A few weeks ago I was there when a large tree blew down, the next day they had trimmed the remaining trees a bit too much, and now several of them are dead too.

How do your apparently 'funny' (judged by the claqueurs) statements coincide with reality, see the photos taken late this afternoon? 

Asking the workers, the motive for the 'works' remains not understandable - or does someone know what 'because linding' means?  Otherwise, they refer to a big boss. 

On the last photo, the organisation of the workers can be seen. Why doesn't this blog call them and ask for an explanation? I may be old-fashioned, but isn't that what journalism is all about? And I sent you this suggestion twice already, via Twitter. 

Meanwhile also at Jomtien Beach (Dongtan): 'They' continue to fell trees, the centre being between Rabbi Resort and the 2nd toilet building. But trees outside these limits are not safe, either. Wouldn't it be an idea to report on this, too?

If he organised something like these americans, he might have their 'success story'

Instead of allowing a few overburdened politicians, acting below dubious (corrupt?) advisors, to override land & people, form an executive council where all relevant parts of society participate (fx law, economy, education, dissenting medics) to take covid-related decisions! 
 

Yes. It is so critical that they now felt they had to close also the sea for individual swimmers, while beach promenade walkers continue to be fine. Not to mention the ongoing tennis players in the condo, while its swimming pool had to be closed. Looks more like there's someone in the pecking order who hates swimming.

Visacrack , there are many cases of healthy athletes having damage to their heart.  Many long haulers.  I can't let you spread false info.

 

Am I the only one to see that your argument doesn't hold water? I talked about average people, you countered with competitive athletes. My kind of people do not risk to get the diseases you invoked. Talking about 'spreading false info'  .) 
 

If an intelligent covid approach has no chance to be implemented in the developped world, due to rampant irrationality among the powers that be, why should we expect something different of this country? 

To avoid missunderstandings: An intelligent approach would take for granted that covid is a flu variation and should be treated accordingly. Those people not having excess body fat (due to low-carb nutrition and regular exercise - thus a fully working immune system and no lifestyle diseases) will have no problem to defeat any covid attack within days. Global vax campaigns are a dead-end road, to say the least. 

To me it seems the gov elites are ignorant and dependent of the powerlusty medicine men, who in turn are steered by their world-domination seeking svengalis (WEF & co)...
 

I would be happy if they started to find a way to treat the human faeces from Koh Larn before it enters the sea (and if through some kind of liquidation), which much of the time have a tendency to arrive at Songtarn beach, in more or less recognisable state - all depending on prevailing wind direction, and how powerful the waves are on a given day (heavier waves = smaller bits). Especially during times when the the swimming pools in the condos are locked, and in order to keep us health swimmers safe from infection, I hear. 

How did you find my query? It hasn't been published yet. Are you a 'moderator'? Why can't it be published?

Sigh. Whatever happened to liberty, in this case individual responsibility and my personal choice? 'Authority knows best' what is good for you, seems to be the underlying logic. 

Thus no cheap and easy way out then...

I do not normally take any medication, but recently a doc at one of the hospitals recommended that I have some ordinary sleeping pills, to help me sleeping with shorter (not fewer!) prostate-owed interruptions. Unfortunately, otherwise pervasive Rezum *) has still not been approved in Thailand, so the cause must remain untreated as long as we're locked in - honi soit qui mal y pense  .) So I asked him to give me a small bag, assuming I would get more (if/when needed), and for less, at a pharmacy, upon presenting the labelled hospital bag. 

Today would have been restocking day, but all the pharmacist said upon reading the label on my plastic bag was that he didn't have it and wouldn't get it either. The only way would be to go back to the hospital, where it costs about twice of what they charge in average european countries. Plus, I will probably need another redundant dr consultation liable to fees. 

This looks like a real mess now. Would there be any other feasible options so far unknown to me - beyond having it sent from back home?

See https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-steam-treatment-for-enlarged-prostate/ And it's not suppoed to cost some 30'000 USD (see Mayo) but below 2'000 https://www.medgadget.com/2016/11/nxtheras-rezum-provides-new-treatment-option-patients-bph-interview-ceo-nxthera.html It seems urologists are not prepared yet to pass on scientific progress to the patient without making sure they get their cut that comes with the traditional and gory interventions.

Maybe this will help you figure it out.

 

11,500 dead worldwide from Ebola over a two year period.

 

2,151,883 dead worldwide from Covid -19 over a one year period and another year yet to go.

Just happened to see your response. You haven't forgotten that ebola appears in a very limited region of the world only, while covid is global?

Remember hook line & sinker? Doh!

Just as a reminder: With covid, we're in fact talking about some kind of flu, not fx a kind of ebola - provided you keep your body fat in check through proper diet and regular exercise. Without excess fat, your immune system will be able to defeat the attack; plus, you won't suffer life-style diseases like diabetes or high blood pressure (so-called precondition).  

Still they treat it as if it were something like ebola. Go figure...

And sometime later, some tests will see a few more people test positive, and they will lockdown again. Then it will ease, then sometime later they will do some more tests and see a few more people test positive, and they will lockdown again. Then it will ease again, then ......

 

For ever and ever, amen.

 

 

You're right. Reminds me of John Cleese in The Out-of-Towners, where he 'explains the rest of your life in 2 minutes' (to an employee who had just flopped). BTW this is not a literal quote, just the gist of it. 

Another example: A few months earlier, when the last lockdown was active, I managed to get the pool in our condo reopened. I showed that the american CDC doesn't consider pools problematic, and I partially refuted the official sanuk-socialiser theorists by suggesting to open them only to serious swimmers (not splashers & co), plus separate them if necessary - like opening 3 only of 7 available lanes, and staggering the swimmers timewise (swimmer 1 from min 00 to 30, 2 from 10 to 40, 3 from 20 to 50, etc). After a few days of face-saving manoeuvres, the pool was reopened. 

I also emphasised the importance little body fat has on the functioning of one's immune system: Yes, covid is like flu if your immune system works at full capacity, ie isn't busy repairing cell damage caused by improper diet. To achieve that, next to a proper diet (like low-carb), exercise is essential. But this time it seems, the globalist svengalis have managed again to use their local lemmings for another hysteric outbreak, aided by thai uncritical trust in hierarchy. 

My condo is run by a well-known, Bangkok-based property management business. So they got the ukas to close their pools - provided (NB - NB - NB) that their pool is public. Of course it isn't: No outsider is allowed on the premises because he wants to swim in the pool. It is private and can therefore remain open. But maybe they should get back to my suggestion to make sure that only real swimmers use it. 

So they had a margin of discretion which they could and should have used wisely, and again all they did was playing it more-than-safe from their very narrow legal viewpoint. And the local condo admin just followed suit. And again without the slightest consideration for the people who bring the money. Even worse, if you manage to work your way throrugh their system and start to make a difference inside their political hierarchy, indirect threats start (cancelled visa & co) to be rumoured. Thais should really comprehend that some of our thinking is worth considering for themselves. At least whenever they deal with us.

It IS a Covid surcharge.

Explained here in the pdf from thaipost:

https://file.thailandpost.com/upload/content/_Surcharge - ENG_5f6da0728024a.pdf

In effect since October.

Thank you! It would however be interesting to know how they justify such a seemingly exorbitant rate...

Registered offers two extra 'addon services'

  1) the standard orange 'advice of receipt' card for 20 baht

  2) a SURCHARGE for 40 baht

 

I suspect SURCHARGE is now mandatory to cover extra covid handling.

Could be. I wrote to them, let's see if they're ready to share their thoughts with us  .)

Probably the charge for wiping down with disinfectant. A nice little earner.

So am I the first to whom this has happened? I made it clear that I did not consider this appropriate, and that I would not just accept my fate   .)

Today I sent 2 registered letters to the european theatre. I expected to pay a little over two hundred baht, but was surprised to hear that it would cost me 322 THB. 

Upon checking the slip, I saw that on top of the postage (121 THB), another 40 THB were charged. I asked what it was and heard it was a 'covid surcharge'. I asked to explain in details, with the foreseeable result. 

Are the some people here who would know more? 

The title is another piece of evidence for anglo-autistic folly: The global standard for speed and its notation is km/h, not 'kph'. While I understand that you tend to create an analogical form to what you're used to, you should also understand that the way forward for you is not more fumbling but a clean new start. This wouldn't exclude further use on a lower level of what you're used to. Why should the world's civilised majority put up with the antics of/adapt to a somewhat retarded bully? 

This is the sign language of power. Read: We (who are in the know) expect to have the plebs vaccinated during '21 (because otherwise they won't travel), such that by '22 we can start to resume our lives as we mean to remember - only now bio-controlled. Welcome to the NWO.
