I cannot confirm this. I used my telescope last night but could only see the light side of the moon. 😀 But, if the Chinese say they have landed an EV out of sight we are expected to believe them. How do they communicate with it?

Maybe just a hoax same as Many people say about the US landing on the Moon.

They say Believe it or Not.

Its questionable.

Noticing the van following her, she moved aside but eventually honked to warn the driver, prompting him to follow her aggressively.

 

Yep, Nothing new about that they think that they own the road, same as on a 2lane road they straddle the white line and expect you to get off the road . 

Van drivers should be banned and put in jail  they are a dangerous Breed.

The Buddhist faith requires renunciation.. the giving up of all material goods, and working for money.

It relies totally on donations.

Wissanu Krea-ngarm, Thailand's former Deputy Prime Minister, has put to rest rumours that he may create "legal miracles" to assist Thaksin Shinawatra or Yingluck Shinawatra in their ongoing legal battles. Speaking today, Wissanu said categorically that he is unable to alter the course of justice for either of these high-profile figures.

Maybe not him but I bet my Left one someone will/Try  or already did.

One can use Wise in the US to send the funds to your Bank/account in Thailand 

 I  transfer with Wise  and  can take 2/3days from Australia to Thailand

From the US to Thailand is mostly 1 Day.

We are in a third world country, so I find it legitimate that Thailand doesn't have to bear the cost of health of a group of geriatric immigrants.

I Didn't say that Thailand has to bear the cost.

I said that they should have maybe a government insurance that's reasonable  not like the High Fee ones that are catered for western countries  this being that Thailand is a cheaper country so one would expect a cheaper fee for insurance  but No they rip you off at a western rate to make more profit . you think that's Fair? not me.

It isn't a rip off at all, the cost of healthcare taken into account is Switzerland. So here I just walk into Bumrungrad, totally relaxed. We get what we pay for

Yes that maybe so. 

But for a Cheapish sort of a country why can't insurance companies  cater for the Many thousands of expats and other foreigners and some Native for a Reasonable Insurance that does't cost that much.

The government should look into this and provide  the insurance themselves. Most Retired oldies on a pension and with a lot off pre existing conditions just can't afford to pay the high Fees or it's cheaper to Not insure.

Thailand indicts former leader Thaksin Shinawatra on royal insult charges.

. Thaksin will need to appear before the Office of the Attorney General on June 18, after which he will be taken to court. He could not appear at Wednesday’s hearing due to a Covid-19 infection, the spokesperson said.  " 

Thailand has some of the world’s strictest royal defamation laws, and criticizing the king, queen, or heir apparent can lead to a maximum 15-year prison sentence for each offense.

Sentences for those convicted under Section 112 of Thailand’s Criminal Code, or lese majeste law, can be decades long, and hundreds of people have been prosecuted in recent years.

Here we go again  Just Wondering how long this covid will take to get better.

A long stay in the hospital  seems to be in order . 

Just thinking ,did Thaksin arranged to by his way out of this and Not go to Jail Again.

What a #@*!$ country,
