I assume total numbers are down, but Europeans as a percentage of the decreased total have gone up. USA not currently popular due to jail fears. So, more booking to other places, and I suspect Thailand has to thank Trump for what is a disaster for US tourism.

Europeans are switching from USA to anywhere else - not surprisingly law-abiding tourists they do not fancy getting jailed by the crazies at US border). So numbers go up in Thailand.

Report Thailand Overhauls Stimulus Strategy, Cancels Digital Wallet Plans

Obviously. Maybe ditch visas. All farang spend money from external sources in thailand - whether short-stay or long-stay. They should try to make it more friendly to all farang instead of obsessing about imaginary high-quality tourists. -
I forgot to mention vinegar - it has acetic acid which is very good in the gut & impacts kidney stone formation (reduces it). Naturally fermented is easy to make.

Agreed. And tapenade (olive spread) is wonderful. I prefer Kalamata olives
