Thailand at Risk of More Unpredictable Earthquakes, Experts Warn
Genius. My guess is somewhere near or around fault lines and earthquakes by their very nature are unpredictable about location and time. I'm no "expert" though. -

Earthquake Rocks Bangkok: Building Collapses with 40 people inside
Lots of good info from good people on these threads... And yes, it seems there are some juvenile twits who leave a laughing emoji - most of it is personal from idiots who carry a vendetta after being called out for being utter idiots and morons in other threads... ... Its a shame we don't go back to seeing who left the emoji - the same guys trolling with them would perhaps think twice about between halfwitted cowards...- 1

Thailand Braces for Impact of Potential US Tariffs Amidst Tense Trade Talks
File photo for reference only Thailand could face a significant economic setback, losing up to $8 billion if the US imposes reciprocal tariffs on Thai goods. Senior officials revealed this concern today, April 2, amidst looming trade tensions with the United States. Vuttikrai Leewiraphan, a high-ranking commerce ministry official, indicated that Thai semiconductor exports could be subjected to a steep 25 percent tariff under new trade barriers expected from US President Donald Trump. Currently, Thailand imposes tariffs around 11 percent higher than the US on agricultural and industrial goods, and aligning these could result in substantial financial losses between $7 billion to $8 billion. To offset potential US tariffs, Thailand is strategising to increase imports of commodities like corn, soybeans, crude oil, and ethane, aiming to decrease its trade surplus. Notably, exports are vital to Thailand's economy, the second-largest in Southeast Asia. Commerce ministry statistics reveal Thailand's $35.4 billion trade surplus with the US last year. However, the US reports a larger deficit, pegging it at $45.6 billion. Amid these developments, Sirilak Niyom from the foreign ministry affirmed Thailand's readiness for trade negotiations. Highlighting the country's significant investment in the US, Sirilak pointed out that Thai companies have infused $17 billion across various sectors, including food, real estate, and auto parts, generating employment for 11,000 Americans. As the situation evolves, Thailand's focus remains on diplomatic strategies to mitigate the adverse effects of upcoming US trade measures, emphasising its economic contributions and cooperative spirit in international trade relations, reported Thai Newsroom. -- 2025-04-02 -
