Thailand unveils new visa rules, sparks mixed reactions
I wouldn’t give up my retirement visa for any of these and I have no issue with my 800,000 sitting in an account making little or nothing. Anyone that’s been here long enough know things will change 10 more times this year alone and once thing start biting them from not throughly planning long term, there will be further restrictions. So enjoy these while you can as I guarantee they won’t last and you won’t be “living” in Thailand long term like many think they will -

Cost of having a house built?
My wife was looking at this company that does everything for building a house. She said Thai celebrities (many? some?) use the company. https://www.bandee-homebuilder.com/ -

Tommy Robinson Fans UK Riots from Europe
One thing I noticed while living in Thailand was that the vast majority of foreigners living there were right of centre. Much more so than the ratio one would find in their home countries. -

Calories in Thai Beers.
San Mig Zero is so-called because it has zero carbohydrates, but still manages a 3% alcohol content, so I think it's around 60 cal/bottle, the least fattening of all the popular beers here. Well, it's popular in Pattaya where there's a lot of fat farangs, lol. -

I find the fact in the story that "over 50 Kuwaitis attacked 1 Thai man" a little hard to believe. -

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
For whatever reason(s) some people just take being anti-EV to the extreme....even to the point of breaking a law. Maybe they feel they loss a job in a ICEV factory or related industury due to EV sales impacting ICEV sales. Maybe it's really just "displaced" political hatred against a certain political party who the person believes that party supports EVs at the expense of fossil fuel indurstries. And some people are simply A-holes on the road which hailand definitely has its fair share of. One thing for sure though, the percentage of EVs on the roads will continue to grow just like the percentage of ICEV slowly grew over several decades in replacing the horses & buggies. Now I don't believe the BEV growth in Thailand will be rapid over the coming years as BEVs are a major techlogoical change and also means a person must let go of the ICEV technogoly they grew up with....but that will slowly happen through a transition period of Hybrid EV (HEV) growth and people eventually getting completely comfortable with BEV technology. Many will just skip the a HEV and go right to a BEV...others will decided to go HEV (still unsure after BEVs) and then go BEV when it comes time to replace their HEV. It takes time....we are talking a decade or two just like it took decades to transition from the horse & buggy era to the ICEV era....and that transition period will vary greatly from country to country. Preaching to the choir I'm sure.- 1

There's lots to criticize about him, but his military service is not one of those things. I don't think I've seen anyone criticizing him for joining the military. -
