Thai students well below global average in reading, science and maths: study
IN regards other thread concerning thai students...
https://forum.thaivisa.com/topic/113725 ... dVjCySw5nQ
A new study shows that Thai students are consistently underperforming in the classroom.
According to the 2018 OECD Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) report ─ which measures the ability of 15-year-olds in science, reading and mathematics, Thai students scored below the international average in all three categories.
Cambodia not listed;Regionally, only Indonesia and the Philippines performed worse than Thailand.
However, other ASEAN school systems including Malaysia, Brunei and Singapore all out performed Thailand.
Meanwhile, other Asian school systems featured heavily at the top of the rankings.
China was ranked in 1st place in all three categories, followed by Singapore, which ranked 2nd overall, Macao was in 3rd and Hong Kong in 4th.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

That's a pretty poor showing for Thailand.
It seems their pilots are not very well regarded. This article was taken from the aviation news thread here:

I see some schools in PP now have STEM as part of their curriculum. Kudos.
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

When shopping in Bangkok I was always surprised at how few Thais spoke English compared to people in service occupations in Phnom Penh.

Thais are to shy to speak english, even if they were English majors in school, for fear of making a mistake

Imagine if the US and UK came 5 places down from a tiny western European Island? LOL indeed. You should clean up your own shop before criticizing other ones.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
