    Leaving Thailand after 13 Years..

    in General Topics

    Posted

    It’s like the fable of La Fontaine “the grasshopper and the ant” when I was little my mother bought these choco pots that had all these nice stories printed. Now they are full with legal text..
    I considered myself through all my life as the grasshopper, this is probably the reason why I ended up in Thailand. But if this is the lifestyle one chooses, at older age you can’t start to regret it. For me this means I will/have to work the rest of my life. At the end not so bad because I don’t get lonely, always surrounded by active people, solving problems every day and at the same time enjoy life.
    At 61 I still have professional goals, Instill want to achieve things and I have no idea if Thailand is the end station. Going back to my home country however is the last option on the list.

    Looking for input from chemist

    So if it's involved in a legal matter you probably need someone who can talk / write with recognised well accepted high credibility in this subject area. Probably not the local chemist.
     
    Perhaps you should visit the appropriate faculty of a well recognized university and ask to speak to an expert professor and ask him/her for an opinion and ask for help you find an internationally recognised well accepted book etc., which is globally accepted as an authority on this subject.
     
     

    I agree, I will continue to look for such person
    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks for your reply, I am quite convinced a pharmacist won’t cut it, I want to find the relation between the
    -(OH)C=C(OH)- structure and ascorbic acid. Is ascorbic acid part of that structure or is this structure part of ascorbic acid?

    I live and work for the last 20y in Thailand. Probably I will stay, returning to my home country is not an option. During the past 20y many moslims immigrated to my country in such way they dramatically changed it. It doesn’t feel like my country anymore it became theirs. But there are still many beautiful places in the world, I hope, one day, to find peace and rest in one of them.

    i can not make the trip back,
    there are so many hopeless steps i cant cope with,
    the distances too great, and no amount of money can
    persuade the doctors to ever bother with my case.
     
    also if i was in such a state that i thought i could do this
    enterprise, i would likely just get on with my life,
    either here in thailand or very possible a warm plot
    of land belonging to EU

    It is hard to believe that you can’t find a doctor in Thailand who can help you..back pain is terrible and does work on your mood I was in pain for many years 24/7 postponing the inevitable operation. Went to the specialist, fragments of the hernia were grown on my spinal cord, so a very risky operation. Revalidation was long, the outcome was not perfect but I can live painless most of the time. Later I had heart surgery, triple bypass, I survived that as well. Although I could have done the surgery in my home country, I had faith in these doctors and they did a good job. Today I fitness and even play squash once a week. So instead of being negative, do something about your back problem!

    Most exciting motorcycle you ever ridden

    in Motorcycles in Thailand

    Posted

    The first “heavy” motorbike I bought was the Yamaha VMAX 1200. Super fast but super dangerous. Didn’t had a good road feeling. I am still alive because I sold it before it could kill me.
    In Thailand 2001, I had a 1000 CBR fantastic machine but since we are not allowed to enjoy the highway not much fun left and I swapped it for a BMW 650 enduro. Didn’t like the vibration (1 cylinder) today I have no bike anymore, got scared and that’s IMO the moment to quit. I enjoy cars now :)

    How bad is it to beep the horn here?

    For road rage to happen you need 2 angry macho drivers. You can get into a road rage every day or never. Choice is yours. Luckily most Thai drivers behave but a good % are complete wackos, distance yourself as fast as possible from them, it is surely not in our nature but that’s where brains should take over.

    Garbage dump under the window

    Next time when you want more replies, throw in some more popular words like, but not limited to: Thai cutie, She took my house, ladyboy or gay mariage. Serious things seldomly receive high scores.. about your problem, putting a spirit house on a cleaned up garbage belt seem quite wrong to me. If it would be me, I would let the mess cleaned up and put a cheap wite fence. Any other action involving other neighbours is IMO a waste of time.

    My business is in Thailand, I just received a law suit for 155 milj THB for patent infringement which I did not commit. Just to put some comments in the right perspective. Even if I win the case I will have to pay all my legal expenses.

    The "beautiful Thai girl" myth?

    in General Topics

    Posted

    Yes beautiful woman are everywhere but the difference is in the %. Just walk along the majestic lanes in Moskou during a hot summer day, and you will find many gracious and beautiful ladies. The way they walk is just unseen in Asia.. but for me, I like my small Isaan girl. I also don’t mind when they get older as long as they take good care of their body and looks. Oh, by the way the guy on this forum who thinks “old” starts at 40 must have the wrong genes. I am 61 and still able to do all the things as when I was 40.
