Thailand aims to become education hub with global universities
Good thinking. Thank you @Patong2021 for that analysis. The "unintended consequence" of a shortage of low price housing did not occur to me, but I must agree with you about that. -

Trump the convicted felon gets off so why not Bidens son?
Typical BS about Trumps NY case made up by someone unwilling to invest any time/effort to uncover the details of the situation. You'd rather just accept crazy assumptions by other Trumpers who hope will convince the suckers. Here's the options open to the justice system to deal with Trump's convictions: https://apnews.com/article/trump-hush-money-conviction-what-happens-3cd52218c39ebc70a8514688ce33fcef -

I know a 14 yr old thai girl who was recently pregnant and had an abortion.
Not likely. Read the description. Overweight with her ultra processed food diet Unless there is a fetish venue in Pattaya for fatsos, she won't be flaunting her wares. I am anticipating domestic violence casualty or drug dealing, e.g. drug mule. Or maybe a tiktok influencer........ -

Thailand aims to become education hub with global universities
It seems that China is trying to get there there. Pre Covid there were 500,000 international students in China. The number fell off during the Chinese lockdown but is now in excess of 350,000. It is quite a contrast to the countries I would describe as whoring themselves. Canada has 1.1 million+ international students. Australia 700,000+. Compared to the USA with 1.1 million and the UK at 586,000. one can see that Canada and Australia have been irresponsible. Add to that the 4 million temporary workers in Canada and it is easy to see why there is a housing shortage, and a clogged medical care system in Canada and why Australia has some of the same shortages. The takeaway is that is Thailand takes in hundreds of thousands of foreign students, it will create an affordable housing shortage in its cities. -

Others did have the power to enact change. They voted for Trump. And boy are those that perceive benefit from the corrupt status quo howling about it. -

Pink I.D Card & Yellow Book
Indeed. Most the expats I know feel the same way. However - those expats are NOT married to my wife. 😅 My Thai wife insisted I get one - and a "happy wife is a happy life". 😅 I can't deny thou the Yellow Book and Pink-ID has come in handy. Ok its saved me a few baht in entering parks/aquarium (where I obtained Thai prices). But that's trivial. I do carry the pink-ID (instead of my passport - where I leave my passport locked up at home) which came in handy once when stopped for an ID check. My pink-ID (and an image of my passport and permission to stay stamp) on my phone sufficed. Without the Pink ID I would have been required to get my passport (which some others who did not have a pink-ID and did not have their passport carried with them, had to do). The big advantage so far has been for being able to use it to unfreeze a foreign trading/bank account, and open a new foreign bank account. The pink-ID # was accepted as a (not-yet-activated) Thai Tax ID Number (TIN). The foreign institutions were being stubborn, and without the TIN they were not going to let me proceed. ... I actually tried to apply for a Thai TIN prior, but the Phuket RD refused to give me one (as I was not meeting their criteria for issuing a TIN nor for activating (yet) my Pink ID# as a online TIN). Phuket RD did note thou, that if activated, my pink-ID might be usable for a TIN for an online tax submission. So in that case, the Pink ID provided as a yet to be activated TIN, was invaluable. I dare say it was timely (although the trading account freeze hurt until I was able to unfreeze using the Pink ID#). Unfreezing allowed me to restructure some stocks and subsequently quickly earned a substantial amount of money. Without this being done, I would have substantially less money today. Luck? Yes. But without the pink-ID. There would have been no luck in such a no pink-ID case. Perhaps - it all depends on one's individual situation. -
