Singapore has a bunch of iPads at the writing desks before immigration where people used to fill in arrival cards by pens, but admittedly it was far faster to fill out paper card than going through a bunch of pages of form that looked much like a visa application. When completed I was asking staff there how to get proof I filled it out and was told to take a photo of confirmation page. At the immigration officer's station I could see my information just typed in appear on his screen. This was my first time there after COVID when I was unaware of this change. The plus side of it of course (had I known about it prior to the flight) would have been filling that form at home and saving myself time and trouble at arrival. In SG, that form needs to be filled out by every tourist, but unsure about Singaporeans (unlikely) or their permanent residents (also unlikely).

Where's MAGA crowd to defend this one?

By using one of these:

Maybe along these lines:

Need to add: 6. Grand Healthy Lifestyle: Offering exclusive opportunities to get lung cancer in record time

Basically. It's not worth arguing with an idiot.

There was so much poor working class in attendance at his inauguration... Look at all these poor sods...

Isn't that the job for US customs, or do you want to outsource it to foreigners?

Something similar but way cheaper is CGM from Ottai. I'll put link below, but main thing is that it connects to your phone (no reader needed, but they have a watch for people who don't want to connect them to their phone), it reads every 5 minutes, has 30 minutes warm up time, lasts 14 days and costs below 1000 baht. A 1 piece sensor like Libra, just no yogurt cup assembly needed before installation. In their app, there's "average level" and from looking at what it showed in there vs test done in hospital, it was within 0.1 margin a few times now. Hence CGM, costing below 2000 baht/month for 2 sensors, could well give you what you're looking for, and on top of that, show you real-time glucose level (it's very close to blood check), has a little bubble that can show all the time on phone screen, compares with previous days, allows you to enter meals and exercise to make sense of how your body reacts to it, etc. Below is a kit of 2 sensors for 1 month. You'll just need an Android or Apple phone to install app from Playstore/Appstore. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/ottai-glucose-monitoring-set-2pcs-continuous-glucose-meter-no-finger-pricking-m8-cgm-monitoring-sensor-i5469004482-s23190036584.html

Not going to answer about your passport, but certainly wish to congratulate you for reaching such a respectable age. To many more years!

And yet you're the first to open the post and comment...

It's so refreshing to see all these new faces in Thai politics...

On the flip side, can US afford World's best and only 2nm foundry to become Chinese? That would put Silicon Valley in the position of Huawei under Trump 1.0.

Why would TSMC bother with Donald's demands? Intel's foundry sucks. Samsung is marginally better but incapable of producing the volumes it needs. AMD, nVidia, Qualcomm, Apple, etc. rely 100% on semiconductors from TSMC. If he slams the tariffs on them, he's only killing American companies. I say - let him do it.

On the flip side.... if you were Fox News, you could turn the table and say he's a winner, number 1, the alpha, the most disapproved President in American history! That's an amazing achievement.

No need for this. He already has a fake TIME cover with him on it hanging on the walls of 5 of his golf clubs... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-40427357

Put a gun on his head and force him to lick it up first!

Diversity is important when you are innovating or designing products and services, as diverse opinions and ideas give you a wider customer base, since those diverse people can share what would work for them. Air traffic control is probably not an area where you put diversity in front of experience and competence, though. But I would argue that, even if this happened, it would probably not be the sole reason. Covid's global travel shutdowns also had a lot to do with competences lost. Pilots, mechanics, ATC,... these people were out of work for years, doing other stuff. Mistakes seen after they returned, and all the way to now, at least some of them, also attribute to something lost during that time, procedures forgotten, routine stuff sidelined. Not arguing, just saying that there would be other reasons for dip in aviation safety, and that pandemic shutdown play a part.

Another crash in that river was Air Florida in 1982. Alas for different reasons.

Damn this is getting boring. Can someone open a new forum, called TrumpNow so you can go and argue over him there?

Yes, you steal 21 million, and get fine of 60,000.... unless there's another part where they have to return everything they've stolen? Hope there is. But if they don't have it (or it can't be proven they do)...?

An air traffic controller said, “PAT 2-5 do you have the CRJ in sight?” The controller then said, “PAT 2-5 pass behind the CRJ.” The audio then captured audible gasps, including a loud “oooh” in the background apparently from the tower, at the moment of the crash. The tower then alerted another pilot of what has taken place. “I don’t know if you caught earlier what happened, but there was a collision on the approach end of 3-3. We are going to be shutting down operations for the indefinite future if you want to go back to the gate. Highly suggest you guys coordinate with the company. Let me know what you want to do,” the controller says, referencing runway 33.

Because they don't want to have banking licenses revoked?

No, you won't. And not your friend's girlfriend either, not until you have shown significant revenue, and hired at least 4 (or is it 7) Thai employees. Until then you are not going to get a work permit, not for you nor the Laos national. So of all 3 of you, only your girlfriend is allowed to work.

Maybe as first step until you work it out:
