Thai Buddhism comes face to face with the emerging consumer culture as Buddhist Solace Corners open in shopping malls in Bangkok. I’ll challenge our resident expert Dr. Jim Wellington to explain the pros and cons of the move. Is this out-reach a new form of evangelism or a humble olive branch?

Also, is it your responsibility to know what the Thai sign says or is it the Thais responsibility to write them in your language?

Illegal street racing claims a victim, as a young police volunteer gets gunned down by a gang of motorcycle racers.

That would depend whether the Thai wants foreign tourists, business and money I would suppose...

In other words, does he need me to read the sign.

International standards for road travel should apply which include recognizeable signs for easy road travel including english names (phonetics) for thai locations.
