Heard Island and McDonald Islands are uninhabited...

You sure about that? https://www.nationthailand.com/news/general/40048300 In an exclusive interview with a small group of Thai media on Thursday, Colonel Y, an officer with extensive experience in handling natural disasters worldwide and leader of the Israeli team, shared insights into his team's tireless efforts to locate survivors and recover those tragically lost beneath the rubble of collapsed buildings. "Something inside told me, I know I will get the phone call," he said, explaining their proactive preparations even before the official call for assistance arrived on Saturday morning. Within hours, the team was en route to Thailand. Since their arrival on Sunday afternoon, the Israeli team has been working “shoulder to shoulder” with Thai authorities and other international rescue delegations.

Tesla sales plunged 13% in the first three months of this year Tesla reported that it delivered 336,681 cars in the quarter, compared to 386,810 in the first three months of last year. The Wednesday data represented the company’s worst sales in nearly three years, a drop of 50,000 vehicles from a year ago. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/04/02/business/tesla-sales/index.html

They don't for Singapore. They don't for Malaysia. Why would Thailand be any different?

It will probably be like what happens in Singapore. No problem boarding. On arrival at Changi, there is an area with tablets you can use to complete the form, then you enter via the automated gates. For those who do not know what a tablet is and how to use it, there will be airport staff who will assist, just like supermarkets with self-scan only checkouts.

A two thousand baht phone will suffice; otherwise, there will be alternative options, just like they have at airports in other countries using similar entry procedures. A lot of people in these threads getting all worked up over nothing.

The only people you will be holding up are folk like yourself. Everyone else will use the automated immigration gates. Anyone who has visited Singapore, Malaysia etc. in the last couple of years understands why the new system will be easier and faster.

From the Europe sales data you posted... 2025 Jan-Feb sales down 42.6% year on year from 2024. 2025 Jan-Mar sales when the antics of Musk will really kick-in will be an even better indication of the direction Tesla sales are headed in Europe.

Like most everyone else in this thread, all I see in Bangkok are loads of BYD, MG and some Neta, very few Tesla models. Every time I've driven past my local BYD showroom, there are always people inside looking at the cars. I see Mitsubishi, Ford, Toyota, Honda dealers all over the place, but I can't recall ever seeing a Tesla dealer. I find it hard to believe Tesla could have a 39% market share in Thailand.

I recently installed the SCB app like my local (excellent) branch staff kept suggesting. In three months I've had to attend my branch three times. Got locked from the app twice for no apparent reason. The call center said I needed to identify myself in person. The other time my app was blocked due to a suspicious transaction. The call center couldn't tell me the problem; they just said I needed to go to the branch. I spent nearly an hour at the branch with three staff going through my transactions for the last three years. Finally, they told me there was a suspicious transaction from overseas... when I showed them it was me transferring funds from overseas to my account, just like I had done multiple times for years, they gave up and unblocked the app for me. When I went in to the branch, I was seen to immediately. By the time I finished, there were about twenty people waiting to see a staff member... not my fault.. 🙂

The big problem with high PM2.5 levels, is most people do not understand the damage you can do to your lungs living here for years. By the time you do, you are on your way to having COPD.
