Living in Thailand is very cheap?
https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/compare_cities.jsp?country1=Spain&country2=Thailand&city1=Torrevieja&city2=Pattaya\ On a quality-adjusted basis, Spain offers better value for MANY things based on my 1 month trip this year to: Zaragoza, Valencia, Alicante, A Coruna, Santander, Pamplona and Vittoria-Gasteiz and Oviedo. Plus the weather is better and most cities have good public libraries. Plus a can of beer starts at12 baht and a litre of wine starts at 36 baht (Mercandona, Lidl, Aldi). -

Chinese Paragliding Dies in Crash in Phetchabun
Picture from responders. A Chinese paraglider lost his life in a fatal crash on the afternoon of December 5, after his parachute collapsed mid-air, causing him to plummet to the ground in Lom Kao District, Phetchabun. The Swang Mongkol Sattha Rescue Centre in Lom Sak received a report around 16:00 about a foreign paragliding flyer who had fallen from the sky near the Lomsak-Ban Bueng Road in the Lom Kao area, close to the Lom Kao Market. Rescue teams rushed to the scene, where they discovered the body of a 58-year-old Chinese man, entangled in his collapsed parachute. Eyewitnesses reported that the flyer had launched from Phu Thap Boek, a popular site for paragliding, and was flying along the route when the parachute suddenly folded, causing him to fall rapidly to the ground. The impact proved fatal, and the man was pronounced dead at the scene. Officers from the Lom Kao Police Station arrived to investigate the accident and are currently working to determine the cause of the parachute’s malfunction. Preliminary findings suggest it was a technical issue, but further examination is needed to confirm. The victim was part of a group of international paragliding enthusiasts participating in a large-scale event at Phu Thap Boek, a renowned paragliding destination in Thailand. The site attracts hundreds of paragliders annually due to its scenic views and favorable flying conditions. -- 2024-12-06 -
