Thai Government Steps Up Efforts to Curb Chinese Business Dominance
China’s Not-So-Secret Economic Weapon (amac.us) A new report has provided compelling evidence that China’s excess manufacturing capacity – long considered a potential weakness by many Western economists – may in fact be a critical part of Beijing’s efforts to undermine the United States by decimating the American manufacturing sector. As the Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM) writes, “Overcapacity is a feature, not a bug, of China’s model of state capitalism.” While a production glut may be a serious problem in a free-market economy, Beijing’s willingness to heavily subsidize Chinese industry has allowed Chinese companies to continue pouring cheap goods into foreign markets – including using backdoors through countries like Vietnam and Mexico to skirt American tariffs. -

Going short-time only, shallow or succulent?
My ilk understands what happens to people involved in the trade better than your ilk does, as we take the time to research and having children and wives or girlfriends, we actually care about them and don't like to picture other women or children in this predicament, which damages them at the very least. I couldn't care less what others do otherwise but if it involves hurting or controlling other humans, that's what I don't like. People who buy aren't concerned what happens to these women, but only how it benefits them and their sexual wants. They don't see the lives or into the minds of those that are in the sex trade. Again, try reading the link before commenting again. You and others can tell me what they think about what professionals involved in the psychological effects it has on people have come up with, but of course some will still be in denial and promote anything that again, benefits them. People voted for Donald Trump, although I could see what kind of lunatic he was long before he was elected president, and most are beginning to really understand now, but many are still on his side., which shows just how some people think. Again, Hitler was loved by many until they saw the real him, and some still think he was okay. -

His name might be Mikhail, not Michael. The Ruskies are very fond of wearing their shorty pyjamas out of an evening. -

Your missing a lot. The same reason folk get plumbers, electricians, maids, car washers, etc etc. To make your life easier. If your one of the lucky ones where IOs dont make your whole experience like a visit to a blind dentist for a tooth extraction, then ok, but to most us, the experience is worthy of getting someone else to do it. -

Several neighbouring countries compete with Thailand for foreign retirees
There will be foreigners who are eligible for tax and those who aren't. I worked for my first 9 years . Work permit. nonB visa (renewed every year at Bangkok immigration. All copies of passport,tax form, earnings the lot. After 9 years went to hand in by work permit to start another company. Work permit had never been registered plus the company that employed me had no right to employ me as it was never registered to employ foreigners. All my tax form were fake. Works department new it wasn't my fault so got a 3 month extension of stay. -

Government to Restrict Use of Digital Gadgets in Schools
I guess this puts a damper on any more schemes like a tablet for every child in school haha... I do not think just the act of using and having a digital device reduces a person IQ. it is the content they use the digital device for that does this. Digital devices, if used correctly, would increase a person's knowledge more than any book Thais read in school. i think every classroom should have sufficient computers or tablets for a students use but with controls that block gaming apps and websites and social media access. Only in those your IQ would get reduced. Thais are addicted to these things easily and when they are using them the world around them disappears. -
