Just checked Malignant Hyperthermia. So a few questions. Did the patient know he had this illness ? If he did , did he tell the Clinic he was suffering from this? If he had, the clinic would have used a different anesthetic . If he didn’t know, then he couldn’t have told the Clinic. So I suppose that a hospital insurance would have covered this “ accident” . I’d add that sometimes a nose operation is done to help with polypes and breathing difficulties.

But how would you, or anyone , know you had this illness ? Does it come out on a health check ? Doubt it.

You are disgusting, a creep.

Unfortunately most are stuck in Bangkok which is extremely hot and polluted as you know. The Emirates office is choc a bloc since 10 days.they work on a ticket number system, and to be honest they are working very hard. Most people wait 2 whole days before their ticket number comes up, It’s slackening off now.

There haven’t been any flight through ME except some exceptions/ repatriation.But not for the average tourist. What you see on the internet are pipe dreams. Flights say they are leaving/ available up until the last minute. I was looking at these flights WITH the emirates office who were searching for seats. As the days to go on and more tourists arrive at Bangkok to go home, the worst it gets. They are still working on delays of the first 4 days of March. Lots of available flights mean going to Singapore or KL or China. Some companies have doubled+ their prices. So it’s not so easy, and not everyone stuck is NOT on a shoe string, but have obligations at home, some are elderly, and hanging round Bangkok 2 weeks + isn’t fun either. Some have kids. So don’t bother insulting waiting passengers, go back to your bar stools,

I have never in 40 years seen so many idiots, louts, drunks and drugged, crazies and bizarre behavior, as in the last few years. I believe it’s due to cannabis being made legal , and publicized all over the world that Thailand is a free for all . You think that it’s only cannabis on sale in the cannabis shops ?

I agree , there are all sorts of visas but highly impractical, or, too expensive. But, seems Thailand is not very clever enough to sort it all out.

Jomtien changed when the Russians took over. I will add that lots of these are unfortunate Thais who sleep out are actually those employed by the council to sweep and clean !!! Shocked me.

Personally as a snowbird since 1984, I have never had an awkward entry into Thailand , even with multiple visas and extensions. But I have never overstayed or gone over the limit. I’ve seen some of the types that do get stopped, and I do understand that a lot of dubious people try to get through. Lots of these are Indian and Cambodian people already working in Thailand or on a try out. These are weeded out as they are all over the world. I may get shouted at for this, but there are a lot of foreigners just milking the system and staying until they are thrown out. Thailand has been much too generous with their visa options which are covering for practically living here. Also , Since the freedom given to all the cannabis aficionados, the place has become a dumping place for drop outs and idiots. All these strange people running naked and others lying in the streets is the outcome. It needs to be toned down. They need to revise the visa entry obligations.

This one I hope I won’t miss. How she can be attorney General I really don’t know. She will lie for Trump, and be paid handsomely .

Why not get a departure fast track , online , just look it up. With wheelchair.His daughter will be with him, so I doubt very much there’ll be a problem. He’ll have the wheelchair to the door of the plane, then must be able to walk to his seat.

Didn’t know you went back. I thought you were still in Laos or Myanmar ? I knew you from north Phuket , Bang Tao ?, many years ago. I lived in Kata during winter, snowbird.

They’re full too this week. And for holiday families in Thailand nearly impossible to manage.

Not only come to thailand, what about the people that have their flights canceled and can’t get a flight back, For most it’s urgent to leave , lots are families of 4 and more, impossible to find seats. So the most have to pay hotels in Bangkok or Phuket while waiting to be helped by their airlines. Costing a lot, and leaving bad memories of their holidays in Thailand, but accepting its no one’s fault but the madman Trump and his best mate Nettie.With all flights over Middle East canceled there are thousands still waiting a date. Go it alone, and it will cost you a fortune.

Bangkok full of tourists waiting for flights , but less and less arrivals. It will empty soon enough over next 2 weeks. Except for those lovely Chinese and Russians.

He will get his new future flight with no loss of money from his booked company.

Eat it and tell us. I wouldn’t. Often left out for everyone to touch , breathe on , and temperature not respected.

Yes, and why did they take him to Patong Hospital which isn’t the best choice for such a bad beating.?? He might have had a chance in a better hospital .

Im a Brit but have never waited to enter at any UK airport. Heathrow is easy and cases come through fast on the belt. France is a pain even with residents.

PS. Forgot to mention where we make the most money apart from our French wine and alcohols: Singa Beer Fresh fruit and vegetables delivery twice a week. ( thailand /vietnam).

Having been in the restaurant business all my life, I’ve seen the price of rice escalate whereas the Cambodian and Vietnam rice is selling very well at stable prices. Considering that in France there are thousands of Asian restaurants , ( 150+ in Nice alone) the demand is great. Not counting the USA and rest of Europe. Now the main importers are pushing the Cambodian rice so they are obviously making more profit. I’ve used all 3 ,and they are good. I’ve also noticed lots of the packed products and tins / bottled ( bamboo / chile sauces / juices, lychees) are coming from,Vietnam. Thailand had better get their calculator out. Fast.

Who hasn’t put something down in your own home and searched and searched for it ? Then you find it in the most unlikely places !

One can stay 90days on a Tourist Visa, 60+ 30 extension. You can stay 60 days Visa Exempt ,and extend 30 days at immigration. You are still a Tourist. Both classify you as a Tourist..

He states he is a tourist ! We used to say long Stay . He’s not sleeping on the beach . Does that annoy you?

Exactly. I have been director of a seasonal business in the south of France since 1980. As I had 4 months winter holiday, I traveled a lot. Discovered Thailand in 1984. Mostly Phuket at that time in my life. Made a lot of friends there in the same situation as myself. I was lucky to rent a beautiful condo near the beach, one of the only that existed at that time, I would say apartment. The owner was abroad and had 2 of them. I ate everyday in a restaurant, went on trips elsewhere , north Thailand and whatever other islands that were reachable at the time. Extended my stay in Phuket town . Also did outside trips to Singapore , Malaysia and Myanmar and further. Japan , Australia, Ceylon. My friends did similar, mostly retired, but not all. A few are still there. Personally I don’t think we did anything wrong, never had a problem, never broke any laws, and spent a lot of money in Thailand too. Not as cheap Charlie’s as we call them. Most of us had double entry stamps. Nowadays there are many many retired snowbirds who have bought condos , and also stay only through the western winter, especially Scandinavians. They don’t need or want a retirement visa , or a DTV . Neither do I. So what sort of Visa will be offered to those , who have invested in condos ? Will the METV or something else fit the purpose, time will tell. But for those who say people only « need » 2 or 3 weeks holiday , it’s not true . And we’re not stuck on bar stools either.
