Thai Doctor Accused of Using Hot Water on Child as Treatment
They showed the boy on Thai news on TV without being blurred out. The burns were very severe. Covered over 50% of his chest. I wonder if this guy has a medical license?

Dealing with the dishonesty of Lazada
You just request a return based on the wrong item sent as soon as you get it. The vendor has 3 days to respond. If they don't Lazada automatically processes the return. The refund is processed once they recieve your return. Make sure to take photos when you get the item and a screenshot of their conversation would be good too.

Kiwi Tourist Found Dead in Kata Beach Hotel Room
Timeline seems kind of weird if they both returned to the hotel at 1:00 am. She died around 7am. He reported it to the hotel around 2:30 pm. I guess they could of stayed up all night and fell asleep in the morning and he didn't wake up until the afternoon.

Getting your Omega 3 fatty acids in Thailand
parsley It could perhaps also be celery but I hear that called bai tang o all the time. The thai celery is different from foreign celery. For one thing the leafs are not bitter.

Stuck in Visa Loop: Can't Open Thai Bank Account or Convert Tour
I'm pretty sure Ratchaburi does. Though I have never tried it. ( I did try one year not doing a deposit on the exact day and had to go back to the bank, make a deposit, update the bank book and get a new letter.) This January when I did my extension two of the officers were having a discussion on whether they should accept my bank statement because it didn't show the 1,000 baht deposit for that day. They for sure want an entry in the bank book for that day showing the balance. SCB has always told me that the bank statement can't show anything for the current day.

Renew driving licence
Before the DLT elearning only worked if you had a Thai ID. But it now works for foreigners using a passport number. There is an English option for the videos but it is just subtltles. Had to answer 4 multiple choice questions at the end. The video runs in multiple parts and lasts about a hour. You can pause it. It tries to be humerous. Ones I had: How many people die in road accidents every day? Ans: 60 What is the safe following distance in rain? Ans: double the normal safe distance (which in the video is stated as leaving a 3 second space between the car ahead of you) The other 2 I don't remember as well. One was about what do do driving thru a curve and I think the other one was about correct braking procedure.

Obtaining Driving Licence Phuket
Glad I live in Ratchaburi. Renewed my 5 year license yesterday. Walked into immigration without an appointment and got the certificate in about 15 minutes. Went to DLT without an appointment and waited about 10 minutes to do the vision/reaction tests. (I had done the course at DLT-elearning before hand. About an hour watching videos and 4 questions to answer at the end.)
