THAILAND LIVE Thailand Live Monday 7 July 2025
Thai Baht's Rise in Jeopardy Amid Political Uncertainty File photo for reference only The Thai baht's recent four-month rally faces challenges as political turmoil threatens to impact the nation's economy. According to Christoper Wong, a senior FX strategist at Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp, the baht may trade at 32.30 per US dollar (approximately 35.98 Thai Baht) by year-end and into early 2026. This suggests only a modest 0.7% increase from its current level following a 5% surge in the past months.

Foreigners Flaunting Wealth in Thailand: How Is It Viewed?
Load of cobblers. Know several dollar millionaires that choose to live here full time, since Thailand is sound whether one is rich or living by normal means. Would personally divide my time, but majority would still be here. -

Foreigners Flaunting Wealth in Thailand: How Is It Viewed?
It's always best to keep a low profile. Ostentatious displays of wealth, apart from being vulgar, are only likely to attract the wrong kind of attention. -

Economy Thai Baht's Rise in Jeopardy Amid Political Uncertainty
File photo for reference only The Thai baht's recent four-month rally faces challenges as political turmoil threatens to impact the nation's economy. According to Christoper Wong, a senior FX strategist at Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp, the baht may trade at 32.30 per US dollar (approximately 35.98 Thai Baht) by year-end and into early 2026. This suggests only a modest 0.7% increase from its current level following a 5% surge in the past months. Wong highlights several factors that could hinder further appreciation, including slower tourism, subdued domestic demand, political upheaval, and tariff uncertainty. "Compared to other Asian currencies, the baht may continue to struggle," Wong noted on Friday. Concerns have intensified following the suspension of Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, leading to fears of delays in the national budget and economic stimulus. This situation might push the central bank to implement deeper interest rate cuts to support growth, which has already been sluggish. While most Asian currencies have gained ground against the dollar due to US economic challenges, the baht's relationship with gold prices—a traditional support—has weakened. This shift suggests domestic issues are becoming more significant to investors. Wong, recognised as the top-ranked baht forecaster in recent months, attributes this status to accuracy in prediction metrics. Despite not visiting Thailand for client-related activities, his insights continue to guide investor expectations. Uncertainty around tariffs and political stability leads investors to adopt a cautious stance. "There's too much unpredictability to take decisive positions," Wong emphasised, suggesting a wait-and-see approach might dominate the market in the coming months.

Woman with biggest lips says she has pain
Extreme cosmetic surgery procedures, such as excessively large lip injections, could potentially be a symptom of underlying mental health issues. Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is one example of a condition that causes individuals to become fixated on perceived flaws in their appearance. Surgeons should be barred from this type of dis figuration of a person. Whoever did this to her should be ashamed. -

Bank Account and proof of Visa status
One thing that concerns me for the future is that I want to set up my social security (healthcare) in Thailand with the 432 baht direct debit taken automatically every month from this account. If the bank closes the account, this would be a problem.
