Stay in Thailand should be less than 180 days -
"protect its citizens from aliens who intend to commit terrorist attack" But not from Americans (like J6) who intend to commit terrorist attacks.

There is a more relevant model that involved a Muslim insurrection in the Pacific: the Moro Conflict in the Philippines. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moro_conflict and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprehensive_Agreement_on_the_Bangsamoro The Federation of Malaysia was a key participant in successful peace negotiations in The Philippines Moro conflict and currently in peace negotiations with Thailand over the Patani Muslim insurrection. https://www.aa.com.tr/en/asia-pacific/peace-deal-between-thailand-separatists-still-distant/2156612 Buddhist Kingdom of Siam multiple times, starting in 1785 and ending in 1902 fought to invade Kingdom of Patani. The invasions ultimately resulted in the end of Patani's independence and its (forced) incorporation (aka annexation) into Thailand. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patani_Kingdom

Trump’s Inauguration: A Gathering of Global Far-Right Leaders
Srikcir replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Another flip-flop - money before the American People. "As a candidate, Donald Trump enjoyed pillorying the globalists. “We will no longer surrender this country, or its people, to the false song of globalism,” he said in his first major speech on foreign policy in April 2016." by John Feffer, Jan. 31, 2018 "Big Surprise: Rich Globalists Love Trump," https://fpif.org -

Try fact checking before you claim the ridiculous. MAGA supporters belatedly realize their vote for Trump was a mistake and reflected in current polls. -

PM Paetongtarn to visit southern provinces amid recent bombings
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Been there, not done it. "Locked in Unrest: Southern Thailand’s Insurgency 20 Years On," https://thediplomat.com/2024/11/locked-in-unrest-southern-thailands-insurgency-20-years-on/ "... acceptance of the Tak Bai massacre lawsuit in August offered Paetongtarn’s administration a chance to mitigate anti-establishment hostilities in the region." by Nurrisha Ismail November 13, 2024 (paraphrasing) While the Narathiwat Court found sufficient grounds for murder and illegal detention charges against seven former high-ranking officials related to the Tak Bai massacre, the government failed to uphold the rightful judicial process, and bring a measure of accountability for the killing at Tak Bai, could significantly hinder future peace efforts. "Barriers to cooperation at both the insurgency and national levels can be ameliorated when conflict resolution policies are strategically designed to build consensus and uphold justice." (my bold) "when" isn't apparently now. The Muslim "South" has been under constant Kingdom of Thailand's State of Emergency (removal of constitutional rights) for decades. Relaxing enforcement while NOT raising or relaxing the State of Emergency entrenches mutual contempt and distrust by the Malay Muslim insurgents, especially in light of new and younger Malay Muslim insurgent groups not represented in the last decade of "peace talks" by the Thai government, largest insurgency group BRN and Malaysia. -
Thailand Sets Sights on Nuclear Power Integration by 2037
Srikcir replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Thailand looks to China’s small nuclear reactor for low-carbon energy," Nov. 5, 2024 https://www.nationthailand.com/sustaination/40042986 "Small modular reactors (SMRs) will help cut carbon emissions as well as electricity costs," says Egat governor Thepparat Theppitak. "Egat is studying over 80 types of SMRs in 18 countries, including China’s Linglong One, located in Hainan, which is the world’s first above-surface commercial SMR." Frankly, there are more issues within Thailand in its ability to transmit power efficiently throughout its electric grid than producing it. -

Not paying royalties for songs the Trump campaign uses is pure greed. Hope YMCA got paid in advanced. -
Google. There are many sources related to the Malay Muslim insurrection in Thailand. For example: "The Ongoing Insurgency in Southern Thailand: Trends in Violence, Counterinsurgency Operations, and the Impact of National Politics," by Zachary Abuza https://inss.ndu.edu/Media/News/Article/693660/ "South Thailand insurgency," https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Thailand_insurgency

Thai-ing up rates: BoT bosses feel heat over 2% cap warning
Srikcir replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
"Overview In October 2024, United States exported $1.37B and imported $6.18B from Thailand, resulting in a negative trade balance of $4.81B." https://oec.world/en/profile/bilateral-country/usa/partner/tha As per 45th POTUS Trump's tariff wars and consistent with his recent trade threats against Canada wherein the US has a negative trade balance, it's likely Trump will again apply tariffs against all nations wherein the US has negative trade balances, ie., Thailand. A nation that has a free trade agreement (FTA) with the US has no assurance that Trump will respect such trade agreements. Such is the case of his recent threats of applying higher tariffs against Canada and Mexico in violation of his own US congressionally-approved USMC trade agreement when Trump was 45th POTUS. -
China-Tour Cancellations Shake Thailand's Tourism for New Year
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
China’s Economic Slump Is Here to Stay, https://time.com/6835935/china-debt-housing-bubble/ "the real cause of China’s slump is the long period of fast growth that piled up vulnerable and unsustainable debts. The higher they fly, the harder they fail." 2025 will not see an end to China's economic collapse. Chinese tourism will focus more on short, local travels. -

Thailand Opts for Gripen Jets Over F-16s in Defence Upgrade
Srikcir replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
The Gripen is more than adequate for homeland defense, albeit a fleet of four means only 2-3 on full duty with one in reserve. Thailand's Gripens will join Czech Republic, Hungary, South Africa, Sweden and Brazil operating Gripens. Fourteen Gripens are in the queue for fighter aircraft being donated to Ukraine, ie., behind F-14's. -
"INDECENCY ON THE INTERNET AS A CHALLENGE TO THAI LAW," by Alexander Shytov https://www.thailawforum.com/articles/indecency-challenge-thailaw.html "According to Section 287 of Thai Penal Code “Whoever (1) for the purpose of trade of trade or by trade, for public distribution or exhibition" "carries on trade, or takes part or participates in the trade concerning the aforesaid obscene material or thing, distributes or exhibits to the public" (my bold emphasis) Whereas "OnlyFans is the 18 + subscription platform (for a fee) empowering creators to own their full potential, monetize their content, and develop authentic connections with their fans (Only Fans, get it?)." How is the public damaged by a private subscription only platform? It isn't in the subject case. That's a civil case. Police are to enforce criminal laws following the Penal Code. Allegation is irrelevant to law enforcement and arrest. Was the model held against her permission, raped, threatened with violence, etc. that are aspects of criminal acts? No evidence or allegations were produced.
