Oh, I know, because it's all inconvenient and doesn't fit in with certain "narratives" and agendas... optics are not good when you are selective on who you call out for misdeeds.</description><pubDate>Sun, 24 May 2026 08:39:04 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The Left Over played their hand,Turned into a sick cult,News</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395255-the-left-over-played-their-handturned-into-a-sick-cultnews/?do=findComment&comment=20520994]]></link><description>I have some empathy for people who have been scammed into bad decisions.

It's a little early to be reporting random crazies on scooters going around stabbing people.  Not a good look for tourism.  And it may not be true, given the sad state of repair on a lot of scooters that could cause bad injuries on passerby's.  Also, hopefully we'll be getting updates.</description><pubDate>Sun, 24 May 2026 08:32:45 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Papers lost from Passport.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395041-papers-lost-from-passport/?do=findComment&comment=20520985]]></link><description>Did I miss something here?

As VDH said, they&#x2019;re furious that society still rewards people who get useful degrees, build things, solve real problems, and create wealth.Instead of taking any personal responsibility for choosing grievance studies, gender theory, or other low value degrees with zero market demand,( I call it the SJW approach) they&#x2019;d rather burn everything down and blame Trump, systemic racism, capitalism, or whatever the current boogeyman is.  They have no one to blame but themselves for their poor life outcomes  so they blame everyone else.

My plan would be to stop teaching in-class when my legs give out(!), then move to Thailand to continue online teaching using a DTV, and then change that to a 'retirement' extension and no more online teaching when the 5-year term is completed.  I know that I would need to apply for the DTV 'online' when I'm outside Thailand, and I need to show proof of 500k THB or equivalent in a bank account.  Since I already have a instant-access account with Bangkok Bank for 25 years, can I use this account to hold my 500k?  I am paid from overseas into my Wise bank account, and then each month I can transfer this to my Bangkok Bank account.  If this is acceptable, do I need to show that those funds came from overseas (as per the 'retirement' extension requirements?)  Or can I semply send funds at will from Wise to Bangkok Bank as I see fit. (ie -  it is simply required to show the source of those funds (my online employment contracts)?</description><pubDate>Sun, 24 May 2026 08:28:52 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Israel: YOU can call out the brutality...</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395213-israel-you-can-call-out-the-brutality/?do=findComment&comment=20520980]]></link><description>You've fully revealed what you are  All of your "anti Zionist" posts past and future should be viewed with that in mind.</description><pubDate>Sun, 24 May 2026 08:28:41 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Israel: YOU can call out the brutality...</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395213-israel-you-can-call-out-the-brutality/?do=findComment&comment=20520979]]></link><description>Dumb comment</description><pubDate>Sun, 24 May 2026 08:27:57 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Israel: YOU can call out the brutality...</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395213-israel-you-can-call-out-the-brutality/?do=findComment&comment=20520978]]></link><description>Not many here as obsessed as you.</description><pubDate>Sun, 24 May 2026 08:26:30 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Israel: YOU can call out the brutality...</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395213-israel-you-can-call-out-the-brutality/?do=findComment&comment=20520977]]></link><description>Straw man garbage</description><pubDate>Sun, 24 May 2026 08:25:56 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Papers lost from Passport.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395041-papers-lost-from-passport/?do=findComment&comment=20520976]]></link><description>Apart from the OP who has disappeared, do we know what exactly were all gone I reckon it's time to close this thread due to the missing OP, hasn't appeared since posting.
