A typical week on Thailand's roads
Been this way since at least when I first lived hiere in 1972 - one could watch the truck drivers sitting "beside the holy one" instead of directly facing traffic and many times causing an accident. They are fatalistic so death tolls don't seem to affect them much, even when so many children are high on those polls too. Most drivers here learn road knowledge on a motorcycle and if one has ever spent anytime on a bike, one realizes that itis totally different from an automobile/truck. Drive the mountain roads here and watch every corner where motorcycles cut the corners and drivers that learned that way continue to do so while driving cars, trucks or buses and as you come around a mountainside, directly in front of you is a vehicle coming through the corner in YOUR lane. If you blow the horn or flash your lights, that person might then attack you due to road rage! The death tolls just don't affect them. Look at the latest bus and kids accident - parents who have not done any raising of one of the victims of this accident, are CLAIMING the insurance monies instead of letting it go to the actual person raising that child - only the thought of money can wake them up! My opinion anyway based on 30+ years in this country that I do love but also that I know is nowhere near perfect. -

Yeah what's with that? Even back in NZ at supermarkets you see people slouched over the shopping trolley. The bloody thing is for carting groceries not a support structure for fatties. To me they seem just lazy. -

Face off: Chinese fraudster has surgery to evade law in Thailand
1.5 - 8 million RMB each (6 victims) is way more than 8 million Baht. Also, who would pay up to 8 million RMB (over 1 mil USD) to secure a cabin crew job? Nothing adds up in this story. -

Thai visa shake-up: Southeast Asia consulates switch to e-visa only
No surprise at all. This "less work - less services" trend is chronic at all Embassies and Consulates worldwide. They don't want to deal with the people they are supposed to be assisting. Governments suck and are getting suckier with every passing year. -

Reasons of change
The gig economy where everyone of enterprise and initiative can be an entreprenurial marvel! Not! Whilst enthusiasm can take you to great heights, a modicom of economic wisdom enlightens one to the reality of running a business. On its face, the opportunity of realising a turnover which is far and away an enormous improvement on a lowly wage, is so very obvious, what also must be considered are the fixed costs, running costs and a reasonable return on investment after factoring in depreciation. Taking the taxi industry as an example if one were to consider joining the throng and invest in the enterprise without scrutiny, then one would be doomed to failure. simple question: what would the cost to the business be in providing a trip from Jomtien to Pattaya? At 79 baht there is very little profit margin. In fact, most probably a loss. My point is that there are so many folks now joining this gig economy that , because of their business illiteracy, are doomed to failure and exploitation. Indded, the travelling public are treated to cheap fares but at the expense, eventually , of a deleterious service and lowering of standards. You think taxi drivers are disgruntled? wait until reality bites and regula tion has to sort out the wreckage -
