I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but with that three wheel configuration they're inherently unsafe, I would've thought.

They do OK in the Philippines.

Well yes. It's a forecast, an estimate of what is lkely to happen. By the CBEF. The F stands for Forecasting.

If you ask nicely they'll tell you what already happened.

I think it’s obvious that foreign inflows drive the Baht upwards.  And Chinese have the biggest share in this.  No other investors could profit more from these massive  zero-Baht tours.

Another myth. The numbers show that the Chinese spend more per capita than anyone else. Member Saengd proved it on here.

Turn of the foreign (Chinese) money spigot, that’s they need do.  The Baht will go down.

Myth.

Correct.  The $1 million investment will be no barrier for well off Chinese who have been investing much more than this in Thailand anyway

The TV pundits say the Chinese are all skint.

They all follow the flag round Walking Street and eat noodles on the pavement.

As the article points out, the Chinese are in effect stealing German jobs by forcing this company to set up plants in China.

Only if they want to trade with China and be competitive. Thats market forces.

Gonna be an ugly winter.  Smog season starts earlier and earlier every year.

Winds have turned around and blowing from the North means all the crappy

Chinese air is headed our way.  It used to take until late December to reach us.

Now, its here already.

AQI is 165 at midnight in Pattaya!!!  Sheesh.

Air is quite clean in China today.

A bit repetitive and boring constantly rolling out the 1 or 2 in quarantine that test positive.

 

That is the whole point of quarantine and ASQ hotels to identify and prevent these people who have caught the virus from getting into the community.

 

Do they want a drum roll and a round of applause for doing the exact job and identifying the reason that quarantine was put in place for?

 

Meanwhile, no strategy is put in place to speed up quarantine procedures to get the economy functioning again except trotting out the tired old line of travel bubbles with bloody China, asnd China does not want its nationals going abroad and is encouraging them very strongly to holiday in China.

 

What part of the memo have the buffaloes in power in Thailand not received?

Yes. Otherwise its a thankless yet very necessary task.

On Tuesday, Move Forward MP Rangsiman Rome claimed on his Facebook page and Twitter account to have found drugs and drugs-taking tools in the van parked in an area where pro-democracy protests were taking place.

Oh yeah? I know who should be investigated.

Very few. The covid will eventually disappear, but I doubt the ridiculously inflated baht will...

Some cancer research was done in Italy and had blood samples of their subjects saved... checked and found out that 30+ percent of the samples taken in early September last year showed antibodies for COVID19, so they likely got infected in August 2019. They were from 5 different provinces all over Italy.

 

Hence you could blame China for isolating the virus. They could have just kept quiet (which they tried).

Interesting.

Listen, if you are Chinese and get the Sino vaccine you won't need any insurance or quarantine, you will however be on a managed tour with a Chinese tour guide and you will shop and stop in Chinese Thai owned venues.

One or the other, please.
