A Blitz Is Needed For Pattaya Tour Buses.
Already have been many times...they are reckless because they think they are invincible due to their greater size and often that is true they escape major injury whist inflicting devastation on the smaller road users. -

Vance Labels Harris as a Major Threat to Religious Liberty
That's utter B S. The FDA eased restrictions and it can tighten them again should it so choose. Congress would have no say in that. And there is the possibility that the Trump administration could enforce the Comstock act. -

Trump Too Scared To Debate Harris Again
Conspiracy theorists always talk in circles: “If you think the folks we elect run the country,” without stating who they think actually runs the country. If you mean that corporate money, including the defense, health care, and gun industries (but many others), run the country, I would largely be in agreement. If that’s the case, you should vote for Harris. Both Democrats and Republicans take corporate money, but Democrats retain a sense of civic responsibility, as they favor taxing corporate money and using those revenues for social programs. Republicans have long since gone off the deep end in their enslavement to corporate money. If you mean that someone else runs the country (Jewish bankers? Reptiloids?), please do tell. -

Government Okays 7.12 Billion Baht for Electric Vehicle Grants File photo for reference only The government has given the green light for the allocation of 7.12 billion baht to fund an electric vehicle (EV) incentive scheme, with the aim to stimulate the country's shift to environmentally-friendly transport. This funding will offer grants to buyers of EVs and electric motorcycles who have made purchases, but not yet applied for the government's EV incentive.

Government Okays 7.12 Billion Baht for Electric Vehicle Grants
The government has given the green light for the allocation of 7.12 billion baht to fund an electric vehicle (EV) incentive scheme, with the aim to stimulate the country's shift to environmentally-friendly transport. This funding will offer grants to buyers of EVs and electric motorcycles who have made purchases, but not yet applied for the government's EV incentive. So far, 6.87 billion baht in grants has been disbursed to assist 55,000 EVs, with over 5 billion baht set aside for disbursement. In the first stage of the EV 3.0 scheme, EVs priced below 2 million baht were granted up to 150,000 baht, and electric motorcycles priced below 150,000 baht received up to 18,000 baht. The grants are sent directly to the manufacturers, and customers can claim the grant once their vehicles are registered. The second stage, known as EV 3.5, which is set to run from 2024 to 2027, will offer grants from 20,000 to 100,000 baht based on the battery size of the vehicle. This is a move to help Thailand reach its goal of having EVs represent 30% of all vehicle production by 2030, leading to a 40% drop in greenhouse gas emissions. To qualify for the scheme, manufacturers need to meet domestic production standards by 2024 or face increased standards in 2025. This condition has already driven significant investments in the country, with over 80 billion baht allocated to the creation of EV production bases in Thailand. The government hopes that these steps will speed up the growth of the EV industry and aid in achieving its sustainable development goals. File photo for reference only -- 2024-09-25 -

Labour Leaders to Reject Free Clothing: Starmer and Rayner Announce Change
No, Jonny it is not corruption, it is a case(s) of lobbying (by the PL) and these are the facts. Lobbying is described by Wikipedia as, " .... a form of advocacy, which lawfully attempts to directly influence legislators or government officials, such as regulatory agencies or judiciary". The gifts in question have been declared by the MPs in accordance with Parliamentary regulations; therefore nothing untoward has occurred, unless you can either prove that the PL are employing illegal 'lobbying' practices and/or, that the presence (or absence) of these gifts and donations have directly caused these MPs to have changed their minds. -

Here you go. Reading these nutjobs's ideas makes you terrified to think what will happen if Harris gets elected. She'll have to placate these nuts. https://www.thenation.com/article/society/kamala-harris-public-health-agenda/ -

Yes, indeed. Probably quite a lot. I think that's the main reason for the 120-day moratorium.- 1

That costs money... so customers makes the choice cheap and cheerful with leaks or more expensive without leaks. -

8 months on VE, got warning at Don Muang Airport but let in
UPDATES: I'm in Thailand again. apologies for my lack of interactions here, i read all your advices and got lost in deliberations for quite a while, with DTV still beyond my current status, eventually i settled on going with TR as @Tim K and @Katatonica suggested, (thank you there). But instead of Penang, which i thought i would go, following your two concurring, i decided to do it in Kuala Lumpur because the lowest bracket of hostels are cheaper on average in KL (and paying cash at the reception to circumvent the malevolence of 10 rm tourism tax per day), and i needed time to gather my docs. And i thought if they reject they will reject, so, eff it, come what may. The Day of submitting my TR visa docs at embassy: I had with me 3 months' bank statements, accommodation proof (invitation letter + house registration + Thai citizen id copy) , my passport id page copy, 2 passport pics, to and onward tickets (as required), completed form stating purpose of visit is tourism + others: stay with Thai citizen. @Rob Browder I went with flight ticket KL to BKK instead of land entry because I wasn't sure land route tickets were admissible as travel itineraries in the Visa application, also because man it's a long way from south borders to BKK. If i got stuck at the Thai-Malay border, i would have to go back down to whatever Airport, Penang or KL depending on flight prices, because ask me if i wanted to stay in Malaysia my answer is an expletive no. Presented my appointment QR as instructed, arrived 20 mins early, waited extra half hour to get called. The embassy was not empty of other applicants, as i've hoped, but packed a few dozens of them. It was my turn and I wasn't even sure the officer would accept my submission, because i walked up to a guy who i saw got turned away from the counter. He's from Nepal trying to apply for some sort of Visa (not TR), told to apply from his home country. With half an expectation that i would be turned away too, it was my turn to hand over my papers. Upon her scrutiny the officer asked me to provide my final bank account balance, which i didn't have yet from the bank, as it's due to release next month, but she was ok that i make a screenshot of it on my bank app, and in hard copy, then come back again (same day morning session). So I went to the print shop about 5 mins walk opposite street (a small independent shop running on a ground floor attached to a hotel), asked the shop keeper to take a photo of my phone showing bank app coz it prohibits screenshots, then she printed this photo for me for 2 ringgits. Went back to embassy, waited for a few people, back to the same officer who then accepted my application, took my 160 ringgit fee, and gave me a pick-up slip in return chop chop, which indicated next day. Viola, but i still had to wait 1 more day. Fast forward next day, many from the day before went early too, we all queued up before the embassy opens for afternoon session (2:30 pm). The return of passport was a much quicker process. BAM I got the TR. A full page sticker, 3 months validity from the date of retrieving my passport. Legend says the BAM could still be heard in the distance future where I lay 6 feet under. Day of landing at Don Mueang: Inadvertently queued up to an IO with stars on her shoulders, because i also like to live dangerously. She took time to inspect my case, gossiped with her partner sitting adjacent, after moments of tense silence, then asked my purpose of visit, to which i answered quite honestly: tourism and stay with Thai citizen, and i showed her the invitation letter, the content on which she traced with a finger. Then she asked if i had a return ticket. I showed her. Then I was stamped and let in. Verdict: Stayed on VE over 8 months within a calendar year with many border runs and 2 extensions, applied for TR visa with legit docs and reasons, after scaffolding my passport with stamps from a couple of other countries in little less than 2 months, was let in. Couldn't tell if this works for everybody but for the record this one time it worked. Visa agency: Thanks for your inputs but I have trust issues with people let alone 3rd party middlepeople who are dead set on ripping off foreigners with legally questionable means and I didn't feel like putting my name on the money boat that tries to get around the official gov immigration who in my impression happens to be quite sensitive with disrespects. I'm afraid i might end up paying for another money boat being turned away with a parting gift of unknown future consequences. Not to mention that I don't think these middlepeople deserve the money they extort. FInal thoughts: I need to pull my fecal matters together get a remote job (again), aim for a long term visa. Aka juicing the grits to earn the rights to a life I want, like a normal person does. That's actually how i see this or any other current system, unfortunately, works. Thank you everybody who took the time to response and advice. You helped me. And I hope my rundown helps someone else in similar situation too.- 1

Thailand Prepares for Historic Futsal Clash Against France
In Bukhara, Uzbekistan, this Friday (Sep 27), Thailand's national futsal team is gearing up for a significant round-of-16 contest against France in the FIFA Futsal World Cup. Under the leadership of coach Miguel Rodrigo, the Thai team aims to secure a historic quarter-final berth, buoyed by their recent triumph over Croatia during the group stage. Rodrigo has been diligently formulating a strategy to counteract France's formidable physicality and skill, traits they share with Croatia. The emphasis in the lead-up to this crucial match is on refining tactics and bolstering the team’s confidence. With just four days remaining, preparations are intensifying. Experienced player Itticha Praphaphan underlined the importance of a united team effort, particularly in defence, to face a French squad bolstered by talents from Spain's top futsal league. The Thai team is optimistic, recognising that a display akin to their last performance could pave the way to their first-ever quarter-final appearance in the World Cup. All eyes will be on Thailand come Friday, as the nation hopes to witness a momentous victory. File photo for reference only -- 2024-09-25
