Markets Rebound as US and China agree to slash tariffs for 90 days
well you sound like the president - that is what he said when they cited him and he said that it was just cheap junk anyway and a waste of money. Yeah if you heard his original comment, mr rich guy says he remembed a young girl with 30 dolls - probably his daughter at a young age as they were rich and I am sure he bought whatever she wanted for Xmas. IMHO but who is he to determine what one would buy as a Xmas present for their kids - what everyone is trying to wake him up to see that people instead of having great jobs and lots of money, they won't have any money to buy anything or that the shelves will be empty to begin with. IMHO typical rich guy could care less what the economy does as he is rich and can afford whatever he wants anyway so who cares about the poor, as they are nothing but losers in his mind. -

How did : Biden warns of winter of ‘severe illness and death’ for unvaccinated due to Omicron , work out ? https://edition.cnn.com/2021/12/16/politics/joe-biden-warning-winter/index.html Did White House Say Unvaccinated Are Looking at 'Winter of Severe Illness and Death'? | Snopes.com YES.

Why More Parents Are Choosing This International School
For students at St. Andrews International School, Green Valley, the school feels less like a place of rules and more like a space where childhood memories are made. Thanks to the Thai Department, language and culture are not just subjects, they’re part of everyday school life. Students become fluent in Thai, take part in traditions, and learn the stories behind them. From class projects to cultural festivals, Thai heritage weaves through the school. Here, an international education means students learn about the world while staying grounded in the country they live in. Where language meets culture Green Valley follows both the British and IB curricula, but the Thai Department aligns with the Thai Ministry of Education. This is especially important for students who want their academic progress recognised in Thailand or abroad. “Our textbooks are approved by the Ministry of Education, so our students learn Thai properly and according to national standards,” says Ms. Paktinan Jatutaniwat, School Director and Head of the Thai Department. “This gives them the foundation to succeed both in Thailand and internationally.” Blending global learning with local roots Students don’t just study Thai in books, they experience it through culture. At Green Valley, the Thai Department makes sure that Thai traditions are part of school life for all students, no matter where they’re from. “We teach Thai through fun and interactive activities. This way, international students living in Thailand also understand local customs and can use them in daily life,” Ms. Paktinan explains. It’s why you’ll see students from Year 1 to Year 13 celebrating Songkran, making krathongs for Loy Krathong, and preparing offerings for Wai Khru Day. Through food, art, and shared experiences, Thai culture becomes something they live, not just learn. As Year 11 student Kim Jiwon from Korea shares, “Learning Thai helps me connect with Thai people both in and out of school.” Teachers who guide and inspire Learning Thai can be tough, especially for beginners. But at Green Valley, the Thai teachers make it enjoyable and accessible. Students consistently praise their support and creativity. “The teachers really help if you’re struggling,” says one Year 6 Thai student. “They make it fun and easy to learn.” Another Year 6 student adds, “Since we live in Thailand, it’s important to know the language. It helps us feel part of everything. Plus, the school is fun, and everyone’s friendly, and the food’s great too!” Jiwon agrees: “The teachers are kind, and their teaching style is engaging. If I had to sum up Green Valley in three words, it would be fun, friendly, and knowledgeable.” A school that feels like home In Thai, the word sabai captures a sense of comfort and ease. That’s the feeling families talk about when they describe Green Valley. Parents appreciate the school’s personal approach. Classes are small, and teachers get to know each student, what they enjoy, what challenges them, and how to help them grow. “We want our kids to be happy going to school each day,” says one parent. “This isn’t just a regular international curriculum. Teachers monitor and adjust their methods so students understand and improve. And every staff member is ready to support our children.” Parents aren’t on the sidelines either. They’re involved, and the sense of community is real. “As parents, we all know each other and look out for one another’s children. When the school holds events, we help out to make them a success,” another parent says. The school’s setting adds to the experience. The name ‘Green Valley’ isn’t just symbolic; the campus is surrounded by nature. “The location is unique,” a parent notes. “Very few schools, local or international, have a setting like this.” You feel it in the fresh air, the laughter during breaks, and the art projects carried across breezy walkways. It’s a school that feels as open as it looks. A strong choice for internationally-minded families With its strong Thai Department, internationally recognised curriculum, and supportive community, it’s easy to see why families choose Green Valley. One parent explains, “We moved our three children here after seeing how much our friends’ kids improved. It wasn’t an easy decision, but it was the right one.” Ask the students, the ones who know the lunch menu by heart and who can spot the difference between wai phra and wai khru, and they’ll tell you they enjoy coming to school. They’re learning, connecting, and having fun. To explore how St. Andrews International School, Green Valley nurtures language skills and cultural awareness, book a visit today.
