Thailand News - The Thai PM has met with Russia's President Putin on the sidelines of a Belt & Road conference in Beijing. There's also been a flood of comments from TNT viewers about their thoughts, and grievances, about the new 90 day visa waiver offered to Russian citizens.

 

An update on Thailand's flood situation and some weather forecasts for the next few days. A hero has emerged as Thais try and escape the situation in Gaza and Israel, and a Tesla car is seeing ghosts? Finally, the 50 Best Bars in the world announced - 2 of them are in Bangkok.

 

Tim Newton Today is a daily take on Thai and regional news and issues of interest to expats and foreign tourists.

What is a Belt & Road conference please?

Makes total sense. A government controlled and highly influenced by the toxic and nearly useless army invites a guy who seems to enjoy the genocidal killing of women and children civilians. 

 

If anyone needed a demonstration of the moral bankruptcy of Sretta and PT, this is it.
