Hi..Can a foreigner call for an ambulance in Chiang Mai…??
crazykopite replied to mikey88's topic in Chiang Mai
In one word yes however you will most likely be billed I had to do it for a friend last year who sadly passed away but they wouldn’t release his body until the hospital bills were paid in full -
Firstly condolences recently a friend of mine passed the cost of having his remains returned to the U.K. from Thailand was mind blowing for a start the casket had to be zinc lined . I suggest you have your paps cremated here in Thailand and the ashes sent to the USA for a memorial service it’s still an expense but a lot cheaper check with the US Embassy for details for the U.K. we had to provide the deceased passport , death certificate and cremation certificate then find a company to arrange collection and transportation. I’ve already made my instructions known cremation in the Temple followed by ashes/ bones into the sea in front of my villa cost no more than 25,000 baht

Canadian man and Thai woman murdered in Khon Kaen
crazykopite replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
It’s only 2023 not 2024 RIP to the deceased this is a big problem in Thailand with Thai men being very violent when they have consumed alcohol no doubt the cheap Thai whiskey is to be blamed for his actions problem is in 5 years time the murderer will be released from prison as taking a life is meaningless in Thailand- 127 replies

Bank transfer after 1st Jan or now?
crazykopite replied to kwak250's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I would do it before the 1st January best way to open a Wise account best rates around and not expensive to do some Thai banks only allow a certain amount to be transferred over to them I’m with Kasikorn at the moment they have no limit the rates fluctuate several times a day yesterday I got 44,500.000 for a £1,000 today it’s 44.117.00 for a 1000 by the way the U.K. has a tax agreement with Thailand so if your on pension like me you should not be taxed I pay U.K. tax at source the only risk you have is that the way Thailand is at the moment next year you could get a much better rate to the £ but that’s a gamble you take . I have brought in enough money to live on for 4 months by then this tax farce should be sorted out it’s not us there after it’s the mega rich Thais who have used the loophole for years -

Illegal Bangkok Bar Raided, 100-Plus Drug Users Found
crazykopite replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
How can one tell the difference between weed and other drugs as I don’t consume any myself I would of thought the pee test would not be able to tell the difference so all these drug users could admit to taken weed which is no longer a criminal offence ! Am I correct in my assumption -
