Does the left want Islam as the dominant religion in the west?
Having lived and worked in a strict islamic country for over 30 years all i can say is a lot of people in that faith are ticking timebombs. Ive seen easy going types switch to extreme after a few weeks of religious teaching. Ive watched westerners convert becoming strict islamists to the extent their security intelligence agency interviewed them multiple times on returning to their home country I cant see a sensible reason why western countries want to import these people and their values.

Pink Card
Took a few weeks to get my yellow book then a week after that for pink card as they had to order one in. I was only the 6th person in my amphur to get one and 1st that year. Yellow book accepted last year when renewing my drivers licence. Pink card is sometimes useful. Free entry into the Grand Palace. Thai price at some attractions like elephant village TaTum Surin Used it for I.D. passing security at airports Some hotels dont require passport if shown pink I.D.

Aussie Senate Fury: Pauline Hanson Sparks Outrage Wearing Burqa
As someone who's spent 30+ years living and working in strict islamic countries the burka has no place in Australia. Just look at places like Saudi where mutawas have had their powers reduced and see all the saudi women no longer wearing them. The same goes for flying. Burka wearing women soon change into western clothes once the aircraft takes off. It appears there are a higher percentage of strict islamists in Australia than in strict islamic countries. Time to clip their wings too.

Immigration - "New system"
Probably taken to show theyre doing their job. My Mrs is always taking pics when out inspecting or away on conferences. Most get posted on their work line group or like yesterdays special parade on her personal Facebook. Pics posted on the work line group are used as proof to auditors they performed the tasks.

Is the Underbelly of Thailand Getting Worse?
Im away from the tourist/expat scene nowadays. I remember back in 85 drinking with the aussie owner of a small beachside bar next to patong beach bungalows in phuket He left around lunchtime saying he was heading to bangkok for a flight home. Next morning the girls were all sad. He'd been caught drug smuggling on his way out at Don Mueang

How much would a solar system cost (ball-park estimate) for a modestly sized home?
I had my systems installed a few years ago and prices have changed a lot. Huawei battery costs up 150+% etc. I've found the more battery you have the lower your power bill will be. I've also found huawei will only accept huawei batteries. Other systems are more flexable. Another thing to take into account is your elec usage will increase as you relax due to free solar. Huawei techs recommended higher panel input. I have 14.9kw panels feeding the 10kw inverters and 7.5kw panels feeding the 5kw system. My 10kw system is in a combined commercial/residential building with a daily usage 50kwh upwards. The battery is usually down to its minimum 20% around 2000 hrs. The 5kw system is a commercial building open 0800 - 2000 daily. Daily usage varies around 30kw.
