This is shown by the amount of Buddhist temples around Thailand. The culture has heavy influences from modern day, but still has heavy links to tradition. This is shown by the food, language, music, dance and arts around Bangkok.]]> 2018-10-24 23:55:01 UTC https://padlet.com/b_sibley_01010/o1eppgxleudy/wish/296721460 b_sibley_01010 https://padlet.com/b_sibley_01010/o1eppgxleudy/wish/296722222 Bangkok's economy is heavily held up by their exports.

This is equal to ~99 billion in AUD.

Many of the tourists who travel to Thailand come for widely varied reasons.

A simple law that would fix this is one that disallows having multiple children.

Environmental deterioration is the most significant problem in Bangkok, as it ruins many things. Whether it is the lives of innocent animals, or ruining land that houses are build on, this problem affects all residents of Bangkok. Introducing more laws concerning the environment and about protecting it could help stop this before it puts the entire country in ruin.]]> 2018-10-29 03:32:05 UTC https://padlet.com/b_sibley_01010/o1eppgxleudy/wish/297863248
