johnc925 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
🇹🇭 Thailand's Average Tariffs on U.S. Imports WTO & MFN Data (2024–2025) 📌 Summary Comparison Thailand → U.S. - U.S. → Thailand High-Risk Sectors50–80% on cars, agro, textiles etc.Up to 36% for Thai goods after negotiations fail 🔍 Why Now?

Tourism Thailand Vows to End Dual Pricing Amid Growing Tourist Backlash
johnc925 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Golf courses are especially guilty of this... Thai residents get a discount, but not Farang residents (retiree/marriage), who, quite possibly contribute a bit more into the local economies... But, wasn't there legislation passed a few years back allowing dual pricing? I can see for tourist visas, but come on!!! -

Tourism Thailand Vows to End Dual Pricing Amid Growing Tourist Backlash
johnc925 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Good luck trying to get the Hospitals to accept that - they've been having a field day raising prices over the past few years. An appt that used to cost 1,200 baht is well over double now. Dumbest law they ever passed was allowing dual pricing to begin with. -

Everything in the ad should be included. So if there's a photo of the power connector then it's included. You can request to chat with the seller on Lazada just to clarify any questions.

I acquired a Lenovo PC mini, i7 with 8gb memory and 250tb disk (I upgraded these myself twice, now at 32gb/2tb). Around 4 years ago it was 6,500 THB used. I've been very happy with it and will now seek another used model with a built-in Thunderbolt interface, so I can use an external GPU for better processing. The advantage to this sized footprint, is I can pack it in my backpack, if ever needed, as it weighs 1.5kg. I can easily add up to three HDMI monitors, five USB connections.
