Thailand Visa Exemption (60 days) and Visa On Arrival (VOA) (15 days)
Hello all, just joined this forum having recently returned from 6 weeks in Thailand with a start date of 01/01/2025 using the tourism visa. It’s possible that the answer to my questions may be within the numerous pages of this site but anyway, I will ask here. My questions are: 1. I intend to visit Thailand twice each calendar year. Is this permissible via the tourism visa exempt allowance? The Thai embassy in London suggests that repeat visits entry will be at the discretion of the officer on duty at passport control (not exactly reassuring). 2. I have looked at the multi-entry visa but this is only valid for 6 months from issue. Does anybody know if the METV can be applied for more than once? My situation is: 74 years of age, no criminal convictions, wish to spend January + February in Thailand each year plus a 3-week period every June/July. Most importantly, I don’t want to risk being denied entry once I arrive at BKK. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, -

Why China will prevail over the US in this crazy world of Trump 2.0
I agree that it's unlikely that Trump will do any better with China than last time. That said, it's Clinton's fault for getting China into the WTO. And of course, the resultiong China shock was one of the reasons for Trump's success in getting elected. (Another reason was Obama's ham-fisted mismanagement of the mortgage debacle). We should have set up a different trade regime for countries like China, with a lot of SOEs (state-owned enterprises). Hopefully working in tandem with the EU, dividing up airplane sales between Boeing and Airbus. My idea was rather diabolical - licensing factories to export to the US with approvals based on a point system, so the highest ranking applications would be approved first, and licenses would last for 3 years from the date of application. We could speed up or slow the approval process depending on China's behavior - a bit murky like working with Chinese bureaucracy. The worst applicants might end up not having their applications reviewed before they would have to start all over again. -

And to think she was a Democrat for so long too. Blue screen of death comes to mind. -

USAID - Dems in full delusional mode as usual
This could get some on edge, along with a mug shot and court date starting with Pelosi and others. -
