October 19, 2023: Thailand like Vietnam also defied the US’ demands to isolate Russia as Putin is now set to visit there soon

Just like Vietnam, Thailand openly defied the demands of the United States (US) and its Vassals to isolate Russia, and now not only did their Thai Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin INVITED Russian President Vladimir Putin, but Putin now has ACCEPTED that Invitation and is set to make his visit there soon also. 

So that makes TWO Countries in South East Asia (SEA) who are just too smart for the US and refuses to be Dogs them like the Philippines. No wonder they are more Progressive than us since they refuse to be tied down to the US’ bullsh*t Priorities. 

I wouldn’t be surprised if Vietnam and Thailand are polite towards the Philippines, but laugh at our Backs at just how st*p*d we are to agree to be Pet Canines of the US. We DESERVE such mockery and ridicule because of our Subservience to the US, and how we keep falling behind in Terms of Economic Progress in SEA because of that

June 2, 2023: After visiting Vietnam, China’s Qi Jiguang Training Vessel visited Thailand, now off to Brunei

After visiting Vietnam, China’s largest and most modern Training Vessel, the “Qi Jiguang (83)” went off to visit Thailand where its Crew and Passengers met with Commander in Chief of the Royal Thai Navy (RTN) and then visited the RTN Academy, the RTN Aircraft Carrier HTMS Chakri Naruebet, various Schools and Industrial Zones, etc. 

A friendly Football Match was also held between China and Thailand, and the Ship was also opened to the Thai Public. The Vessel has already left Thailand and is now visiting Brunei

May 28, 2023: China is the Top Source of FDIs for Thailand, but Vietnam also giving Thailand good competition for China’s FDIs

China was the main Source of Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) to Thailand in February 2023, providing 24% of the Total FDIs worth Usd 420 million (Thb 14.76 billion at Usd 1 = Thb 35). For the entire Year of 2022, China also was the main FDI Source of Thailand worth Usd 2.2 billion (Thb 77.3 billion). 

Thailand though is concerned that Vietnam is giving them good competition for China’s FDIs. And as I had reported before, the United States’ (US) Intelligence Services also managed to mount a successful Propaganda Operation in Thailand recently when their Proxies won the Thai Elections

May 23, 2023: Unconfirmed Reports say that the US is denying the sale of its F-35 Stealth Aircraft to Thailand

Unconfirmed Reports by Anonymous Sources from the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) says that the United States (US) is denying the sale of its F-35 Lightning II Aircraft to Thailand on the Grounds that Thailand is does not have enough capability yet to support the Aircraft, and are offering their F-16 and F-15 Eagle Aircraft instead.

The US is set to give their official response to Thailand in July of this Year of 2023, so this Report may just be an advanced Leak to test how Thailand will react. Observers note that another reason for the denial of sale is because of Thailand’s closeness with China, and I think that may be true as the sale of the F-35 to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) also did not push thru due to concerns about UAE’s closeness with China. 

If I were Thailand, I would go over and buy Fighter Aircraft from China instead which will have much less Strings attached to it. However, the US though won big in Thailand recently when the Pro-US, Anti-China Opposition that they were backing won a Landslide Victory in the Elections

May 15, 2023: US wins big not only in the Philippines, but also in recent Elections in Thailand

The United States (US) has won big not only in the Philippines, but also in the recent Thailand Elections when their Pro-US, Anti-China Proxies won by a Landslide. This was pointed out by Brian Berletic, a Geopolitical Analyst who himself is based in Thailand, so he knows what he is talking about when it comes to Thai Politics

April 25, 2023: Thailand receives the humungous Type 071E Landing Dock it bought from China

Thailand finally received recently its the Type 071E Landing Dock (LD) that it acquired from China which was named as the HTMS Chang (792). The Type 071E is the export version of the Type 071 that is also in Service with the People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) and in fact could be used by them if War breaks out in Taiwan. 

The Type 071E is 210 m long, can weigh up to 25,000 tons, can carry up to 800 Troops, 4 Air-cushioned Landing Crafts and 60 Vehicles. It’s Landing Pad can accommodate two Heavy Lift Helicopters and its Hangar can accommodate up to 4 Helicopters. 

The Ship reportedly cost around Usd 200 million and is much bigger than any of the Philippine Navy’s (PN) Ships, including the Tarlac-class LDs which are only 123 m long and weighs around 11,500 tons.

April 13, 2023: American Company Apple Inc. again leaves out the Philippines in South East Asia, now plans to make Macbooks in Thailand

Another big American Company, this time Apple Incorporated again ignores the Philippines because after making their Products in Communist Vietnam, they are now planning to make their Products in Thailand. This goes to show that the Americans only think about themselves and their Profits, they absolutely give no consideration that the Philippines is their Mutual Defense Treaty (MDT) Ally who even just gave them more Free Military Bases. 

There are no more US Military Bases in Thailand and they are not the US’ MDT Partner, the Philippines is, but they just completely ignore that. China wants to continue to invest in the Philippines but are being driven away because self-pronounced “Patriots” say China steals our Territory, but these same supposed “Patriots” are more than willing to give away Sabah to Malaysia

January 11, 2023: No less than FOUR Cabinet Ministers of the current, sitting Thai Government gave a grand welcome to the first batch of Tourists from China that is visiting Thailand since the start osf the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) Pandemic. The Chinese Visitors were even given Flowers and Gifts. So ‘ano na’ for the American A$$ Kissers, what are they going to say now? “Thailand, Province of China”? LMAO. As I kept saying before, in all of South East Asia (SEA), ‘sa Pilipinas lang me nauuto ang mga Kano’ (It is only in the Philippines that the Americans are able to fool People)
