Thai Cabinet approves Space Affairs Act, promoting “New Space Economy” and space exploration in Thailand

[trainman34014]

So; Thai's will be able to explore Space and other Planets before thay have drinkable Tap Water or a decent Sewage System.   Do the people who run this country ever think about how f+++++g dumb they look to the rest of the World ?

has been operating in Thailand with investment from the government, and both Thai and foreign private companies.

I would imaging it takes an incredibly brave and long-minded investment foreigner to invest in a Thai Space Program. Pretty sure the investor and everybody - including me - on here will be dead way before any Thai made space rocket puts a man into space, and I'm just 57 !

Not my job to put drains in said the road department who had subcontracted the job out to Mr. Somchai, who on the day they paved was not available and had failed to box off the drain cover location.  Always gotta pass the buck to someone else It seems to be, or is it a way to make another days wages to fix the - Up

Uhmmm, "space", like all the empty office space? Like all the empty retail and business space from the closures? Space, like something the emergency wards of the hospitals have little and none of? Oh, outer space. Who'd a thunk in the middle of a pandemic. Submarine thinking, I suppose

Justin Trudeau and Prayut and some of the cabinet ministers must be related as we have the same thing in Canada. No drinkable tap water many places and sewage dumped into the St Lawrence river.

They should start with mandating more space in all those 25 sq Meter condos they are building in Bangkok.

I'm sure the Taxi and the Jet Ski Mafia will go up with the crew. They have to mark their spots lol 

What a waste of time and money. All my friends suffering in Issan and all over Thailand.
