Baht Poised for Dip to 35 per USD by Mid-2025, Experts Predict
Srikcir replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In other words, the baht is resilient and the BOT interest strategy works. The government has neither weakened NOR strengthened the baht. That is an outcome of a clueless and/or unsustainable economic strategy by the government. What is more likely is the devaluation of the USD by its own government (3 trillion more debt?) while resulting in strengthening of its former allies currencies. -
Trump Considers ‘DOGE Dividend’ to Return Federal Savings to Taxpayers

Think of what would be saved by eliminating the Executive Branch and Congress. Run the US like Switzerland. -
They did so well (not) with the Patani Malay Muslims to keep (failed) peace but had to have a State of Emergency in place. Will ISOC require a SOE in areas of large foreign populations? So is this an admission that Thai Police are incapable to assure compliance with constitutional laws? ISOC is a military command and not a civilian agency. The elected PM and House ministers have no authority over ISOC.

IMF Urges Thailand to Cut Interest Rates to Boost Economy
Srikcir replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Not only increase debt but increase inflation. "The International Monetary Fund (IMF) suggests Thailand could benefit from trimming its policy interest rate to boost inflation." https://finimize.com Boosting inflation means even more debt, less buying power and weaker international trade competition. How is that helpful to Thailand? -

Family Rush to Rescue British Man With Mystery Illness in Thailand

That likely will require a deposit of 1/2 million or more baht to guarantee coverage in the specialized Bangkok hospital. Might be more cost effective to return him directly to UK. -
Thai Baht Set to Weaken as US Tariff Tensions Escalate
Srikcir replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The baht might weaken some in advance of the Dollar in the short term mostly due to international market "jitters." But the impart of Trump's tariffs in the long term if he doesn't cave on the tariffs in the short term will weaken the Dollar's exchange rate perhaps even more than any weakening of the baht. Figure 2-3 months of US industrial stagnation/closures, higher unemployment, loss of consumer confidence, stock market losses and higher inflation in consumables might tend to strengthen the baht. -

Thailand Debates Costly Move to Relocate Capital from Bangkok
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Why was the capital of Egypt moved? Considering Cairo's rising population, congestion, and pollution, the government announced in 2015 that it would build and migrate to the so-called New Administrative Capital (the city is not yet officially named).

PM Paetongtarn strengthens ties with Xi in landmark China visit
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
In 2023, foreign direct investment net inflows from China to Thailand amounted to more than 1.8 billion U.S. dollars, indicating a significant increase compared to the previous year. Foreign direct investment is a type of investment made by an individual or corporation in one country into a business in another country. Most if not all Chinese imports enter Thailand duty-free. China operates through its poliburo Thailand's largets electronic marketplace Lazada. Thailand buys Chinese submarines. Thailand gives "blue plate specials" to Chinese tourists. What more does this government need to engage China in economic bonds? Maybe the answer is the Thai governments have done all they can do in the last decade for close Chinese economic support and needs to develop other foreign economic bonds. -
Thai court rules traffic fines unlawful since 2020
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
It is the verbal statements made to motorists that's unlawful. The fines are legal. Two separate actions. Fined motorists should have the right to challenge the police statements as being unlawful and challenge the fine, as such the alleged fine should deferred to adjudication. But a traffic ticket should be issued and acknowledged by the driver's signature. Whether the police choose to enforce the fine I court is another matter. -
