China Railway No.10 Accused of Abandoning ฿657m Phrae Project
Feels like it's business as usual in Thailand to take the money for a project then do a half job, to show something then disappear with most of the money. I lost 1.5M Baht 3 months ago the same way, that's how they make money, after 2MB paid, the job was not even worth 1/4 of the payment. Then disappear and they're still there looking for new customers to steal. Many people got even worse, I was lucky to exit the scam early. Will I eve see the $ even after suing? Never! TiT.

Thailand EV Charging Price Rise Threatens Cost Advantage
Just tried On-Ion charging network for the first time, that thing is a total rip off !!! A 2 hours and 11 minutes (2:11) charge for topping a mere 14kWh, I paid 180 baht. only added 20% on the BYD battery.

How could you pass Ventilation Seat? 🤣 If you want more power the Long Range is very good, the 170PS is just borderline if you take highway often. 245PS that is a LOT better.

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
Bro, you got confused, this is correct. This is not a BEV (Battery EV), this pick-up is a REEV (Range Extender EV) and the world's first REEV Pickup. The Nissan Kicks is another very good REEV car that's been around for a while. REEV means the Gasoline engine is just a generator in the car, it produces electricity to charge the battery. the combustion engine will not drive the car like in other Hybrid cars. I personally think this is great from engineering standpoint, much better experience compared to PHEV. I love this design, and it has many benefits, just not perfect like BEV, still great for many applications and use. - The engine will be always running at the optimum RPM, producing the most torque using the least gasoline. - The engine only needs to run when needed, you can still enjoy the silence of having your BEV in a shopping mall parking lot without polluting. - The driving experience is same as BEV, smooth and precise. - There is no gears or transmission, and the Fluid changes will be cheaper than a Hybrid car.

Air suspension, it's better move I stay away from them. To me would be ok if car was locally assembled and the part is easily available locally (import from China). The 7X is a CBU and very high tech to be assembled locally. I still prefer to pay for a chinese car air suspension than a German car! the german will come from china anyways 😄 Long range is 200K Baht more than the standard for extra 25kWh, AR HUD 36.21" and pro sound system (21 speakers vs 10) is it really worth it the extra weight and money? the 100kWh is NMC too! in 10-12 years it will be holding only 75kWh

Thai Authorities Raid Bitcoin Mines Tied to Scam Networks
wow, that's actually very cheap to produce Bitcoin in Thailand? is it legal if I pay the bills and they dont look crazy expensive? the getting the hardware is another question. anyways, in reality, It is likely closer to 1.0M – 1.4M THB per coin depending on the specific miner efficiency.

Have you noticed the hidden giant here: The "Geely Ecosystem" If you look closely at the data, the fragmentation of Chinese brands masks the true scale of the disruption. If we aggregate the Geely Holding Group brands from that list, the picture changes: Geely (No. 6): 3,151 units Zeekr (No. 15): 871 units Volvo (No. 29): 217 units Geely Riddara (No. 26): 336 units (Electric Pickup) Lotus (Unlisted/Low Vol): N/A Total Geely Group: ~4,575 units. Technical Implication: This effectively places Geely at No. 2, surpassing Honda (4,340 units) and BYD (4,292 units). There are many good reasons to buy an ICE car. The most obvious is the economics for those that dont do many KMs a year, most substantial when it comes to hybrids that can do 18-24km/L. The insurance is much cheaper offsetting the Oil change requirements. it is even cheaper to own a Yaris Ativ HEV than an EV car. you pay at least 10,000 baht more for insurance, but the oil changes and maintenance yearly is always going to be less than that. WOW, the Zeekr is mind blowing! I was hooked with the IM6, but the Zeekr 7X is so much nicer! I always wanted a car with digital side mirrors! I might have it one day 🙂

well, the IM6 is on the quasi-900V (875v) and the NMC battery can cost up to 20% more than the LFP. The base model has a lot stripped out, quite a lot, like only 2 airbags, no LED, most of the drive assisting features gone, and 17"Steel wheel with plastic cover! they went very far to make it cheaper. however the mid spec really looks right and good pricing. I'm very tempted, because I decided to get the Hilux Champ, but for 200k more, I could get this very nice pickup that could also function as a main car and also cover my farming requirements, and very cheap 10 years ownership.

Just bought this synthetic block weed
You have no idea how good Trims can be. for the past year I only buy Indoor Trims (top grade). it's way, wayyyyy better than any of those greenhouse/evap flower expensive buds. and no need to grind, just pop it right into my dynavap! The other day I got 100g Red Velvet and 50g of Falcon9, for 1200baht the whole 150g, lasts me 6-12 months and I usually trow away after 1 year. Red velvet tastes amazing, I can really feel the sweetness and the tastes... those greenhouse taste nothing! anyways, they are hard to find, so I'm not sharing my sources, dont even bother to ask.

Our relatives had their BYD Dolphin and Honda City completely submerged in mud for 2 days in Hat Yai. very sadly, both cars are total loss because the water was very muddy, there will be mud in every inch inside those cars. She is pregnant for 8 months, and had to walk 2 km at 4am with the water level at the neck to reach safe locations. Now everyone is here safely.

Cabinet Approves Tax Deduction for Home Solar Systems
Good move for sure! There are plenty of companies that can install, some are really good. it's not that hard to install thou, the trick part is the final details in the switches and cabling to ensure it will last. In electrical systems, the details are the most important. i'll get a new 5kW setup next year but wont be able to do tax deductions, not possible on the 15% flat BOI tax 😄 I plan to do it just to boost my voltage up, here in the country side it's kinda weak, cant even use 7kW EV charger... have to stick with 2kW.

with 245 you will definitely suffer range impact, at least 5% or more. On another note, it's crazy stupid how the new made-in-th BYD Atto 3s are sold with a 235 rites on a RIM designed for 215. it's looks horrendous, that rim is only 18x7.0" !!! I got 18x8.5" that looks good with 245, but the motor only has 310NM of torque, I stick with 225-235.

well, 255/35 tires do not like potholes 🤣 so, how do you like that tires profile on the Seal? did the EV range drop too much? I'm planning to have my next tires 235/45 -- I dont dare going 35.

Factory suspension tuning shop Hua Hin or Bangkok
not sure what you mean there... isn't coil over is a part of the macpherson design. or perhaps you mean you hate the McPherson design (limited camber gain during cornering) and want to convert the car to a Double Wishbone or Multi-link setup? I think that is not easy 😄, but I understand why you want that. The BYD Sealion 7 has a multi-link rear suspension and double-wishbone front suspension. The car handle so good, it's impressive, I test drove so many cars, the SL7 handles the best for anything under 1.5M baht. They even added a Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) shock absorbers as icing in the cake!

Factory suspension tuning shop Hua Hin or Bangkok
I would only go that route if there are no options for a shock upgrade from TEIN or YSS. Normally I dont believe those magic work reviews... you can get either YSS or TEIN between 12,000-24,000 baht. which doesn't require any modifications to the strut assembly and linked arm, and is only 0.1% of the car cost, providing a 90% ride improvements over stock 12-24K Baht on a suspension i think is the second best upgrade, after tires upgrade to ultra premium models. I have the Tein Endura Pro on the Atto3 and it's transformed the car into a very capable sport car.

suspension setup can go terribly worse if the user dont know how it works and which part of the suspension to replace. what probably can happen is that the shock and the spring rates dont match, and he changed the wrong one. an example: I see on the internet something nobody should do ever. YSS promotes the sport and comfort springs for the BYD atto 3. if you do that the car will be much, much worse. It will be even dangerous. here, the shocks are the problem, hardly it's the springs in most cars. So, you keep the stock springs and only change the Shock absorber. 99% of the time, this is the best setup. Most cars springs are on the right rate, the problem is in the shock absorbers that are cheap OEM, made to last, but they work very slow, lack in technology, cant rebound fast enough, performs just only good for low speed test drives. I have changed Atto3 with a TEIN Endura pro, while keeping stock springs, the cars handles amazing sharp and very sporty. I can now go into corners at high speed and at the apex rocket it out very stable and planted on the road. before with original shocks, very scary to do that.

Looks stunning! However, there is no way it will be priced like the Chinese brands. maybe less Toyota-stupid, and it might sell some. Should at least have more power. It doesnt feel enough for their top tier sedan. 280-320HP would be better.

Thailand's Rice Industry Faces Decline Amid Global Competition
This is already a big issue visible today. New inherited farms, many are declining, the new generation wants to live in the city, don't want to take care of the land, the pay in the city is good, another factor. Those living in the city will hire people to continue the work, and you know what happens when nobody is checking the work . Can see Many palm and rubber farms abandoned , many are transferring to Durian ( the new gold rush).
