So nothing much has changed...

Wonder if he loses his licence?

Didn't think so...

Maybe use the time to work on accreditations that actually mean something and demonstrate thier abilities. 

Paracetamol won't fix all ailments.

But I’ve seen many groups of nurses treating patients in Soi Cowboy

Ride em cowboy..

No more washing cars and doing gardening for the big boys.

No more confiscated id cards and the grown ups keeping the 6000 baht monthly pays.

And sending them home. 

My partners son did five months out of two years. 

His friend was found dead in the kitchen for going AWOL. 

Petchabun..

Time for changes

This is Thailand. 

Some mentally disturbed people here.

(Like many other countries)

But when wife beating is a pastime..

Nothing surprising anymore. 

One way to avoid military service 

Walk into several immigration offices and they will do the full job on the spot. 

(Seriously)

Jomtien. 

Buriram. Etc.

My last one took 30 minutes. 

From non o to additional one year extension. 

All funding satisfied. 

Some immigration are removing the agents. 

About 28k if an agent did the lot.

From a 30 day or TR 60.

Regulations also say any bank can be used.

But..

There's no prostitution in Thailand. 

Brings gutter crawling to a different level. 

Why doesn't this surprise me?

$$$$$

Click bait. The Baht had been strengthening for days already, and on Monday morning it increased a whopping 0.4% over the previous day. Today it has already inched back.

22.5 to the Australian $.

Err right..

That's totally unamazing.

" But, with Parliamentary rules written by the military junta, no coalition is certain just yet in Thailand."

While anything is possible in Thai politics, I highly doubt that any skullduggery will take place this time. The people have spoken; they just wouldn't stand for it.

Plenty of pay for votes in the local villages. 

Perhaps Prayut was saving his accumulated wealth?

There is not a big bus or train that goes to chonburi from Pattaya.

There's newish 20 seaters.

Not the flying coffins...

Even the big buses will stop where ever you ask them..

Sweet FA.

Just show me the money...

This means 93% of all Thai beer is rubbish. No argument from me. Anything half decent in the other 7% is expensive. 

They taste like p*ss water and then they put ice in.

A few, very few, decent tasting ones are rare, and expensive.

Public or government hospitals sometimes have higher charges for foreigners.

Some years ago I was bitten by a dog so off I went to Pattaya City hospital for a rabies rabies jab, I needed a course of 4 and I was charged around 500 Baht per jab at Pattaya City hospital.

I was away in Buriram when my third jab was due so I went to the government hospital there where I was charged the princely sum of 20 Baht.

Go figure ,that is some differential between two government hospitals.

I use Nangrong which is part of Buriram. 

No charge the previous visit. 

Just 320 for the mega supply of meds

I've used pattaya public a few times.

They will elevate prices for farang. 

Even requiring a deposit before treatment. 

CT scans and tests They certainly cream you on.

Currently in Nangrong and use the public hospital for more serious medical treatment. 

Serious guttate psoriasis outbreak 2 weeks ago. 

About one hour wait. 

Doctor was first class.

Heaps of meds given. 

Antibiotics prednisolone antihistamines and 20 tubes of cortisol type cream. 

Total cost 320 baht.

I'm registered with the hospital. 

But no actual charge for the service.

Here is another example of many why I would NEVER consider living long term in Thailand.

Have to admit that post covid19 there seems to be a hike in the dash for cash grabs.

If the bar girls don't get you (prostitutes) the BIB will $$$

Pre Songkran tea money raising. 

They don't want to get wet at party time.

Inept is the word that comes to mind.

Two pieces of paper don't make it user safe.

The brown envelope does that.
