New Thai Commerce Minister Targets High Living Costs, Chinese Imports
Newly appointed Commerce Minister Pichai Naripthaphan has committed to taking swift action to combat the high cost of living and to expedite Free Trade Agreement (FTA) negotiations. Following his first day in office, Pichai highlighted the urgency of addressing the economic challenges facing Thailand. Pichai, ready to work closely with his deputies Napintorn Srisanphang and Suchat Chomklin, aims to implement policies that will cushion public expenses, ensure fair produce prices, and provide support for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The Commerce Ministry’s strategy will be laid out after the government’s policy presentation to Parliament today and tomorrow. Key policies will include measures to reduce living costs and stringent monitoring of Chinese imports, which Pichai acknowledges as problematic due to their low cost and quality. To counter this, a meeting with ministry executives on September 16 will determine the allocation of tasks across relevant agencies. Pichai stressed the need for urgent steps, stating, "We must review product costs and work with businesses to reduce prices. This will help ease the financial burden on the public." Regarding Chinese imports, he indicated that existing measures could be reevaluated, and further action might be taken if current regulations fall short, though he was careful not to convey animosity towards Chinese goods. Accelerating FTA negotiations is another priority, as new agreements with various countries could boost foreign investment in Thailand, thereby invigorating the economy during these trying times.

Foreigner Steals Taxi While High on Cannabis, Crashes into Lamp Post
Kinda agree with most of that, although the fact remains. Some people should NOT partake in any substances which alter moods. Some people drink a little and get rowdy, yet some can drink a lot and just sit back and smile and laugh. Marijuana in large amounts does the same things to certain people. It just keeps them mellowed and calm. Some can get high using most anything and get out of control. I know many people, including some family, that have been smoking for many years and still are doing fine, and it doesn't interfere with their lives or careers. There are also some that should never touch anything that might compromise their thinking or moods, because they might have a mental illness just below the surface that would get antagonized by doing drugs or alcohol. This we see almost daily where people hurt or kill others under the influence. -

Harris Surges Past Trump In Election Betting Markets After First Presidential Debate
There is no credible evidence or verified reports that Kamala Harris refused to be checked for wearing an “invisible” earpiece during any debate with Donald Trump. This claim seems to be part of misinformation or conspiracy theories that often arise around high-profile political events. Similar rumors have circulated about various political figures, particularly during televised debates, but they are usually unsubstantiated and debunked by fact-checkers. During debates, candidates typically follow strict rules set by the debate commission, and the use of any earpieces or communication devices would likely be prohibited. Can you please provide a credible link for KH refusing to be checked for an earphone? -

I know Pattaya vedy well, so I do not understand why you always want to convince others you have an better opinion of what is best for others 😄 No Pattaya do not have great kayaking, hills, fishing, diving or freediving, and K forgot hiking and trekking in the jungle. Neither do Pattaya have quiet beaches and beach front bungalows -

Foreign pickup driver flees after crashing into Thai woman in Phuket
A Thai woman took to social media in a bid to search for a reckless foreign man who crashed his pickup into her in Phuket and fled the scene. The Thai victim, whose name remains undisclosed, shared details of the accident with the Phuket Times today, September 12. She stated that the incident occurred a few days ago, but the police were still unable to track down the foreign suspect. The victim explained that she was riding her motorcycle behind the foreign man’s pickup on Bang Niao Road. She saw the foreign man indicate a left turn and slowly move to the left to change lanes, so she moved ahead into an empty space on the pickup’s right side. Unexpectedly, the pickup driver veered back to the right and hit the victim’s motorcycle, causing her to fall onto the road. She sustained injuries to her chin, both arms, hands, and feet. The foreign driver initially came over to check on her but did not offer any help and later fled the scene. The victim stated that the foreigner did not take responsibility for the accident and she has not received any updates from the police. Many Thai netizens condemned the foreign man, as well as other foreign motorists in Phuket, for their reckless driving and poor behaviour on the roads. Some also criticised the Thai police for focusing more on cases involving foreigners than on those involving Thais. “I drive every day and encounter foreign motorists with terrible driving skills every day as well. Sorry for being rude but these foreigners even dare to complain to me on the road when they are actually in the wrong.” “If a Thai person hit a foreigner, they would be hunted down and punished.” “The pickup didn’t even have a registration plate. Why haven’t the police arrested him? There are many cars in Phuket without registration plates.” “A lot of awful foreign motorists are in the Rawai area. They ignore red lights and have almost hit me and my son several times. The police should take this matter seriously and arrest these illegal motorists.” “Some foreigners have never driven a car in their lives and use Phuket’s public roads for training.” As of now, there has been no update from the relevant police officers regarding the identity of the foreign suspect.

Thanks for the articulate, insightful and very descriptive retort. LOL. As I said, anyone with a good grasp of the English language and is well educated could discern just who is by far and wide the most qualified candidate - Harris- 1
