  1. Do your research. Wikipedia alone covers a substantial amount of history related to the history of the Kingdom of Patani. The decades Malay Muslim insurrection was due in part to a reaction to the Kingdom of Siam (Thailand) breaking its peace treaty with the sovereign nation of the Muslim Kingdom of Patani, forcing the annexation of Patani into the Thai Buddhist Kingdom and suppressing its language, religion, customs, traditions, etc. as second class citizens.
  2. No mention of meeting with the insurgent Malay Muslim organizations and to resolve a place plan. That's like going into a boxing ring having one fighter resolve peace with the referee. The other fighter is not invited into the ring.
  3. More of a "magic" plan than a master plan.
  4. Canadian Dollar wherein Canada will export its oil & gas anywhere now except to the US?
  5. BOI office (same floor as Immigration) - Chumchuri square18th Floor 254 Phaya Thai Rd, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330 Conveniently located near Samyan MRT station LTR Visa has a dedicated window in Immigration. Phone: 02 209 1100
  6. No different than some of J6 who POTUS pardoned.
  7. Police speculating without any thread of truth or fact. They never seem able to take a neutral position before beginning any investigation. Kind of a form of self-promotion.
  8. Started in earnest in 2013 with PM Yingluck but went proverbially "dead" with the Thai military's overthrow of the Yingluck government in May 2014.
  9. Go ahead and debate by the House. But ... Orders issued by the Head of the NCPO were under Section 44 of the interim Constitution. https://www.ilaw.or.th/articles/16556 Thus, the orders were Constitutional. So it would seem that if the House passes a bill to cancel/amend NCPO issued Orders, it will require review/approval by the Senate majority as a change to the Constitution. I believe the "new" Senate is still in control of the military as created originally by NCPO.
  10. https://www.tripadvisor.com/FAQ_Answers-g147313-d147782-t9633187-Are_you_allowed_to_have_sex_on_the_beach_there.html The Sexual Offences Act 2003 does not specifically state that sex on the beach is illegal. https://www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/22012575/sex-on-beach-laws/
  11. He could have tucked the package under his tongue or split it in half and tucked it into both ear canals. Not very likely immigration would look into these places.
  12. Identified by the Thai Department of Revenue as a resident, pay Thai income tax but no 20 baht discount for you.
  13. This ruling, Nestlé notes, could have significant implications for small businesses, including local coffee shops and suppliers, as well as dairy and coffee farmers who face disruptions in their supply chain. So destroy Thai businesses. Not an issue?
  14. I view spoken American English as a free-for-all having no real limits of what can be included or distorted. It's a consequence of extreme freedom of speech. You'll find adoptions of foreign words in English, commonly from the community of the Romance languages (Latin, Spanish, French) and "street lingo." Certainly written English is more formalized for exactness and compliance for formal publication or presentations. Hasta con vista.
  15. There is allegedly a self-correction in treatment of conscripts in that conscription numbers will begin draw down in April 2024 and zero out by April 2027. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Thai_Armed_Forces But it appears the military has a difficult time breaking its military traditions of abusing conscripts. Just as it does with its propensity for military overthrow of elected Thai governments.
  16. Superficially, there is currently NO REAL ISSUE with Thailand's import of US beef into Thailand as it's a matter that he majority of imported beef comes from Australia and New Zealand "due to lower prices through free trade agreements with the United States being the fourth largest supplier of beef products to Thailand." (my bold). https://www.fas.usda.gov/data/thailand-thailands-beef-market Yes, Thailand imports beef from nearby suppliers where the shipping cost that is included in the value of the import has to be substantially cheaper from Asian-Pacific area nations than the US halfway around the world. Thailand isn't "cheating" the US on trade, it's just practical "kitchen" economics. Trump's new Day of Liberation tariffs against Thailand apart from violating current US FTA with Thailand (as Trump did with HIS USMCAS FTA) is just a fabrication. How does a nation negotiate trade with Trump who has no economic logic for his newly and unilateral tariff increases? Trump doesn't comply with international agreements, He just gets "OFF" being aggressive and making people/nations bend to his will(y).
  17. Designing earthquake resistant high rise buildings goes beyond stiffened columns which in themselves may create points of stress by their stiffness. "Top 5 Ways Engineers “Earthquake Proof” Buildings"
  18. Canadians give Trump the "elbow." Blair gives Trump the "knees." Trump demands that every country that trades with the US must have parity in trade value or that the US import value exceeds export value. A balance that is difficult if not impossible to achieve for many nations.
  19. Applies regardless of any visa currently held including any re-entry pass. Long Term Resident visa included according to BOI. Even though the form is formated as a visitor (the term "visitor" is mentioned in TDAC videos and articles) to Thailand, your country of residence cannot be Thailand and form requires information for departure from Thailand back to your origin country as if the trip to Thailand is part of a round trip. Hopefully there will be further refinement in the form.
  20. Penguins will wear black in protest against Trump's new tariffs against them. (Trump pledges to negotiate in earnest)
  21. So long as it doesn't violate state and US Constitutions, the states decide what is required for eligible voting. Not POTUS Trump.
  22. Easily revamp Thailand's electrification system, internal transportation systems, fund government hospitals, support new hi-tech industries, etc.
