According to senior researcher at the Thailand Development Research Institute Nichamon Thongphat, if a bus is catorized as an "informal" bus (not a public bus) it is not regulated by the Department of Land Transportation requiring registration. I'd think that when used to transport vulnerable school children, such vehicle must be registered and annually inspected for children's safety. The subject bus appears to be a "double decker." Until a horrific fatality accident of a double decker bus in March 2018 in which 18 people were killed and more than 30 injured, operators of double decker buses were required to have LTD confirm safety standards. Following that accident LTD stopped accepting new registrations of double decker buses. "Land Transport Department to Stop Registering New Double-decker buses," April 2, 2018 https://www.huahintoday.com/ So was the subject bus unregistered? And as such uninsured?

Are you voting from overseas? If Trump looses the election you will be blamed. Overseas voters are the latest target in Trump's false narrative on election fraud. Donald Trump this week falsely accused Democrats of cheating their way to a win in November, using a bipartisan 1986 act to claim without evidence that anyone overseas can get a ballot emailed to them, even if they’re not eligible to vote. By Melissa Goldin, Associated Press September 26, 2024

Early voting is encouraged by the RNC but not by your god-king Trump even as he votes early in Florida. Donald Trump has flip-flopped more on early voting than practically any other issue. The result is a Republican base that has no idea what to believe. Donald Trump dismissed early voting as "stupid" but nevertheless encouraged voters in Pennsylvania to cast ballots as soon as possible...Issued on: 09/24/2024 Despite Trump's objections he recognizes the advantage Democrats have had in recent elections with early voting, so his campaign has been encouraging Republicans to cast ballots before election day.

Measured against other currencies can be confusing in terms of sustainable living. COLA adjustments to annual income US Social Security has averaged about 2.6% over the past 20 years; it even remained stagnant (0.0%) in 2010, 2011 and 2016. Then 8.7% in 2023, 3.2% adjustment in 2024 and expected 2.56% for 2025. Compared to Thailand's lower inflation rates, US retirement in Thailand based on Social Security benefits in recent years appears generally advantageous. More so for US federal pensions based on the Civil Service Retirement System Civil that is adjusted annualy based on US Social Security COLA. To quote Alfred E. Neuman: "What, me worry?" -

That would be great but ... Very difficult if not impossible due to high household debt. Thailand's average household debt has reached a record high due to slow economic growth, lower incomes and high living costs, and people are having trouble servicing their loans the country's household debt is16.4 trillion baht ($484 billion), or 90.8% of gross domestic product (GDP) at the end of March 2024, among the highest in Asia. And not improving. Average household debt up 8.4% this year. If the government doesn't understand all facets of a problem, it cannot solve the problem.

PM Paetongtarn tops the polls whilst Thaksin falls to 7th
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Let me reiterate: Thais (the "public electorate") vote for parties that promote their choice for PM and those parties occupy the House based on the number of minister seats they can claim. It's a parliamentary system. There was no "public electorate" election that led to Paetongtarn Shinawatra becoming PM. -

Roadside Bomb Injures Eight Soldiers in Southern Thailand

It might also highlight the failure of peace talks re-initiated by PM Prayut started in March 2020 in the aftermath of the failed negotiations with PM Yingluck Shinawatra's inability to contain the Thai army's objections in circa 2013. The RTM argued Thailand's sovereignty is undivided and cannot allow as defenders of the state the Southern Muslim 90% occupied provinces (former Muslim Kingdom of Patani) to have semi-autonomy. Coincidentally, Gen. Prayut led a military coup in 2014 to overthrow the Yingluck government. -
Lampang dams overflow, residents urged to evacuate valuables

Home buyers is such flood prone areas can get flood insurance. Much of South Florida is barely above sea level but flood insurance is available. The monthly cost is ridiculously cheap compared to potential damage. Wikipedia: The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is a program created by the Congress of the United States in 1968 through the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (P.L. 90-448). The NFIP has two purposes: to share the risk of flood losses through flood insurance and to reduce flood damages by restricting floodplain development. The program enables property owners in participating communities to purchase insurance protection, administered by the government, against losses from flooding, and requires flood insurance for all loans or lines of credit that are secured by existing buildings, manufactured homes, or buildings under construction, that are located in the Special Flood Hazard Area in a community that participates in the NFIP. -
