Smokin’ scuffle: Foreigner’s taxi tantrum goes viral in Phuket

At least he didn't give the taxi driver a leg kick leading to PTSD -
Thai doctor in Swiss expat case says she has ‘stress’
cardinalblue replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
Didn't her friend a pathologist diagnose her? What a crock of sh*t? Yes, the foreigner was wrong but it looks like she recovered quite nicely from that physical assault. Send her to the Ukrainian front-lines is she wants to feel what PTSD really feels like... Hope the court is reasonable is their verdict and fair compensation if any -
Foreigners and their overseas income: what next?
cardinalblue replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In the US, you don’t pay taxes on your social security income until the following year so you would have to show your taxes paid for the previous year…some pay a lot and others no taxes based on one’s total taxable income…it can be a cat and mouse game -
Foreigner condemned for driving car on Kamala Beach in Phuket
cardinalblue replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
500k baht and 5 years in jail for driving in the beach compared to burning down their forests in the north amount to 2,000baht fine and no jail time if they are caught where the outcome is millions of citizens are suffering health effects and killing tourism…any outdoor outing sucks when the air is dirty and disgusting… Learn how to prioritize important issues based on consequences and outcomes not worrying about its cultural image one idiot driving on the beach…bad image but how much environmental damage and adverse human health being impacted vs the 200-300 intentional first fires every day being observed in CM as well as the same bad behavior occurring in all the northern provinces…a public health emergency that the Thai gov refuses to recognize/declare as a serious disaster event…. that’s what I thought -
Thais don’t view it as toilet paper since it is not to them… what I don’t like about cheap tissues is exactly that….provide a quality paper napkin or go reusable and employ more migrants

Foreign woman criticised for urinating on Bangla Road, Phuket
cardinalblue replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Bathrooms? How about trash containers in public spaces? My theory is they purposefully lack them b/c it means more work to Servuce them vs just letting the garbage and litter sit in every cubic meter of public land in thailand…only the smoke of the north surpasses it with every cubic cm of air -

Thai couple accused of physically and sexually abusing girl
cardinalblue replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand News
Where are the Thai street protests? Too much media is spent on falang-kicking foreigners to drum up hysteria when real serious issues like sexual/domestic abuse of both adults and children are swept under the rug. Get your own house in order and understand how to prioritise meaningful and significant issues -
Motorbike-Riding Foreign Couple Fall Into Chiang Mai Road Hole

Another apologist who doesn’t pay attention as to whether it is light outside a uncovered unmarked construction hole shouldn’t be there period…no need to try to find other feeble excuses to blame the drivers -

Northern Thailand braces for severe air pollution crisis
cardinalblue replied to webfact's topic in Chiang Mai News
And stage 2 cancer is better than stage 4 "It's better than in the last month" b/c it's been the worst in the world....AP is absolute it is not relative so comparative analysis is downright idiotic thinking -
Kiwi brothers deny all charges, their parents speak out - March 19
cardinalblue replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
would you say this in an open case in the West? Are you not saying that corruption exists in the Thai police force? Are you not disrespecting the Royal Thai police? -
I have never seen any communication on how the gov is communicating their plan/objective meaning village meetings with village chiefs (months ago) or designated locations requiring village chief attendance. Why doesn't the gov post how they are communicating? And the 2nd communication is what is the gov plan to minimise burning with incentives/penalties? Does anyone have a clue to these two topics? I have seen or heard nothing other than the typical fine those who are caught burning, some no burning signage and the usually we don't have adequate resources to deal with the active fires... The real question is if there is a master plan at all vs the usual reactionary panic response "we are going to get serious" about air pollution because of the bad PR and the overflowing ERs...

The problem is Thai gov doesn’t have an intervention system in place in identifying/rating dangerous/aggressive dogs and have legal ability to seize these dogs to put down/rehab these dogs they prefer to leave it loosey goosey and do nothing constructively to manage dog attacks… so it falls back to all the parties involved to deal with compensation, ownership and dog management I think it reflects poorly on the Thai culture this mai bpen rai attitude as there are no guidelines or regulations or legal system intervention at least try to manage this type of incident

Congratulations you have made it to your current age… my best advice is to read Dr Dean Ornish’s book - Reversing Heart Disease it will answer all your questions and which path you should take given your situation bottom line is it’s all about your condition of your arteries and daily stress management and not about blood test numbers, what meds you are taking or am I doing 60 minutes of cardio a day… good luck
