Powerbuy, a Central Group store that first opened in 1996, may be found in every Central retail mall in Thailand. This is also true of Robinsons, their second shopping center. Because it’s nearly impossible to find an electric store in Thailand that offers the greatest services and products at a fair price, making an informed decision is critical.

A prominent noodle shop in Bangkok was forced to close its doors permanently last month after more than 80 years of selling fish meatball noodles. “I’ve never seen ingredients this expensive before,” said the proprietor of the shop.

Mama noodles have been marketed at 6 baht each packet since 2014, but the price will shortly rise to 1 baht per packet, a 50 satang increase. Despite the fact that the cost of ingredients is higher than it has ever been, a restaurant in Chiang Mai’s northern province assures that 3 baht noodles will continue to be available. The restaurant’s owner, Thawat Pirata, stated that he has not raised the price of noodles in 34 years and has no intentions to do so in the future. According to…
