Thai boy wins 2022 FIA Karting World Championship in Italy
nahkit replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
TONY kart racing team profile says he was born in Spain. -
I wasn't so lucky. Went to Specsavers in the UK 3 months ago, thought I was going to get a free eye test as I'm over 60 but I was told I had to pay because I wasn't currently registered with a UK doctor. Overall, still pleased with their service, I got two pairs for less than the cost I had been paying for one pair here.

Tomato flu not yet in Thailand, but being monitored
nahkit replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
"The newest of these is called “tomato flu,” and has affected over 100 children in India, according to a recent correspondence in The LancetTrusted Source." The population of India as of 2020 was 1.38 billion! "The authors report that tomato flu, likely a viral disease, was first identified in the Kollam district of Kerala, India on May 6, 2022." So in a period of 3 months plus, that works out at just over 1 a day. "According to The Lancet, the disease is considered non-life-threatening and resolves on its own in time." Thailand "does not regard the disease as a matter of domestic concern." What a complete non-story. -
That is absolutely staggering.

Paying to see the rock stars in Thailand could be risky

I paid £100 to watch the Eagles last month and 2 weeks before that I paid £110 to watch the Rolling Stones. I'd hardly call that "crazy money". -
Kindergarten in "Khai Palo drama" gets clean bill of lunchtime health
nahkit replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Looking at the photo, the kids don't seem to know what to do with it. Perhaps they've never had that amount of food on their school dinner plates before. -
Duty requested by DHL/Customs for hearing aid repair under warranty.
nahkit replied to Searat7's topic in General Topics
I've had Thai Royal Mail charge me tax on individual items in a box plus the weight of the entire goods so effectively I was being taxed twice on those items. The tax on the individual items was based on "estimated" values - I challenged the valuations and provided the actual values by producing the original receipts. I also pointed out that the bulk of the weight of the box was made up of personal documents which should not attract any import duty. Result? Pay up or you don't get the box. They can do whatever they want, up to you if you want the goods or not. -
Is the Thai government prepared for a major oil spill?
nahkit replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
First thing they would need to do is form a committee, come up with a catchy name and then print some t-shirts and baseball caps (plus jackets for the VIPs) for the photo op. If they really want to push the boat out (no pun intended) they could also write a song. -
Proposal to waive visa fees for foreign tourists to Thailand

Brought to you by the same people who 6 months ago wanted to introduce a 500 baht arrival tax. -
Renovated Rajamangala Stadium Unveiled for Man Utd-Liverpool Match
nahkit replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
ThaiTicket Major are still showing seats available which is strange considering the organisers were saying it was a sellout within days of the tickets going on sale. -
Looks more like a woman that's getting her head smashed into the ground by another woman.

CCTV captures tragic death of college freshman outside gas station in Buriram
nahkit replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
I agree with you but the fact is that motorcyclists in Thailand are told to ride as close to the white line as possible. Time they revised the highway code and got them riding in the centre of the lane. -
