Healthy 1 year old girl dies of multi seizures less than 12 hours after receiving 6 vaccines
I am pro vaccination, and I do recognise that their will always be some people that are allergic to, or will have adverse reactions to some vaccines. But I too would be nervous about giving so many vaccinations at one time to a child. The body has to fight, and build immunity to each shot. So many at one time seems a lot to ask of the immune system.

Advice - Comments – Thoughts on ISPs
I am happy with 3BB. When I last went to their shop, it seems they were still offering their same packages. I have the 1Gb/500Mb. Around THB 750/ month if I recall correctly. I paid one year up front which gets 7% or 8% discount when I renewed late last year. I noticed that they now have newer WiFi 6 routers. Mine is WiFi 5.

Trump Signals Possible Easing of China Tariffs Ahead of Pivotal Trade Talks
The tariffs are here to stay. No way they can be removed if Trump expects to re-shore US manufacturing. Anything made in the US will be more expensive, and tariffs will be needed to make them competitive against foreign imports. If Trump's first term China tariff negotiations are anything to go by, these upcoming ones will take months, if not years, and Trump's tendency to offend the Chinese could still put things right back to square one at any time. Any future deals he might sign will not be worth the paper they will be written on. Trump's word is certainly not his bond.

President Trump ... accuses court system of blocking him from doing his job
No one is stopping him. The Courts are telling him he has to follow due process. This is just a way for Trump to try and remove the equality of the other branches of state and bring them under his control.

Trump Hails 'Full and Comprehensive' Trade Deal with UK Amid Modest Economic Expectations
If Starmer shafts the British people, which I suspect he will do, by letting in US Chlorinated Chicken, hormone laced beef and GM plant foods, I hope the people do a Canadian style boycott and refuse to buy or eat it. Let US farmers improve their standards if they want to sell to other countries.

Money grab at Fisherman's?
There are a couple of plots of land along there that charge THB100 for cars. Used to be THB20. Someone is raking it in.

Disabled Australian Tourist Robbed in Pattaya Hotel by Woman He Met on Beach
Silly old fool. Takes a stranger back to his hotel room, then proceeds to take a shower while leaving all his valuables unattended in her presence. I would have bet money on what would happen. Led by the wrong head. Even at 65. Still. Lesson learned. I bet he won't do that again.

Israeli Tourist Sparks Outrage Over Shoe Rule Dispute in Thailand
Removing shoes when entering a shop or café used to be much more prevalent. Nowadays many don't seem to mind. They even stopped it at Samui Immigration in the last year or two, but many places still have signs asking that customers remove shoes, especially if they have polished wooden floors. I also find many pharmacies still request shoe removal. I actually think it is a good thing, and we all do it at home. If the café owner gave her permission, then no problem, but it really isn't a big deal to kick off one's footwear. Perhaps she had a reason to not want to do it.

Cannabis Dispensaries in Koh Samui - Top 10
They are doing the 7-11 trick now. I,e. Opening opposite or just along from each other. Just after the legalisation law, my daughter counted 18 on Chaweng Beach Road alone. I bet many more along there now. It’s crazy.

Transgender Swimmer Ana Caldas Sweeps Five Events at National Meet, Sparks Backlash
Transgenders should be banned from women's sport due to their unfair strength advantages. The only way to get around this to maybe satisfy the woke and remoove that physical advantage, would be to have extra gender competitions / races for trans women and trans men. Let trans women compete against only other trans women. Take away his hormone supplements for a month or two, then tell me it is still a woman.

Dramatic Skid: Air Force C-130 Veers Off Samui Runway
It will probably just be parked up in some far corner of the airport and left to rot. Isn't there still a Bangkok Airways plane parked up there that was damaged a couple of years ago? Or have they repaired it yet?
