Full Medical- Bangkok Khonkaen hospital yesterday
I’ve had 2 full medical there. Last one was in 2018 before we left Thailand. Prices haven’t gone up that much which is good. I agree they are very thorough although it was a long day as like you had to see numerous specialists. The parking must have been extended because in 2018 if you didn’t get there before 06:30 you had to park way up the back. Most of the specialists and doctors I saw spoke very good English. Would certainly recommend the hospital.

Thai woman wins 9 million baht from UK bet
I think you think too much. If you made some poor life choices do not project them onto others. Reads like you are another glass half full guy.

Listen Brainstillmissing (not sure if spellcheck is working). You have absolutely no idea of their financial situation but decided to be negative straight away. What a sad sad outlook on life, you certainly are a glass half empty type of guy.

Been together 20 years, family together and they both work hard. They had a 10 year plan so might have some other money saved. Don’t think there is any need to be negative.

Sexual assault in an international school
Rather than spend your time asking questions here, be a proper dad, get in your car and go and get your daughter. She must be terrified and confused yet you’re asking guys here what to do!! I find it hard to fathom why you haven’t gone to the authorities or removed your daughter from the school.

Unruly British man goes berserk on Bangkok-London flight (video)
Don’t do that. Allow him back into Thailand so he can get charged with assaulting the steward. Some time in a Thai jail would do him the world of good 😀

best ways to convert THB to AUD
OP, will the ATO here in Oz be looking for a cut? My wife just sold some land and would like to transfer the money down here as we live in Oz now. It’s half of what you’re looking to transfer but still a good amount. Like you we are looking at options for the best way getting it transferred. We spoke about a few trips up and down bringing in under 10k cash but it’s a lot of flying.

Factchecking 21 misleading myths about electric vehicles
Anyone who believes China cares about human rights of children is 100% gullible and ignorant. Try doing a little bit of research yourself. Here is a little bit from the European Parliament in 2022. Cobalt is a critical component in rechargeable car batteries and is indispensable for the transition from fossil fuels to sustainable energy sources. The EU’s 2030 climate target will only increase demand for this metal in the EU. The Democratic Republic of the Congo, where the world’s largest known reservoirs of this metal are found, provides a substantial amount of the cobalt the EU needs to meet its growing demand[1]. Despite the Commission’s zero‑tolerance approach to child labor in trade agreements, it is estimated,, according to reports by UN agencies, that in the southern Katanga province, more than 40 000 children are working in hazardous conditions in cobalt mines, with inadequate safety equipment and for very little money[2].

Factchecking 21 misleading myths about electric vehicles
Nice little graph. I never claimed that cobalt " Blood Diamond of Electric Cars", wasn't used in other products. However your graph from 2021 tells us that the Congo has increase production by 34% to feed the EV industry, plenty of overtime for those estimated 44,000 poor kids. Read below and you will realise that your claim that it is now less than 34% is pure codswallop. A few years ago, revelations about dire working conditions in Congo’s informal mining sector vaulted into the world’s headlines after Amnesty International and the Congolese rights group Afrewatch published a report detailing deaths and injuries among the countless children working in small-scale, hand-dug mines, often in manually carved tunnels that frequently collapsed and buried the young miners alive. Since then, global appetite for Congo’s cobalt has grown sharply, mostly driven by a dramatic increase in the demand for EVs. Nearly 90 percent of the cobalt produced in Congo, home to half the world’s reserves, goes into batteries, including those used by American, French, German, Japanese and South Korean automakers. Demand for cobalt is projected to increase 20-fold by 2040, according to the International Energy Agency.
