Finnair Increases Flights to Asia and the Middle East, Including Phuket
Finnair is offering more flight options to the Middle East and Asia this winter, as part of a major expansion of their flight schedule. Starting in November, Finnair, the national airline of Finland, will boost its flights to popular destinations including Phuket and Dubai due to an increased demand from European tourists seeking warm weather. From November 2, the airline will start offering daily flights from Helsinki to Phuket, an increase from the current four flights per week. Similarly, the Helsinki-Dubai route will see a increase to daily flights, up from the current three times a week. This change underlines the growing popularity of these sun drenched destinations. A spokesperson for the airline stated that they were excited to offer more flexibility for those looking to escape the winter. This increased flight schedule enhances Finnair's already expansive network across Asia and the Middle East. The airline operates daily flights to various cities including Bangkok, Tokyo, and Doha, ensuring seamless connections for those travelling for either business or pleasure. Phuket is popular with tourists due to its beautiful beaches and lively nightlife, while Dubai's modern architecture, luxury shopping, and sunny weather all year round attract a wide variety of visitors. Finnair's use of a modern, fuel-efficient fleet, including Airbus A350 and A330 aircraft, supports their efforts towards sustainability and reduces their environmental impact. The airline has set a goal to reduce emissions by 50% by 2025, according to Travel and Tour World.

Rising Toll: 16,000 Russian Soldiers Killed in Ukraine Since April
I don't think you understand surrendering to Putin will result in the genocide of Ukrainians. Putin wants the assets of Ukraine, human beings are just an inconvenience. The model is the same as Stalin used, mass deportations, migrating Russians into the conquered areas, kidnapping children to be re-educated. The false concern you show for women and children is typical of a Kremlin apologist. -

Totally agree with you - Wouldn't it be nice to take the dogs in a truck to where these "animal lovers" live, dump them outside their house, and hope that they take up "residency"? 🙂 -

Quite true. However, the share of Russian gas imported by Germany went down from 55% to around 4%, if I remember well.- 1

100-Year-Old Tree Makes Up to 40,000 Baht Yearly
A 100-year-old parkia speciosa tree in Trang, Thailand earns as much as 40,000 baht a year due to the high demand for its large, tasty pods. Satit Ramna, owner of the tree located in Na Yong district's Suan Ta Chan Tonmai Panpi, employs locals to harvest the pods from his four century-old trees. Despite a recent three-month drought, each tree is set to produce 800 to 1,000 pods, just a bit fewer than usual. Selling between 3.50 and 5 baht each, the pods continue to be popular because of their size - as large as a 5 baht coin - and their quality - long and large. Locally known as sato, these parkia speciosa pods are unique in their flavor. Satit promises their rich, nutty taste, along with a gentler aroma, sets them above other types. The mineral-rich soil of Na Yong, from the nearby Banthat mountains, enhances the quality of these pods. The result? Crispy, slightly bitter pods that fans pre-order each year - and a yearly income of 30,000 to 40,000 baht. Satit’s family has been growing these trees, originally from Banthat mountains, for three generations. Only four of the trees survive today, but they continue to draw in customers due to their reputation. With the ability to produce pods all year, these trees assure a continuous supply. Two types of parkia speciosa are available: sato khao and sato dan. Sato khao is favored for its softer texture and weaker scent, perfect for eating raw, in curry dishes or with chili paste. The sato dan variety is bigger and tougher, with a stronger smell, and is less popular. The pods are not just a culinary delight, they also offer health benefits. They are believed to provide anti-aging effects, lessen wrinkles, and improve eye health owing to the calcium and phosphorus in them. They are also said to aid in blood flow and decrease anemia. Often, leftover pods are pickled and sold online nationwide. According to Satit, the trees have been producing 50 to 100 pods at a time throughout the year. The pods are bought by local vendors for 3.50 to 5 baht each. Satit proudly attests that Na Yong's unique climate and mountain soil are the secrets to the special taste of his parkia speciosa. Satit has a loyal customer in Phetchaburi who orders around 3,000 pods per year, refusing any other variety. As soon as the pods are harvested, vendors snap them up, thus ensuring none get wasted. And given that each tree produces about 3,000 pods annually, it proves these trees continue to be remarkably productive.

Unlikely she ever did anything. ( it's the Thai way) I do sympathize, with you, as I have a pack of dogs fighting and barking all night when I'm at my condo in Jomtien. Worst still is the falang and Thai couples that come and feed them, every day. but never take them home. Total As!!!!!!!!!!!!!! holes.
