  1. On the positive side, we’re pretty good tippers, according to those in the tourist and entertainment industries. And some of us have educations, good writing and speaking skills, and can be considered soft-spoken. And we don’t all wear sleeveless shirts.
  2. Joe Biden’s on FB, so why not? Not sure about Hunter Biden, though.
  3. Do they really want to up the odds with millions of Chinese tourists? Absolutely.
  4. How about enticing Western tourists? Oh, that’s right—traders have already decimated western currencies…
  5. With the Baht so high Social Security’s 8%+ raise in January means we’re actually making less money now, than we did last Sept/Oct when USD/TB hit 38+. It really makes you wonder—who did this, and why?
  6. Thanks for posting. Need some humor, especially after viewing currencies.
  7. Thailand competitiveness—going, going…
  8. Rising Baht will put an end to, or at least crimp foreign investment, just saying…
  9. Not exactly. In America, you can check a gun and ammunition in your luggage when flying domestically. The gun must be properly stored in a lockable case, and you must declare it and show your valid gun license at check in.
  10. Open borders in the US. Gee, how did that happen?
  11. Baht rising also will have an effect.
  12. So can we all at least agree a rising Baht sucks for expats?
  13. A rapidly rising Baht would accomplish this—discourage tourism and reduce exports. We’re both right—depends on which side of the telescope you look through.
  14. Brilliant strategy—jack the Baht up. That will stimulate the economy…NOT.
  15. We often take ferries in Thailand. My wife insists on packing a life jacket in the back seat. Now I may do the same.
  16. How much training for emergencies did the crew have? Did they know there weren’t enough flotation devices?
  17. Very sad. We see many Thai flags flying in our Koh Chang village today. Many years ago they also had a naval loss here.
  18. Ah yes, the good old days. High prices come with with the ruling party.
  19. Open up Keystone Pipeline, and do shale wells later.
  20. Liberals are free to cancel their Twitter accounts. Or buy Twitter and bring it back to the way it was.
  21. Good time to invest in pendants, shrimp and durian.
  22. Turnabout’s fair play. Let Twitter (Elon Musk) dox all those doxxing so-called journalists.
