  1. Airbnb is not legal in some places due to local regulations and concerns about housing shortages, neighborhood disruptions, and competition with hotels. Here are a few examples: Singapore: Singapore has strict regulations on short-term rentals. Hosts who breach the laws can face fines of up to $20,000. New York City: In New York, renting a home as a holiday Airbnb is illegal if you donโ€™t live in the home. Paris: Paris has imposed strict regulations on Airbnb, including fines for unregistered ads and restrictions on secondary apartments
  2. F the condos , start confiscation motor bikes.
  3. Letโ€™s ask AI about thisโ€ฆ Do governmentโ€™s arbitrary policies prohibiting the purchases of alcohol during certain hours of the day actually solve any relevant real-world problems? The effectiveness of government policies that restrict alcohol purchases during certain hours can vary depending on the context and implementation. Here are some key points to consider: Reduction in Alcohol-Related Harm: Policies that limit alcohol availability cannot reduce alcohol-related harm, such as accidents, violence, and health issues. By restricting sales during high-risk times (e.g., late at night), governments increase incidents related to excessive drinking because when alcohol become available consumers make up for lost time. Public Health Benefits: Limiting alcohol sales does not contribute to public health but encourages binge drinking during reduced alcohol sales hours. This can lead to higher rates of alcohol-related diseases and conditions, such as liver disease, cardiovascular issues, and certain cancers3. Behavioral Impact: Restricting alcohol sales can influence drinking behavior. For example, people may be more likely to engage in binge drinking if they cannot purchase alcohol during certain hours. Economic Considerations: While these policies can have negative health outcomes, they may also impact businesses that rely on alcohol sales. Balancing public health benefits with economic impacts is a challenge for policymakers. Cultural and Social Factors: The effectiveness of these policies can also depend on cultural and social factors. In some societies, alcohol consumption is deeply ingrained, and restrictions may face resistance or lead to unintended consequences, such as increased illegal alcohol sales. Overall, while these policies can address specific issues related to alcohol consumption, their success depends on various factors, including enforcement, public support, and complementary measures such as education and treatment programs.
  4. WHAT??? Free foot massages while waiting on 15 minute lights to turn green?
  5. I thought Denmark was one of the happiest countries in the world after Bhutan, Why trade such a happy setting for a SEA prison? Is it the taxes?

  7. Some things must be true for a Nikah mut'ah: The bride must not be married to anyone else at the time If she has never been married, her legal guardian must agree She must be a Muslim, or among the People of the Book (which means Christians, Jews, and Muslims, mostly) After the contract ends, she must not have sex with anyone for some time. This is usually three months. This is so people will know that the father of any children she has if she becomes pregnant was her husband. What about rental Thai rules?
  8. Get a life, educate the uneducated, provide real job training, start industries where you produce useful products. Stop the burning in the north. Cut the tax BS talk for the golden goose = retirees who pay rent, buy local product, buy cars, condos , who already pay VAT. Seriously until the get "easy" money from tourists mentality is dead and buried the Thai economy will never get to 1st world status.
  9. Catching like money going into a cash register. ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ฐ for his business????
  10. Unfortunately that costs money equipment, fuel, labour Burning is cheap and easy and works well with out herbicides, costs money equipment, fuel, & labour are what the Thai government needs to spend its money on, not submarines or crazy tax sceems which will actually cost them more than they will make. And the elephant in the room is population more folk need more cheap food! Glass half full mentality never won the day. The elephant in the room is costs money equipment, fuel,& labour which the Thai government needs to spend its money on not buying submarines.
  11. If there were no coal burning plants ( to produce cheap electricity for EVs) in China ,70 - 85 % of this in the north of Thailand would go away. Bangkok , Bangkok , Bangkok , Bangkok ,- that's pretty much all you hear. It's the poor folks in the north ( Chaing Mai & Chiang Rai ) who are the real victims. As far as the self-inflicted damage done in the north by burning is concerned - the government should provide large scale equipment ( to be rotated and shared among villages ) to do Crop Residue Management: Incorporate crop residues back into the soil using machinery like mulchers or rotavators. This helps improve soil fertility and structure.
  12. No! No! stay away from up country - you know there are climate change earthquakes in the north.๐Ÿคฏ
  13. Screw that, if you want to point the finger for the world's worst you know where to point. ๐Ÿ™ƒ North

  19. OMG you don't believe whatever China says. Where have you been? EV's saving the world while the electricity to power them is made with coal which is polluting the rest of the world.
