Dear all

Anybody has a recommendation for eye surgery/Dr. Anybody been to RUTNIN / BKK?  http://www.rutnin.com/en/doctor/#1

As always the choice of Dr. is difficult for me w/o any personal recommendation.  Thank you for any feedback.  MS>

Anybody has a Dr.'s recommendation for eye-surgery. RUTNIN  Eye Hospital seems the place to go?  Thank you kindly.   MS>

Home Pro sells sprays that foam up. Let it sit and wipe off. Or use any of the much cheaper Magic Cleaners for kitchen at Friendship. Set on foam and repeat couple times. Good luck. MS

I wonder if they will have Chinese guided tours to Terminal 21? That would take the fun out of that new super mall.... MS>

Thank you all again for the great info. MS>

New  report from GB out. TH most dangerous destination for Brits and 25% of Brits believe that their Government covers medical bills abroad. Scary.... Plays exactly into the naivity of many to feel they don't need insurance. Friend just got diagnosed with colon cancer and has spent already 200K in first week for basic evaluation. In a private hospital in BKK. Get insurance if you can. MS>

Super info. Thank you all. MS>

Good evening:

I need some help by Pros, please.

Moving to a new house, my old one  has a great 5.1. Klipsch Ref. & Sherwood system, way overpowered, but super music and movies in the 40 sqm living room and an identical setup but

1 number smaller, still way overpowered in the 25 sqm bedroom. Selling house with systems and looking at a recommendation for enw place

Living Room:  45 sqm, high ceilings.

Bedroom: 30 sqm,  high ceilings

Would love a ATMOS/DTS soundbar, but would also go for a traditional system. Don't want to spend a fortune this time.  Maybe up to 50-60 K for each room? 

Anybody with a solution? Listened quickly to a Klipsch soundbar in Power Buy. Amazing......But is it the setup and demo or will it really be that good?  Looking at Sony

& Yamaha, too. But where to listen to? 

Thanks for any help.   MS>

Thank you all kindly for the info. MS>

Thank you all for your help. MS>

Many users are obsessed with speef/bandwidth and daily speedtests. I am more interested in good and steady service and support in case of line down. Friends in BKK told me AIS Fiber supposedly excellent and no throttle down internationally. Anybody using AIS and any feedback? Their internet Sim already provides great service and might even be an alternative for a home. 

Location South Pattaya. Please share. MS>

How many countries offer really FREE & Comprehensive Healthcare? Below links are not well researched and lack real facts. Germany, Switzerland etc. do not offer FREE HC, they might subsidize, regulate and have a welfare-system that steps up in serious cases. But even if HC charges are deducted from your salary, you still pay for it.

What country provides top-notch FREE HC??? FREE & UNIVERSAL are 2 different things!

I have friends with cancer who have to wait weeks or months to see the specialist in sveral European countries. What are the solutions??

Are there ways to resolve this or actual examples? Are you citizen of a country with THE SOLUTION? How does it look?

Feeling sorry for ill people without access to good HC.  Good night!   MS>

Thank you very much. Will also have a quick look at Bon Cafe in Naklua. They seem to have several models. MS>

Thank you kindly. This is great info and I will forward to them. Nice Sunday!   MS>

+1, efficient and friendly. MS>

Good day. Got a few friends coming and they want me to line up 3 days of ⛳ for them. I would not have a clue where to start. Could anybody help me with a shortlist of the favorite 3 or 4 courses and I can take it from there. Thank you for any brief feedback. MS>

Thank you so much Joe. Super-info!

Have a great Sunday.

Trying to help out a friend get paperwork organized.

Could anyone point me in the right direction how to start the process to get legally married at the Amphur  in Ubon Ratchatani.

We are reading amphurs not all have the same requirements??? Maybe a phone number we could call to find out more.

Thank you kindly for any feedback. MS>

What's your preference?

It seems impossible to get nice, crispy and most important HOT fries in any place. If I ask for fresh hot fries in KFC the chicken is dished out early and dry and cold. In any restaurant the waitress just scratches her head when I order, fries ? hot please. Should they be slightly salted or not. IMO yes... Thick ones would at  least be warmer longer.... 

Must try some ?? place next... 

Nice weekend you all. MS>

Thank you kindly. MS>

Anybody knows a shop selling different variations of steel-plate or aluminum plate?

A collegue just back from a short stay. Telling me it is a good alternative for a quick getaway, with Samet now being full of Chinese and expensive and Koh Larn out of favor for years. Anybody been there? Any good snorkeling options? Thx. MS>

Most private hospitals in most countries have very high rates. Obviously the US beats all by far, this why many insurers exclude the USA or charge extra, up to double if included. TH few top tier hospitals are in line with European top hospitals, actually some special stuff even higher. 

I can get a top of the line PET scan cheaper in SP than in TH. But then again can find other treatments sligjlty cheaper in ??. I think self insuring you need to have much more than 1 or 2 Mio Baht ready... Or have a way out, back home after initially treating here and then continue at home. Health Care is such a complicated topic as every country has its own system... Rich Scandinavian countries seem to work out quite well. ?? is well regulated but overrun by immigrants. GB is free but slow and scary... Switzerland is expensive... No easy and ideal solution. 

All comes down to money and that should not be the case when we talk health. Pity all these liberal governments allover can't come up with fair for poor and rich solutions. MS>

There are now newish cheap end brands that has fully imported no-fruit juice (non-orange tax lable) wines from Australia and France that works out at sub 300 baht per bottle, some even have big 2 litre size bottle too, works out cheaper than the likes of Mont Claire now

 

Looks like the wines with fruitjuice loopholes is closed for good

 

Still wondering if Thai authorities will consider wine with added 'grape juice' as one of the fruit wine category ?

Hi

Could you please point me to cheaper end wines please. Where to buy and names. Thank you kindly. MS>
