(POORLY)...... He certainly must think that people believe 'his every word'......... Talk is cheap but if you really want results....

ubon farang Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 He might as well tell Humpty Dumpty not to drink drive. That is how much Thais will listen to him. I saw Thailands reaction today by setting up thoses tents with flashing lights beside the road. Inside the tent were about 30 cops all playing with their phones. Carry on folks business as usual. Can anyone in this forum please tell me what those tents with flashing lights are supposed to do? Very curious guy I am? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post metisdead Posted December 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 27, 2019 Please use discretion in your references to the government. Phrases which can be considered as anti-coup will be removed. Referring to Thailand or the government as a dictatorship, military dictatorship or other such terms will be removed. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This word being an adjective is often used to describe actions of politicians and governments. "...characterized by, expressive of, or causing sorrow or misery." "..very bad; deplorable." Of course, this wouldn't apply to the present administration in LOS, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tabarin Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 (edited) Well I have been trying to not drink and drive at all but since Grab fares went from 140B to 260B *one way* I can't help myself sometimes, when not having had that much. Tuk tuks wouldn't even drive me that far away. Can't imagine it to be affordable or doable for locals at all then. If drinking twice a week with the current fares I can earn the 15-20K bribe back in 4-5 months. Edited December 27, 2019 by tabarin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimamey Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 7 hours ago, Jimbo2014 said: Big hint Mr. PM. You have one of the largest police forces in the world per capita. Why not get them doing their jobs properly. Why not enforce laws so that we dont have to take knee jerk and silly actions at isolated times of the year. You could get them to enforce road laws all year around. Then when it comes to new year people may actually follow the law for fear of being fined or having their licence permanently removed. I know it sounds crazy but it works elsewhere. Give it a go! Instead of just bringing ideas like cars and motorbikes from outside Thailand why not bring the safety aspects as well such as helmets, seat belts and a proper driving test as well and then enforcing them. My wife works for a government department and in the last couple of days one of their drivers was killed in his own pickup. Fortunately he didn't kill anyone else. I've only spoken to her briefly form the UK but I think he'd been drinking and I know that's normal for him as it is for many others. A nice guy and such a waste. There are other more influential people than the PM who could push this message as well. Monks talk to Thais every day but from what I can tell from my wife they don't mention drink driving or the fact that it doesn't seem very Buddhist. People would stop listening I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThailandGuy Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 If severe punishments would be applied and more alcohol controls would take place then he would not have to beg at all. Thai people drink very much and still believe they can drive. I have seen it i dont know how many times. And if you take away the carkey they get really mad at you althought its for preventing them from doing something stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrunchWrapSupreme Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 A key piece of info missing from this report. The wife caught this on Channel 3 today: https://youtu.be/Jc3cOBGWRWw The PM later handed out gift bags at the Mo Chit station. One lady who received one was noticeably unimpressed. He asks her, "What's wrong? Are you bored of me?" She answers, "Bueh!" (Bored!) ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
