The are where they face most dire workforce shortage: it is the retail and food & beverage sector. If you travel to Japan now, you will see quite a few foreigners working for their convenience stores and casual gourmet diners(low end establishments). Without such foreign inputs, they can no longer maintain their services.

Voice of conscience and reason in Thailand, above the interests of the few billionaires/traitors. Salute to the opposition.

Some people don't know something: Overseas students often need to pay more than the locals. Kicking out aliens and foreign products, and it will make everything cheaper in USA. That' what DT cult followers often believe. While the things are going opposite. They are well demonstrating some old proverb: Ignorance is bliss.

In Thailand, it is often common that people link some events with their lottery luck.

Not buying anything from China? Their slogan cap and the banners are made in Chinese factory though...

Another pain caused by Trump policy. DT campaign slogan 'America First'. It often turns out America First (to be hit). In that respect, what he says is true and correct.

As wasting food is a bad thing. Especially when they are so overpriced.

Foreign tourists often arrive with big heavy baggage. So sedan taxi is certainly better than motorbike ride. It is not like app driver stealing bike taxi's job.

The attack, apparently triggered by frustration over ride-hailing apps affecting traditional drivers’ income, One example of the crash between Old and New Economy.

Using eggs as weapon. Did they read this? Pro-Palestinian protesters pelted with eggs while blocking traffic

Yes. the best move is to fill the country of your passport, instead. As the town of your residence, just write the name of the place(home country) you lived last. Regarding the phone number, just enter the phone no you got in Thailand. Country name and phone number are not cross-referred, so no problems. I tried mock run of that TDAC sometime ago. And I could clear everything without any problem. Thanks to someone else's kind advice, including the one from Upnotover.

Thank you for sharing very clear information. Until 1960s, USA was the superpower of the manufacturing industries. But things changed, since their mega corporations started to shift their factories overseas. Some people just don't want to recognize that simple historic fact. And possessed with the no existing illusion; US of A can instantly revive its yesteryears' status as the Factory of the World. In reality, whatever stock/property money US of A got now, it won't any serve to turn the clock back to America's golden age past. Innocently believing in the empty slogan yelled by not so bright businessman(own firms busted multiple times, and busted with tax evasion several times). One great thing about America's education, often said to be developing Critical Thinking, from the young age. However, that ability looks like shutting down when they find some Cult Guru who repeats one same phrase(MAGA) groundlessly. And the followers never ask him one simple question: How we make it possible? Kicking out illegal aliens is one thing. Resuming long-lost domestic production is another. As the manufacturing is the cost and labor intensive work. Once the whole infrastructure is gone, takes enormous fund and manpower to bring it back home(nearly impossible as the change of industrial structure also changes social landscapes). Not like ordering Gestapo police to arrest some innocent tourists, or break open the door behind which some undocumented people from outside might live.

Dollar seen as risky currency Isn't it exactly what DT wants? If USA no longer wants to be involved in the trade with others, Why Not Vice Versa? The more Isolationists policy he stresses, the more countries start to distance themselves from USD. Makes a perfect sense. In terms of BRICS' ex-USD move, Thailand is also taking part in it. Not the full member, but as the "partner". Member states of BRICS - Wikipedia

USD has been the key currency for decades. Because of its wide range of involvements in the world business, not just by the size of its economy. When US of A cuts ties with the rest of the world, it is just like weakening its influence by itself. And it is what DT is trying to do now.

History is continuous. One major event(attainment) is based upon the accumulation from the past. It just doesn't Pop Up all of sudden. That's why I said "centuries".

It took centuries to establish its status. But takes less than seconds to lose it, thanks to the economic terrorist in White House today.

What's wrong about not being futuristic? Thai people often value "present time", a lot more than any "unforeseen" future. And the Future doesn't always look so bright.

No more Brown Envelop under the table? Instead, direct debit to your account.

For himself, or someone else at the other end?

Wait for their Modification, Lol.

For the westerners, often difficult to tell the nationality/ethnicity of the people in Asia. Mistaking him for Chinese, wouldn't mean they are racists.

Good morning. Thank you for the best joke of the day. I really liked your this post.

Another c/in at BKK Hilton. In Thailand, attempted terrorism will be subject to severe punishment(min. 10 yrs). punishment of attempted terrorism in thailand - Google Search

Wide range of choice from the Hard Currencies. To pick one from the above that suits own need. Some prefer EUR, some might GBP, AUD etc (certainly not Russian Rouble, N/Korean Won). In foreign exchange dynamics, when one major currency falls, others(in other economic region) often rise). Strength of the money depends on the level of trust that issuing country gains from the outside world. Factors: Trade and current account balance, political/social stability, unemployment rate, GDP-Debt ratio etc. Even though it sometimes moves in the way defying economic fundamentals (by the influx of speculative fund).

His death is self-inflicted. The cop only looked like acting defensively. Did his best to calm down that man.
