I find it funny that the Thais have not figured out that pigeon is good to eat especially the baby squab. Very expensive in some restaurants.

One lady on the news said that she had been arrested something like 6 times but that the fine was only about 500 Baht and she was making more than 2K/day in sales so she just considered "cost of doing business". No joke!

Talk about a lot of hot air.  Why bother.  There is no enforcement.  So just drop it.
