Iran sends deadly message to Biden with Hamas attack on Israel
Worse is that Joe Biden no longer enforces sanctions against Iran; their oil sales went from less than 500,000 barrels a day to over 3,000,000 barrels a day since Joe took offices. Iran is flush with money these days.

Too bad GSP doesn't apply to USA wine. I'd like an affordable bottle of two buck chuck or even Sutter Home. A ten dollar bottle of wine costs thirty or more bucks in Thailand. The GSP is all one way as I see it. A bribe to Thailand that gets nothing for the USA.

MPs Urged To Probe Srettha’s 30-Million-Baht Chartered Flight To US
The seating arrangements for those 50 will be interesting; there aren't 50 seats in first class. Plus I'd expect some of the 50 have a wife going with them. Not all that expensive to go and return.

How to get my money to Thailand
My Social Security is direct deposit into Bangkok Bank Routing Number 026008691 of Bangkok Bank's branch in New York . They forward into my Bangkok savings account where I withdraw using ATM or online bill paying. I even transfer some from Bangkok Bank to K-Bank. Bangkok New York charges $5 off the top, then Bangkok bank charges .0025 baht per baht of what left. I think the exchange rate isn't far off an acceptable rate. I would not trust Schwab, they'll freeze or close your account if they think you live overseas.
