Anyone considering fleeing if Trump gets elected?
If California is any indication, more will be pulling up stakes and leaving if the left stays in power. Sadly, none of the never Trumpers who swore they'd leave in 2017 kept their word. -

Nostalgia for Prayut Grows as "We Miss Loong Tu" Goes Viral
When former Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha was in office, he faced significant criticism from the Thai online community, largely due to his rise to power through a coup. His actions and policies were often met with hostility, with some even criticising trivial things like his mannerisms and speech. Despite this history, a surprising change has recently taken place on Thai social media. A catchy tune titled “We Miss Loong Tu” has gone viral, sparking a wave of nostalgia for the former leader. The song, which blends pop and dance elements, praises Prayut’s contributions and dedication to the Thai monarchy. Lyrics include, “Loong Tu is the one who stands up for us and does a lot of work. He makes us smile and would sacrifice his life for the monarchy. We miss Loong Tu, aha, aha.” Accompanying the music are engaging videos created by netizens, many featuring lip-syncing and dance routines. One TikToker, @apple28954, shared a clip with the caption, “I miss you, Loong Tu, very much. When you were in office, I criticised you a lot. I’m sorry.” Another user, @tip-time48, showcased her entire family expressing their fondness for Prayut, despite previous criticisms. Political analysts suggest this trend may be partly due to dissatisfaction with the current government. The new leadership, headed by the Pheu Thai party, has been criticised for failing to address urgent national issues. Their focus on the “digital wallet” scheme, a major campaign promise, has overshadowed other pressing concerns. Sudarat Keyuraphan, leader of the Thai Sang Thai party, echoed public sentiment in a recent interview, questioning whether the current administration’s shortcomings have led to the growing nostalgia, reported Thai PBS. When asked about the trend, current Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin acknowledged Prayut’s long tenure and his accomplishments. However, the true identity of the TikTok user “Celestial Sound,” who produced the viral song, remains a mystery. They stated their independence from political affiliations and clarified that artificial intelligence was only used for musical composition, not as a stance. Interestingly, Celestial Sound hinted at more politically charged content to come, with a song about Thaksin Shinawatra, another influential figure in Thai politics, on the horizon. As this nostalgic wave continues to ripple across social media, it remains to be seen how it will shape public opinion and political discourse in Thailand. -- 2024-08-03 - Cigna offers a variety of health insurance plans designed to meet the minimum requirement for medical treatment coverage, with benefits reaching up to THB 3 million.

Yep Schofield has got them playing tough footy at the moment FJ. The crowd wasn't booing Darling. They were booing after he missed because they thought he should've gotten a fifty. Our supporters rarely boo out own. Simmo got a standing ovation. -

Cheap Charlie?
Yes, fluid is spelled correctly. "certainly" is not. Perhaps you don't understand what syntax is. "the arrangement of words and phrases to create well-formed sentences in a language". Calling me a know-it-all is ad hominem argument, and underlines your sniping credentials. -

I only went in very rarely. It did not matter much to me. I usually went around the corner and got one of the 99 baht fresh made pizzas. -
