  1. It almost seems like it's just about getting more money from foreigners rather than pursuing any kind of strategy.
  2. This is the obvious question, but we won't get an official answer - because the answer is also obvious.
  3. The fact that it's a couple of Jews who get to decide whether Biden runs again or not tells you all you need to know about who controls American politics.
  4. If I were a dictator, you're exactly the kind of person I would want to have as my subjects: people who believe that they have no rights - and don't deserve them either.
  5. It's one thing to search a person's bags for contraband such as drugs and weapons, etc., (which I agree they have the right to do). It's an altogether different matter to search their phones (and computers) for whatever it is they are looking for there.
  6. Still, all of that stuff is none of their business. The right to privacy is a fundamental human right.
  7. YOU might think that you have nothing to hide. But it all depends on what they are looking for. In any case, this is a gross violation of privacy. It is unacceptable.
  8. I hope this is the start of a trend: https://petersweden.substack.com/p/huge-norway-goes-against-cashless
  9. I use cash for 90% of my transactions - deliberately. The only things I pay by bank transfer are my rent, my internet, and my electricity bill - for MY convenience. I don't object to cashless payments being an option - as long as I get to choose how to make the payment. The obvious intention, though, is to woo us with the convenience of digital payments, then to switch to digital payments being the only option. At that point, we are slaves - because if you are a dissenter, the government can just switch off your ability to use your own money. China is already an example of that. And don't think that every other government in the world would not love to do the same thing.
  10. Poor Jews. All they want is to be able to commit genocide with impunity, and for NO reason, people hate them!
  11. This is just a way to trick people into accepting enslavement via a Central Bank Digital Currency.
  12. Cancel the policy. If they are lying to you before you even get the policy, what do you think they will do later, when you need them? Find another company - one that doesn't lie quite as blatantly.
  13. I used this company when I moved from Bangkok to Saigon some years ago, as well as for two local moves within Saigon. They were extremely professional with the packing and moving and unpacking. And they also have an option for insurance. You can find the details on their website at the following link: https://www.santaferelo.com/en/your-thailand-moving-company/
  14. This is the bag that I have been using for the past year. It's very light, yet very sturdy. And quite spacious. So far I am quite satisfied with it. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/eagle-creek-expanse-2-wheeled-intl-carryon-2-215-i4476512219-s18079138286.html
  15. FYI: It's "Tumi", not "Tumo"; and "American Tourister", not American Traveller. https://www.tumi.com https://shop.americantourister.com
  16. I just got back from Mega Bang Na, and by coincidence I went into the stand-alone Samsonite store there. Maybe it's new, as I don't think I had seen it before. It had quite a large selection of suitcases on display. From the Samsonite Thailand website: https://www.samsonite.co.th/th/stores SHOP MEGA BANGNA ROOM 1338, 1ST FLOOR, MEGA BANGNA 38, 38/1-3, 39, MOO 6, BANG NA-TRAT FRONTAGE ROAD, BANG KAEO, BANG PHLI,SAMUT PRAKARN,10540 027619979
  17. Given a choice between these two airlines, I would choose Nok Air. They just seem to treat passengers better.
  18. Songkran is the only "celebration" that I know of that people (including myself) actually flee a country to avoid.
  19. How does he know that? Maybe he did it before but just forgot about it.
  20. They should actually eliminate all zebra crossings in Thailand. All they do is give pedestrians, especially foreign ones, a false sense of security.
