Thailand Extends Visa-Free Entry for Indian Tourists Indefinitely
There are many nations that stick to Quality tourism, and keep their tourism geared towards quality high spenders and not mass cheap tourism. This year i'm going to Barbados. It sticks to quality tourism, and has a high threshold to stamp out the cheap riff raff. It's a quality destination, with very high spending visitors. Now Barbados, Aruba, etc aren't rich countries. But they have improved their tourist infrustructure (routed out all corruption, high quality hotels with strict controls, food standards that match those in the west (no dodgy bellys here) and they are rewarded. Thailand should be diversifying it's economy. It has been told after each generation it needs to stop the reliance on cheap mass tourism. It's short termism. All that happens is you addict the local population into these low paid jobs. Look at Vietnam, Malaysia ... neighbouring countries who have ensured their economies are diverse, and not reliant on mass tourism. If Thailand can hook itself of it's mass tourism addiction, it would force it's population into other avenues of employment. Thailand is such a beautiful country, with a great history that it could easily improve the standards to adjust to quality high spend tourism. However, this move into opening the flood gates for Indians is going to be an utter disaster. Even countries that relaxed rules for Indians, had to quickly tighten up the visa processes as the system was being abused for over staying, and the quality of tourists was horrific. But nope ... it's short termism. MASS CHEAP TOURISM. -

How are non-maga Americans describing yourselves to non-Americans that you meet now?
Don’t kid yourself. There are plenty of us MAGA types in Bangkok too… including Thai people with American citizenship. It’s been super-fun and awesome meeting conservative people of many stripes — including Trumpers — over the past months and years. It makes a nice break half the year for me and wife, who live in a strongly leftist part of the USA during the other half of the year. -

Ramkhamhaeng 26 area
orange line underground in front won't be operational until 2027 at least, the stations and tunnel are completed, the worst of traffic distuption is over, just no trains till the rest of the line is built and even then traffic is bad in the back is the airport rail link, a bit harder to get to, also easy access to the expressway and motorway to the airport there are 2 big university, the Ramkamhaeng open university, usually full of working class students and from the south, often muslim so plenty of mulim workers and food in the area, the other is private Assumption University (ABAC) ususally rich kids so easy to rent out during big concerts at the stadium the traffic will be unbearable ther used to be smaller 'the mall' shopping malls around the area but they demolished most of it waiting to be rebuilt after the trains start running maybe, at the moment there's a small 'the mall' on the opposite side of the road, now there's only supermarket department running, there's the big 'the mall' shopping center that's recently renovated on Bang Kapi the next big road away oh, the are around there is a low lying basin - essentially lowest area of Bangkok that's prone to flooding, there has been big flooding in the 80s -

The republican party no longer exists. It's 100 percent the Trump maga party now. You are normalizing something that is the opposite. -
