Good question - why don't you ask the same question of the counties that stood up to Hitler in the 1930s?

Idiots - those powerful hoses could kill people or cause permanent disability.

TAT uses a highly sophisticated algorithm (based on quantum theory) and input random numbers to generate the above estimates.

It is not just Britain, it is happening in many developed and developing countries, including Thailand and it's neighbours.

In short, no. The USA has been restricting China's rise with the help of friends and allies; but now that Trump has declared war on the USA's friends and allies ....

Welcome to Fascist America, becoming more like Hitler's Germany; seems Aryan Nations has control of the White House, via Musk possibly?

Yet again, more Chinese criminals discovered in Thailand. When will the Thai government get the message? But maybe they know already, the big Chinese-Thai businesses which own the government "involved" in this "affair"?

Your move Trump! Bomb China back to the Stone Age, as was proposed for Viet Nam in the late 1960s? Well will the village idiots in the White House and the MAGA morons realise that we live in an age of economic globalisation and planetary inter-connectivity? All the countries which produce and/or have large reserves of rare earths have been hit with massive USA tariffs, even Australia which has a large trade DEFICIT with the USA!!! In the words of the immortal Forrest Gump "Stupid is, stupid does".

One day Thais will wake up and realise that China is involved in a slow process of colonisation and exploitation of Thailand, at times with the assistance of local elite Chinese-Thai businesses and criminal elements.

Surprised not. It has obviously taken some time for Trump's Silicon Valley billionaire friends to convince him of the adverse impact of his tariffs on their global business empires.

The apparent exponential growth in ignorance is surprising.

1) Many Thais and Thai scholars have been researching "this" topic for decades. 2) Dr Chambers has been in Thailand since 1993; his Thai wife is a Faculty Dean at his university. 3) Dr Chambers and similar scholars have been very careful in what they publicly communicate in order to avoid "conflict" with the authorities.

Agreed Biggsy ... and ISEAS Singapore have admitted their mistake, but this is Thailand. Unfortunately, there appears to have been an upturn in of un/mis-imformed posts here ... one just has to look at the various Thai tax fora on AN. Regretfully, the Trump Virus has spread to AN.

If Thailand is not safe, then why come? Thailand seems "full" of Chinese criminals - just see today's report of 2 Chinese nationals stealing from fellow passengers on a flight from Macau. Then there are all the Chinese scam and kidnapping gangs in Thailand, which have received wide publicity in the Chinese media. Make Thailand Again for Tourists - but that is a pipe dream with law non-enforcement in Thailand.

I note that this case is getting some "unwanted" international coverage, especially in the USA where Thailand is already not the flavour of the year.

Bangkok not in the top 10? With what Trump is doing to the USA, maybe some of the British wealthy will move there.

Really. And with thousands of US scientists now looking overseas for employment, the USA will sink further behind. I wonder how many of these scientists will end up working in China. Thank you Donald.

Joins the ranks of Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, etc.

Correct, he is a con man.

72% traveling!!! A good reason to stay at home for the week.

In other words, the Thai Prime Minister believes that Thailand can bribe, sorry, I mean buy, its way off the tariffs list?

We cannot have middle and working class people drinking coffee!!! More evidence that Trump has almost zero understanding of how the world functions.

Oh well, things will only get worse. Where is Thailand's intelligent political leadership - of course, in prison, in exile or bared from politics.

Just the beginning!!!

Great news!!! Will the USA's 900-odd billionaires continue to support Trump?
