First all, I think I have the right to be critical, and if some fine souls in this forum disagree, and in addition, tell me to get out of here, than I have the same for them. I did not start this topic with the intention of criticizing the whole Thai culture. If some in this forum saw it in my post, then they should go back to school for basic english class. For about a week, and especially for the 3 days of Loy Kratong, it was a noisy war zone here for 24 hours. I DON"T LIKE IT. and I wonder if the Thai people like it, because as I wrote, it was a Thai woman who told me she won't go out because it's dangerous. This is the gist of my post.

If you understand this argument, you're welcome to give me your humble opinion,. If, as some of you, you don't understand what I wrote and asked, put earplugs to both your ears and elsewhere. Enjoy the weekend, and thanks to those who wrote about their opinion, even if it's different than mine.

I think you are taking the answers too personal, Yabiaomer. Disregard any nasty comments by anyone who says them on any topic. That is their problem, not yours. You are entitled to your opinion just as others are entitled to theirs. There are always more than one way to look at any subject.

Could be Rene123. I was not pissed off by those who have a different opinion, I welcome any opinion. And Maybe I'd also like to point to the forum and it's owners that they let too many empty brain members to take part in the discussions. I wonder if there is a way to block them like in FB, or Goole+ (from my side)?

it was a noisy war zone here for 24 hours.

24 hours? I live out in the sticks, it's all over by 9 pm, starting only after sunset. I imagine it goes on later in the city, but really, 24 hours?

yep, 24 hours ...

So, Loy Kratong is over and I'm not impressed.

For 3 days and 3 nights It felt like CM is a war zone. Not to mention the week

before.

A local friend, a woman, when asked how did she celebrate LK told me "I closed

the windows, put earplugs and went to sleep". So, I said, you did not go out? and she said

"No, Thai people know it's dangerous".

So, I'm asking you: Who enjoys Loy Kratong?

and as exit question: Don't Thai people care about their children? They don't care

that for 3 nights their children won't be able to sleep?

Help me, I'm confused.

I would like to exchange English/French with a Thai speaker.

Right now I'm taking a Thai class. I'm a beginner.

count me in ...

Thanks guys for your info.

Indeed my question was about converting a tourist visa into Retirement, here in Chiang Mai.

As I understand from your posts no medical certificate is needed.

I plan to apply in 2-3 weeks. Will keep you posted.

Guys,

2 questions about the medical certificate for Retirement visa:

1. Where can I get it here in Chiang Mai? Can you recommend a doctor/clinic or hospital.

2. What specifically should be the wording and content of the certificate?

I have the rest of the necessary conditions for the Retirement visa, just don't know

what and where to do about the medical certificate.

I'm a newbie in Chiang Mai, hope to enjoy it.

Thanks, Yossi
