  1. In those more than 25 years of staying here, I have now had the experience that it has all become hand-me-down prices, time after time you can and should negotiate for a lower price! And yes, that started with the tsunami That should not be possible. In addition, I have gained the experience that the expertise among those doctors from time to time leaves much to be desired, and judging from the reactions here, I am not alone in that.
  2. Is the registration number masked lest people pick the wrong lottery number?
  3. I think that hypocritical oath only applies to doctors working in private hospitals, as opposed to doctors working for the government, this is particularly applicable to Thailand, having gained more than 25 years of experience. Without naming names, there is one hospital in particular that managed to double them prices sinds the tsunami.
  4. Apparently, he thinks it is normal and continues to defend it, mafioso mentality.
  5. It seems that with your comment you are still going to defend that scum which all of them, being hyenas, fly at a man. Is that the Italian mentality?
  6. It may well be, if it concerns yourself you will judge differently. Searching for your roots can be very intense and largely define your life.
  7. It just proves again that Taksin has his cronies in all the important places, but not only in Thailand. Corruption is rampant in many countries around the world.
  8. Ha, ha, last month I was in the , what you call ‘the West’ and particularly in the Netherlands, and it was precisely there that I was surprised that there was so much freight traffic, and yes, because of a major port in that country, there is extra heavy road freight traffic there, with lots of foreign license plates from all over europe, despite there being good freight connections (the Betuwe line) by train, so it is not all as you wish.
  9. Sorry, I think that's a silly comment, you'll just have invested in that kind of big truck, it all has to be invested through loans, there could well be 15-year loans against that, and then taking it to the scrap yards? Think before you comment.
  10. Again? Every time I see that the employee can get a little extra, you get the same objections. I think people here have had to settle for 300Thb/day for 15 years, and the same objections every time.
  11. It is the same with many other things, take money for example, it has to be spent immediately, saving for later? How do you come up with that.
  12. I miss a lathe, surely that is the least you need to convert guns. Does anyone have another one for sale? ;-))
  13. That reminds me of a few years ago in the Netherlands, due to a shortage of money, the Dutch government was asked to call soldiers in training instead of bullets, loud pang, pang. True story.
  14. Restaurants of course. But as far as I know, also owned by King Power.
  15. Recently I was at Suvarnabhumi, waiting for my flight I wanted to have a glass of wine....400 Thb for a glass.
  16. They all rent their location indirectly from the Thai government, after all they own the airports, and not just in LOS, let's face it, all over the world is so-called “Duty Free” scams.
  17. It is not only income tax that makes the Netherlands unaffordable but also many extra taxes, excise taxes they call it, on important things like energy, more than 50% tax, VAT 21%, the people there are being sucked completely dry.
  18. but virtually unaffordable by now. one of the reason to flee that country, people there are drowning in rules and laws. As for infrastructure there are fierce cuts, roads that are needed are not being made, bridges that need maintenance that too is being postponed.
