Unwarranted charge
Oped, Postbag, Published on 07/11/2020
» After reading the forward vision of Bank of Thailand governor, Sethaput Suthiwart-Narueput, a few of us are a bit concerned. Is this a pretext of what's to come? Case and point: the Thai Military Bank has decided to engage in an "excessive fee" (for any tourist, businessman, employer, employee or expat) when making a withdrawal from an international overseas account via an ATM machine.

A pointless wait
Oped, Postbag, Published on 30/09/2020
» Re: "Nida poll a wake-up call", (Editorial, Sept 29), I think if it is incumbent upon veteran politicians and Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha "to overhaul the system and show us democracy will be a long lasting solution for the country" we will be waiting a long, long time. In case you haven't noticed, this is a selfish, self-righteous group who think they are entitled to their power by virtue of their seniority/longevity and you'd best learn your place or leave this country. They have no intention of sharing their power with anyone but themselves and probably will be in power until they die.

Born to love noise
News, Postbag, Published on 04/06/2019
» Daniel Reid in his June 3 letter, "Kill noise monsters", is right. There is a department to deal with noise pollution. I found this office at the Bangkok City Hall about 15 or so years ago, tucked away in a corner, staffed by 10 people, all who were playing computer games when I walked in. I was there to file a noise complaint. None of the staff knew where to find the complaint forms to fill in. When a form was eventually produced, there was little enthusiasm for anyone to listen or help out. I finally went outside to find "someone in authority" to light a fire under these people. At least I got the ball rolling after a few hours that should have taken a few minutes.
