Thailand Adjusts Tourism Goals Amid 30% Drop in Chinese Visitors Photo courtesy of South China Morning Post Facing a significant decrease in Chinese visitors, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) is considering revising its foreign tourist targets for the year. Initially projecting 37.46 million visitors and 3.4 trillion baht in revenue for 2025, TAT may lower these numbers to approximately 35.54 million tourists, mirroring last year's figures. Chinese tourists, key contributors to Thailand's tourism, are expected to number only 4 million this year.

Dealing with constipation
Thanks for that info and I have just ordered some and will give them a try. I have tried just about everything mentioned on this thread apart from standing on a vibrating plate and I have to abide by what I was told many years ago at the BUPA hospital in London – – that I have a slow digestive system, and it seems to be the long and short of it. No amount of fibre, psyllium husk, or any other fibrous foods seem to make much of a difference and the only thing that does is if I combine prune juice and sorbitol liquid, but as I mentioned before it's a pretty vicious method of clearing one out. Many nights of the week I will have half a head of raw broccoli, accompanied by tomatoes and olive oil as a side salad for my dinner, and I thought the broccoli would help, especially being raw, but no it doesn't. I've also tried dates and prunes and once drank half a bottle of Milk Of Magnesia out of desperation, but to no avail. So the Wild Dose capsules as mentioned by @3NUMBAS will be my last try and after that..........................? PS. I've also tried the bum gun method with a little success on occasion. -

Report Thai-Ghanaian Fraud Gang Arrested for 200 Million Baht Japan Scam
Photo: Bangkok Post In a significant crackdown, Thai authorities have arrested six members of a multinational fraud gang, consisting of five Thai nationals and one Ghanaian, for orchestrating a scam that swindled over 200 million baht from a company in Japan. The arrests, carried out by the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB), took place in various locations, including Bangkok, Nakhon Pathom, and Nonthaburi. The gang managed to deceive the Japanese firm into transferring 228 million baht to a bank account controlled by the group in Thailand. Although the CCIB successfully managed to freeze nearly all the assets, the gang withdrew 13 million baht before being apprehended. Two other gang members, a Thai and a Nigerian national, remain at large with active warrants issued for their arrest, according to Pol Gen Thatchai Pitaneelaboot, the Royal Thai Police inspector-general. The fraud operation involved setting up a puppet company in Thailand to exploit the Japanese firm. The gang infiltrated a South Korean business partner, using its identity to establish a company in Thailand. They hacked emails and sent fraudulent invoices to the Japanese firm under the guise of legitimate product deliveries. However, irregularities caught the attention of the Japanese firm's fraud audit team, leading to an investigation by the CCIB and the arrests. Pol Lt Gen Trairong Phiewphan, chief of the CCIB, emphasized the elaborateness and premeditated nature of the scheme, highlighting the gang's long-term strategy to execute the crime. The CCIB continues to investigate further, examining whether other entities were involved as front companies for the gang. This case highlights ongoing challenges in global cybercrime and the importance of international cooperation in tackling sophisticated fraud schemes. While progress has been made in capturing those responsible, efforts continue to apprehend the remaining suspects and prevent future incidents. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-05-09
