American Passport Renewal Process
After making an appointment I dropped off my passport and application at American Consular Services in Bangkok on July 14. Received new passport today August 5. So it took 22 days soup to nuts. Although the envelope had some damage the passport seems ok. -

Report Thai Developer Buys 500 Passenger eVTOL Aircraft
Buriram is only a bit over 300kms so it could do that quite easily. I assume the wide range is because there will be different models for different applications, just like we have with EVs. I don't think these things are a great idea, but don't see why Buriram wouldn't be achievable. -

My friend has an infection down there.
If her sexual partners are asymptomatic, vaginitis may be more likely than an STD. But if not - or if this fact cannot be ascertained - then STDs must also be kept in mind. Putting STIs aside, there are many type of vaginal infections a woman can have and treatment for each differs. Excluding STIs, the main types are fungal (candida), trichomonal and bacterial. There are some "3 in one" preparations to be had which can be useful when it is nto clear which type is present, as follows: Gynecon Neo-Penetran Forte and some others. No presecription needed. These are vaginal suppositiories, to be inserted before bed. Use up the full pack. Please ignore the suggestion for Amoxicillin Clavulanate (clamoxil) as this is not effective treatment for vaginitis and indeed can make some types worse. If above treatment does not work then there is nothing for it but to see a doctor. Ditto if an STI is suspected. -

U.K. EV values fall off a cliff
UK Gov Electric Car Grant launched Car manufacturers can apply for vehicle eligibility for the grant from 16 July 2025. The Electric Car Grant has 2 bands. £3,750 for the most sustainably produced cars and £1,500 for cars that meet some environmental criteria. This is in recognition of the need to address embedded carbon emissions across a vehicle’s lifetime, as well as tailpipe emissions. Vehicles that do not meet minimum sustainability standards will not be eligible for a grant. The minimum environmental criterion is for manufacturers to hold a verified science based target. Science based targets are commitments corporate entities make to reduce their environmental impact, in line with the UK’s international climate commitments, which are verified by the independent Science Based Targets Initiative. The amount of grant available per vehicle will depend on the level of emissions associated with production of the vehicle. Emissions from vehicle production are assessed against the carbon intensity of the electricity grid in the country where vehicle assembly and battery production are located. https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/electric-car-grant-launched Not all EV brands are happy with the grants some labelling them as stupid World's largest EV maker brands Labour's Electric Car Grant 'stupid' It has been fuelled by reports that Chinese car makers have seemingly been left short by the UK Government; it is reported that the region's ongoing reliance on coal-powered energy for its vehicle assembly and battery manufacturing will fail to adhere to the scheme's sustainability criteria. Manufacturers will discover if they've met the required thresholds to qualify early next month. https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/electriccars/article-14932769/Worlds-largest-EV-maker-brands-Labours-Electric-Car-Grant-stupid.html Five brands discounting EVs over concerns they'll be excluded from grants -

Tourism Indian Street Opens in Songkhla to Lure Tourists
It appears that you have a reading comprehension deficiency and/or an inherent bias such that you are predisposed to misunderstand statements of fact. I am aware of the difference between Muslims and Hindus. The exposure is not to Hindu initiated violence. Nor is wahhabism implicated in the recent violent incidents in Songkhla. The article refers to the Indian Malaysia demographic as a source of tourism. My comment is in respect to concerns for their personal safety. These visitors are prudent to be vigilant, even hesitant. Their own government says this. After last year's multiple attacks, the Malaysian government released this statement; ARSON ATTACKS IN PATTANI, YALA AND NARATHIWAT, SOUTHERN THAILAND PROVINCES, 22 MARCH 2024 The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, through the Consulate General of Malaysia in Songkhla, is closely monitoring events following a spate of arson attacks in the southern Thailand provinces of Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat in the early hours of 22 March 2024. As of the most recent report, there were no Malaysians involved or affected by the incidents. The Consulate General of Malaysia in Songkhla is actively coordinating efforts with local authorities to obtain further information. Malaysians in the vicinity of these incidents are urged to stay vigilant and follow the latest updates and guidance provided by the local authorities. Malaysians requiring consular assistance can contact the Consulate General of Malaysia in Songkhla at the details provided below: CONSULATE GENERAL OF MALAYSIA IN SONGKHLA Will you be wagging your finger and lecturing multiple foreign governments as well? The New Zealand Foreign Office has this warning; Conflict: There is an ongoing threat of violence in the southernmost provinces of Narathiwat, Yala, Pattani and Songkhla. Bombings and shootings are common in these provinces and over 6,500 people have been killed in an ongoing insurgency since 2004. Foreigners have been caught up in this violence in the past.
