The U.S. should totally back out and let Europe handle it Trump is trying too hard to be a hero.

Expat Arrested for Keeping Exotic and Protected Wildlife
Ostrich meat is really good and lean. I would have asked him to make some steaks.

Doge vs the Thieves
The full extent of corruption, fraud, and lack of accountability will probably never be discovered. Thailand seems honest and transparent compared to the disgusting U.S. fiasco.

Don't Park in Front of Central Mall
Well, why not explain to obey the law and not park in the red or blocked off curb areas? All a good thing I think plenty of legal parking if a person looks for it.

Hawaiian shirts
It seems to happens every year around this time with Songkran coming up in April.

Mob of Teens Beat up Driver in LA Third Time in Months
Yes, that is a problem with a WOKE Liberal place like LA. If a person did defend themselves, especially with a firearm, they could well be prosecuted for several crimes. The entire system there is so screwed up.

Why I like Thai people
A lot of the unfriendliness comes from the lack of communication and English. Make a joke and they give you a quizzed look. This is the majority of the people in my experience here cuz most seem to speak little or no English. Also, deep down I don't think they like foreigners much. For several probably well deserved reasons. The LOS seems to be fading unfortunately.

Fed-Up Bangkok Locals Demand Action on Rowdy Foreign Renters
I think in some of these situations the Jurasic office or building managers are getting a kick back. Way too obvious what is happening and showing complicity with security assisting people with check in. Just so glad I never made the stupid mistake of buying a condo.

U-Tapao Airport Scales Down Expansion Amid Rail Delays
Wasted resources. Same with Hua Hin airport which has only one flight to and from CNX. Never thought the rail would ever make it because the description of "high speed" is a concept way beyond the continued 3rd worldish thinking here.

Siem Reap airport is a behemoth built by China with very little use.

Foreign Takeover? Thailand's Hotels Face Investment Surge
They are just figuring this out now. 555 Yes, they are buying entire floors or buildings. And I bet, no taxes are paid on any of the income they generate. Maybe focus on these cancers rather then expats and their pensions.

Pattaya Nightlife Comes Under Scrutiny Amid Noise Complaints
Probably the people at The Base and The Edge. Stupid people who bought there in my opinion those bars have been there way before the condos were built. Any idiot who invested failed to go there at night to see if it was noisy? So excited about their 6 million b condo now they cannot sleep. Ah, too bad tough luck why penalize the bars? Dummies.

Any recommendations for a decent residence hotel in Pattaya
I know you said no Abnb, but for that price he can get something pretty nice in a good location. A hotel for a month here may well charge for electric and only clean the room once a week. More privacy I think in a newer condo also with a kitchen, frig, good internet, modern TV, etc.

Thailand's Auto Output Drops 24.63% as Domestic Sales Falter
They should get out and hustle more and sell more cars to people who make 12,000 b a month with a 5,000 b car payment.

Thailand Faces Backlash Over Rise of Illegal Hotel Operations
I certainly would not want it where I live. NiMBY: not in my back yard. But, I admit I do ST rentals. Can't blame people I stayed in new 1 br condo with 2 TVs, a great kitchen, pool, gym in Bangkok for 5 days a few weeks ago for 1/3 the price of a hotel. I usually don't complain, but hotel prices for a good hotel in Bangkok now seem outrageous.

Pai's Tourism Woes: Over 1,600 Foreigners Arrested in a Year
Thailand will always be known as a cheap holiday, sex holiday, drunk holiday, do what you want. Nothing will change just more of the aforementioned will keep coming.

Why on earth would you even consider paying for sex in Thailand?
People who pay and go seem much smarter then dummies who marry for it.

Judge Rules in Favor of Trump Administration’s Recall of USAID Workers
AIDS has been around for almost 50 years I bet most Africans are well aware of it. Yet, they still irresponsibly catch it and want other countries to pay for their poor judgement? Maybe Africa should solve their corruption and fraud issues probably more then enough left for their AIDS patients.

Why on earth would you even consider paying tax in Thailand?
What tax? First I heard about it.

What milk in warm room
Most of the alternative milks are not refrigerated at purchase. Just check the markets they have oat, soy, almond on the shelves in small and large cardboard type containers not refrigerated. Probably buy the smaller size so you can dispose after consumption.
