Yes but Thailand also has non-tariff barriers such as ecise charges that further boost the prices e.g. wine

The prices stated above sound hugely expensive. I have had many BCCs biopsied then removed and never paid more than 6000 baht. Dr Vachiraporn at Chiang Mai Ram hospital is highly skilled in dealing with skin cancers (tarined in the US) and her fees are very reasonable. Due to large number of keratosis and BCCs I have had treated over the last 30 years or so I currently have 6 monthly checkups with Dr Vachiraporn.

I was also getting the error messages, seems okay now.

Quite probably. With orange juice they will add salt

Meanwhile many renters continue to be screwed by landlords for 8 baht a unit

Diamantina Australian beef mince from Makro is outstanding when they have it, lean and not expensive.

... and vitamins

Thailand uses non-tariff barriers such as excise which greatly increase the price of many imported goods.

Traffic congestion in Udon Thani gets worse every year. More vehicles but no new roads.

Worst I have ever seen it in 15 years in Sakon Nakhon - Udon Thani provinces.
