Field trips don’t hurt students, poorly-maintained transport does : PM
As others say poor enforcement of regulations and laws is an issue. As One who used to be involved building buses I am surprised legally that they are not required emergency exit doors at the back and small hammers to break windows in the event of emergency. I am sure Europe has similar requirements -

Thailand Embarks on Mega 2.68 Trillion Baht Transport Overhaul
Thailand's Ministry of Transport has unveiled an ambitious 2.68 trillion baht initiative aimed at radically transforming the nation's transportation landscape. The expansive project prioritises enhancing rail networks, upgrading key airports, and encouraging environmentally-friendly logistics practices, all with the goal of significantly reducing road congestion and cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 45.6 million tons by the year 2030. This falls in line with Thailand's obligations under the Paris Agreement, as outlined in their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) Action Plan for 2021–2030. Panya Chupanich, Director of the Office of Transport and Traffic Policy and Planning, highlighted the ministry's focus on public transport electrification. Plans are in place to introduce 3,100 electric buses on Bangkok streets by year's end, with an additional 1,520 to follow by 2025. Further, the ministry is set to extend Bangkok's electric train network to 554 kilometers by September 2025. This expansion will include a simplified ticketing system with a flat fare of 20 baht per ride, making travel more affordable and seamless for commuters. Major rail projects form the backbone of this initiative, including the expansion of double-track railways and the development of high-speed train links. Particularly noteworthy are the Bangkok–Nakhon Ratchasima high-speed rail and the three-airport high-speed rail project, which will provide streamlined connections between Don Mueang, Suvarnabhumi, and U-Tapao airports, reported NNT. Additionally, plans to introduce light rail transit systems will be implemented in regional hubs like Chiang Mai, Khon Kaen, and Phuket, improving urban transit in these growing areas. The logistics network will benefit from significant improvements, with 4,044 kilometers of double-track rail lines already completed and an additional 1,479 kilometers slated for construction by 2029.

Thailand’s Bold Move: Decriminalising Sex Work Sparks National Debate
In New Zealand it is only legal for New Zealand Citizens to work in the profession. Foreigners entering the Trade do so illegally. I would hope Thailand would enact similar laws and make the age of 18 as minimum -

Frozen in time: British expats losing out on pensions in Thailand
I think the poster meant a 3 year wait for routine, non critical treatment, not an emergency requiring an ambulance. I'm happy your father is back home. -

BREAKING NEWS IRAN ATTACKS ISRAEL
I consider the money and weapons the U.S. gives Israel as the best possible use of my taxpayer dollar. I'm very proud of the U.S. and Israel for defending Jewish people in a hostile world. For over 75 years, Israel has stood against Muslims and Arabs. Today, 7.4 million Israeli Jews have to contend with the hatred of 1.8 billion Muslims and 450 million Arabs. Those are pretty long odds, but Israelis literally have their backs to the sea. They have nowhere else to go. War crimes? For 2,000 years, Jews have been accused of everything from killing Christ to poisoning wells. spreading plagues and using the blood of kidnapped children to make matzah. Accusations of war crimes are simply the 21st century's equivalent of blood libel and ritual murder. The IDF do what they must to defend their country and people. Unfortunately. some non-combatants lose their lives, but that happens in every war. The solution is for every nation in the world to recognize Israel's right to exist as the homeland of the world's Jews. Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas have all called for the destruction of Israel and it's next to impossible to negotiate peace with entities sworn to your elimination.- 1
