PHUKET: -- The signing of what is being hailed as Thailand’s first anti-bribery Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) drew more than 120 people to Phuket Provincial Hall meeting room yesterday (June 27). Office of Public Sector Anti-Corruption Commission (PACC) Secretary-General Prayong Priyajit along with Phuket Governor Norraphat Plodthong signed the MoU to facilitate citizens in accessing government services and reducing the opportunity for corruption in order to drive Phuket’s government to a “Smart Government”. The MoU supports the Licensing Facilitation Act of Thailand, issued in 2015, which requires government offices to disclose the procedures, requirements and deadlines for the granting of all licenses, permits, registrations and notifications by government offices that are required prior to establishment and operation of a business.

If so maybe somebody should start booking them Lol because most i see dont wear helmets I think the guy in the picture is helping the cop write the ticket out because usually they just stick the money in their pockets with no tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4MyEgo Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 I will believe it when I see new footpaths that replace the same ones that I have seen since 2006, pot holes, no ramps and narrow, where you can't walk side by side without pushing people of the footpaths, let alone push a stroller along without almost emptying your kid head 1st onto the road.
