I can't see how this affects me. My pension is paid into an Australian financial institution. I transfer funds periodically to Thailand via WISE.

Unless the Thai government is going to start taxing ALL transfers from foreign countries into Thailand, which would be an administrative nightmare.

It won't be an admin. nightmare for the Thai government, They'll make the banks do it...

I rather doubt the Thai police or attached agencies have a 'blacklist' (at a national level of a local level) except for foreigners convicted for overstay and not allowed back for a fixed period (1 yr, 3 yrs etc), foreigners convicted of serious criminal offenses, selling / distributing drugs etc. In such cases perhaps there are blacklists maintained by various courts for specific types of charges. 

 

Further, if there is such a 'blacklist' the cops would be unlikely to add names without some solid proof.

 

Either ignore the girl or challenge her: tell her that you checked and there is no blacklist, and tell her she doesn't have and evidence that the police would accept and tell her this is the last message / no further discussion and you will now immediately delete her from all your contacts / friends lists etc.

"and tell her this is the last message / no further discussion and you will now immediately delete her from all your contacts / friends lists etc."

Don't bother telling her, just do it...

Where is the rat bastard? What I think is really weak is that NO Thai newspaper has the gonads to do some investigative journalism on this murderer and uncover where he lives and what he's doing. Shouldn't be that hard to track him down.

The topic of "everything" is a vast and complex one that encompasses the entirety of existence, knowledge, and experience. It's a philosophical and metaphysical concept that has been explored by thinkers, scientists, and scholars throughout history. Here are some aspects and perspectives related to the topic of everything:

1. Existence and Reality: When we talk about "everything," we refer to the totality of existence and reality. This includes the universe, all matter and energy, and any potential parallel or alternate realities.
2. Philosophical Considerations: Philosophers have pondered questions related to everything for centuries. What is the nature of reality? What is the purpose of existence? Is there a meaning to everything, or is it all random?
3. Cosmology: In the field of cosmology, scientists study the origin, evolution, and eventual fate of the universe. Understanding the universe is an attempt to comprehend a significant part of "everything."
4. Metaphysics: Metaphysics deals with questions about the fundamental nature of reality, including the existence of abstract entities, the nature of time, and the concept of causality.
5. Quantum Mechanics: In the realm of quantum physics, scientists delve into the behavior of subatomic particles, revealing a bizarre and complex world that challenges our understanding of reality.
6. Religion and Spirituality: Many religious and spiritual traditions offer their own interpretations of everything, often positing the existence of a higher power or ultimate reality.
7. Consciousness: The study of consciousness is a fundamental aspect of understanding everything. It involves exploring the nature of subjective experience, self-awareness, and the mind's relationship to the physical world.
8. Information Theory: Information theory deals with the quantification of information, which is a fundamental aspect of everything. It explores concepts like entropy, data, and communication.
9. Multiverse Hypotheses: Some theories in physics propose the existence of multiple universes or a multiverse, expanding the scope of "everything" beyond our observable universe.
10. Ethical and Moral Considerations: Discussions about everything often touch on ethics and morality. Questions about right and wrong, good and evil, and the purpose of human existence are central to this aspect.
11. Art and Creativity: Artists and creators often explore the concept of everything through their work, expressing the human experience and the mysteries of existence in various forms.
12. Technology and AI: As technology advances, artificial intelligence and machine learning are attempting to simulate human intelligence and understanding, contributing to our exploration of everything.
13. Interconnectedness: Many philosophical and scientific perspectives highlight the interconnectedness of all things, emphasizing how everything is interdependent and part of a larger whole.

In summary, the topic of "everything" is a multifaceted and profound concept that touches on nearly every field of human inquiry, from philosophy and science to spirituality and the arts. It represents our quest to understand the nature of existence, reality, and the universe itself.

Thailand is a hopelessly corrupt country where English competency is severely lacking. I do not see this changing any time soon. No reason for foreign companies to build and invest in a perfidious country with a lack of law enforcement and ethics.

The main problem is, and I've not seen it mentioned yet is that by saying that it's FB sponsored, it's giving the advert a false aura of authenticity to a easily taken in by that sort of thing, general public.
