A chain of Thai restaurants now uses robot servers

Inflation this year has caused prices for a variety of goods to soar both in Thailand and globally. The chain’s prices have only slightly increased, according to Vitoon Silaon, the company’s chief executive, despite a 30-40% increase in operational expenditures in the first half of this year. Even if individuals are currently being careful about their purchasing, according to Vitoon, S&P wants to keep its customers. Bakery goods are typically not the most essential items in people’s life, he noted. Thailand’s Central Committee on the Price of Goods and Services will maintain the prices on the 46 products frozen until the end of June of the next year, according to Commerce Minister Jurin Laksanawisit’s statement in June. S&P is also updating its dining establishments to keep up its momentum. The servers at a chain of Thai restaurants are now robots. Robotics are being used by S&P, a network of bakeries…

Red curry paste and coconut milk are used to make Khao Soi soup. Depending on how much curry paste is used, the heat level fluctuates. Before reaching northern Thailand in the 19th and 20th centuries, traders traveled through Burma and Laos along the Golden Triangle trade route.

Banned sellers have relocated in front of Na Jomtien Beach

While some vendors may still be unhappy about having to relocate, it’s good news for visitors and travelers who can now enjoy the golden beaches without having to dodge booths, chairs, tables, and dispersed trash. Without clogging up the beach, they can purchase food and beverages from the sellers, go sit on a mat or beach chair, and take in the beach vibes. On June 27, local authorities made the decision to forbid any local vendors from erecting their businesses on the beach. However, they also pledged to find a suitable spot for the hawkers and peddlers who would be adversely affected by the decision.

On one incident, entry to South Korea was refused to 110 Thai nationals

10,377 Thai nationals who were discovered to be working illegally in South Korea were deported in only 2022. 10,000 Thai citizens have visited South Korea after the country “reopened” during the outbreak. 50 percent of them—or more than 5,000—have been turned away and sent home, according to the Daily News. Although the Korea Times did not specify if the Thais who were turned away had a K-ETA or the appropriate visa, it is probably safe to infer that 110 passengers on one trip weren’t sufficiently unprepared to possess neither. Therefore, it is unknown why they were denied admittance. The Korea Times reported yesterday that 110 Thai tourists traveling on a single flight were refused admission to the South Korean island of Jeju and deported back to Thailand. According to sources, a startling 50% of all Thais entering South Korea have been turned away at the border since Korea’s post-pandemic “reopening”…
