Thailand: Where white losers that can’t get laid go
That's a pretty narrow-minded take. There are countless women from every nation who are more than qualified as long-term partners or marriage material. If you're passing judgment like that, it's either because you lack the ability to recognise it—or your own bias disqualifies you from being in the conversation altogether. -

Thailand Tightens Waste Paper Imports to Safeguard Health and Environment
Thailand's Foreign Trade Department is cracking down on dirty deals—literally. Stricter import controls on waste paper are in the works to safeguard public health and protect the environment. Ronnarong Phoolpipat, the Foreign Trade Department's Director-General, revealed that the Commerce Ministry has been swamped with reports from concerned entrepreneurs all year. These tip-offs exposed that imported waste paper is ending up in factories, getting transformed into rolled paper and packaging—often tainted with hazardous materials. A recent ministry inspection uncovered the alarming truth: waste paper shipments were mixed with plastic bottles, foam, plastic bags, aerosol cans, sanitary napkins, masks, medical bags, and hoses. According to Ronnarong, these contaminated imports are flouting new hygiene standards and country-of-origin rules. “These contaminated imports flout new hygiene standards and country-of-origin rules,” said Ronnarong. He warned that things are about to get stricter. Products tainted with waste are classified as municipal waste, banned from import under the Commerce Ministry’s 2019 decree. Importing such toxic mixtures is illegal and poses dual threats to both environmental and public health. Ronnarong hinted at drastic measures, such as bans and stringent import permits, if these violations continue. “Importers, beware! Choose your distributors wisely or risk bringing in banned goods that endanger Thailand’s environment and public health." The department is not taking any chances. Collaborating with various agencies, they are ramping up the scrutiny of imports to ensure Thailand stays clean and green. File photo for reference only -- 2024-09-18 -

Honest Question: How is Trump a 'threat to Democracy'?
What chaos ? 2 people running for office, where's the drama. Stop watching the news, both sides. If voting, listen to the candidates, to what they are saying and not saying. More importantly, stayed tuned into your local & state elections. If members of US Congress seats are up for grabs, then pay attention. Be happy with your choices. If you want change, don't vote for any incumbent, unless you are happy now. -
