Thai Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra has unveiled a series of populist initiatives aimed at invigorating the Thai economy and bolstering governmental support.

 

...by also imposing and increasing various taxes on tourists and ex-pats 🙂


Paetongtarn's ambitious vision signals a determined effort to revitalise Thailand's economy through these populist measures, intertwining immediate relief with longer-term economic reforms.

When will Thailand be told by the WEF and the UN to stop eating meat and dairy and start eating bugs? 

I apologize in advance for not having a link, but in the western (US) news articles (aggregated on sites such as yahoo) that talk about our (westerners) “needs” to start eating protein from bugs (usually in an article talking about some new business raising crickets), Thailand is actually held up as the example and sometimes there is a photo from some night market of the lone seller of bugs with the insinuation being that Thailand is already eating bugs as a source of protein.

It always surprises me that Thais can live on the smell of an oily rag and watch every baht yet will go out and buy new vehicles etc on credit.

...Keeping up with the Somchais!

 

Very important here.

They haven't even found the cash to pay for Thaksin's & Srettha's last populist initiative, the 400 billion Baht digital wallet scheme. Where's all the moolah coming from to pay for this new wodge of vote buying?

The majority live in wooden sheds, one light, no fridge or aircon and are in hoc for the rest of their lives......and still find the money to put alloy wheels and low profile tyres on their cars.......leaving their kids to dress in rags.
