I live in Phuket and can say there are plenty. Of course, in the major tourist areas you are going to see tourists, but look to the more residential parts and sometimes you think you've landed in PhuketGrad.
Maybe they do not feel welcome in the EU hotspots any more - or perhaps there are not many airlines able to fly to the Med from Russia.

Nothing to do with medical use at all... just vote persuasion.
Maybe so however it follows a trend in some more developed countries trying to stem drug crime.

Dr. Wittawat Rawiyotai at Bangkok Hospital. Speaks good English, professional. I have had 3 or 4 cystoscopies with him.
I agree - I see him routinely.

Fly anywhere at night and on take off & landing you can see all of the small homestead fires in addition to the fields.
Even the central reservations on some sections of dual carriage ways have scorched earth signs.

Laughable.....all those industrious Thais will be hard at work on their computer generating god knows what level of increased productivity. What's not to love about this plan?
Can move the buffalos indoors too.

The pollution is everywhere, even in your bedroom closet. Working from home does nothing.
Most of Thailand is on fire. One can easily find out whose land is burning. Arrest the owner and throw
him in jail for a long time. As for these useless politicians, I leave that to your imagination.
Tourists should stop coming here altogether until this cancer causing issue is fixed permanently.
The issue needs to be fixed across many borders not just in Thailand.

The irony here are those who choose to come and live here then futilely complain about it. At least in your home country you can become a politician and submit a productive complaint. Or even better yet leave during the smoky season and have no complaints. Or even worse just continue to complain about the smoke until it’s gone then find something else to complain about.
Okay for monied expats however how does the logic of non complaining help the residents of Thailand?

Pay farmers not to burn their fields and villages not to burn surrounding forests. It may not feel right to pay people to stop breaking the law, but I can think of no other practical solution.
How about holding the Village Head Men/Women accountable for any banned burning in their area of remit?

A minimum of respect and honesty towards visitors dictates that the Thai tourism industry informs about the extreme air pollution in the country.
I always thought it was common knowledge about pollution from burning across SE Asia.

Why even do that, just get down to Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang and select another pristine model before it rots into the ground? Why not a nice big Boeing B747 or an Airbus A380? Very nice planes and plenty of space for generals and cronies! Even better for humanitarian needs too!!!
At this time, does the Thai air force really need a "new" plane? An 18 year old airframe still has at least 12 years left of service at least.
Even bigger selection at UTP airport (U-Tapao)(Pattaya)

One of the reasons why I never get a re entry at the airport its so risky when you have a flight to catch. Easy to do at immigration and even easier if you get an agent to do it for an extra 200 baht at the same time as you get your extension of stay.
How much is the fee at immigration office ?

How much was the multiple re-entry fee at the airport?

If I ever had a one on one with the new governor, which will never happen, I would put pedestrian rights on the top of my list. Chiang Mai is NOT walking friendly , IMO.
Totally agree.

So does this mean the Thais will finally be told to stop masking because they're obviously not going to stop until someone tells them to.
Hang on a moment..................................Thais are not known for doing what they are told.

The story looks like the police left the money on the table not the vendor.
"They had arranged for a brown envelope stuffed with the cash."
Is it a sting or entrapment?
If they used the contractors cash it could be deemed to be evidence and held by the Police/Prosecutor until released by the Court which might take a good while.

TAT Expects Strong Summer Air Traffic This Year

Presumably the noisy Russians are renting or have bought property from quieter Thais - how inconsiderate.
