  1. Italian-Thai has nothing to do with Italy. Italian–Thai Development PCL is the umbrella company of Italthai Group although Italthai management insists that, "The management of the Italthai Group and its subsidiaries have nothing whatsoever to do with Italian-Thai Development"[4] Italthai is a group of privately-owned businesses connected to Italian–Thai Development PCL. Its businesses are construction equipment,[5] construction,[6] hospitality,[7] and lifestyle.[8] The group employs more than 5,000 employees in seven countries across Asia Pacific.[9
  2. Maybe YOU should get your facts right. Merkel was born in Hamburg in West Germany. Her family moved to East Germany when she was an infant.
  3. Here is the REALITY of today, instead of your faked AI results. https://www.kroger.com/pl/cage-free-eggs/0200300004?query=egg&searchType=default_search&taxonomyId=0200300004&fulfillment=all https://www.walmart.com/search?q=eggs
  4. So as a true MAGA supporter, you can't be bothered with the truth? And this thread is about eggs in the US, not in Thailand, so great deflection of you. Wholesale prices for eggs have dropped, retail prices hardly have dropped.
  5. In other news today, Musk sells X to himself, xAI. Of course because Trump will give massive funding for AI companies https://finance.yahoo.com/news/musk-says-xai-startup-bought-220735963.html Musk’s xAI Startup Swallows Up X Social Network in Surprise Deal
  6. You buy them by the truck load, right? https://www.newsweek.com/will-americans-feel-trump-egg-price-plunge-2052213 Published Mar 28, 2025 at 2:11 PM EDT Updated Mar 28, 2025 at 4:11 PM EDT Why You're Not Feeling Trump's Egg Price Plunge Egg Prices: Retail vs. Wholesale According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the cost of graded, loose white large-shell eggs in truckload quantities has fallen to $3.27 per dozen. Trading Economics, which tracks daily price changes, found that the price of a dozen eggs had fallen to less than $3 for the first time since October, down from an historic high of $8.17 only weeks ago. But the price tags at America's largest grocers appear to be telling a different story. Kroger is currently selling a dozen Grade A large white eggs for $7.39, while Walmart offers cage-free variants at $7.12, or about 59 cents per egg. Other regional grocers are also showing a similar disparity between wholesale and in-store costs.
  7. https://www.factcheck.org/2025/03/qa-on-egg-prices/ Are egg prices going up or down? That depends on which prices you’re talking about. In remarks on March 16, Trump said that when he began his second term in January, the price of “eggs were through the roof,” but now “are down 35% over a short period of time.” Vice President JD Vance also talked about declining prices on March 14, saying, “Egg prices are lower than they were when we took office.” What neither the president nor vice president made clear is that they were referring to wholesale prices, which is how much retailers pay to farmers and other egg producers to procure eggs to sell in their stores. https://www.newsweek.com/will-americans-feel-trump-egg-price-plunge-2052213 Why You're Not Feeling Trump's Egg Price Plunge Egg Prices: Retail vs. Wholesale According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the cost of graded, loose white large-shell eggs in truckload quantities has fallen to $3.27 per dozen.

  8. So 72 hours before that, you are still in your home country. WHEN SUBMIT? Foreigners should submit their arrival card information 3 days in advance of arriving in Thailand, including the date of arrival.
  9. I still can't view the video guide. When I click the tab it takes me back to the top of th page.
  10. Just curious, you know that without any context or other indication, it is impossible to determine what the poster on an online forum had in mind?
  11. Same here. The old system never worked for me, but the new system has worked since the day it came online. I had one rejection, which was the first report after getting a new passport.
  12. What doesn't work any more? I did my last online report on March 14.
  13. Musk’s DOGE staffers arrive at SEC to hunt for dpending cuts https://finance.yahoo.com/news/musk-doge-staffers-arrive-sec-144123912.html The agency has historically cost the government less in operating expenses than it produces in revenue from fees and enforcement actions. “In effect, the SEC pays for itself and costs taxpayers nothing,” a group of Columbia Law School professors wrote in a blog post this month. “Cutting its staff and budget is thus counterproductive and inflationary.” “Given Mr. Musk’s history with the SEC, it is troubling that he may now be given influence over the agency’s operations,” they wrote to acting Chair Mark Uyeda. Days before Trump’s second inauguration, the SEC sued Musk again. This time, the regulator accused the billionaire of blowing the deadline to disclose his growing stake in Twitter before he tried to take over the social media platform in 2022.
  14. Who would have thought that a MAGA cult troll would post a FAKE picture that was posted on President Musk's X? Below is the REAL speech https://ndla.no/en/r/engelsk-2/we-shall-fight-them-on-the-beaches-by-winston-churchill/c13b8289bb Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.
  15. Video guide on how to update the card doesn't work for me. Am I surprised? Nope
  16. That explains what I experienced here in Pattaya about half hour ago. I was working outside the house, and when I was near the pool suddenly the pool water started moving up and down, by about 5-10 cm. There noticed some air out of the returns as well, although I didn't feel anything. Hope the pool or tubing didn't develop a crack
  17. Using Trump's own vocabulary, I think he is doing a great job, I'm saying a tremendous job, actually. I purchased gold shortly after his inauguration, and it has gone up 12% already, so I bought some more the other day. Keep up the good job Trump
  18. You didn’t get ripped off. https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/business/2025/03/17/thai-mango-sticky-rice-prices-to-stay-high-in-2025-says-kresearch/ With mango being the biggest expense in the dish, 100 bht is a rip-off, and 138 bht as suggested in the article is an even bigger rip-off. According to Kasikorn Research Center report on March 14, 2025, Nam Dok Mai mango prices at the farm level are projected to be around 16.3 baht (48 cents) per kilogram in 2025, down 8.5% from 17.9 baht (53 cents) in 2024. This marks the second year of price decline from the 2023 high of 21.3 baht per kilogram.... อ่านข่าวต้นฉบับได้ที่ : https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/business/2025/03/17/thai-mango-sticky-rice-prices-to-stay-high-in-2025-says-kresearch/
  19. But didn't Thaksin have the solution for that, by moving the debt to private companies, so they would not end up on the blacklist and be able to continue borrowing.
  20. When I visit the shops here in Thailand, it is very obvious to me that inflation is rife for the past few years already.
  21. You can be assured that the word could is a bit misplaced in this context, and that hostile intelligence service HAVE used that data, and most likely have even more data than what Der Spiegel could find.
  22. So in Texas a driver license or state issued ID are not accepted as identification? And as I understand from the below quote, it will be fixed by May 7, or they are stuck in the kitchen, as they can not take a domestic flight or enter a federal facility. REAL ID: Beginning May 7, 2025, every state and territory resident will need a REAL ID compliant license/ID, or another acceptable form of identification, for accessing federal facilities, entering nuclear power plants, and boarding commercial aircraft.
  23. Any ID obtained before married will be tied to birth certificate, otherwise how would they be able to obtain that ID? You are making up things much
