Corruption scandal hits the brakes: Thailand’s bus industry whistleblows dirty dealings
If allegations are true, the entire National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) should immediately be fired and replacements selected by Parliament. Remember a few years ago ( post 2014) significant corruption in the Department of Education principals that was only identified by whistle-blowers? Not by any government agency. -

Post-Y2K BUG & The New American Bedlamism: Was America, historically, ever this crazy?
Dear Folks, As one who has been raptly viewing post turn-of-the-century American culture, I have been struck by at least three shocking transformations in American culture, and the Average American individual. 1. Dumbing down of movie fare 2. Deterioration in spoken and written English, as well as the general resorting to crude, demeaning and insulting English vocabulary directed at others 3. General Craziness and lack of judgment in everyday lives, including plenty more gun-play than has been seen since the days of the Wild West in cities like Tombstone and Dodge City. And, much of this gun play is now increasingly taking place, due to road rage situations, in every community around America. Therefore, the question is: Is it a reality that general craziness is markedly increasing in America? What are the causes? For example, is this due to the increased use of psychoactive drugs to treat childhood mental “illnesses” such as ADHD, etc, and depression in young adults as well as middle-aged Americans? Or, could this be due to the high sugar diet and obesity? Are overweight Americans more likely to engage in craziness than thin fit individtuals? Alternatively, might this increased American craziness be due to stressors brought on by crazy American government policies such as higher university tuition with no reasonable way to finance childrens higher education? Or, what about forced evictions from housing being bought up by large corporations, leaving the Average crazy American homeless, and completely frustrated with life? My guess is that one cause might be the changing education system, in which what is being taught no longer fosters introspection and clear thinking. And instead, education is being replaced and distorted by unrealistic views and expectations of what life actually is, and was pre-Y2K. In fact, I first began noticing this transition around the year 2000 when Holywood began producing movies that were pure fantasies with no well-written film scripts, and nothing to provoke the need to think deeply about any part of any film. Where are the real issues in movies today, now that all themes in Hollywood films are as superficial and fantastical as American News from MSNBC, and all the rest of the outlets. For sure, Americans are becoming ever-crazier, both in their behavior and in their warped thought processes, and also in their inability to control aberrant behavior. Americans are no longer grounded in the reality of what we once considered the Real World. It’s like Americans under the age of 55 are on a continuous LSD-induced ‘bad trip’, and cannot escape to the sunshine we once enjoyed pre-1970s in the United States. Maybe this is also due to the decision to close down mental health institutions and to push more and more crazies into the local communities. And, as a result, we may have been witnessing these crazies infecting more normal Americans, just due to rubbing up against them in during daily life. Yes, craziness seems to be fostering more craziness in America, and we can witness it while flying on commerical aircraft, or while getting shot up while sitting in a movie theatre. What ever happened to better venues such as the philharmonic where people would go to enjoy great music, without packing heat? And how much crazier can Americans get….before America implodes and becomes a total Failed-State? So many questions, but it will not be long, now, before we see the answers unfold before us ... .during the remaining years of this decade, which will probably be pivotal for the unlikely possibility of preserving organized human existence, past the year 2030. I am not worried, Mandrake. I leave the worrying to younger guys. Best regards, Gamma NOTE4: This may be the Y2K Bug at set off this Total Cascade of Craziness in America !!!!!!!! -

Chinese Tourist Fined 5,000 Baht for Filming Social Media Video Content in Flooded River
Chiang Mai — On October 3rd, 2024, Chiang Mai local media reported a Chinese man was seen floating in the strong currents of the Ping River near Nawarat Bridge in Chiang Mai, appearing relaxed as he filmed a video for social media. Despite the swift current, he seemed unbothered, causing concern among locals who witnessed the incident. A good Samaritan alerted authorities, and the Nakorn Ping Radio Center dispatched officers and rescue teams to assist. According to the Chiang Mai local media, they successfully rescued the Chinese man near Mengrai Bridge, after he had drifted 3-4 kilometers downstream. The man was publicly identified as Li Bin, a Chinese tourist. He was taken to Mueang Chiang Mai Police Station where officers from the Immigration Police charged him with “Causing a public nuisance and alarm.” By Kittisak Phalaharn Full story: THE PATTAYA NEWS -- 2024-10-05 -

Trump to remove legal immigrants.
Well this is irritating if true. Im currently waiting for citizenship for my wife who did things the legal way. If illegals are really being fast tracked then i guess everyone else is <deleted> out of luck. Naturalization costs 700 USD. i dont think many illegals have that -

Fire Kills 11 Cats 5 Others Injured, Owner Shocked by Fire in Room Where 29 Cats Were Kept
My thoughts too, why were they caged? As you point out, cats need to roam. Had they not been caged they had probably survived. It's more like animal abuse than caring for them.
