He received a fatal gun shot wound and is likely to not survive.

According to the headline he was murdered and then killed. Accuracy is very important in good reporting.

He is obviously a very good actor. He has them all enthralled.

Oh stop that nonsense.

Are you totally clueless?

As if cold-blooded murder wasn't a common occurrence worldwide.

These mindless and repetitive accusations of ​Thainess ​are making farangs look like village idiots.

Why is it that So many murders in Thailand result in fatal death.

Here is an off the wall guess: less than 10 percent of Thai small business (defined as having less than 10 employees) make a profit as would be defined using international accounting practices. To make a profit one has to know first how to calculate the gross profit, the cost of inputs, then the operating profit, the cost of making what you are selling. I have yet to meet a Thai that understands these basics.

That being said, most Thais start businesses to eat; it is purely a subsistence enterprise and is done because they cannot get a job. This is especially true for Thai women who, after the age of 30 or 35 and lacking a professional degree, are locked out of the job market. The most impactful thing the government could sponsor is knowledgeable assistance in starting up these micro businesses.
