Police Guard Banks to Prevent Loan Sharks from Seizing 10,000 Baht Handout
As if these loan sharks don’t know where the people live. They will get it one way or another.

Homeless woman with multilingual skills goes viral in Thailand
So many people assume that the homeless are stupid or substance addicted, but that is not always the case here and this points it out. Many are fighting mental illnesses such as depression or anxiety and are often happier out on their own away from what triggers their illness. Each individual needs to be treated with respect and care for their own needs. Also the crude comments about how she looked and looks now need to step in front of a mirror and see how well they have aged.

The 800k Bank Balance
I gave the Jomtien immigration the letter from the bank and a full year’s statement and they still wanted a copy of every page of the bank book for this past year. So don’t even bother with the year statement from the bank. Just a waste of paper. They also didn’t need my TM30 or my 90 day receipt. But at least they were quick. In and out in 10 minutes.

Tramadol
I don’t think that you’re able to get low dose ketamine here so I’d just stick with what is working for you right now. Everyone reacts different to pain meds. I have had chronic pain ever since I got GBS and they tried morphine which had no effect. Fentanyl which helped but I couldn’t sleep on it and a few others. The only thing that did help was Percocet which I had while in America. Unfortunately they only have the slow release tablets here and they don’t work for me and are expensive. I’m still trying to figure it out with my doctors but it’s not easy. I understand your frustration, but just take what works for you. Chronic pain is not something that I’d wish on anyone.

How TAT comes up with its figures just boggles my mind. 🤪

Pheu Thai Defends Casino-Entertainment Complex Plan, Eyes GDP Boost
If they truly intend to use a good part of the taxes to improve Thai education and improve the the infrastructure I’d be happy with it, but I just don’t think that’s going to happen. It’s just going to make the rich richer.

Chinese Woman Arrested at Phuket Airport For Using Other Person’s Passport
I’m sure this isn’t the first one or the last one, but glad they stopped her. I’m sure since she’s Chinese it’ll be some misunderstanding 🤨

Residents Fear for Their Safety as Land Subsides Under Village Road: Near Pattaya
I hope that they all have their houses insured. I guess they can now try to sue the city if something happens since it’s been reported and not taken care of. Good luck. Hopefully it doesn’t come to this.

Italy Advances Proposal for Chemical Castration of Rapists and Pedophiles
I don’t think this is enough. It may curb some potential abuse but changing their dirty minds is another thing. These sickos who are convinced of rape or child abuse should be punished harder. They don’t deserve the air they breathe. JMO

Immigration Groups & Progressives Hope The Harris Border Policy is Temporary
I hope if she wins she’ll stick to it. You just never know. Right now she’s just trying to get more votes. I guess all we can do is sit back and watch the sh*t show.

Thailand’s golden rice grain faces storm from strong baht and India
Well they can only thank the BOT for making the baht stronger. The exporters are going to be hit hard.

Information requested with regard to 800000 Baht in bank for retirement visa
I just did mine in Jomtien and they didn’t give me a form or ask me to come back in 3 months to show proof of money. To be honest I never did when they gave me the form and never had any issues. Granted I always have at least 800,000 baht in the bank account. I’m sure each immigration department is different.

158 dems vote against bill to deport illegals, who commit sex crimes
I’m just surprised that anyone would be willing to keep them there. They should be deported immediately for any crimes. They aren’t even legally entitled to live there and if they commit crimes they definitely aren’t entitled to a jail term paid for by the citizens.

New Rules Restrict Street Vending to Low-Income Thais Only
Most don’t report their income anyway so it’s going to be almost impossible to enforce. If they are making good money and have built up a successful business why should they have to stop. Thai leaders logic never makes sense, and these “laws” about the stall location and not blocking the pathway or streets are rarely checked by the police unless there are multiple complaints and they do a week long show of face.

Thailand raises alarm on online child sexual harassment surge
I’m glad that they are attempting to deal with this situation. Unfortunately with all the kids having phones and access to the internet it will be hard to stop them all. Curiosity can get anyone in trouble these days on the internet.
