"Court Issues Suspended Sentences in Tragic School-Bus Fire That Killed 23"

A provincial court handed suspended prison terms and fines to a bus garage owner, his daughter, and a driver over a bus fire that killed 23 students and teachers on a school trip. The owners were initially sentenced to eight years and heavy fines, later reduced due to guilty pleas. The driver also received a halved sentence, with a suspended term and reduced fine. All three were placed on probation instead of serving immediate jail time. The ruling has sparked debate over safety oversight and the use of modified gas-powered buses in Thailand.

And there you have the Thai legal system in one short article. 

They didn't even find a Burmese mechanic to sentence to death? This place is slipping.
