NZAero has clinched a monumental multi-million dollar agreement with a major Thai firm. The deal, inked during New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon’s diplomatic rendezvous in Thailand, promises a lucrative windfall and a plethora of job opportunities for the Kiwi aviation sector. NZAero’s CEO Stephen Burrows sealed the pact destined to bolster Royal Thai Airforce operations. This pivotal agreement spans maintenance and servicing operations across both Thailand and New Zealand, Burrows disclosed. According to a company statement, this landmark deal with Thai Aviation Industries is poised to inject a multi-million dollar export surge into New Zealand’s aviation domain. The exclusive partnership entails supplying vital aircraft components to Thailand and securing maintenance contracts for the overhaul of numerous aircraft engines annually. Prime Minister Luxon hailed the agreement as “a great outcome on all fronts,” praising NZAero’s triumph in Southeast Asia. Burrows, in the statement, lauded Thailand’s aspirations to establish a premier aviation hub in the Asia-Pacific, foreseeing a triple surge in exports and a deepening bilateral bond. “The new multi-year agreement is set to triple the value of parts and maintenance exports to that market.” Moreover, Burrows anticipated a surge in job creation and industry expansion in New Zealand, fuelled by Thailand’s substantial investments in air force modernisation. With an eye on future collaborations, NZAero aims to introduce its cutting-edge SuperPac XSTOL aircraft to Thai skies, alongside forging alliances with aviation stakeholders in Singapore and the Philippines, reported Waikato Times. While quantifying the exact monetary gains remains elusive, Burrows stressed NZAero’s pivotal role as the original manufacturer of servicing components, poised to capitalise on Thailand’s burgeoning aviation ambitions. In related news, Thailand and New Zealand have vowed to embark on a historic Strategic Partnership journey by 2026, commemorating seven decades of diplomatic camaraderie, revealed government spokesman Chai Wacharonke yesterday. Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin rolled out the red carpet for New Zealand’s Premier at Government House, overseeing the signing of two game-changing Memorandums of Understanding.

For a sophisticated military force who can target the roof of a moving vehicle because some IDF soldier "thought" 3 vehicles were taken over by Hamas, why would they destroy an apartment building to target one apartment and perhaps kill the occupants and NOT kill any other people or destroy the building? That IMHO, is an overkill unless they intended to do so in the first place. Do you really believe that if Hamas released all the hostages that the war would instantly stop and all the IDF would return to Israel? Netanyahu has said that he wants to, in his words, destroy Hamas in Gaza completely. If he does, do you believe think that the war will instantly stop and all the IDF would return to Israel? What if all the hostages are released, Hamas destroyed in Gaza, and the war does not stop? Where will he attack next? The West bank, Lebanon. Jordan or anywhere else there are Palestinians? Will Hamas keep fighting Israel and the IDF until the last warm Palestinian body in Gaza has died and then the war will be over? IMHO the war will never be over until the current leadership in both Hamas AND Israel are removed, and replaced by non religious leaders with common sense, who are sick of the slaughter by BOTH sides.

Yes agree, I also assume that the storage must be liquid ammonia, so initial spread would be over a wider area. The travel distances of any vapour clouds are also greater at night, this is contained in both the emergency response guidebook (ERG) and Wiser app., and this is based of emission rate and dispersion modelling carried out the US Department of Transport (DOT). If these increased night distances are relevant to conditions in Thailand, it has never been clarified, but better to be safe , than regret it later. Even with moisture the problem of build up of ammonia gas in low lying areas, will not be as dangerous as say LPG, but will still need to be considered as part of the response and inspections/testing carried out. I assume some sort of ammonia (NH3) gas detector was available. Looking at the videos and pictures posted, it appears that water spray containment was used to prevent further spread, it is reported that the leaking valve was isolated or closed, and the water spray maintained until all the vapour had been dispersed.

Honking in Thai culture is degrading and disrespectful . Moreover who the honking is intended for is debatable. Better to use highlighting with headlamps if only to inform respective party . -
Change from Visa Exempt to Non-O
DrJack54 replied to Moti24's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I didn't realize that you had the required time up your sleeve so that not a problem. The Non O provides a 90 day stamp and that's plenty to season funds for 2 months for the 12 month extension. If Jomtien plays games and wants the funds in account for 2 months for the Non O application, you could obtain the 60 day extension. -

Pointless unless they do proper prison time. Attempted murder here, should get at least 10 years. But I'm sure they'll get a small fine after a wai or 2. -
Thailand faces severe weather with strong winds and 42C heatwave
Bangkok Barry replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I've been living in Thailand for around 27 years, and this is the longest hot spell I can remember. Some years ago when I lived in Bangkok we had 40 degrees for around 10 straight days, but in Kalasin we've had an entire month of 37-39 degrees. The aircon can't keep up. Now at 39, feels like 42. Bring on the soggy season. -
