UK will not rejoin EU or enter customs union, Starmer’s Europe minister says

ASEAN NOW News · 4 hours ago4 hr

The UK will not rejoin the European Union or enter into a customs union with the bloc, the minister leading efforts to reset relations with Brussels has said. Nick Thomas-Symonds, the government’s European affairs minister, said there was “no appetite” in Britain to return to the debates that dominated politics after the Brexit referendum. Speaking ahead of a speech in Brussels, he said the government wanted to strengthen cooperation with the EU but ruled out arrangements that would bind the UK

Iran warns of wider attacks as Trump calls for international naval force in Hormuz

ASEAN NOW News · yesterday at 03:27 AM1 day

Iran signals further escalation in regional conflict Iran has warned it may expand its military actions across the Middle East, threatening facilities linked to the United States after President Donald Trump suggested that several countries could send warships to support efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The strategic waterway, through which a large share of global oil supplies normally passes, has been largely closed by Iran since the start of the current conflict. The fighting began nea

123Stodg · Saturday at 03:17 PM1 day

I am not going to address anyone directly because I do not want anyone to feel like a jilted lily, but I have noticed something interesting about my own forum reading habits. For one, I read far more than I post. Often I do not even log in to scan through a few topics, and if someone averages about a dozen posts a day, I tend to skip right over anything they write. It did not start that way. At first I just noticed certain posters who write extremely long posts waffling on about their personal

McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?
McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?

Kyoto Kyle · Friday at 10:31 PM2 days

I’m wondering if McDonald’s beef patties in Thailand are actually any good in terms of meat quality. I can’t remember the last time I had one here. Maybe once or twice many years ago. The reason I’m asking is because I just realized there’s a 24 hour McDonald’s within walking distance of where I’m staying now. If the patties actually taste decent, I was thinking that late one night I might buy two double cheeseburgers, or maybe two Quarter Pounders with cheese, take them home, stack all four pa

Religion is no joking matter!

unblocktheplanet · Saturday at 09:17 AM1 day

Don’t make fun of anybody’s religion… they might be right! The Nation of Islam worldview was dominated by an apocalyptic and prophetic vision which held that the African American, the "original" or "Asiatic" black man, fell into a state of social domination that began with slavery.'1 This situation was a direct result of the machinations of an evil black scientist, Yakub, who grafted white people, also known as "devils," from original black people a little more than 6,000 years ago.

What Level of IQ Is Needed to Reach Pattaya?
What Level of IQ Is Needed to Reach Pattaya?

SoCal1990 · Tuesday at 06:24 PM5 days

I used to assume there was at least some basic level of intelligence and cognitive function required to make it all the way to Pattaya from a foreign land. After all, you have to book an international flight, get yourself through airport security, board the correct plane, deal with immigration at the other end, and then somehow manage ground transport from Bangkok to your final Puh-Tai-Ya destination. That seems like a sequence of tasks that would require at least a halfway functioning brain. Fo

Doctors in Thailand - Approach with some caution
Doctors in Thailand - Approach with some caution

ronnie50 · 57 minutes ago57 min

By and large medical care at Thailand's private hospitals is pretty good. But one thing I've observed through the years of visiting doctors in big private hospitals here is that many/most are not very thorough in asking questions about the patient's medical history. They are often quick to arrive at a current diagnosis, write a prescription, and a return appointment again in 2 weeks. When I say 'not very thorough' - I mean they don't ask you (enough) about your medical past or any other medica

Deficiency on a few vitamins. What should I do?

advancebooking · Saturday at 05:23 AM1 day

Ive been low on copper for 4 yrs and take 2mg everyday for ages. I tried upping the dose to 4mg before but felt a bit sick actually. My Vit D levels are just below the 30 normal range.

Cardiologist (angiogram/stent)

Letseng · Tuesday at 11:01 AM5 days

Had a heart attack a few months ago. Due to a kidney issue doc decided not to do an angiogram at the time because of contrast medium. Can't live with this heart problem as I can't even swim 20m or walk at normal pace. The cardio I see is not a person who explains or likes to answer questions how to get the problem dealt with. Any recommendations for a specialist in Bangkok.
