Thailand goes all in on The Homosexual Movement
I was thinking the other day that these creatures would soon be back with their anti-LGBT rhetoric now the election's over. Always the same names isn't it? Two a penny. -

You have though. You just don't appear to realise it because you only really care about trolling, so you aren't even sure what you are saying. 🤦♂️ -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
There is no one here (me included) who can understand DTAs sufficient enough. A lot of the laws stipulated in a DTA are opaque at best. Every good lawyer or consultant will tell you this. Remember: "If you are not completely confused by quantum mechanics, you do not understand it" -

Thailand Looks to Bolster Suvarnabhumi Airport as Southeast Asia's Top Transit Hub
The Suvarnabhumi Airport, internationally renowned and Thailand's busiest, is in for a significant overhaul with plans to be the top transit hub in Southeast Asia. The Airports of Thailand (AOT) have released an ambitious master plan aimed at boosting the percentages of transit flights from a mere 4% to a lofty 20%. The ultimate aim is to join the ranks of the world's top 20 airports by the year 2030. “Our goal is to accentuate Suvarnabhumi's strength as a regional hub by increasing transit flights to at least the 20% mark," said AOT President Keerati Kitmanawat. "Currently, we are only at 4%, while Singapore's Changi Airport has 40% of its flights under the transit category." To attain these lofty goals, AOT is looking at embedding themselves into discussions with leading airlines that include Thai Airways International and Star Alliance members. Their purpose is to establish more transit traffic at Suvarnabhumi. The AOT will also dip into its pockets to massively boost infrastructure. This ramping up has already begun, with the recent inauguration of a third runway which has escalated hourly capacity from 68 to a staggering 94 flights. Further projections include a proposed expansion of the East Terminal, which will be a 9-billion-baht project expected to receive cabinet approval in December. This expansion, slated for completion in 2027, will add carrying capacity to the tune of 15 million passengers on an annual basis. In a move to modernise, AOT will roll out an advanced biometric identification system across six Thai airports. This should augur well for the cause of both security and passenger convenience. This system, reliant on facial recognition, has already been launched for domestic passengers and is set to be available for international travellers from December 1st. With its portfolio of six airports, including Don Mueang, Chiang Mai, and Phuket, AOT accounts for a staggering 95% of Thailand’s air traffic. This firmly establishes Thailand as a major player in both regional and international aviation. Thus, the transformation of Suvarnabhumi Airport, by embracing transit flights and state-of-the-art infrastructure, offers a dynamic new chapter in Asian aviation.

Thailand Considers Nuclear Energy as Gas Supplies Dwindle
Do you avoid flying with any Thai carrier, because the pilots are Thai and by your definition incompetent? Or the aircraft have not been maintained? I am confident any nuclear industry in Thailand would have the same international oversight as the aircraft industry. Having said that, an Australian report indicates SMR is a very expensive way to produce electricity: "The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) has estimated that small modular reactors (SMRs) are a high-cost technology that would not play a major role in Australia's efforts to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The CSIRO's 2023-24 GenCost report found that SMRs are up to nine times more expensive than large-scale wind and solar". -
