But what I dont know is if they would have issued a licence if I had not had my Thai ID card

Yes foreigners can also get a Thai drivers licence..no need for a Thai ID card which 99.9% of foreigners do not possess.

RTFM ?   You have given too little information to give you any other advice ...like make and model of the dash cam.

DAB+ Radio. Range?

Where in Thailand are you and which DAB radio did you buy ?

I tried to receive DAB broadcasts in Pattaya /Jomtien area with a RTLsdr  dongle  but had no success at all...I'm not even sure if they have DAB transmissions here ( from the Pattaya transmitter) and seem to been in a bit of a radio blind spot as even FM radio is quite bad.

10,000 baht fine.

 

Yes doesn't take many fines like that to make it totally uneconomical to sell..im sure certain premises are more targeted than others at certain times for various reasons.

Before the last coup there was very minimal adherence  to this law...now it  harder and harder for even the mom and pop shops to evade the persecution.  ☹️

They'll (we'll) always have some euros on hand and the old currencies are still valid valuta. It's  also in no government's interest to ban cash - even if they'd like to do it for obvious reasons.

It is totally in the governments interest to "ban" cash

they seek total control  over their (slaves)  citizens  and the cashless digital panopticon is the ultimate solution for them to achieve their evil objective....remember "you will own nothing and be happy"

Vladimir Putin's government is believed to be providing fake documents, transport and even military escorts to smuggling gangs ferrying migrants across the Channel. 

Do they really expect anyone to believe this BS propaganda ?

Britain is an island,  it supposedly has the "Royal Navy" protecting its waters  it should be very easy to repel the invaders in rubber dinghy's  and seeing as they can't even do that  then  what chance do they have against a Russian invasion ?...not that Russia would invade  but the war machine tries to stir up resentment and manufacture consent for a war with Russia..this is just part of the manufacturing process.

It's in the context of reducing CO₂ emissions.

ha ha  this little addition  yes reduce CO2 emissions by reducing the human population as if that makes it in any way different or acceptable.

He has said that 'vaccines' can be used to reduce the populattion.

And I think that he and his co conspiritors have done just that.

You might want to look up the video where he says that 'vaccines' can reduce the population and then think a bit about what it means.

Anybody out there using Usenet? Suggestions for a good one, please.

https://www.astraweb.com/

been going since "forever" must be doing something right..they carry most groups and have good retention..but still best to download while recent or bits start falling off the servers.

I haven't used Usenet for a long time but my Father and his friend still use astraweb  and still argue about how to combine and uncompress the RAR files
