Analysis Weed Policy Backlash: Calls to Revamp Thai Cannabis Regulations
100% weed instead of booze. 100% weed if mental issues. 100% not for kids. 50% not for kids under 26 (brain forming). No driving on weed. Probably more pros than cons, but I don't smoke.....put the energy into banning cigs. hate the smell. -

Report Dutch Embassy Sale Sparks Debate in Bangkok
The latest election was in November 2023. It took a long time of negotiations to form a government, which was finally installed on July 2 last year. Other than cutting budgets and quarreling endlessly, they accomplished very little to nothing. On June 5, the leader of the biggest party pulled the plug. New election will be at the end of October this year. -

Report Filipinos and Children Repatriated from Dubai Amid Middle East Conflict
Picture courtesy of Manila Bulletin In a significant humanitarian effort, the national government has successfully repatriated 20 Filipinos and 23 children who were stranded in Dubai due to escalating tensions between Israel and Iran. The ongoing conflict has led to disruptions in air travel across major airports in the Middle East. On Tuesday morning, 17th June, the returnees were warmly welcomed at Ninoy Aquino International Airport by DMW Secretary Hans Leo Cacdac and OWWA Administrator Patricia Yvonne Caunan. The group had initially planned to travel to Jordan, but their journey was halted as airport closures ensued in response to the conflict. The Department of Migrant Workers, in close cooperation with the Department of Foreign Affairs, acted swiftly to coordinate the repatriation process. This involved logistical planning and diplomatic efforts to ensure the safety and timely return of the stranded Filipinos and their families. Secretary Cacdac commended the collaborative efforts, highlighting the importance of international cooperation in times of crisis. The successful repatriation underscores the government's dedication to the welfare of overseas Filipino workers, particularly during periods of regional instability and uncertainty. The returnees expressed relief and gratitude for the government's timely intervention, allowing them to finally reach home after an anxious and uncertain period abroad. This operation marks a continued commitment to protecting the Filipino diaspora amidst global challenges. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Manila Bulletin 2025-06-17 -

I take care family. Are bargirls really good mothers?
Not funny, but I wonder if they understand themselves how bad it is. There is people memorizing their first pink glasses once back in the day, and can’t find a replacement, or they got so burnt by the one, first and only, and do not heal -

I take care family. Are bargirls really good mothers?
Good mom, bad mom—what choice do they really have? Staying at the village, spending time with the kids but maybe not having enough money to buy them school uniforms? Or better to leave the kids with the grandparents and go to a big city to earn money and support the whole family? Who wants to be the judge of that? What sense does it make to look at it from a Western point of view? The biological fathers—Thai ex-boyfriend or ex-husbands—normally don’t give a flying f*** and don’t provide. I’ve observed for many years a case in my wife’s family. A nice, now middle-aged lady, just not very lucky with her relationships. Two kids from different Thai-ex-husbands. She got solid education compared to many other girls in this area; finished college and got proper job training in IT and accounting. Always tried to provide by working hard and earning honest money. As she’s getting older, it’s becoming more difficult to find work in a small town. She was basically forced to move to Bangkok to make enough money for her kids and her old mom. She is able to send home around 10k per month. Everyone speaks highly of her; for the family and neighbors, she’s a shining role model of a good daughter … and mom. Don't think it would change anything if indeed she would work in a bar. Well , maybe she could send more money then...
