Paetongtarn Shinawatra and the history of pregnant prime ministers
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It should be mandatory that all PM candidates contest a seat and run for government. As to her having a baby, maybe it is part of the Biden/Fetterman playbook from the U.S>. Have a medical excuse why you can not be out in public and get sympathy. No matter what, it is not as if she is the one that will be raising the child I am sure that nannies and other family members are already set to do so. -
Seems to be happening a lot second time this year LOL Might want to consider a new service provider

How would a possibly spoiled Thai/Indian/American know what sadistic sex is and anything about it. I doth think this young person watches too much of the wrong porn on pornhu*. I can verify though, that many young Thai men seem to think that it is ok to hurt their partners. The challenge is that most Thai men have a low understanding of how to treat a lady/ladyboy. They seem to think that the sex is all about them and what they want.

Not saying Canada is doing any better, but have the U.K. media gone for crop. All you seem to read is I got a boo boo in Thailand and can't pay for the band-aid. I am a real-life blow up doll Megan and Harry through a temper tantrum I am a member of the no-bra club. I am not a footie fan but would rather see articles about Player x getting a head ache or politics rather than this <deleted>. Has China finally with tik tok killed the last remaining brain cells that. Do we really need this stuff in ASEANNOW

Thai health officials worried about growing number of fat kids
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Yes but it is the amount of sugar they have in their diet. The fatty junk food that you talk about is mostly made up of sugars and other <deleted>. I came here with my wife at the time in the late 90's she was sllightly over weight and free size was tight. If you went into the stores there were no clothes here that she could buy as there were very few large Thai ladies. Also then people played football and were outside. Then came the tech revolution and the internet. the more the internet evolves and the gaming world evolves the fewer kids that are doing anything but playing on their phones. The other thing that puzzles the F out of me is Thai hospitals. Supposedly they are there to help people get healthy but has anyone ever looked at the shops that are there selling food. As a type 2 I have to go in for fasting blood work. In order to get anything to eat after I have the choice of starbucks or a snack shop that sells nothing but sugary foods. The higher end is not any better take a walk inside BNH and see the food that you can buy. there is nothing that is low-fat low sugar it is all high fat high cholesterol. same with schools -
The biggest joke of these4 elections so far is the promises. Note that PT is going to eradicate Buriram of all drugs. increase the wages and guarantee all BA grads 25k a month Anutin is going to build monorails in Pathum Thani (would love to know where he is going to do that with the BTS lines already here. Right now there is good affordable transport with buses. Monorails are not cheap. both thought have the caveat if we sweep or get 300 seats When in Thailand has any party gotten that many seats without having minor parties join them?

You say your job is ging to be in Rangsit but yet you want to live outside Rangsit. If you are working in Rangsit and live along the line where you state it is going to be expensive for transport. There are some nice condos houses and such in the Rangsit area. My suggestion would be to look at different spots online that are close to where you are going to work and then decide from there. At this time there are 2 BTS lines that run to Rangsit nd Khu KOK. The line you want will depend greatly on where you are working. Are you going ot be a teacher if so which school and I can tellyou that some of the schools can be very helpful.

This is a nice area and is currently upgrading. If you are looking then this is an area that should be reasonable. There are stores near by like Big C so shopping is ok and lots of thai restaurants. The main question though is where are you going to be working? As of extra cost right now there s no real difference in price between BTS Khu Khok and Chatuchak to almost anywhere the big difference is about an hour commute If you are going to be working in the old part of town close to the river then there are also a lot of nice places here and cheap accommodations in Wong wian.

Have you ever gone more than 48 hours without sleep?
kingstonkid replied to Tayida's topic in Health and Medicine
Done it a couple of times. The issue is when you go to sleep go to sleep with no interruptions. No loud music no one asking questions. Did 72 hours once and ended up sleep walking in the bush. Did a 48 in Pakistan for vip visit was useless for 4 days. -
The average salary for public schools: $1,000-$1,200 More than I thought they were LAST i HEARD THEY WERE UNDER PAID. The problem though with that number is the average part. Would like to see that number if you take the big cities out of he picture. Also a lot of the teachers that are still teaching were teaching when people were still using pencils and paper. LOL

???? I used to get <deleted> then realized that it is lack of comfort talking English. Try walking through the mall and watch them approach your gf. Mine has realized that when she is with me they leave her alone ???? Is there anything you can do about it. I just give her the money to pay then hold out my hand to her for change.

This is from a UK provider website notice the wording up to Up to £10 million for emergency medical expenses outside the UK: Emergency medical treatment Dental treatment for emergency pain relief Emergency medical repatriation to the UK The challenge is what is covered and how much. I am sure they do not have the top plan I am also sure that UK insurers and Travel agents are getting tired of these articles showing up in the newspaper.

That is the biggest issue, and a lot of tourists do not understand it. I use BNH and while my VAC covers most of my treatment, is does not fully cover meds as they only reimburse Ontario rates. My medical coverage, not VAC covered, is an issue as there are cost limitations as well as things they will not cover. Other nurse services are one of them In Canada there is no such charge, so they do not reimburse it even though we all know that the charge is included in the doctor's actual fee. Question 1 Pardon my ignorance BUT is med evac flights covered in these plans and if so is there not usually a max amount. Question 2 Would it not be cheaper if covered to get the surgery done here instead of trying to fly back and then get the UK Government to pay.

Was decent before the sky train lol. 5k a month for a 3 bdrm garden home. Quiet no loud noise; No pollution and friendly Thais

Is this not also the area where the Chinese have caused the police so much trouble and been replaced? With all the stuff that is happening, anyone in BKK that opens a bar now and flouts the law is plain stupid and asking for trouble. RTP that used to accept envelopes, i can assure you are probably very cautious with BIG JOKE and others looking for them. The owners can still be arrested and fined as they are the owners and it is their responsibility.

Worker Dies As Tower Crane Collapses At Bangkok Construction Site
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Considering the number of sites and the quality of workers I am surprised -
The other alternative if you like quiet is move out to Pathum Thani rents here are 6k a month al in. Close to BTS so you can transit back and forth to BKK at will. LIfe is quiet but friendly. It would help to know where your job is located as that usually determines where someone lives. I also know of places around 5k in Wongwian area

God is not a Christian belief. Ifd you really study religion you will find that God has many names to many people The biggest misconception is that Muslims and Christians have different beliefs. If yo study the Quran you can see that a lot of what is said is in some way the same as the bible. Ramadan is a month of fasting and giving up vices in Christianity we call this Lent. Judaism also believes in God. There is the fallacy of a divine creation and that we come from something in outer space or that we evolved from the apes. The christian question then is who created the apes who created the land. If you say it was created in space then who created space. All to say that someone or something did something. Do I think there was a Jesus and Muhammad yes until someone can prove to me that there was not there is just too much imperical evidence that there was someone that upset the romans.
