webfact Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Assembly Drops Pet Registration Law By Teeranai Charuvastra, Staff Reporter A dog and a cat share a meal March 9 at a temple shelter in Songkhla province BANGKOK — The interim parliament has turned down the idea of a new pet law to combat rabies, an official said Thursday. Instead of moving forward with a bill that would have required people to register their animals among other measures, Jate Sirathranont of the assembly’s public health committee said the authorities would focus on vaccinating and neutering stray animals.

bluesofa Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) “It was just an idea, but it won’t become law for now,” Jate said Thursday morning.” It seems quite popular at the moment if a proposal is rejected, to claim “It was just an idea". Good face-saving move. Edited March 29, 2018 by bluesofa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel very sorry for many of these poor girls and the horrible things subjected to them Let me share a secret with you.... Those poor poor girls do it for money.... Not because they are starving...but because they want the latest smart-phone, motor-bike or more gold... They are too stupid and/or lazy to keep a normal low-paying job.... Remember the only really shameful thing in Thailand is to be poor... Luckily for those poor girls....sometimes The Great Savior (aka you) comes around.... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CeeGee Posted March 29, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) I may be wrong but I think in the UK the rule is that if a dog is found in the street without a collar, it is considered a stray and can be rounded up, taken to a pound and if not claimed after a certain number of days it is "destroyed". I am sure if this were implemented in Thailand it could solve the soi dog problem almost overnight.Responsible dog owners only have to pay 50/100 baht for a collar(possibly with name tag).No responsible owner could argue with that. No need for complex legislation ,simple, no collar, no dog. Very easy and cheap to enforce. Edited March 29, 2018 by CeeGee 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha! So that will be goodnight from all of them - forever. I'm sure I read that once you exhibit symptoms of rabies it's too late and death is inevitable.

Cabradelmar Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Thailand has 99 problems... Environmental distruction, road safefy, corruption, and soi dogs are just 4. Unfortunately somethings never change. And by the looks of it never will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for complex legislation ,simple, no collar, no dog. Very easy and cheap to enforce. Ideally the collar should have the name & address of owner... and the animal should be micro chipped. If it were compulsory to have dogs and cats micro chipped then owners can be traced, have a dual pricing system offer half price micro chipping with free "spaying and neutering", if you do not want your animals spaying or neutering you pay a big fee that subsidises the the cost of spaying and neutering for responsible owners, and if you do not get your pet chipped you may lose it. The bottom line is if you can not afford to get your animal vaccinated, chipped, spaying or neutering, and vet care when it needs it, you can not afford to keep one...
