Thailand's Banks Sitting on Cash Pile: Struggle Between Lending and Liquidity
Thailand's banking sector is currently dealing with a large surplus of cash, as reported by a Bank of Thailand (BoT) assistant governor. Despite this, the central bank hasn't tightened its lending rules, suggesting banks remain cautious about giving out loans. In a piece on the BoT website, Assistant Governor Sakkapop Panyanukul notes that banks determine who to lend to based largely on whether those borrowers can pay back. For the past ten years, banks have consistently held onto considerable excess cash. Sakkapop highlights that this is clear from the big deposits and investments that commercial banks have with the central bank, ranging from 4 to 5 trillion baht (around US$115.64 to US$144.55 billion). The Thai government views high household debt as a hurdle to boosting the economy, particularly after the pandemic. To counter this, they are pushing banks to offer more loans to help spark economic growth. Sakkapop further mentions that while the central bank's lending guidelines stress setting reasonable payment plans for borrowers, they don't heavily control how banks decide to lend.

The Decline of Free Speech: How the UK Became a Third-Class Nation
White supremacist? Really? I didn't realize Islam was a race I actually thought it was an ideology. Anyway I am prepared to change my mind. Perhaps you can educate me on the benefits Islam brings to the UK versus the cons. I can think of plenty of cons with terrorism, subjugation of women that are not allowed to work, incestual marriages, FGM, grooming rape gangs, burhkas, blashphomy "laws" (Batley school teacher), higher than average unemployment and anti-semitism. For the pros I am struggling to think of anything they bring that is positive. I'm sure you will mention doctors and nurses etc but unless they are here in a higher percentage than other groups I don't think that counts. So feel free to educate me and change my mind. Since there is a 2 tier justice system and none of the violent mob that threatened to kill the Batley school teacher or the thugs from Manchester airport are in those stats you provided, as well as the police not typically recording this information (or making it available) I am inclined not to believe the stats on crime here, but I didn't include it in my list of cons anyway.
