Quite obviously this is NOT an exhaust emissions issue. That's the result of a coolant problem.

Unfortunately it is rarely that simple. The real offenders are old clapped oil burners that have never seen the inside of a workshop since the day they took to the roads. Yes, there are annual inspections, but as we saw with the burnt out bus incident, the 'inspection consists of an exchange of the readies.

This is second rear end shunt in about a week (the other being the burnt out Mercedes) where the result was devastating due to the fact the truck has an extended rear load bed with no "rear impact guard." They are a serious hazard on Thailand's roads, yet nothing is done about it.

The bus stopped on the right just after the junction. A close study reveals that the door was not closed properly. A gap can be seen at the bottom and I'm pretty sure that there is no door handle on the inside.

Good luck with that mission of yours. I hope all goes well for you and your charge. Take care.

Just google 'limestone cave at Khao Sam Roi Yot'. There are plenty of images that confirm that it is indeed the same site.

I didn't vote because the author of this poll missed the most obvious answer of all. 'I will not be paying income tax in Thailand because my assessable income is below my TEDA therefor no tax is due". And that is probably this answer that applies to the majority of us here.

In a book I had on Traditional Chinese Medicine the following is recommended. 'Chop a clove of garlic and leave it to 'breath' for around 10 minutes, then chew and swallow'. This is necessary because there are 2 elements within the clove that need to be exposed to oxygen so that they can combine and release their healing powers. Swallowing a whole clove will not provide the same benefit. Interesting article on the benefits of garlic here. https://www.hindustantimes.com/lifestyle/health/6-mind-blowing-benefits-of-chewing-raw-garlic-on-an-empty-stomach-101718002056827.html

I love garlic too and it goes into just about every meal I eat. But I only chew it raw on the rare occasions that I have a cold, sore throat or similar. It's a very ancient Chinese remedy which has always worked for me. As far as supplements in general go, IMO they are a waste of money which simply results in expensive urine.

I'm not surprised he 'skipped over' your post. If you want your audience to loose interest fast, write a 230 word post without a single paragraph break! That works.

The former is of interest to all citizens, no matter where they live. Of the latter, there was another petition on this very topic not so long ago. Voter fatigue I think it's known as.

Yes, there are actually 3 petitions running simultaneously, all of which ought to be of interest to us, which is why I brought them to the forum's attention. The one calling for relief from taxing the state pension is of particular interest to me. Not only is my state pension frozen, its taxed as well! A double insult IMO!

You provided the link to the 'acknowledgment' page post signing. But I've just revisited it and I noticed that has a link back to the petition page, but some folks might not notice. No harm in 'belt and braces'. 😀

Another petition that I noted whilst digging out the correct link was this one. Get your marks on that whilst you're at it. Make the state pension tax exempt. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/710017/signatures/new And there's also this one which deserves your attention: Raise the income tax personal allowance from £12,570 to £20,000 https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/702844 No harm in keep snapping at their heels.

The correct link would help! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/704130

Have you seen his birth certificate? CNN say that his birth name is Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelensky. You know different do you? https://edition.cnn.com/2022/03/29/europe/volodymyr-zelensky-fast-facts/index.html

That's a ridicules comparison @impulse. The US certainly was not under existential threat at any time during WW2. Neither were millions of its population displaced or constantly under bombardment and Its infrastructure being destroyed night after night. None of this was ever a problem for the US. How can a Ukraine possibly hold elections under such circumstances?

Head scratcher? Not at all. Customers are more likely to buy a portion of the cake if they think they are getting a bargain. So the shop simply inflates the price of the whole cake by 60 baht. The customer is happy because they've got themselves a bargain (they think) and the shop probably sells more cakes by using this simple marketing ploy. Customers can be very gullible.

I believe it was carrying cigarettes. https://www.nationthailand.com/news/general/40046375

What compulsory health insurance? He's came on a non imm-0. It not required.

How on Earth can they possibly hold elections in the middle of a war? The logistics of doing so make it all but impossible. It is also a well known fact that Russia has interfered with Ukraine's elections in the past in order to promote their favoured candidate and I'm sure they're not above doing so again. And just for the record, Winston Churchill suspended elections during WW2 for similar logistical and disruptive reasons.

What is your home country and what do you mean by 'a small monthly government retirement pension?'

Ivermectin is used in the treatment of nematodes which are intestinal worm infections such as flatworm or eelworm. Yes, liver fluke is a parasite but they are not nematodes , They are trematodes and call for different treatment. As I said, triclabendazole is often prescribed here.

There is a lot less paperwork involved with a retirement extension and it only involves one visit to the immigration office. Would you be using deposit in bank method (800k) or the monthly remittance method 65k/month?

Yes, I raised my eyebrows at that comment too. They do have effective treatment here as long as the infection is identified early enough. A drug called triclabendazole is usually prescribed here. Ivermectin is prescribed for parasitic infections, but not liver fluke as far as I know.
