A Bank that requests faxes and has no email listed in customer service contact options sounds quite unusual.

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
Your condescending jibes and attacks on personalities you do not even know are notorious across many forum sites due to the insidious efforts to emulate a persona similar to Boris J and Don the Dump. Your best efforts are approximately equivalent to the best ICE powered vehicle at less than 50%. In serious developmental terms EV vehicles are comparatively at about Model A stage mostly in terms of battery recharge capacity vs time/vs safety. That is due to the vested interest of corporate petrochem interests determined to not relinquish the monopoly of both transport energies and established vehicle brands. In my younger years i can and do not deny I enjoyed the adrenaline rush derived from a (seriously modified) but genuinely impractical vehicle which by comparison to contemporary production units from Japan were quite pathetic. Power to weight ratios were touted as some sort of formula. Then un-sprung weight related to traction control ! Then the energy crisis ! OMG ! Fuel prices doubled. People still had to travel ! Extorted ....again ! It has never stopped. ! Motor racing is at least as popular as ever. Same for "sports" in stadiums payed for by taxpayers but demand an exorbitant entry fee to witness corporate playboys and girls strut their stuff ?Kick the ball? \ Do you feel no pain Sam? OH !

Is there a 2nd hand market for original watches within Thailand ??
I understand the dilemma for the OP. I have gifted a small solid gold ladies wristwatch to my wife. It was originally handed down from my Grandmother on my Father's side. Estimated age derived from records of family history would indicate it would be at minimum between 100 and 120 years old. It has a double sided hinged casing and is only about 2 cm across with a spring loaded expanding strap with security clasp. It is in perfect working order and keeps time despite only having a fully wound working time of 12 hours. I have tried to get a valuation (not in Thailand) but without any realistic consensus. Two Jeweler/watchmaker wanted to open.it just to check if the mechanism is an early Rolex which I declined because they could give no guarantee that by doing so would not cause functional issues as a result. My wife is Thai and so naturally very proud to have a GOLD heirloom to wear on special occasions. My interest in realistic value is about insurance rather than sale value. I have no emotional concerns because I never knew my Grandmother and from my fathers rare mention was not remembered long after her funeral. So quite sad that a material possession continues to represent more interest than the original recipient. Museums are even more morbid in that aspect.

Thailand Braces for Severe Summer Storms
I would hesitate to assume too much so quickly. The usual pattern at the start of the rain season , regardless of it coming early , late, or in accordance with legends, it almost invariably has a false start. After a week or two with some promising rainfall there is usually a break of up to a month before rains come in earnest . If this does occur but with a decrease in the constant high temperatures experienced so far this year I for one will have no objections !

Unmasking the Deeper Agenda: The Evolution of Anti-Americanism in Campus Protests
Such sentiments were also expressed during the Vietnam War protests . The only significant difference is the instantaneous social media distribution of imagery that when specifically targeted for impact provides an opportunity for focus on a specific distractional criticism of rather than the overall "cause" of the protests.

Does this bridge over the canal look safe?
So close it ! Deny , defy any level of accusations of risk until such time remedial repairs are done. Would that be more acceptable to those who before this bridge was built found another path? Or notifications advising and informing people transit is at own risk at this time insufficient? Less so than equivalent signage advising caution crossing a railway line?

No. You mentioned Marxist. Typical incapacity to not conflate indoctrinated concepts with opinion.

I would claim humanist as a category that such as yourself need to identify. Difficult ?

House Republicans Probe University Funding Amid Israel-Hamas Protests
Exactly that ! The proponents of war have most interest in both providing the means to conquer and also participate in at least a share of the spoils of victory. In that respect given the history of US support in conflict in not only but certainly in the "middle East" the aspect of humanity has always been secondary to profitable advantage. Proper considerations of the many and complex issues that are currently very relevant to the Middle East by way of the "Gaza War" and the deliberate suppression of genuine political argument dismissed as religious extremism or fanatical delusion is buried by a bought and paid for media owned by corporate entities that are permitted to offer an alternative distraction from truth such as ? Facebook etc ! The old but accurate of the donkey and carrot is more than ever relevant ! The only question remaining is which is donkey and which is a vegetable?

Heat effecting aluminium sliding doors - solution?
Be aware that all four corners of a sliding door will have adjusters to level and align the door against the jamb. If it need be to create clearance at the top then first adjust down at the bottom but in small increments.

Ceiling Insulation
I would question the idea of 6" in walls vs 3" in ceiling ! Unless you have wall cavities that will hold 6" materials without compressing ? Apart from sun exposure that moves throughout a day the walls are more subject to whatever heat is present atmospherically as in air temp. Your ceiling space is subject to absorbed heat from all sources. Logically the installation of the highest insulation factor material belongs there.

British Tourist Warned Over Criticism of Thailand Online
The original concept of "auditor" with the intent to focus on proper conduct by public "officials" in their application of assumed authority in exercising duties has indeed increasingly being questionably deligitimised . Creating confrontation simply to generate a response to the satisfaction of the "auditor" is tediously immature, unproductive and without any recognizable merit at all Sam.

Chinese modern furniture shops in bangkok?
It has been my lifelong understanding that Oriental in a vague exclusive form applies to the populations of the Asian continent of direct Chinese racial origin as opposed to the more generalized distinct race populations of East/South East Asia. In that regard the people of Mongolia, Tibet and greater China are oriental. The mountains of the Himalayas create a divide which denotes Asian denotation to Nepalese, Indians etc and thus South East East Asian by geographical location to the majority of the "list". There does exist a point of confusion when it comes to such as the archipelago nation of Indonesia in particular. In racial terms established by dna measures would suggest the eastward islands of Indonesia are originally historically populated by Melanesian/Papuan races who are racially not Asian except by terms of Nationality as are now. In recent times there have been declarations by Chinese racial exponents that the "original" Chinese have no dna markers in any other race. An arrogant xenophobic claim?

Chinese modern furniture shops in bangkok?
You are quite right and I humbly withdraw my facetious poor effort . Apart from major reservations about the CCP I have no real criticisms over things China. Traditionally and historically the Orientals have demonstrated both art and ingenuity on a scale of complexity still being rediscovered.
