A post not in English has been removed. @giog please note forum rules and post in English. Rule 16. English is the only permitted language anywhere on ASEAN NOW, except within the Thai language forum, where using Thai is allowed. Short Thai translations of technical terms are permitted in specialty forums. While we make allowances for members who do not speak English as their first language, we expect everyone to make an effort to post in a manner that allows others to understand their posts. As an international forum we have members from many countries in the world, and English is not the first language of every poster.

A number of off topic posts, discussing who has the right to post on AN have been removed. This topic is “Trump is back! He has won” @IC2000it is not your role to tell other posters they have no right to post on AN, because you disagree with their opinions, or because they do not stay full time in Thailand. If you disagree with their views, challenge it with a debate, without trolling, telling them they can’t post as not in Thailand or using something that is not a recognised medical condition. AN is open to everyone, providing you follow the forum rules.
