How to deal with a conflict with monkeys?
You are born with the power to run, give it a try !!!... ok, serious... The monkey probably recognised the monk and its quickly likely the monk has used a stick a or a slingshot etc, thrown stones at the monkey etc enough times, the the monkey knows whats coming. Some may argue this would be 'un-buddhist' of a monk to act in this fashion - but they are still just humans and can respond to a problem anyway they want. You want to know how 'you' should respond - if the issue becomes significant enough - carry some sort of 'stun baton'... https://www.lazada.co.th/products/led-i5183607010-s22003191204.html? -

METV or Visa Exemption for multiple short-stay entries? (+ internal flights).
Thanks for the further info. As just mentioned, trips are short due to working commitments in the UK currently. There is future sight for re-location out to Thailand after marriage, but for now this is the system that I have to work to. I can apply for METV in UK as I am here now, I just don't know if anyone had any history with this Visa and if it is a difficult application to do or be successful in? I've never been asked for this by an airline as of yet (EVA AIR every time from UK), but I am always in possession of a round trip ticket to return to the UK paid in advance, with a hard copy on me that I can present at any time. -

Phuket Police Take Action Against Illegal Street Racers
Early this morning, city police in Phuket targeted an unlawful street racing hotspot in the Saphan Hin district, confiscating five motorcycles. The crackdown took place after officers noted discussions about the underground street racing scene on local social media at 12.45am today, October 7. Quick police action resulted in the arrests of five individuals, believed to be daring young people, and the seizure of their bikes. The law enforcement officers have refrained from revealing the identities of those arrested. "We have noted down the offenders' information and are deliberating on further legal action," stated a police spokesperson. As part of their efforts to halt illegal racing and ensure public safety, the authorities are intensifying their operations. The public has been asked to report any suspected racing activities. Meanwhile, in Hat Yai, a late-night operation led to the detention of a motorcycle racing gang. Police seized 35 motorcycles and arrested 40 young people for profiling and training. Authorities have also warned sternly against any future meetups. Under the leadership of Police Colonel Phum Banthip, Deputy Police Superintendent Adinan Wongmatthong, and Police Lieutenant Colonel Thatchanon Kaewchan, the Hat Yai police conducted an effective crackdown on a group of teenagers known for illegal motorcycle races. These meetups, which recently took place from yesterday, September 7 to this morning, caused significant disturbances to local residents. File photo for reference only -- 2024-10-07 -

A typical week on Thailand's roads
Very few if any go to a driving school to learn how to use the road. They do not look for other traffic and give consideration for others. Rule of the jungle, biggest has priority regardless. Obeying the rules of the road are optional. Some of the things I have noticed on the roads of Thailand -

METV or Visa Exemption for multiple short-stay entries? (+ internal flights).
A re-enter permit protects any permission of stay already granted, regardless of holding a valid visa or not. From the OP's post he could probably have only one VE entry on file with 3 entries via a re-entry permit. His visits are short, but regular. How long before that activity raises suspicion? -

Spreaders of Conspiracy Theories: Unmasking the Motivations Behind the Lies
Did they though. Out of 100 be honest about how many were true. Of those that turned out correct - did the government and media say that it was definitely false - or was it not denied as such but simply said there's no proof it's correct. Of course from time to time someone knows something that is the truth, has no proof, and it takes time to disseminate. Some governments and media too cannot be trusted or at least less than others. But the correct theories are so few and far between - and so many theories so terribly obviously wrong - that it makes the comment a bit of a sham if you be honest in my opinion. -

Re-Enter permits? Not familiar with these sorry! Due to working commitments in the UK, these are the reason my trips are short. I am in the UK now until November so can do this from the UK no problem. -

Thailand gears up amid US-China tensions to boost local economy
As the economic strife between the United States and China continue, Thailand has surprisingly emerged as an unexpected winner on the global front. The Southeast Asian country is preparing to become a significant player in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, which could potentially change the automotive scenario not just regionally, but globally as well. This news was revealed during the 4th Sweden-Thailand Sustainable Development Forum, a key event of the Sustainability Expo 2024 held in Bangkok. Taking place from late September to early October, the forum gathered a diverse group of experts and diplomats to discuss urgent environmental problems. The expo’s theme, "Good Balance, Better World," highlighted a key point: being sustainable and profitable can go hand in hand. The ongoing trade dispute between the world's economic giants has unintentionally created an opportunity for Thailand and its neighbouring countries. Industry experts, including Volvo Car Thailand’s Managing Director Chris Wailes and Siamnat Panassorn from the Electric Vehicle Association of Thailand, see these geopolitical challenges as possible stepping stones for the Thai EV industry. Thailand's well-established automobile industry serves as a firm base for this possible transformation. With a powerful network of 2,500 parts suppliers and a workforce of 800,000 strong, the country is well-prepared to make a significant impact in the EV sector. Panassorn, however, urges for more government incentives to fully unlock Thailand's potential as an EV export hub. While the future for EVs seems promising, specialists at the forum stressed that broad adoption depends on progress in battery technology and charging infrastructure. They predict a crucial turning point will occur when EVs match the price of traditional vehicles and can offer a driving range of 1,000 kilometres on a single charge. Despite the promise of the EV industry, Thailand's total car production witnessed a slight fall in 2023. The 2.2% decrease, largely due to a drop in pickup truck production, serves as a reminder of the industry's challenges, including an increase in household debt and stricter lending policies. As the global initiative to fight climate change gains momentum, Thailand’s possible transformation into an EV manufacturing hub could signify a remarkable milestone. This change not only brings potential economic benefits but also aligns with global sustainability goals, possibly placing Thailand at the front of the green car revolution. The coming years will be decisive if Thailand can successfully balance its economic goals with environmental responsibilities. With the global car industry at a turning point, all eyes will be on Thailand to see if it can take advantage of this opportunity and become a leader in the EV era.
