Get away from the city and the main highways and there are various places to ride - for example, back areas of San Sai and Doi Saket and up towards Mae Kuang Dam are relatively safe for riding. 

Except from that the air polution will kill you if course.

Maybe they could attract them with clean air and low PM2.5? Oh.. sorry I wasn´t thinking stright. Several Hiso´s in the agriculture sector (not living in Thailand) would not like that due to bad business.

Double price for tourists?

The only thing that would help to make the governments to take action in order to stop the burnings, is if the tourists would stop coming to Thailand due to the bad and dangerous air. That would directly hit the economy and could not be ignored. Actually I can't understand that families comes with their children to this health risk. PM2.5 stays in the body and accumulates  also after they have left Thailand.

You missed the part where you publish the serial numbers on the gun and where they came from.

And the motocycles licence number and color.

Maybe Thailand should start address the PM2.5 problem. Not only talk about it but actually DO something.

Why do they always mention the license plates? Why is that important?

Jesus! Again? Using GPS don't means the driver can close their eyes. Why do we only hear this happening in Thailand and not elsewere?

Agreed. They still have foreign/farang tourist police, go to walking street and you can see them,  but they are more like liaison and have very limited powers.

They are not real polices. Only helping the tourist police with language and such.

Nice machine. Finally! Hopefully that is the start.

The most strange thing is that they are inhaling (breathe) the bad air themself. And their parents and their children. How are they thinking? It´s not affecting ME?? Even if they have air purifier at home they are affected. Is it pure stupidity and low IQ?? That is what surprises me most of all.

Thanks Sheryl

I have bought the injectibles for 10 years here, but bored of getting stung every week 

I am getting Nebido every 12 weeks. You can not get that in Thailand? What us the name of the testo you use?

Is it € 10 000:-? I thought it is $ 20 000.:-

From the Thai Embassy in London: Any person who brings or takes an aggregate amount of foreign currency exceeding USD20,000 or its equivalent out of or into Thailand shall declare such amount of foreign currency to a Customs Officer.

The Thai Embassy in Bern states $ 15.000.-

Very confusing...

I noticed in one of the videos he stopped for red light. The Thais did not... Thaiger forgot to mention that or not important? No wonder this is the second worst traffic country in the world.

Send out the guys with the knights ring!

I can look around my village and see many septuagenarians, quite a few octogenarians and even a couple of nonagenarians. I myself am a fit and healthy 77 year old. I long since gave up being concerned about the air that I'm breathing.

 

And BTW, I spent my earlier years in west London, before the Clean Air Act of 1956. I can recall having to hold my hand out in front of me to reduce the risk of bumping into a lamp post or whatever.

 

Most folks around here don't have a clue what bad air is all about.

 

 

Yes London had bad air long time ago. Not PM2.5 but pollutions from cars. I remember when being there 30 years ago my eyes start to hurt after only a short time there. That did not happen in BKK at that time. I don't know about these days as I haven't been in London for a very long time.

Yes, most people don't know so much about this subject. Especially middle and lower class Thais. That is unfortunate. More information is important.

The red zone corresponds to the sugarcane harvesting season of course. That and the fact that the readings are taken within the city would account for the high readings. We live some 20kms to the east of the city in a region where no sugarcane is grown and we're well away from a main road.

 

We have no complains about the air quality here. If I can see the peaks of the Pho Pha Yon hills some 15kms away to our south, I'm happy with the air. And I nearly always can.

You can not see PM2.5. The area around north east is very bad from time to time. I have checked it out several years and decided not to move there. Not having sugarcane arond is of little interest as the pollution comes from far away like Laos, Myanmar north west of Thailand, China etc. The best parts of Thailand is the south for example Phuket, Trang, Songkhla.

I am a pensioner, so I get it free. 

OK, many vaccines we have for free too ad pensioner but just not that one unfortunately.

Just now, still kicking said:

Yes but if you live in Thailand you will have to pay but it is worth it 

That one is very expensive in Sweden ad well. I think 10-11 000 each dose. So still cheaper in Thailand.

I never mentioned I am 76 and don't thank me I just pass on information. Hope you are well.

.

But still, thank you, because I don´t had the information:-). I am 66 so I guess it is a good idea for me to take the vaccine.

Yes, in my country it is recommended over fifty years of age I will get my shot ones I come back from Thailand end of next month. Free for me because I'm on OAP. Have no problems getting a shot, had 4 Covid ones plus my yearly Flu ones no problems at all not even a sore arm.

OK, thank you very much.

Is this Shingrix recommended for younger people as well? Daughter 16?

SAILS AWAY? With a yacht? Another brilliant headline. De
