'Most economists agree on what money is *for*: It is a unit of account, a medium of exchange, and a store of value. Most textbooks claim that it emerged from barter as a private-sector way of making transactions easier, and the total absence of historical or anthropological evidence for this claim has hardly slowed it down. Yet this is where the agreement ends and the problems begin'

Thailand Considering Visa Waivers for Travelers from Few Specific Nations
With their struggling tourism industry and long-haul tourism in mind, Thailand is considering a 15-day visa exemption for travelers from a few specific nations, according to a news article by VnExpress.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the article of VnExpress. Some parts in boldface…
Thailand is considering a 15-day visa exemption for travelers from Colombia, Mexico and Uzbekistan to ease visa processing delays and attract more long-haul visitors.
The Ministry of Tourism and Sports will submit a proposal to the visa policy committee on Nov. 9, Tourism and Sports Minister Surasak Phancharoenworakul said on Monday, as reported by The Nation Thailand.
The proposal comes amid growing concerns that visa-processing delays are disrupting Thailand’s long-haul tourism market, particularly travel from Latin America, with passenger show-up rates on some flights falling by 20% to 30%, Khaosod English news site reported.
Emirates recently filed a complaint with the Tourism Authority of Thailand after 20-30 passengers per flight from Mexico failed to show up because they had not received their visas in time, local media reported.
Surasak said the ministry was seeking a long-term solution to persistent visa delays affecting Mexico and other Latin American markets. The committee will assess the proposal’s security and economic implications, with the ministry seeking exemptions for countries considered to pose low security risks.
Chiravadee Khunsub, deputy governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand overseeing international markets in Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and Africa, said visa procedures had also affected arrivals from Uzbekistan, Thai Examiner reported.
Uzbek travelers previously had to apply for Thai e-visas through the Royal Thai Embassy in Russia, a process that travel agents in Uzbekistan considered cumbersome.
Some travelers subsequently canceled their Thailand holiday packages and chose competing destinations, including Vietnam.
The proposed exemption aims to simplify entry procedures, reduce disruptions to travel plans and restore confidence among international tour operators and airline partners.
Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Do you think Thailand’s move to grant visa exemptions to travelers from Colombia, Mexico and Uzbekistan makes a lot of sense? Do you think Thailand will be able to match its 2025 foreign tourist arrival numbers before the end of this year? What was single biggest problem you had when it came to visiting Thailand?

Hi,
Not an expert by far on this topic, however, I do understand a bit (correct me where I am off) has been a while seeing that documentary on my plane trip to Shanghai..

downside is energy cost and high tec step up civilization building compared to a chest with gold buried somewhere.

"On top of the $53.6 million it spent directly on races this cycle, United Democracy Project [AIPAC superPAC] poured another $13.1 million into Democratic primaries by giving #money to other committees whose names or stated agendas indicated no connection to #Israel policy. That $13.1 million, more than triple the $3.5 million United Democracy gave through other groups last cycle, helped fund at least three pop-up PACs that formed this year."

Anyone preaching that money doesn't matter is either completely broke or lying straight to your face. Money crushes 90 percent of life’s worst obstacles instantly. Stop swallowing the broke-ass propaganda from people telling you otherwise. Secure your bag, stack your leverage, and never let anyone gaslight you.
#Money - People have a kind of block or normalised view for #Banks they can't seem go against. Too polite, it's paradoxical.
We probably have to have #banks because it solves all the #distance people want and lack of #responsibility or #respect. Nothing less would prob work that ties all these #bad loose ends.
Would be too talkative and really hard to accept people / find place for them.
Not crush their #individuality but find place for them instead of 1 cookie-cutter #system of "#work").
