  1. Meanwhile Chinese manufacturers / clever Chinese business people are talking to many other countries and making sales / gaining income with nice margins but not playing tariff games. China doing well and it will continue whilst ignoring trump.
  2. Let's be clear, there's a number of 'strange' factors which together add up to him entering Thailand with no report of illness / or serious illness / or critical illness, a couple of hours at Klong Prem then into an advanced medical penthouse suite at the police general hospital. Many months and many medical reports later re sickness but they are not conclusive then he's released and all over Thailand visiting various venues and making political contacts with old friends / cronies and political speeches. And the gullible Thai public don't raise hell.
  3. NO NO, they all walked down the stairs level 9 to level 1 to get a medical check up... All healthy so they then took another lift level 1 to level 9 to resume their purpose. Just common sense.
  4. Enough silly comments, she should be at the white House attending to the many items the first lady should look at / focus on / create benefits for the underprivileged etc.
  5. Read more. I don't buy your negative comments. What's behind your negatives: race? She's also very successfully given many invited law lectures at several highly acclaimed universities.
  6. ... and let's not forget she has achieved a Ph.D. I have a Ph.D. and I've joined several Ph.D. committees. Many would consider law to be the hardest subject to battle and achieve a Ph.D.
  7. Are you a little paranoid? If you're an Aussie pensioner the Oz gov't know your outside of Oz (or inside oz) through their 24/7 online access to immigration records (continuous automatic scrutiny of arrivals and departure passport numbers). If your passport number is spotted (out or in) the details are automatically added to your CLink file.
  8. If no reply suggest you email to Division1 Immigration division1.immigration(at)gmail.com Plenty of good English available, usually respond with clear answers within 2 to 4 days.
  9. And in any case I strongly doubt that any government would 'reduce' benefits in any way.
  10. should always have a plan where to hide all cash, cards, documents, valuables. If no 'secret place' can be spotted in the guest room then deposit it at the lobby. Be pragmatic, if the 'player' needs to wait a day they so be it, plenty of girls available in bars where records are kept, so why engage anonymous girls from the beach. Yeah heard it before 'save 300Baht'. Grow up guys think more before you act.
  11. Re the last paragraph, the tot money spent in Thailand by Israels (and many other nationalities) is very very tiny compared to the Thai economy.
  12. Sorry, one more point. Is it true that renewal of Oz passport for 10 years is now approx. 16,000Baht? I've very doubtful I will ever travel out of Thailand again. Can I request a limited page passport on renewal or is the Australian passport one standard 72 page size? (I'm aware that older folks can renew for 5 years but prefer to stay with the 10 year issue.)
  13. Very interesting and thanks for sharing. I'm 80 years old, PR of Thailand for 28 years. I've renewed my Oz passport 3 time before but then I lived in Bkk. Need to renew it again mid February 2026, now full-time permanent resident in CNX, live in the Don Chan area, close to Big C Don Chan. Any specific items to be careful of re renewal when resident in CNX? Do I start with the online process regardless of where I'm resident in Thailand? I've renewed my Australian birth certificate to the current format. Previously included a copy of the original birth certificate issued 80 years ago (1945). (For a different purpose I shared a copy of the 1945 issued original certificate but it was not accepted, apparently a mistake was made when the 1945 records were entered into the electronic database some 30? years ago.) Should I now submit my new birth certificate issued in Sydney about 5 years? Any advise much appreciated. Thanks.
  14. True of course. The next chapter could go in many directions and it won't surprise if 'the powers' squash anything which looks like a victory, regardless of location.
  15. Does Barron have a US passport?
  16. This relates to Khon Kaen. Maybe Khun Pita and and his party now believe they will have more success by focusing first on regional seats then move to the national scenario? Hope they have success.
  17. You have no credibility or authority to inform anybody about anything. Crawl back under your rock and stay there.
  18. That's not really true, plenty of Europeans and US Americans lack basic manners, politeness, and common sense.
  19. When my employer posted to Thailand I took some quite incorrect advice "cannot buy shampoo, shaving cream or throw away shavers in Thailand", and more. So I brought big supplies with me. Within 24 hrs of being here I discovered I could buy everything I wanted for a happy contended life including food / groceries, etc.
