I believe a large number of Thai adults have a hearing loss problem due to their well known love of noise, thumping bass etc. Very often I have to repeat myself two or three times when someone is in my way when saying "excuse me" in Thai. So why are there so many Opticians around and not Hearing Aid shops like there is in the UK?
What is so bad about sweeteners? But being a non drinker, I have never had a weight problem in my life, but I drink 2 or 3 glasses of juice with sweeteners a day and cannot tell the difference between a drink of juice with or without sweeteners.
The Thai government have only themselves to blame for farang's who live here trying to leave hospitals without paying. How many farang's have bought houses and had to put them in their wife's name because the Thai government would not let them buy property in their own names?
The farang's could not avoid paying their hospital bills if they had been able to buy property in their own name, so in that case the Thai government could then force a sale on the property to recover the hospital bills.
At least both Yingluck and Thaksin were democratically elected, which cannot be said for that unelected PM who led an illegal coup and filled his personal bank and offshore accounts big style and and is now in some other big fancy important job.
Can you imagine any insurance company paying the amount of money required to keep him in a top class "hospital" and all that "treatment" for
all his "illnesses"? It is hard enough trying to get insurance companies to pay out in normal circumstances let alone this. It would take an awful lot
of their usual small print to get round that lot.
The Labour government are the same thieving lot that the Tories are. They have had the same chance to stop thieving from the UK OAP's living in certain countries abroad as the Tories. Why can't some people see this?
