They probably confused it with Bovril, which is meat-based.

Down under or Thai? Aussie mum trades Oz for Land of Smiles
Lacessit replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I read a statistic somewhere that said Western couples coming to Thailand to live divorce 50% of the time. If true, that's a very high level. -
You seem to be confusing feminism and acknowledgment of female attributes. There is no doubt men are superior in some sports, such as swimming, golf, track and tennis. Women can perform better at gymnastics, due to better flexibility. The thread is not about whether physical attributes are required for the Presidency. It's about intelligence. There is no statistically significant difference in IQ between men and women. There is a statistically significant difference in IQ between MAGA supporters and Americans as a whole. IMO there's nothing that disqualifies either Hillary Clinton or Kamala Harris from the Presidency, but it's well known America is slow to catch up to the rest of the world.

The Melbourne Cup is one of the most prestigious events in horse racing. Jockeys compete for the chance to ride in it. A jockey needs to be made of leather and iron, with a steely will to win. It's 45 kg of jockey balancing on and controlling an animal ten times their body mass. In 2015, Michelle Payne piloted Prince of Penzance to win the Melbourne Cup. Rachael Blakemore has won the Cheltenham Gold Cup. Ever noticed white male supremacists share the Taliban's view on women?

Banking service???????
Lacessit replied to Lacessit's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Chiang Rai Immigration requires the bank letter, a six month statement, and the passbook updated on the day of application. Signed photocopies of every page of the bank book. YMMV indeed. -

I have a pink Thai ID card. Can I use that, or do I need to register the card to that account with the bank first? -
Water testing service - weird stuff in bottle of water
Lacessit replied to Airwolf's topic in Chiang Mai
Don't bother testing, it is obviously contaminated. Most universities have laboratory facilities, and more likely to have English speakers. -
As most people on visa extensions know, Immigration requires the deposit passbook showing 800K or 400K baht is updated on the day they apply. Last year, updating was simple. Go to the Cash Deposit Machine ( CDM ), key in the passbook account number, and deposit cash. I keep it simple, 1000 baht. Usually there at 6 am or 7 am. Then go to the passbook update machine, I have an updated balance on the day, ready for Immigration. This year, no can do. The CDM won't accept the account number. It demands either a physical debit/credit card, or an OTP sent to a banking app. Both of which I don't want and don't need for that account, which has stayed at 800K for over 10 years. Why should I pay 300 baht for a card i will use once a year? Or have an insecure banking app on my phone? Now, I have to wait until the bank opens, join other customers, and waste my time, and a bank tellers', in doing something that took me about two minutes outside banking hours. Just as well I checked the system a couple of weeks before my extension falls due. Is this your idea of service, Bangkok Bank?

For about 10,000 years, carbon dioxide levels have been constant at 280 ppm. They started rising at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. This is what has been happening since 1960. As far catastrophic damage goes, check out planet Venus, over 90% carbon dioxide. The atmosphere is hot enough to melt lead.

I used to drink for the buzz I got from 3-4 drinks. I have always liked a good shiraz, paired with an eye fillet steak, medium. I gave up drinking about 18 months ago. It would have been foolish to drink with the cocktail of meds I had to take at the time. Most people don't know combining alcohol with paracetamol, a very common medication, can result in serious liver damage. I know the buzz I would get from drinking would now be offset by getting up 5-6 times in the night for a pee, not worth it anymore.

Scientific fact - women are more tolerant of extremes of heat and cold than men. They have a layer of subcutaneous fat which men don't have, which insulates them. They are physically superior to men in terms of flexibility, endurance, and balance. They can endure pain. If men had to give birth, homo sapiens would die out. They have stronger immune systems. They are far better at networking than most men. It's amusing to watch you display your utter ignorance on ASEAN, You really belong back in the Middle Ages. Take a look at this video, then tell me of any man who is capable of doing what Shenea Booth does. 3 minutes 30 seconds.

Thailand's Cashless Leap: Ahead of the Asean Pack by 2028
Lacessit replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
My internet service regularly goes down at noon for about ten minutes, and sometimes late in the afternoon. Maybe it's a switch to another server.
