DDPM Launches Nationwide ‘Stop Burning, Stop Dust’ Campaign to Combat PM2.5 Pollution
You do not go round to complain!! I would not expect anyone to do that. The burning problem just involves a phone call to a hotline if you have one there. Parties and shooting guns involves a call to the Police. It is then up to them but there would be interest if guns were involved. It is not the Thai way to complain which at times is crazy. Until it is too late!! -

Fruit and Diabetes
The best way to find out what food you take can affect your blood sugar value is to do your own "experiment" at home. Test your blood sugar value before meal. Take another reading 2 hours after you have consumed the food. Use one of those home kit for blood sugar testing (e.g ACCU-CHEK, Omron, Sinocare, etc). It is tedious and requires discipline. I have developed it into an "art". I weigh my dry pasta before I cook it so that I control the portion size. It's not just the type of food you eat but also the portion size that can affect your blood sugar level. The HbA1c value only gives you the average blood sugar value for the past 3 months (your 6.0 to 6.2 values are very good). Some food release sugar to your blood faster than others (Glycemic Index), which you have to be aware of (e.g. refined sugar, etc). As a diabetic, you should avoid this type of food as sudden spikes in blood sugar level over time can damage small blood veins especially in your eyes. It doesn't mean that as a diabetic your cannot enjoy your food. Eat everything in moderation and some type of food less frequently than others. Good luck in your effort to control your diabetes. -

GOP support for Musk influence with Trump falls dramatically: Poll
The share of Republicans who say they want tech billionaire Elon Musk to have significant influence in the Trump administration has fallen substantially in the months since President Trump was elected. In The Economist/YouGov poll taken in the days after the November 2024 election, 47 percent of surveyed Republicans said they wanted Musk to have “a lot” of influence in the Trump administration, while 29 percent wanted “a little” and 12 percent wanted him to have “none at all.” Today, however, the share of Republicans who say they want Musk to have “a lot” of influence has fallen substantially to 26 percent. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5129353-gop-support-for-musk-influence-with-trump-falls-dramatically-poll/ The article goes on to say that 43% of Republicans want him to have a little influence and 17% who want him to have no influence. -
