  1. Reminds me of the guys crawling on their stomachs pushing a bowl but the soles of their feet are black with dirt, the man near Central World in Bangkok with no arms and a cup in his mouth (his arms well concealed) and the little girl who years ago was dropped off at different BTS stations who sat there beating a drum. I'm told she tool in more than 30,000/month. The last time I saw her she hadn't been cared for. I feel bad for them but don't give. I've read where children were dismembered on purpose to be beggars. I also saw Slumdog Millionaire. Very sad movie. I wish I had not.

  2. Taking the ID care protects both you, your neighbors and the guest.

     

    My condo takes the ID card unless the guests are with me and sometimes they take it then unless they know they are a frequent visitor.

     

    It is only a minor inconvenience and I think it is a good thing.

     

    Most hotels and good condominiums have this practice.

  3. Just North of Lumpini Would be in the area between Ratchadamri and Withayu (Wireless) Roads.

     

    You might look at Royal Place 1 and 2 on Soi Mahatlek Luang 1 and Soi 2 or find something closer to PhloenChit. They are not far to the North of Lumphini off of Ratchadamri.

     

    You could live in the Sala Daeng (Silom Road) area and have a nice walk through the park going to work. There are some condos in the area of Sathorn Road and Rama IV on the South Side of the park. Wireless Road becomes Sathorn Road on South side of Rama IV and Rachadamri will be Silom Road on the South side of Rama IV. Rama IV is on the South Side of Lumphini Park. Lumphini is bordered on the West Side by Ratchadamri and on the East side by Wireless Road. There is bus service down both Silom/Rachadamri and Sathorn/Wireless. The closest Sky Trains would be at Saladang on the South of Lumphini and Chidlom and PhloenChit a long walk on the North.

     

    I would opt for living close to work and walking if possible. Driving in Bangkok is totally not recommended. Public transport (Skytrain, Underground MRT, busses) is crowded during rush hours and many other times.

     

    Good luck.

  4. I had it happen one time by a ladyboy on the bus. I didn't make a scene, just removed his (her) hand. I have a friend with hands the size of boxing gloves. He is about 6'5" and well over 200#. He backhanded one and left him very bloody. Needless to say he and his friend quickly got off the bus. I never carry a wallet and put money in different pockets.

  5. The medication is called Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate. The pill is blue. The cost is 655 for a 30 day supply.

     

    Required testing for HIV and Liver function before receiving the medication is 870.
