Game over
Let's hear this dr THIRA's current views on COVID, instead of recycling a 4-month old article. And for the record > I distinctly remember that dr YONG was lauded as Thailand's Top-virologist on this Forum during the pandemic, with him constantly emphasizing the need for getting jabbed (he even recommended jabbing all +6 month old children). -

Tariffs and how Trump is a socialist.
It may be the only policy he understands....or does he? Every time Trump talks about tariffs, he falsely claims that foreign companies are paying for it. But it's American companies and consumers who will pay for it. So he can't even get that right. -

Thailand’s Cabinet has approved a request from the Ministry of Interior to allocate 3.04 billion baht (US$91 million) from the central budget to assist flood victims across the country. This decision, taken at the new Cabinet’s first weekly meeting, will provide financial relief to approximately 338,391 households affected by flooding since May, according to ministry spokeswoman Traisuree Taisaranakul. The financial aid will range from 5,000 to 9,000 baht (US$150 to 270) per household, depending on the duration of the flooding. Households experiencing flooding for one to 30 days will receive 5,000 baht (US$150), those affected for 31 to 60 days will get 7,000 baht (US$210), and households facing floods for longer periods will be entitled to 9,000 baht (US$270), said Traisuree. “This special budget aims to offer immediate financial assistance to households severely impacted by the floods in various provinces.” Jirayu Houngsub, an adviser to Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, added that households suffering over 70% flood damage will receive an additional 230,000 baht (US$6,890). The affected 57 Thailand provinces include Krabi, Kanchanaburi, Kalasin, Kamphaeng Phet, Khon Kaen, Chanthaburi, Chachoengsao, Chaiyaphum, Chon Buri, Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai, Trang, Trat, Tak, Nonthaburi, Nakhon Nayok, Nakhon Pathom, Nakhon Phanom, Nakhon Sawan, Nakhon Ratchasima, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Nan, Bueng Kan, Prachin Buri, Ayutthaya, Phang Nga, Phayao, Phichit, Phitsanulok, Phetchabun, Phrae, Phuket, Maha Sarakham, Mukdahan, Mae Hong Son, Yala, Rayong, Ratchaburi, Roi Et, Lampang, Lamphun, Loei and Sisaket.

A new centre will also be established to assist victims of these natural disasters. The Thai premier emphasised the importance of engaging in serious dialogue with neighbouring countries in the Mekong River basin, including Myanmar, to enhance water management cooperation through the Greater Mekong Subregion mechanism. “We need to strengthen our cooperation with neighbouring countries to tackle water management issues effectively and prevent future flooding.” As torrential rains are expected from today to September 21, The 38 year old Thai PM revealed all relevant agencies have been instructed to ensure their disaster warning systems are functional and that residents in flood-prone areas receive timely alerts, reported Bangkok Post. The premier stressed, “It is crucial to have efficient warning systems in place to ensure the safety of our citizens during these challenging times.” by Bright Choomanee Picture courtesy of Bangkok Post Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-09-18 -

Thai military faces renewed bribery allegations involving US firm
It will never change, the military run this country and always will. I would still like just one reporter to have the balls and ask "why does Thailand need fighter jets or submarines ?" Just one, even if they get a slap. -

Thailand issues four major announcements on new visa measures
I think I get your point re. pensions and tax evasion. It would probably be easy for (say) a Thai person having worked in (say) Germany) and receiving a pension there to not declare it to the Thai finances. Is that what you mean? One would then have to be sure that there is poor/insufficient communication between German and Thailand authorities! -

Yes, hysterics. Mankind has lived through countless pandemics before. Nothing special about this one. The flu pandemic killed 100 million. We're still here.
