Trump Starts Global Tariff Wall, Thailand Hit with 36% Tax
Yes, here is more buffoonery. The Trump administration inadvertently imposed a 29% tariff on Norfolk Island, an Australian territory halfway between Australia and New Zealand, due to mislabeled shipping data. The erroneous data led US authorities to believe that Norfolk Island was exporting goods to the US, when in fact, there is no known export relationship between the two countries. The mislabeled shipments included items such as aquarium systems, Timberland boots, wine, and recycling plant parts. The error has perplexed the Australian government, with the prime minister and trade minister expressing their belief that it was a mistake, yet it means a 10% tariff nevertheless. The US imported around A$1.04 million worth of goods from Norfolk Island between 2023 and 2024, primarily leather footwear from a local shoe shop. News reporters identified several bills of lading that listed Norfolk Island as the country of origin, despite the shipments originating from other countries. The US Census Bureau acknowledges that reporting errors can occur and significantly impact detailed commodity statistics. The errors in the shipping records appear to have **flowed through to US census and trade data used as the basis for calculating tariffs**. -

Is Thailand the Ideal Budget-Friendly Retirement Haven with World-Class Healthcare?
I've lived in Thailand for 41 years. My Thai wife and I live in a quiet rural area in the west. We look after 25 rescued cats and live simply. The cats shower us with unconditional love every day. Including all the expenses of the cats we spend 10,000-11,000 Baht per month and don't go without. Soon, we'll increase our organic food production with raised beds. If you live simply, you live happily and you don't get all the illnesses common with expats and city dwellers. If someone wants to live simply, Thailand is a very cheap place to be. If you live in a city your costs can be very high. Cities don't make you happy and healthy. A simple (rural) life does, especially if you have some cats. -

Thailand Urged to Form ‘War Room’ in Response to US Tariffs
Thailand imposes their Import Tax based on the price of the item + Insurance of item + shipping cost. Is this normal for other countries Import Tax? Doesn't Thailand include VAT on top of the Import Tax as well? Thailands " import de minimis" is still 1500 thb I believe or did this recently change? -

Is Thailand the Ideal Budget-Friendly Retirement Haven with World-Class Healthcare?
Ford Ranger Raptor price in Thailand 1.8 million baht, price in UK 2.5 million baht. Depends which country you are leaving in order to retire here and what vehicle you want to buy. -

American Man in Critical Condition After Self-Inflicted Knife Wounds in Pattaya
There are a few things about this that I don't understand. I kind of have a sense of the level of desperation that one must feel to try to take one's own life, but if you're going to fail at anything don't fail it suicide, for God's sake! Do it right, jump off a major building, there's just so many different ways that you can easily kill yourself and die for sure. What was this idiot thinking? The worst possible result in an effort to try to kill yourself would be to continue living with horrific lifelong injuries.
