Is English being taught in the Thai schools?

[John Smith 777]

I could swear when I first came here 45 years ago, English was indeed being taught in the Thai schools
Now 45 years ago is a long time, so no doubt most of you are thinking that I must be fluent in Thai, and that therefore there is no case to answer for.
So I suppose that this subject box will now be hijacked, with all those thinking that this should be the case.
However when tourism makes up to 20% of the Thai GDP, you might think there might be an incentive to reap more, through being able to communicate with those bringing the money.
