  1. Hahaha, yeah I am really interested in investing millions in Thailand in a company I don't own a controlling interest in. Most businesses have learned their lessons with China.
  2. I am 72 , every time I read articles like this I cringe. 52-68 were some of the best years of my life.
  3. Thailand is important to the US as all the Asian countries are. The more aligned with the US the better. I say BS to this headline. Although it is not exactly saying much for sending the Uyghur's to certain death, prison and dismemberment for parts to be used. More to do with China pressuring Thailand to not talk with the US IMO.
  4. "Beijing will firmly oppose any party striking a deal at China's expense and "will take countermeasures in a resolute and reciprocal manner," its Commerce Ministry said." That pretty much sums it up, Pick a side.
  5. The reason is, China has said anyone that negotiates with Trump on the tariff talks will be held accountable! Thailand is just a China puppet. This pretty much proves it. Something everyone knew really. So, what does it mean is the question? Thailands tariff's will be held in place from now on at 36%? Thailand will loose access to the US market? This is heating up to be a real live tariff war, this is going to get ugly, and show who supports who. You retiree's are on pretty shaky ground. If it gets as bad as I think it will. The Thai's will start loosing Jobs, factories laying off workers by the thousands. China cannot support them , they cannot support their own people now. So far as consumption goes. Personally I would have an exit strategy ready just in case.
  6. I travel allot I pay a little more for the ride app's like Uber. But, I have the price upfront and know I will not be taken for a ride or over charged by a lot. I avoid the taxies when ever possible. Never had a problem with Uber and other app's. With the Taxies it is pot luck at best.
  7. Cannot make this stuff up! Problem is Thai's will not be prosecuted or the law changed. I mean really just murder for greed IMHO.
  8. That is how allot of the homes are bought in Thailand. Had a buddy that didn't have a clue who was the Thai shareholder on his property. Lawyers just set it up, collect the money boom you are a home owner.
  9. Anyone that has traveled in Thailand knows how allot of the accidents happen. Probably driving with the pedal to the metal then trying to break at the last moment.
  10. Glad I got to live and travel in a more simpler time. I remember kids looking at me scared to death because they had never seen a foreigner. Great times, Now? What a SH..
  11. Anyone that has had the pleasure of driving the highways during this Holliday knows what a joy it is to see cars whipping past you on the highway, and driving highway speeds in the turning lane. Like watching a horror movie in real life.
  12. It's one thing to call them names and such , but threaten to kill them is a different story.
