Oh, no not another committee, that will have to be the umpteenth 

since Prayut said he would fix it 7 years ago.

Note that they are so certain of further failure that this study has been relegated to a sub-committee. Probably the same group responsible for enforcing helmet wearing by motor cyclists.

    The mobile ticket vendors, the ones walking the streets are the poorest of the poor.    I always pay what they ask, sometimes a little more.  They don't make a lot of money.

    Because that's what they have to pay to get a ticket if they want to enter the lottery!

And how many previous "Governments/Agencies have promised to "fix this" since the lottery started?

Why do people pay more than 80Bht? 

OK some people will pay more for a "special" number but why pay more for a standard strip?

it is NOT a strip it IS a ticket

And in the even that you win something you pay a percentage to a middleman who will claim it from lottery office. The entire system is set up to allow many people to profit from it. 

How about this to cut off the middleman. Give the vendors a mobile terminal with printer that can print tickets with the option of your input for choosing numbers or complete random. This would be similar to lottery machines set up at news agencies or the like elsewhere in the world. This way they can still roam around on their bikes or walk around but instead of carrying the chessboard thingy they’ll have a mobile terminal with them.
