I think it's due to the 80% of men traditionally used up on the front line surviving and being given welfare. Not to mention the 50% of women that traditionally died in childbirth.

Government minimum insurance covers everyone for 30kbht, which is enough to cover most accidents treated in a government hospital.

But you're not a foreign tourist, you live here and have your own transport.

Disagree, The reason foreign tourists go to private hospitals is because that's where the ambulance takes them.

I live in Thailand, no need for porn, I can do all that myself, and with more attractive women.

I'm more concerned by the Thai private hospitals extorting unwary foreign tourists. In fact if I was a travel insurance company, I would exclude all treatment in Thai private hospitals from my policies just to teach the greedy bar stewards a lesson.

I would be more than happy to pay the UK price of 700gbp for unlimited use of the Thai health service.

I don't believe 'subsidised' is the right word in this situation, as the 30bht is not related to the treatment. My local government hospital doesn't even collect the 30bht, not worth their time I heard someone say. The hospital get a fixed monthly budget, plus any cash they make from non registered or foreign patients. And they appear quite keen to get that cash, they don't seem to view it as a 'charity', or making a loss. My current treatment is mostly X-rays (x2) at 250bht/time, doesn't cost them anything giving 500bht profit per visit. Doctor already hired, hospital makes 50bht. X-ray operators already hired, no consumables as all electronic x-rays, shown on the doctors phone/tablet/PC.

Agree, more money than sense!

More important, how old was the waitress?

You're on ignore for being a worthless person.

Medical services are free to citizens, foreigners pay the actual costs of the service. Nothing is subsidised by the government or anyone else.

I'd take a trip to Pattaya.

Do women satisfy any man?

Obviously some manufactures are ripping people off. But normal price batteries take about 7 years to repay the outlay, if they last longer than that it's profit. I'm planning for the zombie apocalypse, in any EOTW event the grid will always be the first thing to go.

Solar batteries 12kwhr = 50kbht. https://s.lazada.co.th/s.OSAmJ EV batteries cost far more.

Example 1 A century ago your ancestors would marry and give birth at age 14 and everyone thought it was normal. In fact our entire culture was based around a 14yo impregnated by the 'holy spirit' and married to a 70yo man. Example 2 A century ago nobody had driving licences, if you could get your hands on a car/horse/carriage you were good to go

I didn't vote for it!

Usually caught from swimming in freshwater, not from food.

Almost every police interview is a fishing expedition, which is why you should never talk to them.

Plenty of gay men pretend to be straight, I see no conflict in your tale.

Just Gay is about having sex with other men, nothing more. If you don't have sex with other men you're straight. If you do have sex with other men you're gay. There's no middle ground. Your ridiculous statement concerning talking with other men, could be equally applied to talking to children/dogs/etc. It's faulty logic.

100% gay BS! Straight men don't have sex with other men, end of!

It seems unlikely as more than half of all voters will be voting for Trump.

Don't you just hate those foreign flockers!
