The monkey and dog population has needed "fixing" for decades (been coming her since 1993, now living here.). Sadly, government is seemingly impotent and too busy buying toys of war.

Shabu shop hits back with defamation threat against complaining customer
Benmart replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Gluttony is easily remedied by taking smaller portions, eating it and returning if still hungry. Sadly, the customer(s) in question may not subscribe to that tactic and if a fine is posted concerning waste, then buyer beware. -

Some ugly comments from equally ugly people. The Russians I know are very like much me, peaceful, compassionate and honest.; universally hating Putin and his corrupt regime.

Pavement problems in Bangkok are more than just disrepair
Benmart replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
Little will change due to corruption, greed and ignorance. There is usually fanfare when something new goes up, but when the cameras and crowds are gone and time rolls on, the new object of worship falls into decay from the lack of simple maintenance. Sidewalks/footpaths are part of this this illusion, often being encroached upon by merchants, scooters or simply a case of falling apart. TAT should feature this mess in their advertising schemes. -
