1st Mexico now Canada. Tariffs on hold Like Game of Thrones - bend a knee and all is forgiven.

EU Vows Strong Response to Trump’s Tariff Threats What are they going to do? Huff and puff and hold their breath until they turn blue? That'll show Trump!

He had a will. Re-read the article.

Signed documents or it's fabrication. Honestly, when a "rich" farang parties-hardy with a Thai gal, but keeps the relationship strictly boyfriend/girlfriend, and nothing is in writing - then it's just hearsay. It's not like they were married. Now I'd ask - if the Thai courts were in the same position, ie, a foreign woman lays claim to an inheritance of a Thai man when the sons of the deceased survive him, and there is no explicit will but just the heresay testimony by the girlfriend that her Thai sugar-daddy promised an inheritance - how would that work out? It's a rhetorical question, I know how it would work out.

Trump keen to blame diversity and inclusion for Washington DC crash Could be, but I'll suspend judgement until the NTSB issues it's finding.

Stay up to date on your boosters then. Safe and Effective!

When I first arrived in Thailand eons ago..... ...but just found Thai Visa/AseanNow. These posts never fail to amaze me.

He got my "old" wife's vote.

I used to drive in the mountains on my Wave. You want to be able to shift on the steeps. Like the OP, I tend to be partial to geared motorcycles.

Vaping: Dangerous, competes with Thai tobacco monopolies, and needs to be outlawed. Cigarettes: Perfectly safe, good for your health, and supports Thai tobacco monopolies.

Hire long-stay farangs. We'll do the jobs Thais refuse to do!

"Meet the original “Conspiracy Theorists,” Ronald Reagan and the members of the 99th Congress, who, in 1986, passed into law the “medical misinformation” that vaccines were “unavoidably unsafe” and potentially caused autism." "How can the AAP argue that vaccines are “unavoidably unsafe” in the Supreme Court in order to convince the federal government to grant you liability protection from vaccine injury, and then argue that, “vaccines are safe,” and “vaccines are mostly safe,” before this committee in order to convince the State of Maine to mandate that families receive counseling/buy vaccines from you?" https://brownstone.org/articles/the-99th-congress-that-called-vaccines-unavoidably-unsafe/

Good! was/were

Aka 'bob smith' aka 'BarBoy.'

And I'm sure that those bathroom pictures are meant to shock the Western public. However, you can find the same conditions in almost any old style hong-naam throughout Thailand. Oh, by the way, I have worse memories of the ship's "heads" aboard US navel vessels. Just saying.....

What's the other side of the story or stories. Most accidents can be solved by keeping your cool and negotiating.

That's cute. 100%.

My first car was Herr Hitler's People's Car! I could do all the engine work myself, drove like forever! It's probably still being driven by some hippie pot farmer in Humboldt County, NorCal.

I remain fiercely loyal to cost/quality. I could give a rip about driving a status symbol. I drive a Suzuki Celerio. High quality engineering, 50+ mpg, $10,000 price tag which I paid cash. For what most people pay for their cars, I can buy his and her Celerios. For what the HiSo wannabes pay for their status symbols? I can buy the entire extended family their own Celerio. All of these vehicles have one primary purpose: To get you from point A to point B. What do you need a ฿2,000,000+ THB vehicle for (or even a ฿1,000,000 THB vehicle) is beyond me. However with all that said? If the Celerio finally reaches it expiration date, I'll consider a BYD. I can buy this one cash too. Nice looking rig. "Chinese EV are all s*** made by Chinese slaves who all poop in the streets! Arrrgggghhhh!" "Of course - well, buy a Tesla then. Made in the USA (not really - made in Shanghai, China - but don't tell the racists)

I doubt it. Especially in third-world countries like Thailand. Here's reality: How do you force an entire population to purchase new EVs? The average citizens of Thailand is a debt-slave whose credit is already overextended to the breaking point, which in turn is over-extending the viability of Thai banks and financial institutions? The answer? They can't. At this point Thailand doesn't even have the infrastructure to handle EVs. Gas stations rein. EV charging stations don't. So sure, the government can eventually outlaw ICE vehicles and petrol, but in the process they'll collapse their economies and society to boot. ICE and EVs will both be sharing the roads in 2035 and beyond. Slowly - not by government edict but by consumer choice, especially if new EV are cheaper than ICE vehicles to purchase and operate - then perhaps the majority of citizens eventually will own EVs. Ain't happening anytime soon without tanking the world economies. And if we have a major X-Class CME in the meantime (we're historically way over-due for "The Big One Carrington-style) then all bets are off the table.

Void your visa? Nope. As DrJack mentioned, if you're on a Exit stamp, 90 days resets when you re-enter. 90 day reporting is based on you being in Thailand.

No politician on the planet works in the best interests of their citizens, they work in the best interests of the highest bidders: Oligarchs and corporations. The peons, plebs. and commoners be damned.

It's fun to watch the Greenies self-implode, sorta like a hail storm destroying a solar farm or high winds ripping a wind turbine (running on diesel) apart. Oh, and then like German? Close all your nuclear power plants. This comedy is classic!

I see that "Mr. WIll Have Nothing To Do With Thai Politics" is surrounded by his grandchildren. How touching!

Offering to empty the Thai treasury and give it the "the people" works. As my own wife said, "People are Kwai, they vote for who give them their own money." Exactly - she doesn't vote Pheu Thai. Most of the villager do for the reason about - "free money" from the treasury.
