All anyone needs to know about the NBTC is that of its 11 members, six are from the Royal Thai Armed Forces.

I cannot take the presidential debates seriously quite simply because it’s not a debate in the true sense
A debate should be a free exchange or words and ideas between two people
Not a glamour show where the contestants are asked a set of written questions which they already know
And only talk to the adjudicator and the camera not to each other
That sounds to me like free political advert rather than true discourse
Until each presidential candidate talk’s directly to each other on any subject without restrictions
Then it’s pretty much the final of a reality TV talent show not a presidential debate

It would be nice that all languages of the world converted to the same Roman alphabet because it is then would be much easier for us to learn foreign languages, or at least will be easier to understand each other.
And whatever happen to that universal language Esperanto, which is supposed to based on Spanish?

Charles, you're dumbing down culture, it's the same reason Esperanto never caught on, languages the world over are complex because of centuries of evolution, borrowing, and entrenchment of foreign spelling, English is one of the worst, yet the world is fine with learning it. Thai needs some reform but it's people are not reform minded, they're patient enough to learn all the exceptions, redundant consonants and pali inspired misspellings. Just try harder. The Bahasa is a Malay language for Malay people, over simplified at times and frankly, ugly.
