Are you serious? Are we 12 years old?  What your dad has to do with Russia today, is seriously way out of any context or importance to today's situation.  If I'm going that route myself, my dad was a fighter pilot for NATO for decades, flew many NATO missions, and he had a complete different view, so let's not go there.   And no, China has no interest of starting a conflict with NATO. They have everything to lose doing that, they are depending on trade with the West. That's why they have never officially stood behind Russia. Putin is following Xi's wishes in this war, and will never go the nuclear route.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:52:23 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Briton Cuts Living Costs With Move to Chiang Mai</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396634-briton-cuts-living-costs-with-move-to-chiang-mai/?do=findComment&comment=20552689]]></link><description>Only taxed if he makes money.

A already poor Thai that mostly keeps gold and cash to begin with, is not relevant in the baht strength. That is why they not cared to close many foreign accounts too. In 2026 you not look only at GDP but also at wealth distribution.  They not necessarily need to get richer too, as they always are far richer than the rest. Same reason they just sit on the stones, even it could be rented out etc etc. Same why they keep rent prices high, even it makes no sense in any calculation. It's generational wealth.  It's like if you would reset the monopoly game but a few players always start with 5-10M cash more. A reset not solve it.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:43:22 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Trump Administration Ordered to Restore Park Signs</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396686-trump-administration-ordered-to-restore-park-signs/?do=findComment&comment=20552685]]></link><description>Interestingly enough, midnight was the court-ordered deadline to remove his name. Yet at 1:30 a.m., it was still there. He acts like a defiant infant. His parents sent him to the military when he was a child because he was uncontrollable. Maybe it's time to send him back, preferably to the front line in one of his never-ending wars. Many happy returns, Donald. Come to think of it, maybe not back to the WH &#x2014; many others might suggest not anywhere else either.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:42:58 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Bank of Thailand Says Baht Remains Stable</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396629-bank-of-thailand-says-baht-remains-stable/?do=findComment&comment=20552684]]></link><description>i think THB is more stable than pound, dollar and euro</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:42:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Bank of Thailand Says Baht Remains Stable</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396629-bank-of-thailand-says-baht-remains-stable/?do=findComment&comment=20552683]]></link><description>The reason the Thai economy doesn't crash or the baht staying stable is the same reason that GDP looks good on paper, very few own all. That doesn't change the debt levels and real Thais being in a stagnated economy since a decade already.  This is also the issue as it not creates the natural urgency to change. It's also the only reason land prices and real estate prices stay where they are. It actually reveals it all in the wide open without most people realizing it.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:41:34 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Do you believe in Anything?

Spinoza: God is not a man in the sky, but nature itself, the order, the laws, the whole system. Not mystical in the religious sense, but still deep enough to create respect, humility and wonder.  And yes, I also believe in myself, and in the people close to me.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:40:56 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>How Short Is Your Short Term Memory?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396669-how-short-is-your-short-term-memory/?do=findComment&comment=20552681]]></link><description>Sorry, what was the question?</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:40:54 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Russian Fugitive Held at Phuket Villa</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396671-russian-fugitive-held-at-phuket-villa/?do=findComment&comment=20552680]]></link><description>Can only extend a 60 day visa once, which he had already done.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:40:44 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>17 year old girl stabbed in neck</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396636-17-year-old-girl-stabbed-in-neck/?do=findComment&comment=20552679]]></link><description>*it&#x2019;s  And to quote you&#x2026;.  &#x201C;Good grief.

Dear Folks,  Is it not astounding that people believe in Anything, and usually for no particular reason, under the SUN?  What do YOU believe in, just for the heck of it, with no supporting evidence?  Would you say that unsubstantiated beliefs are destroying our World?  What can be done about this?  Should we enforce accountability for idle beliefs, far more than we do?  How many teachers and politicians pontificate and act on their beliefs, illogically, to the detriment of the common citizen, and the average gifted student?  How many times have you been hurt and damaged by others&#x2019; zany beliefs?  I am not referring to the Jim Jones types. I am talking about the people that are in authority. I am talking about people who express beliefs on TV, even.  How do you deal with this?  Do you just do your best to ignore them, and go about your business?  Or, do you become worked up to the point that your frustration and exasperation causes you to lose sleep, lose weight, or become obese?  I am not talking about tolerance, which is a good thing. I am asking what strategies you use to live a happy life without being bombarded by false beliefs, false prophets, and the effects of fools in authority in our world.  And, yes, the belief in God is just one of many examples, in case you might be wondering.   Best regards, And I do NOT believe in Anything&#x2026;. How could I&#x2026;???   Gamma   Please Note:  While I am on the subject of NOT believing in ANYTHING, I have been enjoying these three YT Vids&#x2026;..The first is EXCELLENT&#x2026;..by the way&#x2026;.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:36:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Your current leading locations for a Plan B backup to Thailand?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396672-your-current-leading-locations-for-a-plan-b-backup-to-thailand/?do=findComment&comment=20552677]]></link><description>Some criteria which may not get enough attention:  natural disaster risk (esp. earthquake and hurricane/typhoon) public transportation current level and outlook for future anti-gentrification sentiment political disposition of government towards Western immigration walkability/bikeability homelessness/ drug dealing/addiction levels bureaucracy (not necessarily immigration authorities) but things like banking, renting an apartment, getting medical insurance potential for climate related or political instability induced mass immigration flows</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:35:44 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Retirement Visa - Combination Method  - Clarification</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396652-retirement-visa-combination-method-clarification/?do=findComment&comment=20552676]]></link><description>You misunderstood my post, I suggest you re-read  it,  Whilst visiting for TM30 purposes I shall enquire about their position on the combination method  - is that clear?</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:32:56 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Politics, PC, un-PC, any subject, Satire via MEME or Vid (shorts)</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1325294-politics-pc-un-pc-any-subject-satire-via-meme-or-vid-shorts/?do=findComment&comment=20552675]]></link><description>&#x1F602;</description><enclosure url="https://assets.aseannow.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2026_06/Screenshot_2026-06-14-16-28-18-762_com.twitter.android.png.646ad622c4b7215ecdbcd4cffce2775f.png" length="91715" type="image/png"/><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:32:11 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Why no British or Irish pubs outside of Sukhumvit?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396597-why-no-british-or-irish-pubs-outside-of-sukhumvit/?do=findComment&comment=20552674]]></link><description>How would you know if you rarely go?</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:31:19 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Tommy Robinson's Moscow trip sparks fresh storm</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396481-tommy-robinsons-moscow-trip-sparks-fresh-storm/?do=findComment&comment=20552673]]></link><description>Hey' Tommy More romper chomper outrage keep up the good work.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:30:55 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Bank of Thailand Says Baht Remains Stable</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396629-bank-of-thailand-says-baht-remains-stable/?do=findComment&comment=20552672]]></link><description>What he should have said is " The Baht remains manipulated and over priced"... pfft.</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:30:50 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Word Association - 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1383425-word-association-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20552671]]></link><description>Stadium</description><pubDate>Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:30:34 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Epstein Victim Describes Visits to Andrew&#x2019;s Royal Residences</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396361-epstein-victim-describes-visits-to-andrews-royal-residences/?do=findComment&comment=20552670]]></link><description>er masterpiece from the personification of rationality.
