Markets Rebound as US and China agree to slash tariffs for 90 days
Edit: As they were panicking from the short term effects of Trump’s tariffs doomsday predictions. Their history of predicting versus the results of what actually happens is not something to be bragging about. -

Tourism Thailand Vows to End Dual Pricing Amid Growing Tourist Backlash
Here we go. Backpackers out, quality tourists in. That these places are cheap compared to western standards is irrelevant. This is Thailand. With the same argument you could say, why rice with chicken is 40 Baht only, raise it to 200. -

Markets Rebound as US and China agree to slash tariffs for 90 days
Yes, and you can safely bet that all of them were able to use those few dollars that they didn't have to pay to the tax man where as the rich people are not really hampered by and tax savings while they go about their spending. a totally different game for the poor and not so well off. Just like Trump learning about a possible recession - IF one does occur then it will not affect him nor the other rich people as they will still have money to spend wildly if desired but the lower paid people may be out of a job as their small business might be forced to close or even some big businesses are having problems too and while they are talking, nothing has been put in writing as to finished details of a new trade agreement - exactly like that with the UK, they claimed to have settled but then said it would be months probably before the finall writiten agreement was done and signed by both countries. -

Do I need to beware of setting up regular bank transfers?
Been here permanently for just over a year. Our family have a few regular payments to take care of. Only I use regular transfers from my bank account. The reason given for not having such things as the electricity bill on automatic payment is along the lines of "doing this may cause the wrong amount to be sent either in error or as a result of fraud". I can't get specific details from family members as to how these mistakes/ fraud are perpetrated, which can be down to language difficulties as much as anything else. I assume the risk is, when setting up a regular payment from account A to account B, either/ or account A will send the wrong amount to account B, or account A's regular payment will somehow be used to send an amount to account C. A Google search didn't turn up anything clear in English, beyond MSM articles discussing Thai bank security measures, blah blah. I couldn't find any examples of abuses nor recourse should this happen, but these may well be lurking somewhere in the Thai language. Which brings me to the question: what is your take on this? Is banking here liable to such abuses? Any concrete examples I can take a look at?
