radioman Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Yeah, that lack of planning does seem to pervade everything. I've noticed whenever we need to plan,pretty much anything that involves the future, there's a definite sense of anguish and discomfort. I suppose it's that Thai thing, the past is gone, the future is a secret, live only for now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 The buses in the 1980s were great for frotage. Being wedged between cute young university students was almost like getting a sandwich at the massage parlour. Alas, the buses are few and far between these days. It's a long wait between buses and nowhere near as crowded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drogon Posted May 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Got sandwiched once between 2 chula girls but will not tell how and how much it cost (yes I had to pay since I am not a super handsum man). Who, in his right mind, would dare take a bus in BKK these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cavanami Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 ALL foreigners to be tracked and monitored by Thai military A computer database is being developed to store information about foreigners to help authorities keep track of them while they are in Thailand, defence spokesman KongÂcheep Tantravanich admitted... http://bangkokjack.com/2018/05/17/foreigners-tracked-thai-military/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 No different than it already is to be honest, just consolidating all information into one Databse instead of being fragmented as it is a t present. When you enter / exit th country it is on immigration records, if on a long term visa need to give address and 90 day reporting, when stay in a hotel they take a copy of passport and are supposed to report to the authorities etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drogon Posted May 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Normal and logical thing to do for any state, just that if it is a Thai company doing the development as a contractor for the government then I can see a lot of bugs that will never get a fix -> because let's not lose face, this is not a bug........ or, the deadline for the Go/No go is on xx date, of course it will be a Go or else we lose face, no matter if there are currently 450 blocking/critical bugs.
