What is the current 2025 Cost of a Cremation in Thailand?
The donations are usually controlled by a family member and the bookkeeping would put some banks to shame. Many years ago my missus lost her young son and she was most moved by the 20 Baht donation from an 80 year old villager who has nothing and walked 2 km from just outside the village to attend the cremation. I am sure there are a few wats that will provide a cremation only service; I have only heard of two - one near Pattaya and one in Buriram province. -

Overstay question
Immigration will not concern themselves with your bank account due to an overstay or any other reason. However, if you have the proceeds of crime deposited or passing through your account, the Anti-Money Laundering Office potentially could. -

US automakers fuming after Trump’s first trade deal gives preferential treatment to imports
Says a person who hides behind the name of a murderous Stalin henchman and who's avatar is a snake. Regarding OnlyFans I appreciate that you're getting impatient, but going from the concept of an idea to producing actual content takes time. I hope you understand. -

No one is above the law even New Jersey politicians.
Remember there were initially invited into the prison, then asked to leave which they did, going into the public carpark, before ICE stormed in... Now ICE etc are trying to claim they were assaulted by the congressmen, one of which is 80. They've threatened them with arrest. "The notion that I or any of my colleagues ‘body slammed’ armed federal officers is absurd. DHS is lying because they know their agents were out of line.” https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/dhs... Homeland Security Dept. accuses lawmakers of ‘storming’ an ICE facility despite oversight laws saying they could be there Three members of Congress from New Jersey, along with protesters, faced off with Department of Homeland Security officers on Friday after visiting a local ICE detention facility. The incident started as officers attempted to arrest the mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka, after he tried to join the lawmakers inside the facility. As tensions grew, so did the physicality of the situation, with officers and lawmakers pushing and shouting at one another before Baraka, a Democrat, was ultimately detained for several hours. He was released Friday evening. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/05/10/politics/dhs-la... 2 years before Congresswoman Taylor-Greene pointedly used her right as an elected official to visit and commisserate with violent criminals in prison https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/mar/27/marjorie-taylor-greene-led-delegation-to-visit-capitol-attack-defendants-in-jail https://www.rev.com/transcripts/marjorie-taylor-greene-matt-gaetz-press-conference-after-trying-to-see-january-6-prisoners My late father was a fan of "lock 'em up", and trusting the system. Then he volunteered, when retired, to be an official visitor to police stations. Members of the public can go in, and see the cells, speak to the inmates. He was shocked. Most of the inmates were kids. They had done wrong, but he became sympathetic when he saw them squatting in cells with no mattress, given a piss soaked blanket by the custody sergeant, denied a hot meal. He was ex-Army, and knew the police were being delinquent, and he ripped them a new one, telling them to do their job. After that first visit, even though he was an ex-smoker, he would take a pack of ciggies in. He wanted these lads to realise the error or their ways, but they were entitled to be treated humanely. So I have sympathies with both the Republican congressmen who wanted to speak to 6th January Insurgents as well as the Democrat politicians wanting to meet those in ICE custody. In both cases, there are federal jobsworths who probably are trying to cover things up, (not doing their job basically). To block a mayor seems semantics. As the former judge said, normally facility officials are overjoyed when politicians want to visit them. -

Tahilands number 1 forum improves by leaps and bounds since Thaiger takeover.
They'd still have to move 3 more pegs to the right to get into balance. Edit: Though I do concede that they're presenting more on the right than they used to.
