Right-neither of them say a tree in the middle of the lake and they were traveling 50 mph I'm sure,which would have been fast enough to kill them.How absurd is that supposition.No life vest either.Very sad indeed.
Way off topic.

In Topic: Pheu Thai Calls For Probe On New BTS Skytrain Deal

It's a way of life-deal with it! It's not a problem-it is interwoven and will NEVER change.
Come again? Are you being deliberately ambiguous in your post so to avoid chastising?
Corruption IS a problem in Thailand. It's a problem anywhere in the world and that's a fact. Will me or other non amoral 'Westerners' (excuse me, but I don't know the correct prefix for amoral - if there even is one) change this with our opinions? Probably not. It's domestic matter which is no business of mine. Maybe this is your point?
Again, your post is about as clear as mud. My opinion of course.

Well, one of the most (only) efficient systems in Bangkok was sure to eventually attract the attention of Thailand's government. The BTS is a standard BOT mega-project in a developing country, and a successful one at that. Corruption in Thailand is an increasingly dire issue (I don't say problem because in Thailand, corruption is fundamentally how business is done, and the entire concept as a moral "negative" needs to be analyzed in amorally to be understood by Westerners who have been trained to think of it as automatically wrong). What Thais have failed to recognize is that this distorts economics, society, politics, everything. It cannot be perpetuated indefinitely without protracting Thailand's development indefinitely. Especially as other Southeast Asian countries show a greater predilection for law, order, and stability. Thailand will simply fail to attract those with a regional or global focus as opposed to a local one.
