Popular Post ikke1959 Posted October 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2022 There are people who are the richest in the world and a top Government who will earn too much for what they do, but nobody cares about the common people. Only more holidays to spend more to boost the economy( read their pockets) instead of real solutions to solve debts, gambling, education lack, roadsafety and floodings. Start with register all people where they really live and what they do, so if there is need you can help the right people. But now people living in the province but really staying and working in Bangkok makes things difficult to check. 13 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jonclark Posted October 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2022 What a lot alot of expats often forget is that many, many people here not only have to support themselves with daily expenses, but also have aging parents at home, who with the absence of any sort of welfare or pension are entirely dependent on their kids to support them. So a 300 baht daily wage is split many ways. Maybe if we walked a mile in their shoes we would have a better understanding of their lives. 41 3 8 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the US the same Kilogram of wings would be around 260 baht. Huge problem having two families own Tesco's, Big C, Makros, and 7/11.
