congrats!! Perhaps you can use some of the winnings to convince more Chinese to come to Thailand. Since the previous TAT Scheme to get more Chinese tourists failed miserably. Why TAT thinks extending free visas will improve their odds to get more travelers when it did not work the last time a couple months ago?

thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
In my household of 5. In the last 2 weeks 3 have been diagnosed with Flu, 1 with Dengue Fever, and the last with respiratory infection. The Flu is the worst. Keeps the body temp to 40c. coughing a lot. -
Divers Remove 338kg Ghost Net, Repair Reef Damage in Sattahip
thesetat replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Nothing in the report about how such a large net got spread out there to begin with. -
Here in Prachuap there is a problem with Dengue fever.. What is it with these pesky mosquitoes? Can they not cooperate and agree to pass on the same virus throughout the country? The news is also not telling anything about the flu virus that seems to be getting quite bad. I wonder if this has anything to do with opening borders to China for their money? All of my children have been sick with either Dengue or this flu. Nasty for them both. Dangerously high fever for both..I wonder when Zika will make its way going south.

British and Russian Motorcyclists Collide in Pattaya
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
I would agree. After that accident she will be forced to ask for less money until her injuries are healed. Unless she got scarred badly that is. . Either way she lost a lot more than just her customer for the evening. -
The bank will not and there is no way to even authorize to pay the fee yourself. Most cards from banks are sent from a main distribution center. So there is no way to pay the UPS or other courier fee.

Housekeeper Arrested after Stealing from Frenchman in Patong
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Happens all too often in Thailand. Tourists come with excess cash and suddenly it disappears. Temptation is an evil that is hard to resist. Especially when they could not hope to see that amount at one time unless they saved for many months. -
Anti-Graft Agency Asked To Quizz Senior Officials Over Thaksin Case
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
What they need to do is begin inquiries into uncommon wealth for all who associate with Thaksin in this fiasco. Yet noone has even suggested it. -
What natural disaster? Do you really think they did proper safety inspections prior to using this? Lucky this happened in Thailand. If it was in the USA the parents all would get rich suing the city and the emergency vehicle company. Luckily there were no deaths. What a tragedy to happen on a special day made just for kids to have fun.

I tried that also. It did not work. The bank said they mailed it but 2 months later it still have never been received. So i had to resort back to sending it to family.

Kids should wear face masks at outdoor activities on Children’s Day
thesetat replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Most private and semi private schools cater their english classes with A/C. However they usually also add money to your bill for this as well. An additional fee. Government schools though use the logic that A/C is bad for the kids in a classroom and promotes sickness and laziness. (Thai logic I guess if it cost more then make an unreasonable excuse why they need to do it that way. ) At any point though. Most regular Thai schools will refrain from installing A/C in the classrooms. They use fan and keep their windows open. Even if they have an A/C installed they are not using it due to electricity costs. In many semi-private schools I noticed they have certain times of the day in which they are forbidden to use the A/C. What surprised me was that these times were usually the hottest of the day. Again to reduce the electricity costs was their reasoning. -
In 10 years i have never been able to get a replacement or renewed card sent to me from the USA to Thailand.. Never. I have tried many times.

AIS and True reinforce identity checks for multiple SIM card owners
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
They want to confirm identity so when they sell your number to the scammers who are always calling. Those scammers can be sure they know who you are. My wife has been getting a lot of calls from these people who seem to know her name and other private information that only AIS has. When they call she pretends they have the wrong number. They are asking for her by name though and this is disturbing in itself. AIS sells your phone number and personal information as does TRUE and the other services offered in Thailand. They do not check the companies buying this information apparently. The only way to stop it is to call your service and have you taken off the lists for distribution as well. Which is unnerving and in my opinion an invasion of privacy. -
Im actually surprised your bank sent that. Bank of America would never send me a new credit card and I need to have that sent to family in the USA. Then the family mails it to me.
-
Be grateful then your Thai family helps you still. You must be helping them in ways that provide incentive to be so attentive. Other than that you may as well forget and stop complaining about access for disabled. You are beating a dead stick there. Thailand will not be making such changes to aid your mobility as they do not care if you get out of the house. So button your lip and kiss your families butt for helping you still. haha...

British and Russian Motorcyclists Collide in Pattaya
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
The rental bike business booms there in Pattaya without any checks to see if the driver actually knows how to drive a motorcycle. Then these same drivers become overconfident and drive stupidly and fast or recklessly causing accidents. They deserve their injuries and the hefty fines they will soon have to pay for the damage they caused. In other countries you actually need a special license to drive or rent motorbikes. Thailand should adopt a safer attitude towards this. Perhaps change all the motorbike rentals to bicycles. Pattaya is not that big of a city that you could not get anywhere on a bicycle easily enough.- 64 replies

Corrections Dept allows Thaksin to remain at Police General Hospital
thesetat replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Well, you have never been whisked away after spending time in another country partying with their leaders only to get out of your airplane and taken to a prison. It can be quite traumatic and most likely those first few hours in prison scared him into heart failure which was why they could fly him quickly to an outside hospital late at night. Then of course every time revues come up it must make him have seizures thinking of going back into prison so the doctors must be busy with that also which required even longer stays in the hospital. -

He must have a really small pecker to worry so much to pay bribes so others would not see it. -
House police affairs panel to visit Police Hospital this Friday
thesetat replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
More like this is akin to telling him in advance that they are coming to arrest him like they have done with so many other high-so who fled just prior to their arrests. -

They should be checking the assets and bank accounts of all people associated with this to see if anyone has recently become rich with deposits or large purchases also.. -
For me, I feel a little light headed in the morning. I few times I have gone to see the dentist or doctor and they have told me i had high blood pressure. But, it only stays high until I have eaten something. After I eat my pressure is normal and healthy. Usually, I feel fine when j have had my first cup of coffee. I think it is the sugar also that makes me feel better but I have also tested and am not diabetic at all. The coffee though is making my blood pressure high until I have eaten something. Perhaps you need a little sugar in morning or some food to stop the feeling. Now I am waking in the middle of the night and having a cup of coffee and then sleep through the night. I do not wake feeling lightheaded anymore in the morning.

Thai Team Wins Top Prize at Ice Sculpture Contest in Harbin
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
exactly yet the article says they won the ice sculptor first and third place. when googling this there was nothing in Chinese news. Which if why i asked about if anyone found a link from china about it. I lived in harbin china for awhile. Every year the river freezes over and the things they make there is amazing. Which is why i was curious how that snow sculpture won. The chinese even make an ice hotel there so detailed. They have lifetimes of experience doing this. Which again makes me wonder how a Thai won. -
Thai Team Wins Top Prize at Ice Sculpture Contest in Harbin
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I have searched china news services and have found nothing to confirm this article. Perhaps someone else can send a link to a Chinese news agency that reported this. I do not trust Thailand news services as they seems to make their own stories without proof sometimes to make Thailand look good. I saw photos of the winner last year there in a Chinese paper. It amazes me Thailand won with the one they showed in the story. No detail. simplistic at best. So i have doubts about this story. -
American wanted for sharing explicit videos and abusing Thai women
thesetat replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Bar girls and massage girls are secure careers in Thailand. It does not matter how old they are to work at those places and men seem to still be paying for the old ones in pattaya for sex. Their pay is better than any office worker. Seems to me career and good profiles can match any number of sex workers in Thailand
