  1. Typically, a class action notice comes from the court, plaintiff's law firm or another firm appointed as a clearing house for the court pronouncements. Never from the defendent. Read the document you received carefully and be sure it's not from the court or plaintiff. Usually you are given the choice to be part of or not part of the class.

    If BBL was illegally charging fees and the court agrees, the plaintiff and defendent will negotiate. Then reach a settlement which will be presented and accepted by the court and finally presented to you.

    I really can't understand why BBL is contacting you directly!! Something's off here.

  2. While I agree that some balcony railings are low, the percentage that fall over by true accident I suspect is very low. Most are self induced whether it be suicide, drug or alcohol related or the slight "nudge" from the GF. More interesting, it seems like the majority of them happen in Pattaya and to men over 50. They can't all be clumsy or 6'5

    As for railings being built to "Thai size" per Pgramm's note, Thai's are not all that short, thin maybe, but not short. Many of them are average size like foreigners. You do not hear about tall Thais going over the railings. Just a point to consider.

    Average male Brit or American - 5' 10"

    Average male Thai - 5' 7"

  3. Suspected 'heart attack' that's usually how Cambodia reports accidental heroin overdose, from taking otherwise safe cocaine sized doses.

    It’s the Golden Triangle effect at work – with so much of it being produced next door, heroin is pretty easy to come by in Cambodia. It’s easy to get and purer than what is sold in Europe or in the U.S. It’s so cheap, dealers will sell heroin as “cocaine”… leading to all those unfortunate “heart attacks” in the news.

    I find your post very offensive. With nothing but great, warm and loving things to say about him, the first thing any of this young man's family or friends would see if they happen upon this thread is your tasteless and unnecessary post. Whether you think you're providing "information" or just being a nasty troll, you should be ashamed for the inference.

    Well said mate.

  4. " A professional sketch artist visited her in the hospital to draw a composite of the suspect, and she’s hoping it will lead to an arrest."

    Unfortunately, it will be blurred when (or if) the press releases it to prevent possible loss of face to the assailant.

    She's certainly an optimistic girl, if perhaps a little too naive to the dangers of Thailand. Surely this will give her a bit of a crash course in Bangkok street smarts.

    That's it. Another vote for "blame the victim".

  5. Easy alternative is an E Visa through the government site - evisa.moip.gov.mm

    Can't remember the details -I am moving and all my files are packed.

    Very easy process from your desktop without spending a lot of time.
