Warning Signs: The Looming Collapse of a Critical Ocean System
The witteratis have been wittering about climate change for about 20 or 30 years and why has nothing been done up till now? IMO because the ruling elites knew it was BS, but now they are running out of money to fund their wars and need more money, ergo climate change is the ideal way to raise taxes and transfer vast sums of money by pretending that if we only give enough money to "undeveloped" countries the problem will magically go away, which is a nonsense. BTW, Undeveloped nations have loads of resources and make loads of money, but it doesn't get spent on improving the country. I'm sure you know that. -

Living in Thailand is very cheap?
People should stop calling them girlfriends. They are paid companions. Do you think she would still be with you if she didn't get her allowance? -

Thai Tax Strategy Revamp: VAT Hike, Income Tax Cuts Proposed
Should be a flat 10% tax like Bulgaria. The LTV working visa with it's flat tax of 17% is too high for what you get back in return. -

Customs Department Bolsters Drug Suppression Efforts with Canine Reinforcements
Picture courtesy of Kaoded The Australian Border Force (ABF) has donated two Labrador Retriever detection dogs, Viking and Paddy, to the Thai Customs Department to strengthen frontline drug suppression efforts. The handover ceremony took place on December 4, at the Customs K-9 Training Centre in Bang Phli, Samut Prakan. Presided over by Thai Customs Director-General Thirachai Attanavanich, the event welcomed key figures including Bjorn Robert, representative of ABF’s Detector Dog Program, and Superintendent Michael Cymbalista, ABF Counsellor for the Mekong region. Also present were executives from the Thai Customs Department and partnering agencies. Director-General Thirachai highlighted the strong bilateral relations between Thailand and Australia in combating drug trafficking. The cooperation was formalized through the ABF–Thai Customs Detector Dog Cooperation 2024–2027 agreement signed on September 25, 2024. Following this, two Thai Customs officers participated in the ABF’s Basic Detector Dog Team Training Course in Melbourne from September 16 to November 8, 2024. The donation of the highly trained dogs is a testament to the ABF’s commitment to supporting Thai Customs in preventing the illegal trafficking of narcotics. “This partnership reflects our shared goal to combat the smuggling of drugs and precursors effectively,” said Thirachai. For the 2024 fiscal year, Thai Customs recorded significant achievements in narcotics suppression, seizing drugs worth 77.94 million baht in 40 cases, along with 1,327 kilograms of cannabis valued at over 13.27 million baht across 199 cases. The addition of Viking and Paddy is expected to enhance these efforts further, boosting operational efficiency and ensuring public safety. Director-General Thirachai also urged the public to exercise caution during the Christmas and New Year period, a time often exploited by criminals for drug smuggling. He warned against accepting packages or travel offers from unknown parties, as these could involve unwitting participation in illegal activities. The introduction of Viking and Paddy marks another milestone in the enduring cooperation between Thai and Australian authorities, strengthening their mutual resolve to combat transnational crime and enhance border security for both nations. -- 2024-12-05 -

Jeremy Corbyn Calls on UK to Act on Slavery Reparations in Jamaica Speech
and will he be demanding that nations that provided the slaves pay reparations as well? If we delve deep enough into history the ancient peoples all used slaves, so will he demand that all nations pay compensation to the descendants of them? He, IMO, is an idiot.
