The Decline of Free Speech: How the UK Became a Third-Class Nation
And you are starting to sound like an egoistical - in the philosophical sense of the word - free speech zealot, who will not accept accountability or responsibility for the consequences of their words. -

Patong’s traffic issues persist due to private road ownership
Rubbish - as its used as a public thoroughfare it can be classified as a public thoroughfare and the road laws then apply. But of course, there is more to this story - those at the heart of the very decision to 'transfer the ownership' to the municipality are are also at the very heart of the municipality - driving the decision to buy the road, driving the resistance against selling the road... ultimately, driving up the price'... A child can see how predicable all this is... Just pedestrianise the whole thing !!! - but who is in charge of policing ? they very people involved in the first place - this is all just theatre... the level of corruption wholly transparent. -

Ratchamanu Task Force Rescues 39 Expatriates Trapped in Myanmar
Early this morning, a dramatic rescue operation unfolded as the Ratchamanu Task Force, stationed in Mae Sot district of Tak, rescued 39 individuals, the majority from Sri Lanka. The victims claimed they were trapped in Myanmar's Myawaddy, having been enticed there with illusory job guarantees. The task force swooped in at 5am, intercepting the victims as they attempted to cross the Moei River into the Mae Sot district. The rescue operation was authorised by the Sri Lankan Embassy in Thailand, reflecting the urgency of the situation. The group consisted of a diverse mix - 32 Sri Lankans, 5 Nepalese, 1 Malaysian and a Russian. They reported being ensnared by a Chinese-owned business in Myawaddy, with the verbal obligation, and subsequent reality, of their work conditions proving to be starkly contrasting. Once entrenched in Myanmar, they were coerced into extensive work hours. Unbearable as it was, the group reached out to their respective peers and the embassy for help. Their desperate plea led to the prompt intervention by the Ratchamanu Task Force. The exact region of their employment falls under the jurisdiction of the Democratic Karen Buddhist Army. This area is directly opposite Thailand’s Phop Phra district in the Tak province, hence the quick response by the Tak-based task force. This operation has shed light on the grim conditions of migrant workers and serves as a stern reminder of the exploitative labour practices some industries still partake in.
