  1. As Trump recently claimed that President Joe Biden had been assassinated in 2020 and substituted with a clone or robot, it would seem appropriate that the robot would use an autopen.
  2. As the 10-year LTR costs B 50,000, the lawyer's fee seems unreasonable.
  3. Many brains were drained by MAGA, now just cult zombies
  4. I don't think this deal could occur without Thailand government backing. Especially with Thailand's membership on the UN Human Rights Commission. On the other hand a junta-to-junta backed gas deal makes sense.
  5. Or TACO team still doesn't have a deal, just concepts, expectations and hopes. Remember that any US economic deal must be approved by the US Senate and foreign country legislation for it to be binding. Otherwise, all one gets are MOU's with no confirmed trade deal.
  6. Now Thailand is the Hub of Sex Worker Diversity.
  7. Make that probable "criminal" behavior the Thai was potentially trying to restrain from further attack against the shop and its people until police arrive. I give the Thai person more creditability than bystanders laughing, albeit out classed physically.
  8. That is happens when you lie about alleged events.
  9. Ford and GM are leaving the US instead of expanding manufacturing in the US as Trump forecast. Some foreign auto makers who have manufacturing in the US are also leaving.
  10. Bumrungrad pharmacy has vaccination for Covid-19 variant JN.1 variant. Some symptoms of JN.1: mild fever cough sore throat runny nose headache Note symptoms are similar to influenza.
  11. For suspicion police could add the Thermae Bar located in the basement and entrance of the Ruamchit Plaza Hotel to its inspections.
  12. Thailand has a mixed economy with the major economic sectors being agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, service and natural resources. In 2022, the tourism sector directly contributed around 2.78% to the gross domestic product (GDP) in Thailand. In 2021 the economy of Thailand was dependent on exports, which accounted for about 58% of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2021. Tourism is a low-value sector while exports (manufacturing, agriculture) are higher value sectors of the economy. Thailand might better advance its economy by shifting part of its tourism industry through training, mechanization and industrialization aimed towards higher value sectors. But a decade of post-2013 Thai governments have seemed too often incapable of making such a commitment.
  13. There are no explicit anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ people are present in China's legal system, nor do hate crime laws cover sexual orientation or gender identity. Wikipedia Know your rights or kick thereof when going to any foreign country.
  14. aka Concepts. Never ending and never materialize.
  15. Been there, done that. "Thai rice farmers demand better support as prices plummet," updated Feb. 21, 2025 https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/se-asia/thai-rice-farmers-demand-better-support-as-prices-plummet Thai government measures to support rice farmers have failed to meet expectations, with some growers in the world’s second-largest rice exporting country vowing protests as they are squeezed between falling prices and rising cultivation costs. We are not happy with the measures. I think the government is not sincere with farmers at all,” said Mr Thitiwat Kleepmalai, a farmer leader from Ayutthaya province" Thailand’s centuries-old rice cultivation system is under severe stress from climate change, unsustainable farm debts and a lack of innovation, despite tens of billions of dollars in subsidies over the past decade. Subsidies will not change the economic dynamics of unprofitable Thai rice production. Nor will street protests.
  16. With Skype gone I use rakuten viber with fixed subscription Out that provides calling from mobile phone and pc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viber
  17. But I found the mandatory shoes were relatively expensive for poverty family.
  18. For those who want to do a deep dive into the politics of Thailand's rice policies: "Overview of Rice Policy 2000-2018 in Thailand: A Political Economy Analysis" https://ap.fftc.org.tw To date no Thai government has meet the challenges to rice price sustainability. "What Thailand needs is the structural transformation that moves large excess supply of agricultural labor into no-agricultural sector which has higher productivity." ditto But given decades of Thailand's national reputation being based in part as one of the world's top rice producers, can any Thai government be willing to such transformation?
  19. "Over 18.9 million tons of rice remaining in warehouses were sold by the Thai government at prices far below market value, with no progress in investigations or responsible parties identified to this day." https://www.nationthailand.com/blogs/news/politics/40050323
  20. Technically the government calls it "Thailand-Styled Democracy" to distinguish it from "Western-styled democracy."
  21. No surprise as it was known from the beginning of purchase negotiations between Thailand and China that the German engine was not allowed under EU sanctions. But it seems the Thai PM thought Germany could be convinced otherwise AFTER signing a purchase contract with China, even years later trying to convince the President of Germany to allow German engines into Chinese subs that Thailand had COMMITTED to purchase. Germany replied NO.
  22. Thailand has been using its frigates as submarines, albeit resulting in dead sailors.
  23. Vaccine will not work if previously unknowingly infected.
