Rising Baht Sparks Fears of Another 'Tom Yam Kung' Crisis
CallumWK replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Which means, at the end of the day still foreign currency is used to buy the Thai baht they use to pay the local supplier. Doesn't matter if that was done today, yesterday or last month. -

Even CC card companies have to use foreign currency to buy Thai baht, or you want to claim they just print it? -
Rising Baht Sparks Fears of Another 'Tom Yam Kung' Crisis
CallumWK replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Funny? No it is not, foreign currency is transferred to Thailand, and exchanged to Thai baht at the Thai bank. Everyone, except you I guess, know that offers the best exchange rate. Nobody sends Thai baht to Thailand. And you think that tourists bring baht to Thailand to spend here? -

You mean the hotel costs are not transferred to Thailand, so the hotel let them stay for free? And all the money they spend on their holidays, are not spent in Thailand? -
Thanks, but not sure what you mean with options. I know how to search for appliances and find the prices. The cheapest I can get a new cell for my zodiac tri large is about 19000 baht, and I have no intention to pay that. This is directly from Australia with an Aussie$ at all-time lows, so I can expect next renewal to probably a lot more. I have searched for cells from other brand chlorinators and they are similar priced, but I don't even think about installing a complete new setup, especially not Emaux which is the cheapest. If there is anything you want share please post it here, so everyone has a use for it.

I have a Zodiac Tri large saltwater chlorinator, for many years, with which I'm pretty satisfied. End of 2016 I purchased a new genuine salt cell from a dealer in Australia, and paid 350 Aussie $ + shipping. Now I want to order another replacement, and price from the same dealer is now 875 Aussie $ (19600 baht) . I looked at other sources, and other brands, and they're same or even more. Is it time to trash my chlorinator and start with adding chlorine instead?

Thailand has one of the best and fastest internet in the world, but everything comes at a price of course. If you only want to pay 1700 per year for an unlimited data sim, you can not expect to have the best speeds

Straight out of the mouth of one of the supporting news channels. Kamala Harris fails to make clear how she will pay for ‘$1.6 trillion’ family giveaway https://www.yahoo.com/news/kamala-harris-fails-clear-she-144839559.html Ms Ruhle, speaking after the interview was broadcast, said that the vice president “doesn’t answer the question” and would be forced to borrow more to fund her campaign giveaways. “If the GOP is controlling the Senate, if she can’t raise corporate taxes, where is she going to get the money from to expand the child tax credit and do whatever she wants to do?’” she said on MSNBC. “And she says, ‘we just have to do it.’ “That’s great and that’s a campaign promise, but the issue is, if it means we’re going to just borrow again, then what we’re doing is we’re just never addressing the deficit.”

I remember after the 2011 floods Bangkok people massively started buying land and property in Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai, because it was safe of flooding. -

Chinese man calls Thai women prostitutes sparking online outrage
CallumWK replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I wonder where he got that from https://www.endslaverynow.org/blog/articles/history-of-prostitution-and-sex-trafficking-in-thailand From the mid-1300s to the mid-1700s prostitution was legal and taxed by the Thai government. The late 1700s to the 1850s witnessed an influx in the number of Chinese labor workers and sex workers coming to Thailand. Prostitution flourished especially after the abolishment of slavery in 1905 as former slave wives under the feudal system found themselves alone and without financial support. Then, the Japanese occupation during World War II popularized sex massage parlors.- 163 replies

Trump Surges in Latest Top Poll 538 Predictions
CallumWK replied to Social Media's topic in World News
What else had you expected? Harris did well in the polls in the early days of her campaign, because she replaced some dement individual nobody would vote for. As time progresses, people hear her word salad of avoiding answering questions, and hiding for interviews. It can only get worse for her in the next 6 weeks. Will it be about growing up in a middle class neighborhood where everyone had a nice front lawn? -
Thai Baht's Strength Poses Economic Challenges: Economists Warn
CallumWK replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Maybe read my post again, slowly, because I didn't say anything about that . I said the seller will adjust his sales price in USD to the exchange rate at that moment. Nothing to do with forex or whatever else you think to read in my post
