EV sales in Thailand to hit 50,000 despite auto loan regulations
natway09 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The whole concept is flawed with EV,s still. The embodied energy & amount of fossil fuels used used to make the batteries just does not add up. Human rights also needs to be looked at in lithium ore mining areas. In Thailand 80% fossil fuels used to make energy to charge also neans you are just moving pollution from one place to another. Live in the country & need to travel over 250km, forget it for me -
Plenty of rain here in the upper west. Raining now & just had our first 2 days without in 3 weeks. Garden vegetables pretty much gone, just too much

He also congratulated them on their financial situation. Had the pigs kept their noses out of the trough over many years there would be no need for rehabilitation

Thai gold is all priced in Bht not grammes in Thai gold shops with the daily buying & selling price usually clearly marked. The buying price is for the weight & extra charged for making ornamental or jewellery which when you sell 99% chance it is just melted down & re used.. The answer to your question is that both ornamental or bullion should get you the same selling price as advertised after weighing. If they start telling you must make a deduction , walk away & go somewhere else. It can be a good long term investment, ie: I have many Bht purchased for less than 9,000 Bht a Baht Selling over 100 Baht is "notifiable" whatever that means. PP or ID needed at reputable stores

After working here in Bangers for 23 years have retired to the country. My life style, house, amenities, land & relaxed style of living would just not be possible in my home country. Healthcare does cost but works here, many countries including the UK, Oz, NZ as examples the "free care" is diminishing in quality fast along waiting list for anything needing a specialist.

The office is in Police Central in Plonchit just past the Police General Hospital. Took about 3 days. Issued in Thai. I got it translated & the Indonesian Embassy accepted without needing a certification

Thai wife wants to buy land
natway09 replied to jayceenik's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
We have purchased 8 times over 18 years & sold 3 times. Land office very helpful, very efficient title deed (chanote) changed, signed by the Super after land tax paid. It is painless. For all you doubters out there the sales have shown an average of 16% per annum, firmly tucked away in MY bank account. Important as working in 6 countries no pensions -

Construction innovation with the longest concrete beams in Thailand

All we need is a good earthquake, even a 5.2 rumbler will take care -
Incidently for major procedures (private or public) Australia are years behind the big 5 here in Thailand

Let me tell you there are specialists in their field & there are specialists, (anywhere in the world). Thailand for example: a hip replacement, cannot beat Bangkok Hospital but would never go there for dentistry. Kidney & liver problems go straight to BNH. If possible for any brain surgery try & get a consult with Ramathidobi (public). Their knowledge & expertise as a teaching hospital is immense Horses for courses, as we say.

Has Thailand found legal recipe to beat soaring child obesity?
natway09 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I still think Thai children would still be lower weight/age ratio than than the US or UK. I am amazed how much fatty pork Thais in general eat though & the "easy" snack opportunities are now provided just about nation wide by 7/11. -
The world needs every bee it can get, wild or otherwise. An apiarist would puff a bit of smoke, find the Queen, put her in a hive & all will follow. Amazingly regimented, bees
