Australian Aged Pension
I often wonder how that works. When I was young I had a girlfriend from Dharruk, Mt Druit. Her grandparents, her mother and father, and now her sisters were having children and not having worked a day in their life. So these housing commission people are still entitled to an aged pension, never having worked. -

Former C.I.A. Officer Sentenced to 30 Years for Sexual Assault and Drugging Women
Meet Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria, the chief of the secret police under the days of Stalin. Beria was a prolific sexual predator, who serially raped hundreds of girls and young women, and murdered some of his victims. His home is today's Tunisian Embassy in Moscow who had some utility works done in the cellar of the building just to find decayed bones, pelvises and skulls of women buried there during Beria's days. Beria got executed in part for that (some political background as well into which I am not going into here). It should be possible in the 21st century to do a psychological analysis of applicants. Air crew undergoes this, not only flight deck but cabin crew applicants and the same could and should be implemented for applicants of privileges jobs. If this CIA man would have been caught outside the US with a diplomatic passport, the host country could not even touch him. Repatriating him back to the US (where is immunity does not grip) and do a cross border trial with Mexico - I wish you good luck with that. In this particular case it gladly surfaced; in many other cases it gets wiped under the big carpet of diplomatic immunity. May this rapist rot in hell; I still opt for the death sentence in such cases as you cannot un-rape a female, you cannot un-pedophile a child and the same applies to drug dealers. And let's see, how many years this prime example of a government officer is really serving in jail; it is certainly not 30 years - me fears. -

Baht's Biggest Surge Since 1998 Poses Risk to Tourism And Exports
More precisely, THB was hard pegged to USD under IMF rules, it was the releasing of that peg that cause THB to float. -

Baht's Biggest Surge Since 1998 Poses Risk to Tourism And Exports
The Baht itself is not strengthening, it's only USD that's weakening, there is no economic reason why THB should strengthen anyway. Tourists selling their respective home currencies against THB doesn't cause THB to strengthen. It's only when USD is sold against THB that happens. And tourists who sell USD for THB are far and few between, most of the USD that is sold for THB comes from the settlement of export bills which are denominated in USD. So when Thailand exports something overseas, a majority of the trade bills involve USD in settlement. -

iPhone 16 Launch Draws Large Crowds in Thailand
They want to get prepared for the digital wallet! Perhaps they could use the 10k Baht to pay that pos off. Lol. Btw, most of them use the devices just to take selfies and show off. If they'd really use all the capabilities of a smartphone nowadays, they wouldn't change it so often. To change your phone, set up your personal system preferences, reinstall, and set up all your apps, the credentials, and two-factor authentications for accounts, wallets, or anything can be a time-consuming nightmare. Even with a backup. I avoid it as long as possible. The scam, to force you to get a new device by rejecting the use of some apps due to not installable OS or app updates anymore, is appearing more frequently. -

Chechen Leader Accuses Elon Musk of Disabling Cybertruck
but it does not take much to make an EV battery burn. a small explosion like in a pager to crack the casing will be enough to make it burn uncontrollably..I have thought it through. I just did not spell out details like you seem to want to use as a reason it could not be done -

As a Commonwealth employee aren't you now not on a Defined Benefits Scheme making you ineligible for Aged Pension? Or possibly you have too many assets to qualify? -

Baht's Biggest Surge Since 1998 Poses Risk to Tourism And Exports
When THD the Thai Etf came up on my screen for being up 14% in one month I knew there is concern. Wise did say they are lowering their fees to Thailand. Not that it will help much. -

Coming from someone who thinks young women in bikinis is perverted. It is a test of will and mandatory assimilation. It could end up ensuring the survival of modern civilization. Let us know your clever ideas. OK?
