She doesn't have a Portuguese name. Sounds more like Russisn, Ukrainian. -
Appeal for humanitarian aid for Burmese sheltering in Thailand
Letseng replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Not as far as I know TH doesn't. Many arrive here & get in touch with UN to register for resettlement. This gives them some freedom of movement here & sort of protection from ending up in IDC. -
Phuket Hospital Appeals for Respectful Conduct from Russian Patients
Letseng replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Bumrungrad has a sign in the hospital rooms which says that staff should be treated with respect. They don't have many Russian patients but Westerners & Middle Eastern. In many hospitals in European countries you will find hospital security staff for a reason: aggressive patients. -

Russians are bossy unless you stand your ground. They have a bad attitude overall not just towards Thais. -

Duo steals million-baht diamond bracelet from Bangkok mall
Letseng replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
But an individual, independant shop with a front door. No problem for the thief to disappear in a mall. -
Duo steals million-baht diamond bracelet from Bangkok mall

The distracted staff may be an accomplice. Staff in these shops doesn't get distracted as there are 2 staff per customer & a guy at the door. Staff must have recognised nationality by their accent or if they spoke Thai. How did they know about "getaway taxi" reg.? -
Flights to Israel Return to Bangkok Amid Airspace Closure
Letseng replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
You wouldn't get favorable treatment at Tel Aviv airport regardless how stressful it may be. -
Result depends a lot on how the cuff is fitted. Saw a Japanese docu about it. My doc always does his own BP check with a manual gadget. Waste of time what the staff does. I use an Omron.

No, it was not an immigrant outlet but an established * restaurant owned & run by genuine Austrians. -
Chinese influencer’s food poisoning sparks Thai food hygiene row
Letseng replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Had food poisoning from eating stew in an upmarket restaurant in Austria. Spend 2 nights in hospital on a drip. Cost just over 8000€. Insurance paid. I found hygiene to be a problem in Europe. -
10 yrs ago had a partly torn meniskus. Bumrungrad quoted 250K. My overseas insurer declined as it wld be cheaper in Europe. Got 2nd opinion in Singapore & was told not to operate as I wld gain nothing but likely have more problems. Got recommended physiotherapy. Never had the op done, walk painfree, cycle, swim. 2nd opinion pays.

Bumrungrad was 216.000 a few months ago. It was a "package". Expensive yes.
-
Bumrungrad was a lot cheaper than your quote from Bangkok Hospital. Same op method. Open surgery has a much longer recovery & hospital stay.
-
Not my experience.
-
They have a chat which replies quickly. Put your question on X-Twitter. Reply is quick. Ring their office in Bangkok.
-
But you have travel cost to consider. Plus hotel before & after. Having lived in India I would not consider getting an op there. Esp. when I know nothing about the hospital.
-
220.000K. 1 night hospital stay.
-
My husband had it done & after 1 month there was no more discomfort. It was robotic surgery at Bumrungrad.

At least six construction workers killed in crane collapse
Letseng replied to george's topic in Thailand News
When you look carefully at the bits of this crane then you see why it collapsed. It would not hold up in a safety inspection.
