https://aseannow.com/rss/44-thailand-news.xml/National and regional news from all around Thailanden50 years ago (and before) the world functioned by "office folders". Governement, business, the whole economy. Listed by A B C. Snail mail, but on every street corner, there was a phone booth. Everything a bit slower than today, but the fundament of todays "progress" was built on "office folders". Not to forget: During the phase of "office folders", THE WORLD FUNCTIONED PERFECTLY WELL, just slower. During the phase of the "office folder world", most inventions were made. What came after 1930 is just "refinement" of inventions made before. Exception: The computer. Otherwise we have nothing fundamentally invented anything new since 1930. And all this during the time of "office folders".Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:50:55 +0000" any further comment would be superfluous."Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:46:48 +0000Even benefit from it all.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:46:16 +0000You are suggesting BBL. From the OP... "Later found work around but am dismayed @ blue bank's policy." Ridiculous thread. OP started thread and never then engaged. Seems he found "a work around" BTW: not a given it was BBL. Many tellers have limited knowledge of things such as Bank Letter.

Vaguely recall at eg folk trying to apply for reentry permit at Nong khai border crossing and being sent to nearest immigration office. Best to play it safe and apply at local immigration office or international airport.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:44:50 +0000The quote that you show was not written by meWed, 01 Jul 2026 14:39:53 +0000I'm a swing voter, but I haven't voted since living here full time. And after all of this, you have accumulated such a large nest egg that you still qualify for the old aged pension. 🤣🤣 "Pull the other one, it plays jingle bells" Olmate. 🙂Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:38:44 +0000I’m looking to buy original tteok without flavorings, either frozen or chilled or the shelf stable kind (or even those Chinese blocks that look similar). The sticks, slices, and ball kinds would all be good (ideally the latter two though). I’ve tried Tops, UFM Fuji, Makotoya, and only Villa market had a few small packs of really chunky sticks which aren’t great. I tried googling for a Korean supermarket near me (near Phrom Phong) and that’s about all that came up so no dice so far. Does anybody know where I can get them in Bangkok, ideally not too far from the Phrom Phong/Asoke/Phra Kanong/On Nut area? I’ve attached some photos in case anybody recognizes it by sight.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:38:30 +0000In this context proportionality should be considereed relative to other conflicts. This link mentions that 20000 children have been killed one way or other by Israel. https://theconversation.com/a-un-report-details-the-overwhelming-scale-of-children-killed-in-gaza-it-raises-grave-legal-questions-286327 The point is that this number surpasses the level of child killing in previous conflicts. The report zeros in on some killings by drone that show that the drone shooting was deliberate.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:36:35 +0000Or in your case: Cheap smartphone. Free WiFi connection.

As said, get it from your local immigration office before travelling.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:31:38 +0000A low value post has been removed: Low-Value Posts - Posts that add no written contribution are not allowed.

However, the symbol isn't angled at 45 degrees like a Nazi swastika and the statue was built in 1901, well before the rise of Nazism, so it isn't connected to Nazism. From the screen grab of the girl's ankle, her tattoo is left facing, so technically not a Nazi swastika. It's confusing, but as I understand it, to tell the religious and Nazi symbols apart: Right-Facing Swastika 卐 This is the true swastika. Symbolizes the sun, luck, and good energy. Commonly used by Hindus and Jains to welcome wealth. Left-Facing Swastika 卍 Turns to the left (counterclockwise). Called a sauwastika. Symbolizes the night, magic, and the goddess Kali. Also used in Buddhism to show the footprints of Buddha. Nazi Swastika: Right facing and tilted at 45 degrees. How to tell the religious symbols apart from the Nazi symbol: In the West, both religious versions of the symbol are often conflated with the Hakenkreuz (hooked cross), which was adopted by the Nazi Party in the early 20th century. However, as stated, the Nazis used a right-facing, 45 degree tilted version of the symbol.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:23:42 +0000A post trolling about another member has been removed.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:22:22 +0000Actually the "Board of Peace" has received hardly any donations, and the Indonesians have dropped out of providing troops for the stabilisation force. I cannot remember whether the Security Council authorized this boondoogle/scam for only a year. Anyway, I hope it can be dissolved ASAP. Meanwhile, IDF is demolishing anything left standing as they continue to gobble Gaza instead fo withdrawing, as was expected in the Trump plan. Besides Netanyahu being appointed to the Board, not long ago Marc Rowan, an ardent Zionis billionaire, joined the Board.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:22:11 +000095f and clear outside, 72 inside at 14 cents per kwh, 1/2 the cost of europe. no serfs dying in the streets of their overcrowded feudal cities under the control of the elite and they have the gall to criticize our lifestyle and politics lolWed, 01 Jul 2026 14:22:01 +0000This is not for you to decide.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:20:46 +0000My reply was to a long standing member who is well aware of which bank the OP was speaking about as he himself has commented on the many topics on this subject. Surprisingly neither yourself nor Caldera have mentioned the bank in question, yet you're both fully aware of which bank he meant. It's the only bank in Thailand that instigated such a policy.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:20:35 +0000Just found this "for State Pension purposes starts on 6 April before their 16th birthday and ends on 5 April before they reach State Pension age’. " Now school leaving age remains 16 however teenagers have to remain in some sort of further education until 18. So why has the qualifying period for pensions been moved into line with what UK law says. ie 16 or 17 year olds should not be working so the two years 16 to 17 should not be considered for pension contributions.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:20:04 +0000Off topic deflection posts and replies about WW2, Hitler, and the Holocaust have been removed.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:20:00 +0000Does any political figure have an answer to the cost-of-living problem?Wed, 01 Jul 2026 14:18:42 +0000Hope will not save you.
