  1. I haven't found any Keto diet friendly restaurants in Pattaya. The major issue with most restaurants in Thailand is that one or more of the following is in the meal or dish: sugar, starch, syrups, honey, MSG, wheat or seed oils, or that it has been fried in oil that is too old.
  2. This is irrelevant. This discussion is about Thai banks, not US banks.
  3. We met on on Thaifriendly 15 years ago.
  4. Any gifts given to any person who is the President of The United States of America are gifts given to the President and as such, are gifts to United States, not personal gifts, given to the person. The State Department should retain title to the gifts, and the gifts should remain property of the State, not of the person temporarily occupying a government position.
  5. What city did your friend find the $8 hotel room?
  6. Plant is now fully operational, loading first commercial cargo this week. No BS. This first phase produces 14M tons per year of LNG, second phase is looking for new customers, which will double capacity to 28 million tons per year. No sense in waiting for Alaska LNG https://www.thefreepress.ca/news/lng-canada-produces-first-commercial-ready-liquefied-natural-gas-8089444 https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-lng-canada-liquefied-natural-gas-shipment-asia/ https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/bc-premier-david-eby-celebrates-production-start-at-lng-canada-plant-in-kitimat/ar-AA1HuZYZ https://www.langleyadvancetimes.com/news/lng-canada-produces-first-commercial-ready-liquefied-natural-gas-8089444
  7. See for yourself; https://www.lngcanada.ca/who-we-are/about-lng-canada/ LNG Canada will export Canadian natural gas to Asian markets, putting Canada on the global map of LNG exporting countries and creating a world-leading LNG industry in British Columbia and Canada. Using LNG from B.C. has the potential to greatly reduce those countries’ greenhouse gas emissions, resulting in significant net global greenhouse gas reductions while significantly improving air quality. Through a combination of energy efficient natural gas turbines and renewable electricity from BC Hydro, our project will emit less than half the greenhouse gas emissions of the average LNG facility currently in operation. LNG Canada operates in an environment of continuous and demonstrable improvement. We work with governments to develop innovative policy solutions that position B.C. and Canada as leaders in energy development, reconciliation and environmental stewardship.

  8. Thailand should also look at Canada. LNG Canada, on the west coast, phase 1 will begin shipping later this year. Multiple other LNG plants on Canada's west coast are currently being built or are under consideration, and will be built far before anything emerges from Alaska. Phase 2 is looking for new customers. During winter, lots of icebergs near Alaska's port that can delay shipping.
  9. Those rare earths are also used by hundreds of electric vehicle manufacturers like BYD, mostly Chinese manufacturers. The old Chinese slogan applies "get the money and get out".
  10. Sad to hear you are still following the "standard of care" model of health care where the medical practitioner/doctor prescribes treatment for the symptom, not the root cause of your condition. Look on the internet, youtube, there are ways to avoid rosacea and perhaps eliminate its re-occurance forever. Try searching youtube with Dr. Berg, or Dr. Ekberg or Dr. William Davis, and rosacea. I am not a medical doctor nor am I dispensing medical advice.
  11. I recommend 22c for the most frequently used rooms and 28C for the other rooms.
  12. Hungry hippo 239b roast beef, Soi Buakhow near tree town
  13. Immigration certainly know the names, passport details, photos and finger prints of the over stayers. Run one query against their database and have the answer back in an hour ( depending on the computer system ). They probably have the query already programmed, with detailed breakdowns by country passport, number in Thailand, number authorized for 60 days, number over stayed based on 60 days, etc. etc. As for foreigners owning businesses in Thailand, just go to the Ministry that registers the companies and directors, run a query against their database, and identify all directors without Thai Id numbers. Then go and visit the non-Thai directors, based on last location from immigration database. Of course a lot of data may not be up to date, and many small businesses may not be registered. But the database probably does contain the big fish, so fry the big ones first. Also fry the lawyers or consultants who assisted in establishing the nominee companies for foreigners. When one of these consultants is found, go through their files and bank accounts, to find other foreigners running companies. Nothing complicated here. I am just wondering who is benefiting from not doing the work or who has been blocking the work?
