Thaiger Talk Quiz #138 - Food in Northern Thailand
Thank you and my apologies, I do appreciate the disputes and feedback. We're at the stage now where most of the quizzes being played are the older ones previously posted. The four days each quiz is "live" are a good chance to iron out any problems if there are any. Q2 - I'm sticking to my guns here, but I have changed one of the incorrect answers. The answer remains the same. No doubt whatsoever now. Q5 - Good point, especially considering a couple of popular dishes. I have subbed out the correct answer for another and kept the three incorrect answers the same. Also changed one word in the question. Should be no issues now. Thanks again, BH -

News Forum - Exploring the National Parks of Thailand
I love visiting the national parks - camping boating and trakkibg .However it's difficult not to come to the conclusion that they are a national disgrace. One of Thailand's greatest (and potentially greenest) national treasures, they are mismanaged and largely left to struggle through neglect by successive governments. Chronically underfunded, they are open to corruption - encroachment poaching and decimation of wildlife on all sides, these resources could like in other countries be money-spinners, a jewel in the crown of tourism, instead for the most part they are just a source of national shame -

News Forum - Ministry reveals 200 apps that steal your cash
I'm aware of what you referred to. I've not experimented with facial recognition (I suspect that an animated AI-generated image could easily fool the system), but it's just annoying to want to access your phone when fingers are wet (causing finger print recognition to fail). A backdoor via a pass-code to access the phone is fine as far as I'm concerned (as long as it's non-guessable and there are further obstacles ahead when it comes to abusing any illegitimate phone access). -

News Forum - Pop singer Justin Bieber sells song rights for a cool US $200 million
I beg to differ. There are 975 players in Major League Baseball Alone. Another 450 in the NBA, 1,696 in the NFL. There are hundreds of actors and singers. There are 832 players just in the World Cup Soccer Teams. So if you look at athletes you have Auto Racing, Football, Baseball, Soccer, Hockey, Tennis, Golf, Car Racing, Boxing, Rugby, and Cricket. So you literally have thousands of athletes and entertainers but only 500 Fortune 500 companies, ergo only the top 500 business people in the USA. Much more rare. -

News Forum - Bangkok, Songkhla, Chon Buri provinces to host 2025 Southeast Asian Games
Stick to ASEAN Rules (for now), and allow Cambodia have their say. Thailand should be more amicable in the partnerships. It is just a name and a sport. Who's who and what's what is just so agonisingly Western prerogative.
