Here are just a few. It took what, about 20 years from the initial plan, through multiple governments and multiple contract revisions for the BTS to finally open. This is starting to smell the same. Every successive government will make changes and each change will involve more tea money. “The public-private partnership (PPP) is being developed by the State Railway of Thailand (SRT) and Asia Era One, a consortium led by CP Group. The consortium secured the concession in 2019 after requesting 117.2 billion baht in government investment support. Major shareholders include Charoen Pokphand Holding (87.15%), Bangkok Expressway and Metro Plc (5.14%), China Railway Construction Corporation (5.14%) and Italian-Thai Development (2.57%).” Well, that’s a winning cast of characters. Having seen the quality of some public transportation projects that utilized Thai contractors, I don’t believe that this will end up being a high speed train. One example, the new M6 motorway. The roadbed is uneven. Every bridge is not level with the road. Driving on it you notice every single bump. It’s a piece of poop that’s already falling apart before it’s even officially open. Or, the Airport Rail Link. Modeled on the Hong Kong system it is “Same same but different”. Integration with the Thai-Chinese high-speed rail project? That will probably involve ever more turf wars, more contract renegotiations, more delays. Change governments, change ministers, redraft. Good luck Thailand. I hope at least one of those projects comes to fruition.Mon, 08 Jun 2026 02:36:23 +0000Mon, 08 Jun 2026 02:36:14 +0000Same here.

I'm in the process of moving all my accounts from Bangkok Bank to SCB for this very reason, but if SCB starts doing the same thing, I'm going to keep the amount of money and level of transactions with any Thai bank down to an absolute minimum. I'm really disgusted with the high-handed police state approach Thai banks are taking in their approach to managing foreign customers.Mon, 08 Jun 2026 02:34:09 +0000He’s an easy read obviously he tryed to intimidate her with the office of the presidency.what a jerk utterly pathetic and weak …..it was enjoyable watching him turn beet red when he realized he wasn’t being successful perhaps next time!I wish all the journalists would just start calling him out on his lies.I am concerned for the journalist tho he delights in destroying careers and lives.Mon, 08 Jun 2026 02:33:47 +0000SteerMon, 08 Jun 2026 02:32:50 +0000IF a tourist can't get plastered and find a companion by 4 am, give it up and become a monk. How many are at these bars at 4? If marginal, keeping open til 6 will increase operating costs with little to no increase in income. Pity the staff with those hours. Pity anyone who lives within a mile of those blasting music. Do not expand the area of businesses. I've live in Jomtien about 20 years. Finding companionship and getting plastered has never been a problem here. Dragging down our quality of life with these horrible loud, intrusive bars should be criminal. Everyone who lives in Jomtien would see their home/condo values drop.Mon, 08 Jun 2026 02:32:49 +0000are you a friend or relative of this scumbag looking for excuses ?

You can get emulators for Windows laptops that allow Android apps to run, but if you don't already use one it's not worth it just for this.

Speaking at the North Eastern Council meeting in Shillong on 4 June, Lalduhoma said the influx was creating major financial and administrative challenges. “Yes, due to geopolitical situations, we currently have many displaced persons fleeing to our side… This has become a major burden for us,” he told reporters. Official figures estimate more than 40,000 Myanmar nationals are now living across 11 districts of Mizoram, while humanitarian groups put the number at over 70,000, including those in camps and rented homes. Relief is still being distributed, but the prolonged presence of such a large population has strained public services, infrastructure and local resources. Residents have voiced concerns about social friction, drug trafficking and pressure on the labour market. On 3 June, police in Champhai district arrested eight people and seized heroin worth more than seven million rupees, underscoring the security risks linked to cross‑border migration. Fighting in Chin State’s Kanpetlet and Mindat townships, and fears of junta offensives near Rikhawdar, could trigger further arrivals. To curb illegal migration and smuggling, the Indian government has resolved to fence the entire 1,600‑kilometre border with Myanmar. The issue dominated discussions at the NEC meeting, which also focused on the “North East Vision Plan 2047” to boost regional development. Lalduhoma said proposals for increased financial assistance to support displaced communities were under consideration. For Mizoram, the challenge is not only humanitarian but structural: balancing compassion for those fleeing violence with the need to protect local stability and resources. The longer the conflict in Myanmar persists, the greater the strain on India’s border state. -2026-06-08Mon, 08 Jun 2026 02:30:29 +0000Release on bail for just long enough to bounce out of Thailand!Mon, 08 Jun 2026 02:30:21 +0000Britain's biggest threat is and always has been.
