News Forum - Thailand’s Tourism Authority reminds visitors of current anti-smoking laws
While Thailand, and especially Bangkok, is currently blanketed by PM2.5 pollution.............. You can escape a smoker and an e-cig smoke. How do you escape PM2.5? Maybe the ingenious TAT has an answer. -

As you say, corruption is endemic across much of Asia. It is unlikely to change until the people as a whole stop seeing it as a normal part of life (which does seem to be happening, even if it is only a very small rumbling at present) and until the offenders are actually seen to be punished - jail time and left penniless - rather than being shunted sideways and allowed to keep the proceeds because they "belong" to other family members.- 1

News Forum - Thailand’s Tourism Authority reminds visitors of current anti-smoking laws
I'd much rather sit near someone smoking an electronic cigarette, a nice cigar or the sweet smell of cannabis than have to put up with and inhale disgusting stink of cigarette smoke that's damaging my health, I can't believe so many European visitors still smoke with all the knowledge available, you can smell them a mile off even when they're not chuffing away. So get with it governments and give us non smokers a break. -

Dom is correct. it's endemic throughout most of Asia, probably worse in certain countries. A $3m yacht I was taking through Indonesia was held in Kupang on demand of an "import Bond" amounting to ~$10,000. This, despite being Australian Registered and with all documents in order. 3 days of negotiations got "bribe" down to $1,000 and I learned later they'd pulled the same scam on the Darwin to Ambon race yachts. Fortunately, Thailand does have some very good people in positions of power. ie Big Joke, who are slowly exposing the criminally corrupt and young folk are not shy about helping via social media. The coming election period will be interesting as there will be a few major upsets for the current regime of rip off merchants. One can only hope that change comes for the better.
