How is the recent alcohol advertising ban working out?

 

Oh, never happened. Nevermind.

 

How about one of the many traffic crackdowns that were supposed to happen?

 

Oh, another no follow through.

 

How about Thailand's alternative to Facebook?

 

Ah, more hot air.

 

Thailand's new internet?

 

Nope. Also, hot air.

 

The migrant worker crackdown?

 

Anyone?

 

Porno and sex toy clean up in Bangkok?

 

Of course not.

 

Education reform?

 

More hot air.

 

It goes on and on and on and on. Thais love to get their name in the media talking about something, but have zero follow through. And thank the gods they don't!

Shrewd insight. It's an IQ/education thing.

I find it interesting that people on this forum malign Thais regarding their intelligence but they themselves apparently come from Australia and the USA- countries where academics and intellectuals are ridiculed and feared.

the developer of Pokemon Go! is American but, yes, they license from Nintendo but this game, the one we are talking about, is from the US

 

Hmmm. Ronald Reagan, Goerge W Bush, Barak Obama and Donald Trump are/were from the US too as I recall.

 

Not very encouraging. It seems the US does brain-dead pretty well so Pokemon Go should be a roaring success.

Really? I find that interesting too - if it's true. I'm just glad I don't hail from either place. Australia's OK, but the other place is the most hated country in the world. With good reason yeehah!.

They can ban some of the boring stuff but banning Pokemon completely might bring the uni students onto the streets.  They should try banning Facebook or Line and see what happens, revolution no doubt.

They can't ban Line, they (re)wrote it!
