'n the service centres and shops, they seem loathe to sell you just a prepaid SIM without trying to force you to buy a 300+ baht package' that was my experience more or less. AIS, True shops at a mall all tried flogging me a tourist sim, the same overpriced one they sell at airports.

haha, I used to come and stay for six months at a time but that was about ten years ago. back then you topped the phone up at 7/11 for pre paid so assumed you still could only came for a month last year so didnt need to top up

so just go into an AIS store and ask for a pre paid sim and have it set up The just top it up at 7/11 each month? thanks for your help

Hi, last September when I came for a month I got a tourist sim at the AIS shop on a 50% promotion, I think the full price was around 900ish baht which is steep for one month can I just buy a starter sim and then get a pre paid amount put on each month? I will be in Thailand for two months, only use the Thai sim for 4g (my phones 5g is blocked in Thailand for some reason) for use with googles, maps, translate and some web browsing when out and about. just looking for about 20gigs a month of data max anybody know what options are out there? Thanks

not something I ever noticed on women back in the west until they got 60ish while it is not uncommon to see on women here in their 20's. It is curious because I dont think I have noticed it on any Asian (not specifically Thai) women that live in the west.

Hi, I have read on some facebook groups that expat women often experience hair loss or hair thinning when in Thailand for extended periods. some people report putting a filter in the shower lessons the issue. I have a Thai female friend who is experiencing hair thinning in her 30's that she is concerned about. Anybody have a Thai partner or friend who has issues with hair thinning? have you tried a shower filter? any feedback?

Was booking early to secure best prices. apparently CM to KL is a new route for Malaysia airlines. Flights on that route only begin around that time. I dnt travel that much so was unsure if government approval for a flight was an issue or not

Hi, I am looking at booking a flight from CM back to Australia via KL in late Novemeber. The flight I am looking at with Malaysia airlines displays this message - 'New flight, New flight is subject to government approval'. They are taking bookings for the flight so Am I correct in assuming approval is merely a formality? I have never seen this message before. there appear to be CM to KL flights most days of the week My other option is to go CM to BKK, BKK to KL and then get the same flight from KL to Australia I would be getting with the CM flight. It is more time consuming to do it this way but I dont want to book and get stuck paying through the nose for another flight if this flight does not get approved. Advice appreciated, thanks
