DeSantis covid grand jury finds no evidence of criminality
A statewide grand jury didn’t find evidence that COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers broke federal or state laws when making and distributing the shots, according to a report published Tuesday. The publication of the grand jury’s final report comes more than two years after Gov. Ron DeSantis asked the Supreme Court to assemble it to investigate wrongdoing related to the COVID-19 vaccines. At the time, DeSantis eyed his unsuccessful bid for the presidency and explained his petition by saying that misrepresenting the efficacy of a drug was against Florida law. https://floridaphoenix.com/2025/01/07/statewide-grand-jury-investigating-covid-19-vaccines-finds-no-evidence-of-crimes/ -

Are more and more mainland Chinese trading in China for a life in Northern Thailand?
Just one more consideration concerning Chinese moving to Northern Thailand, and....FACE: a. Chinese care about FACE. b. Most Chinese do not consider moving to Thailand to be as "step up" from living in China. c. Most Chinese consider China to be far superior to Thailand. d. Do you really think most Chinese would like to WRITE HOME to their friends in China, and say....we have moved to Northern Thailand....For Good, and Forever? e. Give me a break! f. Most of their friends back in China know that Chinese who come here are on their way to something BETTER than Thailand. g. For the average Chinese family, just coming to Northern China, without having a definite plan to get to a far better place than Thailand, would be a.....TOTAL loss of face. Their friends back home could just not understand something so silly. h. Most Chinese are willing to sacrifice almost anything for their children and their next generation. i. So....leaving China just to settle forever in Thailand would be.....something that their friends could not comprehend. And this would represent a loss of face. j. The majority of Chinese have a long game plan. They will sacrifice for many years, just in order to reach their goals, for their family. NO WAY can Northern Thailand ever be worth this sacrifice. No matter just HOW GREAT the Smoking Season is...here in Glorious Chiang Mai. (Personally, I LOVE the smoking season...but.....I am not TRULY Chinese......yet...through and through.) -

Bypassing passport control
The majority of people visiting Thailand are legitimate tourists who come for short vacations. For them that would be a breeze. For the rest 1%, they will find a way to scrutinize them, don't worry. 😉 -

Essential Driving Rules and Etiquette in Thailand
IF the Policy is not a named Policy (or you are named on the Policy) you are driving legally with a UK License (or licence in English Language) or with a License not in English accompanied by an IDP. Regarding how long you've been here - that gets more complex and there 'could' be room for insurance to 'wiggle out' IF you've been here a number of days beyond the policy allowance. Some posters in the past have noted in the past that there is a 'time limit' on the duration with which you can drive under your IDP (or without when holding an License in English) - but the waters start to get muddied; what happens if you depart Thailand and re-enter ? - does that reset the days ? etc.... That said: Thai Vehicle insurance companies are remarkably relaxed when it comes to all of these factors. Regardless: due to all this ambiguity - the best option for any long termer is clearly to get a Thai License - they're easy to get (also, IF your License is in English Language you don't need an IDP to get a Thai License)- 1
