Phuket taxi driver hits foreign man on airport zebra crossing
Yes police negotiate as they don't want to have to do all the paperwork and then appear in court. It undermines the punishment needed to deter violations. Your court example is seldom if every successful even if you were to win. I don't believe pedestrians have the right if way everywhere, only at marked and designated crosswalks. Having the right of way does little to help if your tragically injured or killed. Collecting on penalties\fines is a whole other can of worms -

Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
Something strange happens in the region. Films and newspapers told us that people are running from NK to SK. But Z guys see that the population of NK is growing by several hundreds of thousands every year but the population of SK is reducing by the same amount. Looks like people are running from SK to live in the NK, right? I suggest that southern Koreans feel safer under the Kim`s nuclear umbrella. -

SBA Disaster Loan Program Runs Out of Funds Amid Hurricane Response
Of course it's the Republicans fault. Although didn't Congress supply FEMA with 20 billion? Seems like a lot. Did they spend it already? -

Tourist Bus Catches Fire in Pak Chong
i was on a train from ayutaya to bkk, we stopped on the outskirts of bkk, after about 20 mins people were just sitting there, no announcements, i decided to get off and have a look. a quick inspection of the front of the train highlighted the problem, the engine had gone. clearly we would be sitting there in ignorance for a while, so i grabbed my stuff and jumped in a passing taxi. -

A vote for Trump is a vote for Putin / Orban / Kim Jong Un
I note you don't disclaim your support for authoritarianism. Your post is somewhat more nuanced than you suggest: Obama’s White House approved other aid. In total, from 2014 to 2016, the United States committed more than $600 million in security assistance to Ukraine. Under Obama, the federal government started the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, which sent other kinds of U.S. military equipment to the country. From federal fiscal years 2016 to 2019, which overlap with Obama and Trump, Congress appropriated $850 million. Fact check: Did Trump send Ukraine weapons that Obama and Biden withheld? (wral.com) Russian mercenaries were killed in a defensive action by US forces. “The Russian high command in Syria assured us it was not their people,” defence secretary Jim Mattis told senators in testimony last month. He said he directed Gen Joseph F Dunford Jr, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, “for the force, then, to be annihilated.” “And it was.” The truth about the brutal four-hour battle between Russian mercenaries and US commandos in Syria | The Independent | The Independent Biden lifted sanctions on the Russian gas pipeline in support of energy for Germany / EU. Aggressive sanctions were later imposed e.g. FACT SHEET: Biden Administration Expands U.S. Sanctions Authorities to Target Financial Facilitators of Russia’s War Machine | The White House -

Pink I.D Card & Yellow Book
The difference was that when Mor Phrom was introduced it couldn't be used without a 13 digit code. Something that caused a great deal of consternation in the expat community. At the end of the day the yellow book has benefits that many are not aware of, yet quite prepared to claim there is no benefit. -

I don't know that I believe your story but you go with that. If that is what you do its pretty foolish and you will lose at your game at some point. -

Its Happening - Law to Tax Overseas Income Now in Progress
"If a Thai resident earns foreign-sourced income in 2024 and brings it into Thailand in the same year or any subsequent year, they will be subject to PIT on that income, regardless of whether they are resident in Thailand at the time". Using that interpretation, that means any tax resident is taxable on foreign sourced income, even if they are not tax resident.....say what!!! -

Kamala Harris Defends Policy Stance in Heated Fox News Interview
MSNBC 'Terrific performance': VP Harris shares her message with Fox News viewers Yep big success with this one with the message shared being basically "Me good." "Me not Biden" "Trump bad" I'm guessing actually answering simple questions put to her doesn't come within MSNBC's parameters of 'Terrific performance'. -
