Hello all, I'm in Thailand for a month with a German driver's license. Can I drive here using this, or do I need an international driving permit? The information online is conflicting. Thanks in advance.

Thailand’s CPI sees sixth consecutive monthly decrease
The CPI is not decreasing. If the inflation rate is positive, then CPI is increasing. It is increasing at a slower rate, but still increasing.

Farang's reputation for attacking Thai women in Thailand.
I was once at a "monk party" (a party for a young male becoming a monk) and witnessed a Thai male knock down a woman. I put him in a headlock. None of the other Thai men intervened. I found out later, the woman was his mother 😟

Wise, sending euros to buy condo, should I send by SWIFT so it is not converted in THB ?
Why did two people give confused emojis? Wise does offer better exchange rates than banks; that's its selling point. The exchange rate makes a big difference on a large sum of money.

The exchange rate is the problem. Wise would give a much better rate.

Thai visitors to Japan
Thanks a lot. Yes, I am concerned about all those things you mentioned too, but only asked about the visa on this forum. With regards to sim cards, I've started using eSims through an app called Airalo. It's really cheap and can be used in most countries. It's very convenient as you don't have to change your SIM card. I highly recommend it.

Thai visitors to Japan
Hello hive mind, My wife all of a sudden wants to travel to Japan with her daughter for 5 days. I know they officially don't need a visa, but is it like Korea where Thais often get denied entry despite a visa? Anyone have any experience with this? It would be her first solo trip, am I worrying too much?

Korean YouTubers’ visa status in Thailand under scrutiny
They're better than most. Other popular Thai YouTubers are really annoying; these guys seem pretty normal. They don't try to do things or act outrageous to get views, they're just hanging out doing normal things. The wife watches them all the time.

I've used one outdoor in arrivals, so they're there. Can't remember the floor, but I'm guessing the floor where you can get a taxi.
