Transport Ministry Commits to Full EV Transition
I traveled from my neck of the woods to Rai Khing the other day on a local bus.. 22 kilometres for 25 baht.. The bus I think was registered the same year as I was born, and looks like it's done the same mileage. A real old diesel burner with rickety old bench seats, and roof fans that long since stopped working. The driver was in his autumnal years but at least he was steady, an average 50 mph and double de-clutching every gear as he manage the 3ft long gear stick... impressive.

Pregnant Burmese woman begs thief to return 240,000 baht’s worth of gold
No I don't think so... I just quoted the correction in the post... I don't think she was robbed, certainly not 240,000 baht. If she had that much money in gold she most likely would have been back in Myanmar living well.
