Air Pollution Crisis Escalates with Hotspots Surge
sidjameson replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
https://aqicn.org/city/thailand/pang-ma-pha-hospital/ It's the 2.5 that's killing you. Doesn't look that good to me. 8 months of the year is ok. But 4 months of the year you're a 24/7 smoker. -

Smart post. But a very simple question. If there was a law that you had to smoke 20 cigarette a day to stay in Thailand would you stay? I fear the situation is actually worse than that. -

If you put Thailand air in a tank and tried to bribe people in a normal environment to breath it, most would not consider it at any cost.. Yes, I left for 3 months last week. -

Actually it's not. That's a great example of how misleading the mainstream news is. -
What long term visa is available? I wasn't aware of any.

Exactly. Guys claiming they are playing the stock market and within 10 seconds it's obvious they are just invested in the market,no way beating it. -

Keep it simple. How much does his life cost in home country? Use same budget here and you'll get a much higher standard of living, except for the richest few or the poorest few. Reduce home budget by a 1/3 for same lifestyle as home in a Thai style or increase by a 1/3 and the retiree would feel they were relatively balling it. -

So you mean if you don't pay they would stay for free? -
What year was that? I'm literally sat with my girl now in the ministry of education canteen where she works and all her colleagues are exceptionally friendly to us. I remember when girls in every Asian country feared being seen as a ho just for walking with a foreigner, but in most places those days are long gone.

Of course an impossible task for most but it's always been my hope to not die with unspent wealth. Though knowing when to draw down and by how much is proving to be a very tricky question.

Why not find a better country for you? -
Agreed. But he's in Canada at winter time. That's why I suggested the supplement.

In the UK I can afford to live well in a provincial town. Same amount let's me live well in bkk. Is that expat, refugee or migraint? These labels crumble away on close analysis.

Take a vitamin D pill. More effective.

Nice data. Where did you find it? And where's the best places, air quality wise?

Young people looking for a partner like bkk. Older people liking nightlife and or culture like bkk. People earning money like bkk. Most others prefer somewhere else.
