is 30% and higher in THC levels. You are scare mongering beyond belief! Acid and weed are completely incomparable. Your post should be flushed down the toilet!
You've obviously never tried skunk,

Greater chance of that happening from Chang beer, vodka, or yaba. Please. Wise up and start reading some reliable material, or talk to some actual pot smokers.
Will be interesting to see if any change to the horrendous traffic-accident stats here, from here on in..
Actually, the poster you're replying to may have a point. Some of the hybrid, hydroponic weed (skunk, etc), or synthetic THC ("Spice" etc) is so strong it's like a bad acid trip..

I just realised, I guess we can all delete our useless Morchana app now ????
I quite like it. I enjoy all the fear-mongering, Doctor-worshipping rubbish issued daily on the Line app. ????
Seems to be a reverse-placebo for the Thais.

It was a very sensible law. Previously, I had bought bottles of Penfolds at 3PM and was always tempted to knock the top off the bottle and sit shirtless outside Villa Market, swigging from it whilst shouting at pigeons and passing cars.

Legalisation of 5 chttps://aseannow.com/topic/1264485-legalisation-of-5-casinos-proposed-in-thailand-with-30-tax-collection/asinos proposed in Thailand with 30% tax collection

People who gamble will do so anyway. The majority of them do it on their phones or at their workplace, village, etc.
I don't see how an actual physical walk-in casino will change normal people's gambling habits, tbh.
It will prevent however, the billions of Baht / dollars that Thailand loses just over it's borders with it's immediate neighbours.
