Not much social distancing

It's weaker. I got it 1 hour ago. Also, I'm not a foreigner.

Thonburi Health Group. They confirmed to me too that I will get in in Oct.

And will be forgotten just as fast.

I'm looking for a good secondary school in that area. Any recommendations/prices? Ideally an international standard school but a bilingual/EP would do.

Maybe not to you ????

What do you mean? There are not many international students here. I pay 50k a term for one of my daughters. On top of that 50k for a condo, and maybe 30k for pocket money/food. 130k a term. This is Assumption Uni

Wait until your kids grow up and you are buying Nike for uni, and paying 8500 a month for condos that they are not living in.

In a hotel?

Well I went today but they had run out of vaccine, told me to go tomorrow, early.

I am quite optimistic about getting Moderna in Oct.

One more thing, can I travel to the UK if I've had this/these jabs?

I can get Sinovac today, followed by AstraZ. If I take it, is it still safe to get the Moderna, which I've paid half, in October?

What makes you think they do nothing?

Now that is a ridiculous law!

If they used large white crosses, foreigners might think a train is coming.

Also safe mansions in Laos, which are owned by senior government officials.

Recently, I turned down a job offer from an Assistant Commissioner in the RTP. No senior policeman gets there by being an honest, upstanding citizen. As a friend said about the guy, he's actually a nice cop - he gets other people do do the 'whacking'. I use this word, as the similarities to the mob are uncanny. Another reason was that the job offered no money; the payment was to be in 'protection'. I think most foreigners don't know the half of what goes on in the force, and actually I have often heard them boasting about some member of the extended family being a copper.

Not sure I agree here, just because a zebra crossing means stop in the UK, doesn't mean it has to mean the same here. I'd rather traffic lights stayed the same here, which are different from the UK - you can turn left at a red. Laws should be as the people want, and here we want zebra crossing to be as they are, stop or not stop, we like freedom!

I can't wait to retire!

Thanks a lot, lots of food for thought there. I thought it might be a simple case of waiting 7 years, but not.

I just subscribed to Disney Plus, what a waste of money.

He obviously didn't know about them. Anyone who's been here any length of time knows that this is what is expected of police. The newcomer expats still seem to think that having a relative in the police somehow makes them higher in status, as they don't understand how the police here are percieved/feared.

Does anyone have any thoughts about renting or buying a house? I am a Naturalized Thai, so no issue with land ownership. My dilemma is whether to sell my crypto assets or not. At the moment, I am getting enough staking rewards(interest) to be able to rent a house that I could afford to buy if I sold everything. For example, a 15 million baht house, which is renting for 50k a month. I, and most others, expect the BTC price(now $49k) to rise to $110-200k by the end of the year, then drop to $40k for another couple of years. I can get about 6% for staking(lending) my BTC and up to 19% for other crypto assets. So the question is, buy or rent(using the interest on assets).
