Corruption scandal hits the brakes: Thailand’s bus industry whistleblows dirty dealings
Why is the inspection period confined to six months? Because if they had the personnel to work every day there would be no chance to charge a premium for express service As it is they make enough money to take six months off and gamble or watch the soaps -

Pick-up Truck Swerves to Avoid Motorcycle, Crashes into School Van: Six Injured, Phetchabun
Na Chaliang Police Station received a report at 16.40 on October 4, of a collision between a pick-up truck and a school van at kilometre marker 184 on the Saraburi-Lom Sak Road in Huai Pong sub-district, Nong Phai district, Phetchabun. The accident resulted in five injuries in the school van. At the scene, authorities found a damaged school van belonging to Kuladis Wittayanusorn School. The rear of the van showed clear signs of being struck, with the rear wheels dislodged. Among those injured were the van driver and four students, who were rushed to Nong Phai Hospital. Nearby, a black pick-up truck with registration number from Phetchabun was found heavily damaged at the front. Additionally, a motorcycle was found at the scene, also severely damaged. The motorcyclist, identified as Mr. Phada (surname withheld), aged 67, was found unconscious and was immediately taken to Nong Phai Hospital for emergency care. Initial investigations revealed that the motorcycle had abruptly cut in front of the pick-up truck, forcing the driver of the truck to swerve. The pick-up then lost control, colliding with the rear of the school van. The impact caused the van to veer off the road, cross the median, and crash into a tree. Police have called in both the pick-up and van drivers for questioning as they continue their investigation into the exact cause of the accident. Dr. Bundit Kruthangka, head of Kuladis Wittayanusorn School, stated that he rushed to the scene upon hearing the news. After visiting the hospital, he reported that most of the injuries were minor, though one student suffered a broken arm. He noted that the accident occurred after the students had finished their final exams, and the van was en route to drop the last four students at their homes. One of the parents, Mrs. Jaruwan (surname withheld), aged 35, shared her distress. “I was waiting for my child to come home when I received a call about the accident. I was in shock, especially since I was still shaken from a recent bus fire incident. Seeing the state of the van broke my heart, but fortunately, my child only sustained minor injuries. After speaking with them and seeing they were responsive, I felt a little relieved,” she said. Authorities continue to investigate the incident to determine legal action.

Cleaning lady
Is that an agency that takes a big cut of the pie and only pays their maid employees maybe 60% after taking their cut of the fees charged? The Base has a huge amount of cleaners working there every day, as they have to prepare it for the next illegal short-term AirBNB renters coming to stay for a few days, which would include a full deep clean and change of bedsheets, towels, toilet paper, etc. -

Thai beauty queen tricked into paying 800,000 baht for victory
If she was proactive and aggressive enough, she could get all the money back from this fool. She would just need to take action into her own hands, engage in massive public humiliation, and shaming by outing this guy on every level possible, and my guess is he would pay her off just to get his life back. I've used this technique before with great success. -

Why do retirees marry in Thailand ?
Men who take advantage of poor women because they can, and ending up as Thai women haters at worst, or just grumpy old men who lost. LOL. Who is taking advantage of whom? You strike me as someone who doesn't have much if any actual experience of the farang bar scene. IMO you treat women like the weaker sex, when that is BS. Most BGs can make a man jump when they tell him to. While I had a problem with my ex, I never hated all Thai women. It was my own fault for keeping her instead of renting. An retired expat with an younger girl, I can just assume how boring it can be if have no common ground, or nothing to do, that makes them get up in the morning and start doing something, Sounds like you think the woman doesn't have a job. My wife went out to work every day, and earned her own money. Some guys really get taken for suckers. -

Thailand's Cashless Leap: Ahead of the Asean Pack by 2028
Thailand is on track to outpace its Southeast Asian neighbours in becoming a cashless society, propelled by a rapid uptake in digital payment methods. A recent survey by Visa, a global payment service giant, indicates that Thailand could transition to a cashless economy as early as 2028, beating the broader ASEAN timeline by a few years. Visa's Consumer Payment Attitude Study highlights that 22% of Thai respondents expect a cashless transition by 2028, higher than the ASEAN average of 16%. Pushing the agenda further, Thailand ranks third in the region for minimising cash use, with only 47% of wallet contents being physical cash, just behind Vietnam and Malaysia. The national platform, PromptPay, appears at the heart of this shift, having significantly driven digital payment adoption, particularly notable after the pandemic. The increase in electronic transactions has also been facilitated by widespread smartphone use. In fact, a staggering 97% of Thais report weekly usage of mobile banking apps, leading peers in the region. Mr Punnamas Vichitkulwongsa, Visa Thailand's country manager, acknowledged that although PromptPay has enhanced digital financial interactions and supported Visa business, its success has also challenged Visa’s traditional debit card operations. With a post-pandemic rise in debit card cancellations, Visa plans to combat this with new technologies like the Click-to-Pay system, slated for launch next year. Furthermore, Thailand leads the regional charge in real-time payment (RTP) adoption, with 86% of respondents engaging in RTP activities weekly. This reflects a growing trust in digital transactions across the nation, reported Bangkok Post. Despite these advancements, household debt levels and limited access to credit facilities mean debit cards still play a crucial role in many Thai consumers' digital payment landscapes. Visa intends to bridge these gaps while reinforcing card security for the future. TOP Picture courtesy: Sanook -- 2024-10-05 -

Melania Trump Praises Donald Trump in Rare TV Interview With Fox
He likely offered her a million dollars to do an interview. It's been a very, very long time since the former first lady has said anything nice about her husband, and one can certainly understand where she's coming from. -

Corruption scandal hits the brakes: Thailand’s bus industry whistleblows dirty dealings
Corruption can be a rather heinous thing on a lot of levels, but when it's allowed to seep into areas of traffic safety, public safety and transport, that is where it drops to a depth that is unfathomable. The top officials in the land transport department should be held accountable for this, and losing their job would not be enough. I would suggest to 5 to 10 year prison term for a negligent homicide would be appropriate, it would certainly send a message, and not this kind of message: Paying 3,000 to 4,000 baht would hasten the process slightly while paying more would be considered as VIP treatment.- 1
