Thai Goods Price Surge Triggers Growing Concerns
Thai Goods Price Surge Triggers Growing Concerns

snoop1130 · just now1 min

Consumers across the country are increasingly concerned about the rising costs of goods, driven by global energy prices and disrupted supply chains due to the conflict in the Middle East. Residents in various provinces report noticeable increases in prices for essentials such as dried foods and household items. This escalation in living costs is linked to surging energy, raw material, and transport expenses globally, impacting budgets, especially for low-income families and small businesses. Ge

Why do electric-power outages very rarely happen during evening hours?
Why do electric-power outages very rarely happen during evening hours?

GammaGlobulin · 17 hours ago17 hr

Dear Folks, Have you ever wondered why grid-related power outages are extremely rare during evening hours, while PEA workers are asleep? Yet, they happen all the time while these PEA workers are awake and ON-THE-JOB? Ever wondered about THIS? Just an innocent question...and.... Can you, or anyone, provide a good and logical explanation? Please feel free to chime-in with your thoughts. Thank you. Best regards, Gamma NOTE: By evening hours, we mean about 7:00pm to 5:30am, in case we need

After Aggressive Pruning: Can/will this tree even survive?
After Aggressive Pruning: Can/will this tree even survive?

GammaGlobulin · 28 minutes ago28 min

Dear Folks, As we all know, most trees in the city, or the suburbs, get pruned. Most seem to survive this cutting. However, some never recover. At this time, I am worried about my favorite tree which has been growing near my property for some time, and which has provided me with welcome shade from the sun, during the Hot Seasons. I have no idea concerning the botanical name for this species of tree. I just know that it once was beautiful. My hope is that it will re-grow into its former se

Does Thailand Have A Sniffing Obsession?
Does Thailand Have A Sniffing Obsession?

SoCal1990 · 21 hours ago21 hr

I have always been slightly baffled by Thailand’s long running love affair with menthol and camphor inhalers. Years ago you used to see people everywhere walking around with those little stick inhalers jammed up their nostrils. Often they would just leave them hanging there unattended like an ornamental piece of nose jewelry. Some of them even had that double barrel design so you could apparently ventilate both sides of your brain at the same time. Back then it was a common sight to see a Thai b

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

SoCal1990 · Tuesday at 06:24 PM1 day

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

Do colourblind glasses and/or colourblind contact lens work?
Do colourblind glasses and/or colourblind contact lens work?

Bredbury Blue · Sunday at 05:43 AM4 days

Do colourblind glasses and/or colourblind contact lens work? 1 in 12 men are colourblind apparently, so that means quite a few of you reading this are colourblind. I am red/green colourblind. Not really a problem: a minor problem sometimes watching football, buying clothes, seeing birds in trees - minor stuff. I have no problem seeing red and green when driving. I do though have a major problem when it comes to passing the colourblindness test(s) in the Thai driving licence renewal. I have pa

Cardiologist (angiogram/stent)

Letseng · Tuesday at 11:01 AM1 day

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.
