Suggest you put more water with it or dilute by mixing some tobacco with it

Checked both Rutnin & Bangkok Hospital (I was happy with both). Chose Dr Taranee at BH. I wear glasses anyway & happy to still wear, 80,000 Bht. Excellent from start to go. Ensure you understand the cell count problems that make the procedure & follow up costs more expensive & results less if you leave too long or other diminishing returns when over 70 years old.

I for one agree that hospital care prices for farangs & Thais should be different. Their healthcare system struggles (as does the NHS, NZ Health & Aust' Medicare" ) 3 that I know of. Why should they subsidize us unless working & paying SS when you are elgible. And we will not talk about the crazy prices in the US. It is one of the risks we take living here up to a point. I have insurance but only up to 2 mil per op which would in no way cover anything major

If fixed that quickly can only be a temporary fix. Get started on the tunnel, certainly Phuket must have put enough money in the Governments sludge fund by now

I could use marriage but have chosen retirement since coming off a 22 year B & work permit. Just feel it gives me that sense of "doing it my way"

How many go back to the horrific gas tanker explosion on Phetchaburi Rd. What a tragedy that was with so much lose of life & what a mess

The lack of longterm planning & infrastructure spending on the right things is epitomized here in that the tunnel has not been completed years ago, it really is a no brainer but the only 2 reasons I can logically think of why not built is that they do not have the knowledge to do so or if a suitable contractor who can has not been found that will play the illegal "commission" game

I know that Japan has orderd some bananas (yes, they are a herb) but how many ?????

The more driving in cars & motorbikes will push the Chinese injured, maimed or killed up & bad publicity will kill (excuse the pun) this way of travelling around Thailand. Now, back to the airport........

Never mind, next year send them over to Aceh, then there will be fireworks

I note that some Thais can read a little but no chance of speaking it. To have any chance of taking tourism to the next level this needs to be addressed but doubt will be. This will all go away about Christmas until next year when the index comes out again

They had a great opportunity during Covid to clean the place up, put tourist infrastructure in place, reeducate the taxis & get the taxi mafia & other rip off merchants sorted. The quality of spoken english could also have been improved during this time for the tourist areas along with the police needing to somehow make the roads safer on the vastly improved roads. They blew it. The tourist industry will roll along but the opportunity to have really top quality tourism in lesser numbers but really high spending has gone as although there are many really good quality hotels the amenities outside of their establishments just does not stack up

For good fish & chips that is cheap

Always after the event !!!!!!!! Amazing Thailand

So that is it for another 6 months ??

Should this have not been done as a matter of course ?

What could possibly go wrong ?????? Fire brigade, all leave cancelled & on duty please

Yes, agree with the original poster, they can be dangerous, Witnessed a taxi who thought he had the "street covered" & after a lady refused to pay the extortionate price requested hailed a passing cab. Within seconds he had a long sword out & was about to attack her. The hotel security guard intervened...... I went to park my pickup on Sukhumvit Soi 11 in a normal parking spot & was told on no uncertain terms "NO, Taxi only. So moved 50 yards down & parked with this guy running after me No, No. I just walked past him & got bumped & a "cutthroat sign" When I returned 20 minutes later I had 2 front cut tyres & the brand new spare had been unwound & stolen. They are a mafia & dangerous. Some of you must lead a very sheltered life here

Been in the business for many years. Your question is impossible to begin answering without a lot more information as is a very complex business, not only decibels but frequencies need to be considered along with flanking. You will not "soundfroof" a house or room without considerable cost but can reduce significantly

The checking of patrons has & is done by many bars. Having owned & operated bars in Bangkok for 25 years we have taken more keys to motorbikes & cars off people than I can number. Our bar in lower Sukhumvit was open till 4am on a regular basis. And "Smokey & the Bandit" refused drinks to many.

Now he is the "big boss" he has to say that. But on his way up the tree he would have been a benefactor to some %

He can do what he likes. If the shoe does not fit don't wear it

Why not just have 8 beers & go back to bed ?

What the headline should say is "Sukhumvit Soi 3 Arab quarter bars raided"

They are not Beers". They are all lagers. No brewery seems to be brave enough to make a good dark beer
