Thailand Introduces Online TM6 as Tourism Fee Faces Delays
Picture courtesy: Facebook TAT news In a significant move poised to streamline the entry process for visitors, Thailand is set to launch an online TM6 immigration form from May 1. This development arises as the Ministry of Tourism and Sports gears up to promote the new digital system, which is expected to replace the traditional paper-based forms previously suspended by the cabinet in April 2024. However, the much-discussed 300-baht tourism fee may see delays, amid governmental hesitance to enforce it this year. The digital TM6 form is part of Thailand's efforts to enhance the visitor experience and bolster tourist tracking for safety, amid ongoing concerns about the country serving as a conduit for illicit activities. Natthriya Thaweevong, permanent secretary of the ministry, highlighted that this online system could mitigate safety concerns by improving tourist oversight. In preparation for this change, the ministry has engaged the Immigration Bureau to showcase the online system to its staff, ensuring a smooth transition and understanding across departments. Additionally, a pivotal meeting is slated for January 31, bringing together key stakeholders, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Tourism Authority of Thailand, airlines, and the hospitality sector. The goal is to familiarise these parties with the new online form and facilitate communication with arriving foreigners. Mongkon Wimonrat, deputy permanent secretary, emphasised the government’s focus on the digital TM6 to prevent confusion, before considering other entry screening measures. The online system will be mandatory for all foreign arrivals, whether they enter by air, land, or sea, and registration will be free of charge. Anticipation surrounds the cabinet's expected approval next month, which will give concerned parties ample time to prepare. However, as noted by an anonymous insider from the ministry, the introduction of the online TM6 might overshadow the implementation of the proposed tourism fee, indicating a probable postponement. Given the complexities of smoothly integrating the TM6 system and the country's current entanglements with security issues, there is a belief that this is not the optimal moment to introduce additional fees or entry requirements. The government appears to prioritise ensuring the new process runs without hitches before revisiting the proposed tourism fee and potentially other entry measures similar to an electronic travel authorisation, which has found success in other regions. This transition marks a pivotal step in Thailand's efforts to modernise its immigration processes, aiming to offer a seamless experience for international visitors while maintaining robust security measures, reported Bangkok Post. -- 2025-01-24 -

Nazism is back
The video of Musk's speech is like one of those optical illusion pictures in which the same image can be seen in two different forms, depending on the viewer. Which do you see, an old crone or young woman? When I saw the video, I thought he extended his arm in a gesture to reinforce and illustrate the words he was using, "My heart goes out to you," He began with his hand over his heart and flung his arm out at an angle. That's not at all the Nazi or fascist salute, in which the arm is initially held at the side of the body and then raised. Moreover, it would be extremely peculiar for Musk or anyone else to use a Nazi salute along with words of thanks. It just doesn't make sense. Musk has used the phrase "My heart goes out to you" before to convey thanks. Some sources say it's a bit of a catchphrase of his. When I saw it, I didn't think it was an awkward gesture but unwise one due to the possibility (likelihood?) of misinterpretation. Some people saw a Nazi salute because they wanted it to be a Nazi salute. If you want to see real fascist salutes from people who embrace a fascist-like ideology, take a look at these below. For @stevenl and any other BM who believes Musk gave the Nazi salute- Are these photos evidence "Nazism is back" in Palestine? Pro-Palestine protestors at the Paris Olympics who gave the Nazi salute and shouted "Heil Hitler" during the Israel-Paraguay football match. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/video-shows-pro-palestinian-activists-heil-hitler-at-the-olympic-soccer-match/ar-BB1qQRCL Palestinian students give Nazi salute at a ceremony at Birzeit University in Palestine. https://www.cufi.org.uk/news/palestinian-students-photographed-performing-nazi-salute/ Palestinian scouts in Lebanon pledging allegiance to Palestine with Nazi salute: https://palwatch.org/page/23962 For good measure, a popular clothing store in Gaza named for the man the owner considered to be the "most anti-Jewish person." -

Why Some Brits Envy America’s Donald Trump
The Davos gatherings usually don't get much coverage in the US. After living outside the US for a while I went back for a visit and when I mentioned Davos I got the kind of eye-rolling that usually accompanies bringing up the JFK murder. "Meeting between industrialists and world political leaders? Yeah, right."
