KhunLA Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) Ever since diesel capped at 30, they sure are making up for it in the other petrols. Aside from that increase, Jan 2021 to today, we use E85, and that's up 60% from last year. Price 5 Oct 2021 of other fuels, when diesel capped at 30 baht ...

Fording streams and scaling mountains in cars is inspirational enough for thai drivers. Just be glad the ads don't show them in demolition derbies, street races, jumping curbs, driving on sidewalks, sailing through U-turns, sliding on wet pavement, flying off bridges, crashing into trees/poles/klongs/ditches/trailer trucks/pedestrians/motorcycles/storefronts/houses and each other. Things could be much worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srikcir Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Policy of left hand doesn't agree with the right hand? The Cabinet today 3/9/2022 is considering in part banning the use of diesel vehicles driven by air pollution.

itsari Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I see no problem in the comment drive your cars . This will result in more taxes paid Soon the situation will explode as the majority of the Thai population which is suffering from the Pandemic, resulting in low tourist numbers coupled with a large increase in pork prices and now increasing the burden with high oil prices due to Putins desires I have seen the Thai baht fighting back which helps the situation . Now beginning to falter . Exciting times 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can afford to , but many others ,with the price of daily necessities rising due to inflation , the debt they already have , maybe they cannot, fairly easy for most people to purchase a car, it's the running costs that they fail to take into account. regards worgeordie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
