German tourist’s night out in Pattaya turns into nightmare

Only if their is law or governance of some sort that requires the business to have a working CCTV system -
I think any insurance company when you talking about medical repatriation is complex to deal with....insurance companies generally are not always the most proactive in wanting to oblige by the terms of the policy.. hope the guy recovers as best he can and full marks for having the insurance in place for his trip

Tired of Warfarin side effects and food no goes!
monty1412 replied to NewGuy's topic in Health and Medicine
OK similar circumstances .... fact that you are on Warfarin indicates its not a heart valve problem causing the AFIB.. perhaps consider ablation... worked for me ... I was on Xarelto as well ( never Warfarin) and now graduated to 80mg Aspirin per day . generics are fine ....Xarelto bought here in TH is fine , its made under license from Bayer AG. Xarelto from India I dont know about . Xarelto really really works.. had a small shaving cut when I was on it and blood spurted about 1 foot to the mirror and took hours to stop bleeding .....From what you have stated re Warfarin I would seriously talk to Dr about ablation to quell the electrical activity ( no side effects for me) or just get on the Xarelto.... one word of warning however my heart specialist was horrified I was motorbike riding while on Xarelto. said one minor arterial wound and you would bleed out so if you part time passion is juggling chain saws you might want to consider that -

Keep on with the NAC ( 600mg/day) but add Glycine.. this helps your body make glutathione which is the king/ queen of antioxidants . I also use Fistein ( natural extract from fruit) to help clear congestion... 200mg at night... like some of the others here I suffer from frequent lung infections and just use Augmentin when that happens . The Fisetin really clears up the airways .... google it and read up about it... easy to get in TH as well

wow ..... not a word of praise for the Pattaya police for doing their job and taking what obviously is a threat off the streets .... yes I admit they make the Keystone cops look like pro's most of the time but occasionally they do step up to the mark . Nicely done Pattaya RTP.... now lets make sure this non quality tourist gets processed and sent home with a never to come back mark against him......

Find this elderly foreigner who stole a 150 baht bottle of rum from granny

Sorry that they have to endure this theft but take temptation out of it and just put a cheap padlock on the doors so they cant easily be opened . -
Thai Pass quandary
monty1412 replied to Will B Good's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
get a thai person to call contact number here https://www.tatnews.org/ and ask what can be done... make sure the Thai person you get to do this understands what you are asking however .... I would personally make the application and see if you can get it approved as long as your cancellation period for the hotel allows -
Thai Alternative/Brand for Lysine Ointment? (Cold Sores)
monty1412 replied to aldriglikvid's topic in Health and Medicine
you may be better going for acyclovir cream or tablets.. the brand you can buy in Thailand is Vilerm... https://www.medicines.org.uk/emc/product/4335/smpc#gref You can buy Lysine at any health store and most chemists but the acyclovir goes to the root of the problem regardless of your arginine to lysine ratio..... -
Tourism Ministry Launches ‘Thailand Trusted Destination’ Campaign

i worry about this pig collapsing under the weight of all the continual lipstick layers.... window dressing stuff like this means nought to a visitor when his first interaction in Thailand is normally a rip off tax at the airport... -
Expert: Omicron to Be Globally Dominant in 1-2 Months
monty1412 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The time has come to open the borders, get life back on track and accept whatever collateral damage happens... its going to happen anyway so why not maximise herd immunity ASAP.....faster we peak the faster the decline will be ..... fighting a long drawn out containment policy will do nothing other than providing a longer time period which may have new variant implications ...... 7 days quarantine for tourists aint going to work.. sandbox if you want to but sooner we treat Omicron like the flu the sooner we will get on top of it..... trying to delay the inevitable may have unfortunate ramifications that are far more serious than what we have now -
DPM Anutin: Thailand is able to handle Omicron variant
monty1412 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
One thing that is proved by this latest diatribe from him and also doubly proved by frequent statements of the TAT is that " empty vessels DO make the most noise"... its so nice that we can at least have concrete proof on one point -
yeah I know, Im thinking about that as well on a number of fronts.. Kenya at present has minuscule new infection rates less than 80 people per day .. Cambodia claims it is >80% vaccinated but most of that is Sinopharm and started seeing reports / discussions that Sinopharm is not effective towards Omicron..... thinking along worst case scenario.... Omicron goes ballistic everywhere ,TH pulls shutters down again .......where would I rather be living for maybe a few months and medical health care standards...... 14 days strict quarantine in TH doesnt look that bad if you add all the ifs buts and maybe's together...... will wait until 23rd Dec and see if TH modifies any of its conditions .....if they said OK 7 days Q from low risk African nations i would be there like a flash
