  1. https://www.webmd.com/hiv-aids/hiv-alcohol Currently, there are no meaningful interactions between common HIV medications and alcohol. But, there are multiple negative impacts of drinking while taking your HIV treatment. Overall, drinking alcohol can seriously impact how well your HIV medication works.
  2. But, medication is hampered with excessive alcohol use. Making it useless.
  3. silly you... one drop of blood is enough to catch it.. That could be in a kiss or a BJ or even in normal sex without a condom. how you can post something so misleading? The ways HIV can be caught have not changed since HIV was first learned about
  4. More likely it seems a better opportunity to add to whatever brown envelop was given before to turn a cheek. Only now less people will notice outside the bars and clubs if drinks are actually served after 2am or not.
  5. Wife showed me an facebook message from a student talking about some young University student who brags she has HIV and that she goes to clubs and bars seeking men for one night stands. Knowingly passing her HIV to those men and never telling the men she is infected. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/3S47sykLu9ajE9eH/?mibextid=Le6z7H The odd thing is the police do not seem to care about this... In the USA she would be charged for a felony. It makes me wonder why there are no laws in Thailand about HIV infected people doing such things. In Matayom Schools I have seen students having sex in bathrooms and classroom and behind the buildings in Thailand. Doubtful condoms were ever used. It is up to the parents to teach morals and values so this does not happen. But with Thai culture it is taboo to discuss these things at home or teach them in the classroom so kids learn how to be safe if they choose to have sex.
  6. as it seems. You are correct. It was a sad day for the Thai people but, they allowed these things to happen in their government. So sympathies are minimal. Also they have yet done anything to change it.
  7. You said no reason... but the reason is obvious...MONEY MONEY MONEY.. Which is really all they care about getting from foreigners in Thailand
  8. Hahaha you surely are misguided if you believe this is what that money would go for.
  9. In a related article. Many thais are now choosing to stay in Israel. Due to their financial debts obtaining the work and traveling there to do the work.. I seriously doubt they would be making this choice if the government had provided their travel for free to escape the chaos there. With so many Thai dead there already and many hostages being taken that are Thai. the government made it obvious that only the people who had the money could leave. Now they choose to offer a refund to those people and still do not offer support in actually leaving that country. Once again Thailand is retroactive leaving so many there with really no choice how they can leave and using that as a claim that they prefer to stay and risk being killed or taken hostage.
  10. If I am not mistaken.. The new tax laws only apply to those foreigners who generate income in another country and transfer it to Thailand. Those who get retirement benefits as their source of income will not be required to pay tax.. Those who paid tax already in their country where the income was earned can not be charged 2 times so will not have to pay tax also. So most foreigners who have retired to Thailand will not need to worry about paying this tax. This was my understanding of it when I read the new laws. Someone is welcome to correct me if i am mistaken
  11. Come on... we all know they scoured the internet to find this Danish report. Most likely it was from some small news clip in their small country making this claim and has no bearing on the rest of the worlds opinion or polls... It was posted in Thai news to bring hope without anything factually actually coming out of it..
  12. wrong... it is because the scheme is made so that you can only use the digital cash within a certain number of Km from your residence. Making it useless to more Thai than those who can actually use it who live in cities. The majority of Thais do not live in cities where they can find shops willing to accept their digital wallets. Instead they live in rural communities with very few shops near. Making the money useless to them. So it surely does not help the ones who would use it for self sustainability unless they have some good shops near their homes that are willing to accept the digital money.. If given cash, they can go to the places they normally shop and use the cash for things needed and wanting which in turn would help the outlets. This scheme is actually a very bad idea simply because it will not help those who really need it.. and instead will only help those who are within the range they will assign to the card or app closest to your home. My Thai family home is 15 Km from the nearest supermarket or convenience store.. So this scheme using their wallet is useless to them. I am most certain this applies to the majority of Thais as well. Especially in the north where the most poor live far from any major shopping outlet.
  13. These people must be real idiots.. To say it stemmed from the shooting at the mall is ludicrous. If this was the case then arrivals would have dropped but they would have been cancellations for this. My guess is the first influx was those people available to travel and took advantage of the timing for Thais cancellation of the entry fee and new visa program for Chinese. After that, tourism would have dropped anyway. I expect it to be a lot less soon as their comments about the shooting will make the Chinese more hesitant to book any flights here. That along with the kidnapping and forced labor or ransoming that has been happening to Chinese people in Thailand. But this would affect numbers in the future. Not immediately as the article suggests.
  14. If there is one thing i have learned in Thailand is that it dos not take much to get a doctor to sogn or say something on writing when asked. But ask yourself this. If the boy really had serious mental problems then why didn't the parents have better control over him in their custody? Finding all those guns in his house makes me think that perhaps either they did not care or ever look into or after thier mentally unstable kid or perhaps thier was never a mental instability there and parents had no concern when seeing bad behavior.
  15. Yes, You are correct. Most certainly the mall business will be less for a short time. However, you can guarantee the mall will perform some type of buddhist ceremony to get any specters out of their mall... It will be well advertise as well to assure prospective consumers that they will not see any ghosts there. Haha.. silly but then i have seen it happen in a school where the elevator repairman fell into the shaft and died.. Within a month they closed half the school to perform their stupid rituals for this.
  16. Not just take action.. But take stupid drastic actions... This kid for sure did not have any Thai gun permit.. So he was carrying the weapon (which i understand was sold as a pistol used for firing blanks) legally online. No permit needed. So how does stopping the issuance of all permits prevent or make a difference in regards to the actions of one 14 year old kid... I am most certain if a 14 year old wanted a gun permit then he would be refused.
  17. contrary to Thai wife to be's law i would presume.. not thai law that i ever heard of
  18. you are not thia making 15,000 to 30,000 a month living in Bangkok... you can not use yourself to compare with her dilemna. 1300 is quite alot to throw away to many thais
  19. i would have to argue your comment about being the worst investment. THey seem to be a really good investment for those who control them. History has shown they are quite adept at killing people even though it has never been done against other countries. The seem devoted and faithful to follow the orders of only their generals. They also are really good at blocking rioters who protest the Gov. Surely someone profited quiet a lot from their training and devotion to only do what the ARMY told them to do.. So, in fact, it was a really good investment and return for someone..
  20. I would love to watch.. But you need to send PM and give details about how much money you will send me for adding to your views for the vdo... Why has this post not been sent to spam?
  21. If they did that they would have to pay them real salaries and they would need to get real temporary teaching permits... My guess is the school opted to take them on this way so they could save alot of money as well as paperwork.. I have seen schools hire foreigners and make them teach but in their contracts they are not hired as teachers but instead are volunteers. Makes a big difference with immigration until they are caught actually teaching a class.
  22. Has the news got the inside information that the reason he took a vacation from duty was because of the raid on his home and accusations for being part of the online gambling? Perhaps they have it all wrong and he really took his leave when he lost face from losing the top position he was vying for.
