It is not only, in this case, protecting but also selling. The sticker is indeed to put companies label on it, so you buy more from this company, as you are amazed by the good handling and protection. But you pay. And then you throw it away, waste. I never buy an apple in Thailand, there are way more other fruits from Thailand. I can recommend mangostene, jack fruit, nonai, mango, soursop You want crunchy try a farang, not ripe mango. Lots of Thai fruit to explore. Chanel makes perfume, they calculated (in tv docu) how much it would cost to produce. The cost were all done, about 5 euro. Never the less in the shop it will cost you 30, 40 or more euro. That is called profit. And the sticker on bottle and the box shows brand, so you buy again. LEVI orders jeans from China, then send to USA where they tag it with the red LEVI label. Cost in China 25$/jeans, you buying it at 300$. Called profit. and the red LEVI tag makes people crazy to buy. Coffee filters are brown, but they bleach it, so people have nice white coffee filters. If you dont bleach, it saves you a lot of bleach, but they started it once to have it white. So people want white. Washing powder or liquids are normally white/transparent. They put in color to make it look nice. The color doesnt add anything to washing proces, but waste. Yes you throw away all package material, called waste, garbage then. You buy water bottles to drink water, the bottle is waste with stickers on it.

Banks only borrow you money if you have a guarantor. Having an outside bank. You would be a guarantor? I wouldnt. Long time ago, red a story on Thaivisaforum. Daughter had loan, father was guarantor. Though daughter later had good job, she didnt pay off loan and father became the owner to pay. Nice, even own family you cant trust. So you cant get money without a guarantor, but then there is ...the loan shark and you make the wrong decision. I believe "Big Joke" is still focused on this. She has to go police and expose the criminals. Yeah hard, as it can blow up in your face. The things people do for money.

The first one , who made the song The version lots of people know Another version of it, by Ry Cooder and again with a whole new twist in music and again with a more rocky voice Of course the KIng also did a version. Personally like the Jim Reeves version as the best, maybe as I grew up with it. When my father put it on, on the pick up. -

Great band with a very good album, Boston, picked "smoking" from the album Another smokin' song, Motley crue Nice cooperated song from the past, RUN DMC & Aerosmith They had a monster hit with "more than words" , but then if you heard the other songs, quite different. Some one told me to listen as it was hardrock. -

And then? There is micro plastic in many cosmetic products, to make all shine, then in water, so later you have plastic in your veins. And it stays there, will eventually form a clog? Where, of course first in the tiny little veins, including your brain. Thailand still uses pesticides, which western countries already forbid, but not in Thailand. Years ago red the story Thailand wanted to forbid as wel, but never heard since then, they did. -

Came upon this one, when they were really very young. But both didnt get that old. -
Well first i thought it was a homemade, chopped of back side. And first i thought it was a Nissan micra chopped. But no it is an official Daihatsu !! Daihatsu's Thai arm carried on producing the L70 series after it was replaced in Japan, beginning in the second half of 1990. These were built by Daihatsu Phra Nakhon Motor, a joint venture between Daihatsu, Phra Nakhon Automobile, and the C. Itoh trading company.[14] In addition to assembling the regular version, they also developed a ute version for the pickup-hungry Thai domestic market called the Mira P1, which was built from 1990 to 1995. This featured a pickup bed, tailgate, and redesigned taillights. The Mira pickup was extremely popular, with Daihatsu's Thai sales jumping by 50% as a result.

First time band right after that quo followed with this song, gathered some of their albums up to the lie album, then they really changed. Of course this one slipped in, they made many good hard rocking numbers so instead of the common ones, this great song, though my only album of them was "Deep purple , live in Japan" Well you cant forget this one, Eddy (RIP) another guitar player which died recently -

OK some tougher sound Though im already 63, but this one, when i found it, became my all time favorite. If I listen to music then this one always included. Yes, it's very hard, but love it. I have a wide spread in music. Guitar player, who died too young with great songs. Its weird so many guitar players die too young. Garry Moore, Stevie Ray, Rick Parfit and way some more. -

Something quite different Lovely songs she made in younger period, but changed. Never heard of her before until one day i discovered her some years ago on youtube. I could place this, as 9 ties. But for that matter, listen to Thai band, Nanglen band. Yeah they sing in Thai, but make very lovely songs. They are on youtube, facebook. -

New government urged to tackle living costs, support steel industry
xtrnuno41 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
You have to justify if the cost rise of electricity is due to rising cost of fuel. Ukraine war made prises go up. Now it is dropping again, but before people will profit of it , you are way further in time line. Up always goes fast , down sloooow. DOnt know what is problem with iron, as they mostly still use coal. Subsidizing? Happens in lot of countries. In "my" country they subsidize SHELL, ESSO, TATA. Each company for 3 billion euro's. Mostly for putting CO2 in old wells. The first 2 make big profits, but yet subsidized, otherwise stockholders get angry of course. But multinationals and governments, they are 4 hands on one belly. Thailand is on the way with solar panels. However that is cheap energie, panels cost not that much, but electricity is sold in same price as on gas or coal. So you make bigger profit as solar company. Probably thats why you have growing solar power in Thailand. We have the same here as windturbines generate cheap electricity, but is sold on higher prices, based on fuel generated electricity. As in lots of countries, people arent interesting, but companies, yes it is.
