Tourism Thailand’s Tourism Confidence Dips Amid Economic Challenges
What could be a problem is reading about police razzias in night clubs, the complicated alcohol drinking laws (for tourists), even though in practice perhaps doesn’t mean much, the anti vaping law is quite a surprise for many who don’t study all the do’s and do t’s before travelling to Thailand. Many people have proudly stopped smoking and vape instead (yes, I know, let’s not start a discussion about pros and cons of vaping), and are startled by the fact of being fined or even find themselves arrested simply for vaping, a habit which is broadly accepted in the West. It is cleaner (no butts), mostly odourless and is restricted to smoking areas. It seems to many as if Thailand has become a police state, particularly directed at tourists being the greatest target. Driving motorbikes without a helmet, yes one shouldn’t do that, but there again tourists are more targeted than the locals. It’s become rather unpleasant. I have been alerted to this fact by many friends and their friends, so they are reluctant to visit. These friends at least know about these facts, but many arrive thinking they’ll enjoy a relaxing holiday and promptly get fined/arrested simply enjoying their vapes and wonder why the alternative delivery method of nicotine is criminal but cigarettes are not! -

Thai - Cambodia Conflict Thai Army Denies Responsibility for Artillery Shells That Landed in Laos
Do we know where in Laos the munitions hit and their apparent incoming trajectory? On the face of it, this sounds like Ukraine blaming their own misfires landing in Poland on Russia, as suppsedly happened in the early part of the current Russo-Ukraine war (sorry - SMO). -

Report Tensions with Cambodia Impact Thai Baht and Tourism
I use the 400,000 baht bank method to hold my stay here. Leaving most assets back home to grow, still good for a while, but if it pops above 36-37 I will purchase another 2-3 years of THB. This is the plan for the future, buying in chunks when the baht is high. -

Thailand Cambodia armed conflict -- where do western expats fit in this mess?
I agree with you for the most part except that just because someone is living in Cambodia doesn’t mean that they will side with Cambodia. Expats in Thailand on this forum are complaining about Thailand being in error.
