Yep. Looks like the view from Gotemba. Nice place to stay if you enjoy skiing on Fuji.
Air fares have more than doubled since last time I visited in 2019, so not sure how many Thais are actually visiting Japan, as opposed to it being a "most desired" destination described in the OP. Pretty misleading storyline, tbh..

Iran is state sponsoring the Hezbollah, Hamas and other terrorists splinter groups with billions of dollars and weaponry and bases, those who's sole quest is to destroy others...
Iran has to be rather scared of the regime-change intended for it by Israel-backed US Govt.
It's not really 'jew-haters' expressing protests and dissent against an ultra-Zionist regime that is carrying out a massive land-grab and persecution of Palestinians. A lot of actual Israelis hate what is being done in their name.
Israel, btw, is the country with all the nukes in that part of the world.

2 hours ago, The Fugitive said:March/April can sometimes be just too much in Thailand. So hot that you want to be somewhere else.
Agree. I normally take April off in the UK and other parts of Europe.
All round I'd say the weather here is fine (for me, anyway), even residing in hot 'n sticky Rayong, E. Thailand.
Certainly, spending a full Winter in the UK seems a lot more daunting. And expensive.
Perspective, and all that.

Pent-up demand (post-Covid) for holidays here will subside next year, when the cost of air fares will still be daunting for a lot of people paying crazy prices for energy and food this Winter . Tourism can't be relied on for Thailand's economy. -Even at pre-pandemic levels, it only accounted for around 12% of GDP..
The sky-high Baht really needs to be addressed. For exports and tourism.

None that were issued under an "emergency use authorization" (still are, btw), with no long term safety reports. From pharma companies that had never brought a vaccine to market before, or for having to be coerced into having products that aren't really "vaccines" double-jabbed to travel or continue in employment?
Otherwise, yes.

Not sure who you're referring to, here?
But, seen a few different reports from undertakers in different countries reporting severe blood-clotting issues:
QuoteIn June, a pathologist who heads one of America’s leading labs, Dr. Ryan Cole, said he was finding unusually long blood clots, as long as one foot, in the bodies of deceased people who received COVID-19 vaccines.
But, when you have supposed first world countries reporting "unknown causes" as a leading cause of death among mainly young people, there should be some cause for major concern.
QuoteMany countries saw 18% excess deaths during the two years of the pandemic. There should have been a drop in excess deaths as we got COVID under control. More people who would have died this year from old age and natural causes died in the past 2 years from covid. Therefore, this year’s excess deaths should be below average. Excess deaths are at the 10-20% level in many countries even as COVID deaths droped and gone from pandemic to epidemic.
In England and Wales, for 14 of the past 15 weeks, around 1,000 extra deaths each week, (none of which are due to covid. IF the current trajectory continues, then non-Covid excess deaths will be more than COVID deaths this year. This was reported by Prof Carl Heneghan, director of the Centre for Evidence Based Medicine, Oxford University.

Also, Covid MRNA vax are in a class of their own when it comes to injuries.
Not to be compared with other run-of-the-mill vs
There are a lot of undertakers now reporting serious blood clot formations in the veins and arteries of people who previously had no health issues before the m-RNA shots.
Also, a lot of young people suddenly dying.
Quote"Giving the condition a name, Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS), would lead to greater understanding of the scale of the problem".

If you are only holding (centralized) digital money, it's just numbers on a screen. You actually own nothing.
These numbers on a screen can be credited or deducted, depending on your behaviour. It's about controlling populations, not ease of business or shopping transactions.
This is actually happening in China, and their "social credit" system:
QuoteStarting in 2009, the Chinese government began testing a national reputation system based on a citizen’s economic and social reputation, or “social credit.” This social credit score can be used to reward or punish certain behaviors. The idea is that the state can give or takeaway points from a social credit score in order to engineer good behavior from the people.
By late 2019, Chinese citizens were losing points on their score for dishonest and fraudulent financial behavior, playing loud music, eating on public transportation, jaywalking, running red lights, failing to appear at doctor appointments, missing job interviews or hotel reservations without canceling, and incorrectly sorting waste. To raise one’s social credit score a Chinese citizen can donate blood, donate to an approved charity, volunteer for community service, and other activities approved by the government. The Chinese government has begun to deny millions of people the ability to purchase plane and high-speed rail tickets due to low social credit scores and being labeled “untrustworthy.”

12400 million baht ?
That money could help building a sustainable energy network around Thailand ... anyway , what are they planning to do with that submarine ?
Turn it into a floating reef / barnacle farm, a la HTMS Chakri Naruebet, the Thai national aircraft carrier.? ????

I just watched a video where they say it is only 12% of GDP, but then we hear all kinds of numbers up to 23%, so which is it, and then you have the soft underbelly where income is absorbed and earned by the unregistered and never reported. Makes one wonder.
I think the actual tourism GDP has been consistently mooted at only 12% for a few years now.
But it employs a huge number of people here.

The Ministry of Public Health is encouraging the general public to keep up with their COVID-19 vaccinations, as the majority of severe cases and deaths occur among the unvaccinated and those who did not get their boosters.
Well, they would now, wouldn't they.?

Trump was also elected.
At least over there some people understand that doesn't allow him to be above the law.
But then, many voters over there are just as ignorant as many Thais.
Yes, elected. Not sure what Trump has to do with this thread, apart from trying to frame the democratic principle as somehow wrong..?
Who's ignorant here, then?

He was the first democratically elected prime minister of Thailand to serve a full term and was re-elected in 2005 by an overwhelming majority..
Since replaced by the barrel of a gun.

After a huge deluge of rain here in Rayong, it got cooler for a few days (at the start of November).
Back to heat and humidity (and thundershowers) again though. ????
TAT Governor: Thailand aiming for 80% of pre-pandemic tourism revenue within 2023
in Thailand News
Posted
Appreciate the positive outlook, but I'm not sure how much recent tourist volume is due to pent-up demand following Covid, and thus short-term only. Factor in rising airfares, inflation, and what will be criminally high energy bills for a lot of countries this Winter, and I'm not sure how long this will last into 2023.
