News Forum - Foreign tourist under investigation for free climbing in southern Thailand
Oh here we go again on damaging the reputation or image of the country. Just even mentioning that in itself as a penalty does more harm in negativity than anything else. I am sure if it is a well known spot for an animal habitat then it would not ever be touched. Like some places off of Phi Phi islands are a sure given. Seems these peopel put in a positon of power damage the image more as making it look like idiots are running the scene. -

News Forum - Thai activists warn that new hair guidelines will allow schools to be more strict
There is a serious misdirection here. Any school administrator that thinks physical or mental punishment is the answer to a well managed school should be fired immediately. Thai schools don't need more discipline, they need more education. Sure some kids are little monsters in our current society thanks to overindulgence and parents that believe spoiling their children beyond reason is good parenting. But if the education is engaging and the schools are well organized, classes can be managed effectively. I went to a presentation regarding Thai public schools and they presented a shocking fact. 70% of Thai schools were 30% below Thai standards. Nevermind international standards. The kids don't need haircuts they need books. If Thailand wants to get a seat at the big kids table they are going to have to start preparing the next generation for more than just labor work, leave the dictator style management to places South Korea -

News Forum - Five US police officers charged with murder over fatal beating of black man
I agree and should qualify my initial comments. I think there are many good police in my country also. My comments relate to the fact that for some, the authority and power they are effectively handed overnight, goes to their head. I don’t know what training they are given in how to deal with that authority and power. I’m sure part of police training deals with how to work with members of the public. However, when you think about a young 20 year old from a normal background, who is then suddenly handed the authority and power a police officer is given, for some it can be too much to handle. -

News Forum - Thai activists warn that new hair guidelines will allow schools to be more strict
Where did I say “western progress”? The examples I gave related to the U.K., but the progress on matters of road safety, freedom of speech etc are just as applicable in many Asian countries. I do believe the progress many western and Asian countries have made are good. They are certainly a lot better than the progress Thailand and many other SE Asian countries have made. -
