Truth Social shares go into freefall after investors learn how much money it really makes
If I had to guess, I'd say they'll low-ball the cr*p out of this thing. It's going to be a matter of supply and demand. I doubt the retail pissants, aka Trump supporters, will be able to absorb the volume of sales and the price would have to come down. How hard and fast, we shall see. -

Does anyone have a PDF of the "checklist" that they could share? This seems like an important document to consult! But I can't access it b/c of the technical difficulties on the Embassy website. -

paying taxes in thailand as an american
Keep in mind the USA is NOT a member of CRS. Thailand don’t have a clue about your American accounts unless you tell them. If you are staying current on your U.S. taxes, combine that with the exclusions for dual tax agreements, unless you are remitting huge sums you have basically zero chance of anyone in Thailand getting at you for taxes. -

Kamala Harris Backs Controversial Supreme Court Overhaul Amid Growing Political Divide
What? He went on vacation in California for a week, then went directly to Delaware for another vacation. He's not doing anything except putting suntan lotion on Jill's back.- 1

More than 200 Bush, McCain, Romney aides endorse Harris
Trump already learned the lesson last time, every single worker employed at the white house will be sacked immediately on day 1 when Trump arrives. There will be no more 'aides' employed who are secretly working for the Neocons and Dems. They all know it and they are annoyed that this time around Trump will nuke the swamp and will take no prisoners. Ukraine is over baby, and after sorting out Putin and Zelensky, Trump will pull NATO back into line, and will end all the billions of wasted money spent on never ending wars that achieve nothing.- 1

Thailand Expects Influx of 2 Million Korean Tourists During Chuseok
Picture courtesy: Facebook/Yim Yam Hostel & Garden Thailand is gearing up for a significant influx of South Korean tourists during the upcoming six-day Chuseok holiday, hoping to hit a record high of 2 million Korean visitors by the year's end. This surge is seen as crucial for Thailand's tourism sector, which has consistently seen South Korean tourists as a top inbound market. Chuwit Sirivejkul, regional director of marketing for East Asia at the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), revealed that from the start of 2023 until now, around 1.22 million Korean tourists have already visited Thailand. On average, daily arrivals range between 5,000 to 7,000 visitors, indicating a strong, steady flow. These visitors include independent tourists, family groups, honeymooners, golfers, and business travellers. Last year's Chuseok holiday saw 737,687 South Koreans travelling abroad, surpassing numbers from 2019, suggesting a robust travel habit among South Koreans that could benefit Thailand. Chuwit expects around 23,000 South Korean tourists to visit Thailand from September 14-17 during Chuseok, each spending an average of 40,000 to 50,000 baht (US$1,180 to 1,470). This period, though popular for domestic events and promotions, still attracts plenty of outbound travel. With flights between Thailand and South Korea fully resumed, the market is primed for further growth in the final quarter. Last year saw 1.66 million South Korean tourists compared to 1.88 million in 2019, showing potential for hitting the 2 million mark this year. Sisdivachr Cheewarattanaporn, President of the Association of Thai Travel Agents (ATTA), observed that Korean tour groups are making a comeback, albeit in smaller sizes. In response, ATTA is planning a promotional roadshow to Seoul and Kwangju next month, aiming to draw even more travellers. Promotions targeting the South Korean market are crucial, especially amid strong competition from Vietnam and Japan. By July, over 5.1 million Koreans had visited Japan, and Vietnam saw 3.6 million Korean visitors, making Koreans their largest visitor group in 2023. TAT aims to capitalise on repeat visitors and appeal to younger generations by promoting quality products and attractions, hoping to bolster Thailand’s position as a top destination for South Korean tourists. -- 2024-08-29 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe -
