Guest Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Any idea for Thailand perhaps ... I notice the United Kingdom as of October will no longer use a paper tax disc on vehicles , as almost all on-road enforcement now use automatic number plate readers and have a digital record of who has paid. Are many countries the same ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 I saw what happened here in the mid 1970s, when OPEC decided to increase the price of oil considerably. Almost overnight, it seemed, prices in Thailand went up by about one-third. The added cost was all laid to the increased transportation costs.
