PM Paetongtarn Dubbed 'Dad-Supported' by Reporters
Daddy's little puppet, he hands her the marching orders, and his little Princess does his bidding. I see she doesn't have the parachute wings on her outfit anymore, did someone have a talk with her about stolen valor? Not that I am convinced Daddy earned them either. -

Japan dethrones Thailand as top tourist spot
I remember sitting on the lift, that had to be stopped because of the wind, thinking about jumping off, about 10 feet, until it finally got to the top, where I skied down the slope, right to the front door of the lodge, and ran to sit in front of the fireplace. All the other times it was fine there, but that wind made it so much colder. -

Trump Calls for Return of Panama Canal Over "Unfair" Transit Rates
Who owns the Panama Canal? The short answer: Panama You (intentionally?) left out the part about Panama taking full control of the Canal in 1999... The US continued to control the canal and surrounding Panama Canal Zone until the Torrijos–Carter Treaties provided for its handover to Panama in 1977. After a period of joint American–Panamanian control, the Panamanian government took control in 1999. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/dec/23/panama-canal-donald-trump-us-explainer ...in 1977 the Government of the United States concluded a treaty with the Government of Panama calling for the gradual transfer of full authority and control over the Panama Canal to the Government of Panama. That process, begun in 1979, culminates in the final transfer of the Canal to Panama at noon on December 31, 1999. https://1997-2001.state.gov/regions/wha/panama/991206_faqs.html -

Keir Starmer: Friends Say He Desperately Needs a Break
A recession is inevitable with the lying Rachel "from accounts" in charge of the countries purse strings. Her "budget for growth" will cripple the economy. But Labour love wasting other people's money. -

My Tefal Toaster suddenly stopped popping. Now, house full of smoke. Why?
He has claimed in the past that he does not wear undies and walks around naked and never leaves the house. On the other hand he claims to hang out in the University area of CM and chat up the young students! -

Thailand Plans to Cut Armed Forces, Senior Roles Halved in Overhaul
FILE photo courtesy: Wikipedia Thailand is set for a strategic military overhaul as the Defence Council sanctioned a comprehensive white paper outlining plans to significantly trim the armed forces and curtail defence spending. This initiative, reviewed at the year's last meeting under Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Phumtham Wechayachai, paves the way for substantial organisational restructuring aimed at bolstering efficiency and aligning with national strategies. Spearheading this reform is a strategic roadmap stretching from 2026 to 2037, intending to synchronise efforts across various military departments under a single cohesive vision. "Each agency progresses in its strategic planning, but unification under a national strategy is crucial for effective downsizing," Phumtham remarked, underscoring the commitment to a streamlined military apparatus. A pivotal component of this restructuring involves the amendment of the Defence Act, originally drafted under the guidance of former defence minister Sutin Klungsang. After receiving initial feedback, this legislative piece is poised for refinement before making its way back to the Defence Council, subsequently moving to the cabinet for approval and thereafter the House for proposal. To ensure seamless execution, the Deputy Defence Minister and Defence Permanent Secretary have been tasked with overseeing the enactment of these plans. In a broader context, the council also affirmed Thailand's neutral stance on global issues, reinforcing national interests as paramount. Discussions touched upon modernising voluntary enlistment processes and amplifying disaster rescue operations, aligning defence capabilities with contemporary needs. Defence Ministry spokesman Major General Thanathip Sawangsaeng highlighted that the white paper serves as a foundational framework designed to foster improved military preparedness and internal cohesion. It will guide units in shaping their operational strategies and cultivating a deeper understanding of their roles. Already, the reduction of military personnel has begun, with a targeted 5% downscaling scheduled for completion by 2027. A significant thrust of the plan is the introduction of early retirement programmes aimed at halving the number of generals in specialist roles and officers at operational levels by 2028. This reshuffle is expected to optimise human resources, ensure mission alignment, and adapt to current threat landscapes. In response to these changes, adjustments will be made to educational intake and conscription levels to better reflect contemporary military demands. Notably, there will be a shift towards hiring voluntary recruits for combat and support roles, effectively recalibrating the composition of force personnel whilst potentially offsetting reductions in traditional military figures. These transformative steps reflect Thailand's dedication to reinforcing defence efficiency and future-readiness, establishing a balanced and resilient military stance amidst evolving regional dynamics, reported Bangkok Post. -- 2024-12-24
