Ambassadors don't change the world, they usually go with the status quo.

These guys got a nice stay and a night in Bangla- yep on the taxpayer.

If they were half serious they would have already issued travel warnings to Thailand, no more travel insurance. That's just about the only thing I can see that would get Bangkok's attention, but ... can't interfere with people's right to travel to foreign countries to get laid- especially theirs.

A start on cleaning up Phuket would be impeachment of the mayors.

What about following Chinas lead, and arresting, trying, and executing government officials found to be taking money for their own benefit? How long do you think this greedy behavior would continue once they started wasting officials on the lam? About a month?

China has PLENTY of corruption also! Those rare cases that the west reads about are a token gesutre to placate the loawai (farang)

Yes, but at least there is a rare case! Compared to here, where the Thai people have basically laid down, and completely surrendered to corruption, and all the pigs that participate daily. Total surrender. No fight. No resistance. Seemingly no desire to rid themselves of this pestilent plague.

Why would Thais get rid of corruption when a poll confirmed that 77% of people questioned on this subject "don't mind corruption if it benefits themselves"?
