What is a Thai life worth to the government?
Presumably those posters that feel a government is responsible for its citizens overseas, believe that government should also have the right to control where they are allowed to travel.

help me fix this mess (sewer ,waste water system)
Septic tank for toilets. Sinks, showers, washing machines to soakaway or grey water drain. No detergents or bleaches should ever enter the toilet. From your photo it all looks connected correctly, so the problem is either a blocked sink pipe, or a soakaway that doesn't soak away. Just had to dig my sink pipe out, so many 90deg bends (7) the steel snake couldn't get own it. Now it only has 2 bends.

‘A deadly societal force’: A Q&A with author Dr. Peter Hotez on the anti-science movement
Amazing how much disrespect he's getting, thousands are dissing him. One question I'd like to ask him, "Why are vaccine scientists so fat and obviously unhealthy"

Where the ultra rich spend their holidays ? Nobody comes to Thailand, why ?
Thailand doesn't have anything the rich want. If I were rich I wouldn't come here either. I'd live in Florida or California, and holiday in the Bahamas.

Maybe you should choose a manual change EV to compare.

Move to boost tourism sector with worrying signals near the start of the country’s high season
Up in CM hotels are empty, but the backpacker dorms seem to be doing well. Most of the long term expats seem to have gone though, no idea why.

Why do you quote the more expensive automatic model? A Celerio manual is a great little 4 door, I'm seeing them everywhere, not surprising at 320kbht..

Condo Market price trends ? Pattaya/Jomtien
When I moved to CM in 2009 I was renting a condo, 6000bht/month. Same condo is still 6000bht/month in 2023. Not sure rental inflation is happening. During that same time my pound dropped from 50bht to 45bht (-10%) But my pension income nearly doubled (+80%). I'm quids in because of inflation.

Does Natwest mobile app work in Thailand?
You need your Google play account set to UK. Natwest bank app works perfectly, I use it several times a week. But activating the app for the first time is more of a problem, you'll probably need a Skype account or UK SIM.

If I were in a cage with a tiger, I wouldn't turn my back and trust it not to take a chunk out of me. This doesn't equate to me hating tigers.

Cost of Living Comparison Between Pattaya and Da Nang
Don't give a flying one what Agoda says, I've been there, you haven't. Accommodation that costs 500bht in Thailand, costs 800-1,000bht in Vietnam/Cambodia/Philippines/China. Thailand has the cheapest hotels/guesthouses in SEA, and I've been all over.

Any "This is Thailand" Stories?
Been in the same Moobaan 3 bed house for the past 10 years from new. Snag list, incoming wires from meter reversed, septic tank lid not screwed down. No other real problems, wire to the gate light failed, incoming water pipe joint broke under the kitchen patio, few tiles off in a really bad storm, kitchen sink waste pipe blocked and had to dig it out ...... that's about it, completely happy with the house.

Thailand Ruined
I find it as much fun as it was in 2009 when I first arrived. Not much in the way of price rises, bars close a bit earlier. Anything could happen next year, but usually their silly ideas come to nothing, same as always.

Moment Range Rover explodes before £20m multi-storey structure collapses - sparking travel chaos for up to 50,000 passengers
Car already identified as Range Rover Hybrid ............. The government are trying to hide the danger from EVs from the general population. But the UK insurance companies have already been raising prices/not renewing EV insurance. Guess this will be the end of EVs in the UK as no insurance co. wants a 20M bill for a fire in a car park.
