  1. Saw an interesting statistic a few days ago. More US civilians have been killed by guns since 1970 than all the US soldiers killed in wars since 1776.
  2. Agreed. Dogs are easy to keep out of your property but it is nigh on impossible to keep cats out. The cats scream during mating time, tear through your plants fighting each other, scratch the paintwork on vehicles, have kittens which take up residence in the engine compartment of your car, kill all the interesting wildlife such as garden lizards and birds and numerous other issues.
  3. Do you actually know you were ripped off? Have you tried to put some fuel in since the incident? I know roughly how much it will cost to fill my tank depending on where the gauge is at the time, how did the attendant know how much fuel your car needed to be filled up? They would look a bit silly if you went in half full and he managed to get a complete tank of fuel into your car.
  4. My 12 month bank statement issued by BKB that I used in March didn't have any stamps or signatures on it. I was a little concerned that they may not accept it so I attached the receipt I got when I requested it. It was accepted with no questions asked.
  5. Panasonic NCR18650B 3,400mah batteries seem to be ok. Don't buy any batteries that claim to be more than 3,400mah because they are likely fake as 3,400 is about the maximum capacity at the moment.
  6. My sister had a single tooth dental implant done at the end of last year in the US and it cost $8,000.
  7. What about the fishing pier? Went down a few months ago and the pier was roped off due to covid. Are they allowing people to fish during the day again?
  8. One clinic I looked at started at about 350,000 per jaw. You don't get a full set of implants, dentures are set onto two to four implants. Some patients may require extra implants. Not sure if the price included extracting old teeth. There are places in Bangkok which give free consultations.
  9. When I did mine last year none of the local clinics had the newer version of the form but I found it on the internet. medical_certificate_2021.pdf
  10. If you have a copy of the house book and home owners ID you will not need a lease agreement. Copies of passport picture and visa/extension pages. Reason for requesting a TIN. Best to take someone who speaks Thai with you. The required form is below. Did mine a few months ago and went with my son and had no issues. I am on a retirement extension and could prove I had been here for a lot longer than 6 months lp101_110355_220329_070909.pdf
  11. That would be interesting if it was a Johns Hopkins study. Unfortunately the study was by three economists, one of which was affiliated with Johns Hopkins. Johns Hopkins has not endorsed the study.

    KYC

    KYC is a CYA tool. I can provide several accepted proofs of address for a house I don't live in but cannot provide the same proof for the house I do live in.
  13. I suppose they face the same moral dilemma as the US and UK companies that are still operating in Russia.
  14. In the Europa figures you can see evidence of another possible rip off in the price differences for each country between 95 and 98 fuel. Some countries almost the same price and others nearly 10% difference.
  15. That's the headline but the article is about the price at the pump. Thailand does not set the price of crude oil, that is done on the open market.
  16. Not sure you have the same issue but sometimes when I order COD it says waiting for payment in the "to pay" status line and takes a little while for it to move to the "to ship" status.
  17. Death rates have decreased every year since 1950 until an increase in2019. The fine print at the top says that 2020 and newer data is a projection and does not include the impact of Covid 19. Not sure why you chose 2013 as a reference date? The dada is not much use to make any claims about the impact of Covid 19 one way or the other. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/WLD/world/death-rate&ved=2ahUKEwj89o-3x7_2AhVfxzgGHRm4DjkQFnoECAQQBQ&usg=AOvVaw0ImXMuUZviApkohnNLATQ7
  18. Yes, for all of us. You are about four months behind Anutin. Thailand probably has more doses of "the good vaccine" than willing arms to inject them in at the moment. Also, after their extremely poor start, they have now overtaken several western countries on % of population vaccinated.
  19. My wife and sister in law had a Pfizer booster at the same hospital two weeks ago. My son had a Pfizer booster in Bangkok a couple of months ago. What are you on about?
  20. Just had a Pfizer booster at my local hospital. Walked up to reception, showed my vaccination cert proving six months from second Pfizer jab and was injected 5 minutes later. Excellent service.
  21. The reason you cannot find Lynx is because it is sold under the name Axe in Thailand.
