Thai Banks Slow Lending To Small Developers

April 23, 201312 yr

The absolute best thing that the govt can do is to force dome transparancy on the market.

Everything else just twists and convolutes

Thailand would also do well to allow married foreigners +3yrs to buy condos and housing up to 1 rai (1) with money brought in from abroad. 100% ownership with wifey not on the title.

As tensions continue in the ongoing USA/ Israel /Iran conflict, the Strait of H has become an extremely dangerous route for commercial shipping, with ships sometimes targeted for allegedly ignoring warnings ,most recently the Thai cargo ship Mayuree Naree, where crew members were put to the test.

No fuel import for US embassy in Cuba

The US is starving Cuba, also of fuel. But the US embassy tried to circumvent this and import their own fuel, to keep the generator running. No says Cuba, shameful. We suffer, you have to suffer as well. https://apnews.com/article/cuba-fuel-embassy-trump-blockade-dd5a11ac933daf258d3f689e7cbb822d

JerryM replied to riclag's topic in Political Soapbox

Per the topic title: Comey subpoena again, News Subpoenas can challenged and quashed by the Judge. Since the Judge is likely to be Ms. Cannon, she may deny the motion. From AI Gemini: Generally, a ruling on a motion to quash a grand jury subpoena is not immediately appealable because it is not considered a final order. Contempt Requirement: To challenge a denied motion to quash, the recipient must typically defy the subpoena and allow a judge to find them in contempt, which is a final, appealable order.

Do expats in Thailand see relationships differently over time?

The Cobra · 3 hours ago3 hr

I’ve been thinking about this for a while and wasn’t sure how to word it without it sounding wrong, but here goes. Living in Thailand has changed how I look at relationships. Not overnight, and not in some dramatic way, but gradually over time. Back home, things felt more fixed. People settled into a certain pattern — similar age, similar background, similar expectations. Here, it feels different. The range of relationships you see is much wider, and the expectations don’t always line up the sam

Pros and Cons of Screen Obsession Culture in Thailand

123Stodg · Thursday at 10:03 PM1 day

For a long time I have thought about the ways Thailand has changed since the rise of smartphones, back when people were not constantly nose diving into their screens. When I first arrived, smartphones did not even exist. My first phone was a big clunky Nokia with a black and white screen and a bendy retractable antenna. Then came the race to make phones smaller, with those tiny little Motorola flip phones everywhere. Nokia and Ericsson were still popular, although not quite as compact. Then the
