also reported in carnewschina Major BYD dealer network collapses in eastern China The once-prestigious Jinan Qiansheng store, previously celebrated as “Greater China’s No.1 flagship store of BYD, ” is among the affected dealerships. It now stands virtually empty, with only two staff members remaining on site. The crisis has directly impacted over a thousand consumers who had prepaid for various services, including “three-year joint insurance” packages, maintenance plans, window tinting, chassis protection, and promised lifetime maintenance services. Many customers have organised rights protection groups to seek collective solutions. Multiple vehicle owners report that sales staff aggressively promoted the “three-year joint insurance” service during vehicle purchases. This service typically requires an upfront payment of 10,000 to 15,000 yuan (1,400-2,100 USD) to cover three years of insurance. Dealerships promised to reimburse customers for the second and third-year premiums after customers paid their annual insurance https://carnewschina.com/2025/05/29/major-byd-dealer-network-collapses-in-eastern-china/

What went wrong with Booking.com? How scammers successfully targeted guests of the world’s favourite place to book a hotel It took less than 15 minutes to list a holiday home on Booking.com.

The main additional military aid Ukraine has requested from the Trump administration is more Patriot missiles and launchers, “which, frankly, we don’t have,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing last Tuesday. Rubio said the United States is instead “encouraging” its NATO allies to donate Patriot missiles and systems from their stockpiles. But, he added, “none of these countries want to give up their Patriot systems, either.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/05/26/ukraine-patriot-missiles-air-defense-raytheon/ They have French air defence systems but no missiles Ukraine’s air defense crippled by France’s 18-month drought In a revelation that underscores the challenges facing Ukraine’s air defense capabilities, French media outlet Le Monde reported on May 26, 2025, that Ukraine has not received a single missile for its Crotale air defense systems in the past 18 months. https://bulgarianmilitary.com/2025/05/26/ukraines-air-defense-crippled-by-frances-18-month-drought/ Air defense systems seems to be their number 1 priority

Thailand exports vehicles to the US from various brands, including Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and Mitsubishi. These brands are major automotive producers and export hubs in Southeast Asia. Toyota, in particular, ships a significant number of vehicles, including those under the Lexus brand, to the US annually. I suspect pick-up trucks are not exported as there has been a 25% import tax since the 1950s on personal trucks
