Baht's Biggest Surge Since 1998 Poses Risk to Tourism And Exports
A rather naive answer. The beer for 60 baht is very expensive if the majority of Thai people are on a low wage. -

Baht's Biggest Surge Since 1998 Poses Risk to Tourism And Exports
When I came here 20 years ago, I got 73 to 1 UKP. I used to import 5K = 350,000 baht regularly. I spent freely; a new car every 3 years; an expensive house/furniture/clothes; meals out in top restaurants; etc. Now I have an ailing 8 year old car; a rented property; cook all my meals at home; and check supermarket prices to save a baht here & there. Any further attacks on my income will drive me to the Philippines where I will unfreeze my UK State pension and receive the equivalent of a 450,000 baht increase in my annual income.- 1

Man With Machete Kills Ex Brother-in-Law, Injures Ex Wife’s Parents in Domestic Dispute
To nip this in the bud. Blaming the woman might be a little short sighted but her not allowing him to see his child might have started him on this path of destruction. It happens to a lot of us fathers when custody is the issue. Women think they can do whatever they want and get away with it. Of course I'm not saying this is what happened, but it does start a fire sometimes. Going to these lengths is obviously wrong and no one wins here, especially the children, because they now lost an uncle, a dad and their thinking will be damaged for a long time to come. My ex in Texas took my children, illegally, out of school then out of state, and nothing was changed until I went back to court and showed the judge the paperwork showing she wasn't allowed to do this, and they were given back to me. I have nothing but respect for a good woman but nothing but contempt for those that do anything to hurt the relationship between a child and their father. The same goes the other way , although it happens in only a small percentage of the time. The best way to fight this, if she wasn't allowing him to see his children, is to go to court. A father has rights a court can't interfere with unless he's doing something wrong to the children. Saying this, this man might have just been jealous or hellbent on damage because of a mental illness, so we don't know until we know. -

Rotterdam Stabbing Rampage Knifeman shouted "Allahu Akbar"
"These guys reckon we are fools allowing Muslims to integrate into western society. " Yes totally agree with your sentiment, the thing is they DON'T integrate or assimilate into western society? That seems to be a huge part of the problem? -

Best Song of Past 100 Years? Your Vote?
LOL? People who are interested in music listen to music from many eras. Some of my favorite recordings were made before I was born. There are those who let current fads and current popularity limit their experience of music and there is nothing wrong with that. However, it seriously limits your opportunities to enjoy music. For instance, Taylor Swift indicates that Paul McCartney and Joni Mitchell have been significant influences on her song writing. Both of those artists wrote the bulk of their best music before Taylor was born. There is a saying: " If you laugh at what you don't understand, you will always have a lot to laugh at". But no matter, it is a seriously ancient saying. -

Teamsters’ Neutral Stance: A Blow to Harris and a Challenge for Trump
Gun buy back schemes evolution voluntary participation, a gun owner hands in a gun they don’t want and get paid for it. The number of guns in circulation is voluntarily reduced. Where’s the objection. -

When to retire in Thailand: A guide to your dream retirement
Being sought after as a "tax target" to pay for a debt that foriengers didn't create or have anything to do with is anoying. One can't really make roots in Thailand as foriengers are in a state of continuous "tax limbo" as the government schemes of ways to dig deeper into their "guests" pockets. Franky, the juice isn't worth the squeeze anymore. -

What’s the best area in Thailand for expats to settle for long-term living?
Jesus 2 here. And, many of my friends. Save the frogs is just totally clueless--especially with his utterly ridiculous statement that 92% of the women in Pattaya are bargirls. Guess he missed all the women working in the thousands of retail establishments, in all the hotels and tourist businesses, in the hundreds and hundreds of restaurants, in the 4 or 5 large hospitals Pattaya has, plus its numerous optical stores, pharmacies, general and dental clinics, etc., etc. Yet another one who visited Pattaya and, from his laughable comments, never left Walking Street.
