Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) system is online (but not announced as starting yet)
While preparing for overseas travel, there are quite a few things to make sure. So, a lot better if the prospect traveler can do it well before the arrival date. Unsure it may be changed for the better in the future though. -

15 Billion Expressway Project to Connect Koh Chang Boosting Trat’s Economy and Tourism
Their greed is insatiable. Destroy and flood with mass tourism. First a bridge to Ko Samui, welcome to one day package tourists, stinky buses clogging the roads. And now that. I also hope it will not be in my lifetime. -

How about a solar car port on a budget?
Old one was on it's last legs, new aircon 10kbht fitted. Aircon power now free now as I paid 2kbht for a 1kw GTI, and another 2Kbht for a 580W n-type mono split, bifacial panel to wind my meter back (around 2 units a day). -

Thai Baht Plummets with US Tariff Blow: 34.50 per Dollar Test Looms
To whom is a 34.5 baht alarming? That was the government's target a number of months ago when they were urging the central bank to lower the interest rate. It is well below the 36 that the baht was a little over a year ago. What should the baht be trading at? I don't know but I urge the bank to try and stabilize it if that is possible. I suspect it is not. Trump/Musk have thrown the world economy into chaos. If the bank raises interest rates to fight inflation and to stabilize a troubled baht they are likely to increase the economic hardship that the threatening economic downturn will cause and the political instability that is likely to cause. The government is already weakened because growth is less than people want. A world wide recession and the instability that Trump is causing will hurt Thailand's tourism business. The loss of exports to the US will hurt all sorts of sectors of the economy especially rice sales. A weaker baht will encourage both of those sectors but not as much as they are likely to lose. While all this is going on the US Fed will have to keep rates steady or higher to fight inflation putting more pressure on the baht. I think it would not be difficult to see the baht trading for 40 in the near future. That would help the tourism, rice, and construction businesses a little.
