New Rules Restrict Street Vending to Poor Thais Only
In a response that has stirred both applause and dissent, new regulations from Bangkok city officials state that only low-income Thais can now set up street vendor stalls. Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt signed the new rules, which exclude migrant workers from participating in one of the city’s most vibrant sectors. These controversial regulations, enacted by the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA), mandate that eligible vendors must be Thai nationals with specific economic standings. To qualify, vendors must possess government welfare cards, be paying off National Housing Authority properties, and receive welfare allowances from the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security. Crucially, their net income after business expenses must not exceed 300,000 baht annually. “This policy targets supporting low-income Thais and enhancing public spaces,” explained BMA spokesperson Aekvarunyoo Amrapala. Additional rules restrict each vendor to a single Thai assistant and impose rigorous adherence to public health standards. Vendors must also ensure pedestrian pathways remain clear, requiring between 1.5 to 2 metres of unobstructed walkway based on the street’s size, reported Thaiger. Further specifications state that stalls can measure no more than 3 square metres and must be positioned with a 50 centimetre gap from the road for safety. There must also be a 3-metre emergency exit gap for every 10 stalls, as reported by the Bangkok Post. These measures are set to be published in the Royal Gazette and will take effect soon after. In related developments, Governor Chadchart outlined plans to further regulate street vending. The aim is to monitor vendor income, enforce tax adherence, and eventually clear pavements of hawkers, making the environment more orderly. With both supporters and critics vocal about the new rules, the future of Bangkok's famed street vending culture hangs in the balance. TOP: File photo -- 2024-09-20 -

Now I'm getting older: I worry that my aging brain is making me feel crazy. (You too?)
I just want to tell you guys that.... CELIBACY is really.... The ONLY Way to Go....if you are seeking uncluttered happiness. a. I never need worry about wearing a Green Hat, which means being cuckolded. b. I never need worry about not being able to GET IT UP, which, obviously, is a non-issue for me, being COMPLETELY single. c. I am enjoying many other advantages of being celibate. And, there are just too many to share here with you...at the moment..... So, why not come over to MY side? Get with the program which will add years to your lives.....! Get celibate and flourish! ========== I am so Glad. I am Glad to be so glad to be celibate..... It's the best lifestyle for me.... And, probably, you, too, if your were more honest with yourselves.....! =========== The juxtaposition of two things felt in my mind, namely between being extremely attracted to this hottie in the Music Video and my commitment to celibacy is mind-blowing for me. But yet, I remain committed. -

Illegal Foreign Guide Assaults Chinese Tourist at Jewelry Store
When I first came to Thailand some scumbag had a table set up inside a wat near the enterance to get people to transport to a jewelry shop. He was acting like he was part of the monestary so you would listen to his scam. I wish the monks had done something about this. They should not be allowed to solicit inside the temple grounds. I still remember the guy wearing all this jewelry and the stupid smug grin he had. -

Whistleblower Testifies Titan Sub Tragedy Was 'Inevitable' Due to Ignored Safety Warnings
I wasn't paying attention to this event, but when watching them on the TV news tightening the bolts on that thing, knowing that the only way out would be via the same equipment, it dawned on me just how crazy this idea is. Then there was that guy and his son who were happy when someone cancelled out and they took their place. The Appointment in Samarra, As retold by W. Somerset Maugham [1933] The Speaker is Death There was a merchant in Bagdad who sent his servant to market to buy provisions and in a little while the servant came back, white and trembling, and said, Master, just now when I was in the marketplace I was jostled by a woman in the crowd and when I turned I saw it was Death that jostled me. She looked at me and made a threatening gesture; now, lend me your horse, and I will ride away from this city and avoid my fate. I will go to Samarra and there Death will not find me. The merchant lent him his horse, and the servant mounted it, and he dug his spurs in its flanks and as fast as the horse could gallop he went. Then the merchant went down to the marketplace and he saw me standing in the crowd and he came to me and said, Why did you make a threating getsture to my servant when you saw him this morning? That was not a threatening gesture, I said, it was only a start of surprise. I was astonished to see him in Bagdad, for I had an appointment with him tonight in Samarra.
