Pattaya: Work to beautify Jomtien by removing excess cables
thailand49 replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
If it is anything like the Darkside, got to laugh they removed dead wires same as you see in the photos of this story but before they leave the companies leave they put up new wires rolled up as if the poles are there for their storage. There are like 5 companies in Pattaya providing service but after all the dead wires are removed there seem to still be a hundred left????? -
Leading Thai doctors calling for mask mandate to be reinstated
thailand49 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I just follow the rules, want me to wear mask I wear mask! I was bother when they said wear one during sex so I tried it. It was like Halloween made the event more exciting???? Then mask became cheap like online buying I got addicted I started to buy out of habit colors, logos, so many, to make sure I had mask everywhere glove box, steering wheel, bike, I wear one throw it away no garbage can I just toss it on the road hoping due to crushing economy some poor sole can use it. One night I went out felt what I though was my fat wallet back pocket when they lifted the restrictions on night clubs. I went out to celebrate order drinks, rang the bell, celebrated like a drunker sailor when time to leave reach to my back pocket it was a backup bag of mask! Not a good ending????? -
This guy foreigner even Thai better go to temple and pray hard that this backward thinking, prejudice, racist never ever get close to being PM for everyones sake! The only cheap medical that is being provided to draw tourist are inexpensive ten pages physical examines nicely prepared to impress but look deep into these report many categories are redundant results. Once you are here they try to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge of other test???? Easy stuff cookie cutter procedure but if you are really sick call it a day get a 9M, and call it a day.???? It is like being Minister of Health you not need to be qualified.

These leaders do come up with some catchy titles but this isn't going to get them here knocking down doors what will be a start is stop all the backward or stupid thinking for example all your racism, prejudice towards others including your own people, the duel pricing, then the corruption by police on particular in which visitor have most contact. As a developing country leaders need first and foremost start thinking and acting like one. ???? It isn't Thailand consider cheap it is the corruption and greed of the government leaders which fuel all these so call ideas.

I think I consider myself to have full mental capacity? I think I'm a nice guy and I don't drink I'm under a lot of stress living here in Thailand, I like to take your brother hang him by his balls and strip the skin slowly off his body pour honey on his body and let those nasty Thai black ants have a feast. Then I like to take the sister to Nana and see I can work her as a freelancer. When done I like to get to the rest of the family just because I'm under a lot of stress just thinking it I'm feeling s bit better already.????

You got it wrong! Years ago I asked the owner told me " protect my shop people no understand how to park " ???? Reason restaurants, clubs, malls have attendants blowing whistle to guide you. ????

You are getting lucky early be THANKFUL, she is so stupid by showing her cards early or as they say true colors. Is the Condo in your name hopefully it is she must be real stupid and greedy to burn it if in her name! What I would do is since you are already sending her 30,000 go ahead with the 40, to keep her quiet then but get your butt on a airplane without her knowing. Get a lawyer and have her legally removed and have them file a restraining order at the police station nearest to you change the lock. If She doesn't go then plan B, hope your Condo is high enough push her off the balcony. She did you a huge favor your luck might be changing? If you are superstitious buy a new bed and set of new sheets. We all screw up pay our dues you don't need to know about culture it is just greed pure and simple. If she wants culture tell her try to find man in her class that would even have or consider 30 a month!

Think things out? That is the major reason they never should have opened the can of worms. History: can't solve traffic problems, can't control sales of alcohol to minors. Years ago made a law can't sell 300M from a school which even themselves don't understand nor able to enforce, hanging wires everywhere even after clean was done, roads full of holes right after they were just fixed, the see saw decisions the last 2 plus years with Covid, the list is so long the leaders can't figure left from right worry there are many reasons the youth and everyone else need to worry! Another great decision by leaders who claim they care but continue to step on the necks of their population so they can control. Land of Smiles just get a Weed instead of a flower when you visit have a good smoke waiting for a stone taxis while they hit you with duel pricing and scams so when one bends over it be like getting a colon cleanse before Dr. Oh give you your digital checkup. ????

I basically getting something off my chest? No matter where in the world I'm sure you meet these types all the time! I hope the individual I bump in today at the Travel agency hopefully when he unload that log in his butt takes the time to find this site maybe he will find some answer he is looking for before going off for nothing and try to listen instead of interrupting. Today, I was in a travel agency to make sure all my arrangements were in order while waiting the guy in front of me ask the travel agent about health insurance? Tells you a lot one goes into a travel agency to ask and purchase health insurance? Type of guy who wants answers when you try to provide it tells you are wrong, I know that, that isn't what I've been told but remember now this guys is seeking answers? Being the guy I am like majority of you here whether you have all the answers or not you want to help? So when he got up I said what is your questions regarding health insurance coverage in Thailand? He said the company he was interested was not a Thai company but C, which is already advertising on this forum want to buy from them. So I started to provide some information as to how coverage is usually sold, interrupted I know that but I want to buy from C, I continue guy informs me he comes and goes so I said have you thought about Travel insurance? interrupts I know all about Travel insurance B.S. etc.. said he has no problem buying money no issue for a year again he wants to buy from C. So I started to let him know even if you buy from C. coverage for Thailand usually sold in this manner. Interrupts you don't understand now the guy is starting to get frustrated the white guys starts to turn a bit pink that set me off with my personality because I make it a point in life to poke the bear live dangerous on edge as if it is my last day. Then we get into how much coverage, now I figure this guy is an American looks fit in his early 60's as to the type of coverage and how much that many expats buy around 1M baht and that usually these days with duel pricing and such doesn't go too far the guys goes off interrupts and say B.S. not true, never heard such a thing from what I've been told you are the first guy who has ever come up with this information. I refer him to Asean this particular section even told him a C agent would be glad to contact you. Interrupt he said I know of the website never read anything to confirm what you are saying then ask me to spell the website for him. Now everyone knows when someone tells you they know then ask you to spell it out the kind of guy I sadly try to help. Then he jumps in why the hell do I need that much coverage I explain if you got into an accident and they took you to this hospital you be lucky a million will cover it? Now here is a guy who told me earlier money is no object he can afford the hospital cost even if he didn't have insurance if something happened. He said never heard of such a thing! then why are foreigner entering the country a few months back that had to buy insurance then got Covid force into hospital bills were only mentioned 200,000-400,000 baht so how the hell do you come up with such a coverage like 1M, and I haven't even got into the price company C would charge him for that policy. I explain that situation isn't the same as the insurance you want to buy to stay here for a year. As this conversation was ongoing I was seated relaxed not excited he started quickly off like a monkey in heat after a few minutes he is like King Kong? I was thinking I hope he gets physical because I needed to open a can of whip ass on someone for a long time and then I have no problem getting a good butt whipping myself sets me straight keeps me going like a bunny rabbit living in Thailand. I again explain if you don't believe me go to the website I noted Asean, in the Medical category read and pose you question or questions. He pull up some website show it to me and said is this it, it wasn't he must have been unable to put in the spelling correctly when I said no that was the final straw I guess and storm out. Now I've seen in my 15 plus years guys living here or visiting go off over little stuff because they couldn't get their point across to a Thai. Food not packed right, meal not cook right, change is wrong, I don't know how guys live this long is it genes because one would wonder they would have a stroke long ago. Then I know a few who act this way because they been smoking the weed for decades I truly think the weed has something to do with it their personality changes? God help us all if there is one because once more Thais start to smoke the stuff we are in a world of hurt if not already????? I once travel with a guy he tagged along with my cousin so I said nothing but everyone told me he is a different bird. For a number of years he would go off over nothing once he order a meal and it came out wrong instead of saying something he took the plate and pour the meal all over the table. The owner son came up ask him politely why? in the end my friend got a good ass whipping the little martial art he knew was of no use he wasn't Bruce Lee. When it was over he ask me why I didn't help I said I did he said all you did was sit there. Answer #1 you needed that ass whipping for a long time by letting him I hope it help you change. Answer number #2, I could have let him beat your ass until they carry you out in a stretcher but I told him to stop enough. Today, it was just one of those days you try to help instead you meet a nut job!???? When he rushed out the lady in the agency said Thanks better you than me!????

Thanks for setting me straight now it becomes a bit clearer It brought back what I was told. When I had a crown done it was long ago, I remember the crown was done well because my older brother was a Master Dental Technician himself when the crown was done he pop it in perfect no grinding which is an indication of their experience. I also know the cost of making a crown like porcelain with ceramic gold and what a dentist markup. My brother use to day " a Dentist with a license to steal " said it enough that he oldest son who use to help him at his lab when young because a Dentist then into a Orthodontist $$$$ I can't remember exactly the cost for the crown 10,000 baht but after Five years under that crown I developed a real tooth ache went back it was determined root canal I thought the crown would be remove but instead they drill into the crown and did the work and filled it back up. Prior to the work I was leaving for s trip to the States I was worry needed to cancel they inserted into the tooth some time release pain killing device when done painless as if nothing was wrong told good for a year when you return in a few weeks we will finish the job when they did cost 20,000 baht that was 5 years ago.

Major Thai brewer announces increase in beer prices
thailand49 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Leo, I remember a box of 12.large bottle 560 baht, Not really a drinker guess one got to acquire the taste? I see Thais drinking Da new beer called My beer produced by Chang, it was 588 a box large bottles. Add to the fluid I do like a cold beer with Ice Hawaiian style. -
This the the placed I've used in the past 10 years, German? From what I understand the German guy might be a Dentist or Lab Tech as we called them in U. S. But he does the consultant using Thai staff he has he own lab onsite and had done crowns in 2 days. Bit expensive from talking prices with other expat but I was happy with the work.

Yes! If I get it right " but if personal decision is the reason to wear why doesn't it work both ways personal choice is not only one doesn't want to wear a mask it is also a personal choice of someone who wants to wear it? I've not said an individual must isolate themselves that comes from you not me and I've certainly not said others to do the same! My post merely suggest living with it which means it hasn't gone away completely? Right? so if it is your choice not to knock yourself out like everything take responsibility if it doesn't go right and if nothing happens I'm happy for you and everyone who doesn't want to wear one. But give others the same right to choice! But until it is gone to a point I feel it is safe I will continue to do what has protected me and my Thai family for two plus years wear a mask whenever needed, use alcohol, and wash my hands whenever possible to not get infected and go on with my daily life which hasn't even come close to isolating myself. Personally, aside from wearing my mask I've not changed any of my habits since Covid hit and that is how I've been living with it!

We talk about common sense, critical thinking, got to live with it? Yet so many due to their own personal reasons have took it on themselves to think the virus is gone. Until it is living with it to me mean limit yourself to exposure. When and where to wear is step one plus I don't think the CCSA can't help but to scare everyone for control will they be relevant after it is over?

This government like many don't really care the headlines of this story should provide plenty of evidences! " REVENUE 30% " end of story! ???????? money talks and is above all things versus people concerns. Oh don't forget the common line used by leaders JOBS! Legalizing weed should give everyone a clue as to how much money can be at state for the government leaders just look at how much COW <deleted> has been sold since?

Let be fair???? We don't want to come across as bashing but they been told to get out and make all the tourist feel all fuzzy and loved. I just a few months back I took my granddaughter regularly to the further end of Jomtien Soi 19 beyond to play. I set up under a shady tree area could watch her since the water was just a few feet away now trees are gone it is like 1 km away from road. These food vendors are part of the landscape is how many survive and earn a living you would think Thai official would recognize that and do a better job of planning based on the south call improvement instead of all the sand there is more than enough room to have extended the sidewalk path further out so vendors could set up and not block the narrow bench road and of course get some damn garbage bins one. Now due to all the negatives I take them all down the road to Bang Saray where there is plenty of shade where it is people friendly.

Read the story again they don't basically pull people from department stores, offices to make a show of force. ???? They widen the beach brought in tons of new sand but it is actually worse in my opinion no one uses it, the water now is too far from the road no where to sit no shade it was better before.
