The major backers of "populist" trump
snipped for brevity. As you know trump clearly called for bribes in return for which he would provide extra support for the mega donors industries e.g. one billion dollars from oil industry execs. Just shows how corrupt politics is in the US and no doubt elsewhere. -

Oh well, not worried yet. The wife has just turned 60 and is now getting her Thai state pension. It will be tight but if we grow our own vegetables we might just scrape by on 600 baht a month. -

Surprise Raid: Five Monks Nabbed in Temple Drug Bust
In a surprising crackdown on illegal substances, police in Udon Thani, Thailand, arrested five monks from a well-recognised temple for testing positive for methamphetamine. The unexpected police action, prompted by mounting local complaints about the monks' unseemly activities, has raised eyebrows and resulted in decisive action being taken. Reports of the monks' bizarre conduct, leading to speculation of drug use and radical gatherings, reached the authorities via the Damrongtham Centre in Mueang Udon Thani district. Triggered by these accounts, a surprise inspection was carried out at the temple. Under this directive, local law enforcement, along with provincial institutions of Buddhism, public health authorities, and community figureheads, efficiently executed an unannounced raid on the temple. Upon reaching the temple, officials gathered the monks, including the temple's head, for procedural health checks. Despite one monk attempting to make a run for it, all were asked to give urine samples for drug screening purposes. The tests returned positive results for five monks, ranging from ages 32 to 47, revealing drug exposure in their systems. Further investigation into the monks' living quarters unearthed drug paraphernalia such as foil paper, bamboo pipes for smoking, and zip-lock bags. Sensationally, six meth pills were discovered stashed away in two different locations. Subsequent to these shocking disclosures, the monks have been defrocked and now await legal proceedings. Multiple confessions followed with one monk confessing to sporadic drug use, supplied gratuitously by recently joined members of the clergy. In his defence, one of the implicated monks stated, "Yes, my quarters housed drug paraphernalia, but that's because I'm no stranger to meth." Another said, "I've been here for about three years. I'm not into it that much, but the meth was handed out liberally by a newly recruited monk. I understand it's not right, but I was driven by curiosity." In a surprising twist, defrocked monks expressed relief upon finding the secret stash of meth, declaring that they would have undoubtedly succumbed to the lure if they had discovered it by themselves. The abbot, flummoxed by the revelations, stated his shock and disappointment at the unexpected raid and subsequent results. Leading to grave contemplations on the state of society, the temple now houses only two monks who tested negative for drugs. The local deputy district chief, Yodkorn Petchlum, expressed gratitude to the public for their vigilance and encouraged them to keep reporting any drug-related activities, arguing that such issues impact every community. Maintaining commitment to rigorous enforcement of law and order, Petchlum stated, "We are grateful for the role of the public in ensuring societal peace. If anyone notices any drug-related actions, whether involving monks or the general public, they should immediately report it to the authorities. We will take every report seriously."
