In Thailand legal interests are 7 ½ % per annum, not 15 %.

Why would an group advocating the fantasy of man made aspect of global warming involve themselves in a matter of foul smells coming from a kitchen? Are they now demanding people stop cooking their food to decrease emissions?

Try to roast chilli in the oven not on open big wok. If it is health hazard to residents it must be hazardous to the prisoners too.

Every bit of news we read reflects the inaction by relevant authorities. It's pitiful. Nobody has any pride in their work or diligence. Thailand sinks while someone thinks.

And what happens if they don't comply? Throw them in prison?
