Thailand and Palestine to join forces to free Thai hostages
I believe there was an article stating 159,000 tourist visited Thailand from Israel in a 9 month period, that might end up being zero pretty soon, I wonder how many Palestinians visit Thailand and spend equivalently.

Any bets on how fast these land deeds/titles end up in the hands of some unscrupulous politicians?

Well at least we now have a convicted Heroin smuggler to head the Agricultural Ministry, that will definitely fix their reputation

Bankbook for extension of stay
Just reminded me, I need to tell SCB about my new passport (Aug 2023), before I head in for my extension in February. However, I bought a new smartphone last year, and when I transferred the SCB banking app, I noticed it was linked to my Pink ID number, not my passport number, so not sure what SCB will tell me when I go in.

PM Reviews Progress of EV Two-Row Cars
Almost got one for the wife, I liked the interior (seats) in the one I saw at the Bangkok Auto Show, though I would prefer a hybrid. For some reason you can't get the Honda City Hatchback Hybrid with leather seats, I hate cloth.

Experts warn of ‘lost generation’ as Thailand marks Children’s Day
That's exactly what the Elites want, so the plan is working perfectly, the MFP was the only hope in seeing change in this area. Instead, we have an alliance of Evil running the country.

New tax era in Thailand begins as Revenue now shares data with 138 countries within the OECD
Which is what I think anyone with knowledge of this change has done already, they would've brought in enough money to make it through this first year of the change without anymore transfers needed, or planned. Then by early next year, I am sure RD and Immigration will have enough information out that we can all make a decision on our next move. That is what I did, though I wish I brought in just a little bit more than I did. I'm still surprised they aren't just taxing us on all our worldwide income, and instead are focusing on remittance only, which makes things way more difficult.

What does Thaksin have to do to get sister Yingluck home?
He seems to have the LOS wrapped around his finger right now, so he should just make a declaration, and it will be done. <sarcasm>Emperor Xi is nothing compared to Thaksin the Great.</sarcasm>

PM Srettha seeks extension to visa-free countries list for Thai passport
Poor people from South America are paying thousands of dollars to get to our Southern border, so no, it's reality.

PM Srettha seeks extension to visa-free countries list for Thai passport
That's delusional at best, its nothing more than a pipe dream that has no chance in Hell of ever happening.

PM Srettha seeks extension to visa-free countries list for Thai passport
Never going to happen in the US, that's all we need, every Thai with a 350 baht daily wage would fly to the US and never return.

Healthier food and snacks to choose in 2024
Believe me, I know, I remember an article in the BP when I came here in 2016, I believe it said 90% of tested Organic produce were covered in chemicals (some of which were illegal chemicals).

Healthier food and snacks to choose in 2024
I find the healthy offering here to be hard to find, that's one of the biggest things I miss from back home in the states, at least for those of us who choose to eat healthy. Plus Thai's need to stop eating so much white rice, belly pork, and greasy fried foods dripping with oil.

Depressed woman assaults mother and baby in Thai shopping mall
The perpetrator should be careful, I don't think Thai's appreciate that some people can go from 0-100 on the violence scale in the blink of an eye.

How “peacemaker” Thaksin is stirring up Thai politics
Oh yes, we all knew your were talking about a government from almost 20 years ago....smh Enough seats? You mean they didn't get 250 votes from the handpicked Junta Senate? Baffling.

Suvarnabhumi Automated Passport Gates Not Available for Visa Holders with Re-Entry Permits?
Actually, the problem would only show up after people fly back into Thailand and try to use their reentry permit.

How “peacemaker” Thaksin is stirring up Thai politics
What elected government? The government was put in place by an unelected group of senators. The people voted for MFP, and your savior Thaksin's party sabotaged the MFP by joining the Junta in a hostile takeover, backstabbing the peoples elected choice.
