I have no links to the USA and couldn&#x2019;t really careless if it enjoys being a laughing stock. Back to back 80 year old presidents says a lot about the sorry state of its politics.   I can remember that during the Cold War Russia was derided for having a series of very elderly leaders, until Gorbachev came along. But I&#x2019;m not sure that even they were in their 80&#x2019;s.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:50:35 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Continued Vietnam Tourism Growth Challenges Thailand</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397104-continued-vietnam-tourism-growth-challenges-thailand/?do=findComment&comment=20562200]]></link><description>Well said.

They have very very low crime rates but no death penalty for general crime. Therefore the lack of a death penalty causes low crime. Not many people speed there - and I know you like the speeding analogy - but there is no death penalty for speeding, therefore not having the death penalty decreases speeding. This is the strength of your argument.  Switzerland has low murder rates and high gun ownership. Therefore high gun ownership causes low murder rates. There's another similar argument to yours. It is nonsense.   Canada had the death penalty then abolished it. Murder rates actually declined afterwards, although of course that is not due to the abolition. However you would expect them to increase, no? Because it was such a deterrent?  The UK had the death penalty and then got rid of it. There was no spike in murders. Same as most European countries that continue to have low murder rates. America has very high murder rates and the death penalty in many states.  Of course it is impossible to prove one way or the other, but circumstantial evidence is pretty clear if you look what happened to countries or states that once had it then got rid of it.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:39:57 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>UK would be blocked from rejoining the EU</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396850-uk-would-be-blocked-from-rejoining-the-eu/?do=findComment&comment=20562195]]></link><description>Michel Barnier also disagrees with Juncker.    https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jun/18/uk-could-keep-special-pre-brexit-terms-if-it-rejoined-eu-michel-barnier-says</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:39:46 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Italy's Meloni Rebukes Trump Over &#x2018;Begged for Photo&#x2019; Claim</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397103-italys-meloni-rebukes-trump-over-begged-for-photo-claim/?do=findComment&comment=20562194]]></link><description>This made me laugh out loud.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:39:37 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Rescuers Trying to Save Dogs Trapped in Bang Lamung Water Pit</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397110-rescuers-trying-to-save-dogs-trapped-in-bang-lamung-water-pit/?do=findComment&comment=20562193]]></link><description>What is your favorite XiangRou Recipe?

Also, nobody is trying to chase expats out of Thailand. You make it sound like expats are some kind of golden charity. Most of us came here for our own reasons ie work, retirement, lifestyle, family, etc  not to save Thailand.  Sure, some people help local families, schools or charities but that's being part of the community, not being a savior.  I agree that nominee ownership has been going on for decades. When I first moved here, plenty of people told me it was normal and nothing to worry about. I still chose to buy a condo because I've never trusted the idea that a law can be ignored forever just because everyone does it and just because something has been tolerated for years doesn't make it legal.  Governments can decide to start enforcing existing laws at any time.  Same thing happened with illegal immigration in the US. Crossing the boarder without authorization was never legal. Millions did it and for years enforcement was inconsistent.  Then enforcement changed. The law didn't change, the enforcement did.  Nobody should be shocked that authorities are enforcing laws that have been on the books for years. It's not like this is something new this has happened in the past, every few years they make noise about nominee ownership.  Typically a few weeks and then all is quite again. It will be interesting to see how long this will last.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:36:55 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Widespread Flu at US air force Base</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397040-widespread-flu-at-us-air-force-base/?do=findComment&comment=20562190]]></link><description>Yes, on the above Florida case.

So, when you get a new passport, you have to transfer your LTR visa stamps over to it. And you can't do that at your local Imm office -- you have to go to BoI in Bangkok, and its colocated Imm office. BUT, you don't have to do this in person -- you can hire an agent (I just confirmed this with BoI).   And for those of us who live a long ways from Bangkok, this could save some wear and tear on an eighty year old body. Yes, we still have to go in person for the five year update (and ten year renewal). But it's nice we don't have to do this for stamp transfers.  Anyway, maybe this is not new news for LTR visa holders. But for one -- me -- it was. And here in Chiang Mai, Star Visa is the agent that will do this.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:35:21 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Time For Regime Change, In Israel.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397091-time-for-regime-change-in-israel/?do=findComment&comment=20562188]]></link><description>Just as there is no threat of genocide in Palestine.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:35:11 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Time For Regime Change, In Israel.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397091-time-for-regime-change-in-israel/?do=findComment&comment=20562187]]></link><description>You can read. Congratulations. Let's see if we can work on that capitalization though. &#x1F642;  Jewry is a collective term referring to the global Jewish people, or the Jewish community of a specific region. It encompasses both the ethnonational identity and the cultural or religious practices of Judaism. The term can also refer to a historical geographic area or ghetto where Jewish people lived. [1, 2, 3] The word Jewry has a rich historical context and several distinct modern and archaic meanings: Global Community: It is primarily used to describe the entirety of the Jewish people worldwide, often used in phrases like "world Jewry" to refer to the collective demographic, cultural, and religious whole. [1, 2, 3] Regional Population: It can denote the Jewish population living in a specific country or era, such as "European Jewry" or "Soviet Jewry".   Those would be American Jewry.  There are around 8 million American Jewry, apparently. There's no risk of the global Jewry being exterminated. With even half the global Jewry at severe risk once Israel falls, there will still be 8+ million of them. Jew talk of Jewish extermination is nothing but hysteria.   Btw, does anyone know how the small gate is doing? The one that suffered minor damage, that was next to a building that wasn't a synagogue? Jews were melting down about it. Is the gate okay now? Has it recovered? &#x1F642;</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:32:01 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Rejoining Customs Union Won't Undo Brexit Damage</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397033-rejoining-customs-union-wont-undo-brexit-damage/?do=findComment&comment=20562186]]></link><description>The left often labels others as fascists or racists, yet they become upset when similar accusations are directed at them.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:30:53 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Death Penalty in UK.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397074-death-penalty-in-uk/?do=findComment&comment=20562185]]></link><description>If an illegal alien kills a citizen, would that not be a foreign aggressor that the state has the right to "fight back"?  You are entitled to your opinion, just like you are free to believe the death penalty is not a deterrent, but that is also just an opinion, and the facts do not bear that out.   Singapore and Japan have about the lowest murder rates in the world, and they both have the death penalty.</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:29:55 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Chicken BBQ rotisserie.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397070-chicken-bbq-rotisserie/?do=findComment&comment=20562184]]></link><description>Hover your cursor over the member's avatar or user name, then click on "message".</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:28:45 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Time For Regime Change, In Israel.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397091-time-for-regime-change-in-israel/?do=findComment&comment=20562183]]></link><description>Now, that is an Anti semitic post , Comparing Israel to Nazis</description><pubDate>Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:28:29 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Rescuers Trying to Save Dogs Trapped in Bang Lamung Water Pit</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397110-rescuers-trying-to-save-dogs-trapped-in-bang-lamung-water-pit/?do=findComment&comment=20562182]]></link><description>Cooling off.
