  1. Milk comes from cows, there is no such thing as "soy milk", that is fraud perpetrated by the manufacturers of that 'drink' made from soy.
  2. SB coffee is rubbish, the prices are rubbish as well. I wouldn't drink it if I was paid.
  3. I was referring specifically to matches. Of course they are training nearly every day at the higher levels, but not 3 matches per week. For sure, recovery from any physical activity as you age is much more difficult.
  4. Even professionals do not play 3 times a week. Furthermore, you can be injured by dirty butchers playing football at anytime. eg. I had my leg broken purposely by an aforementioned butcher because I scored a goal and it was a big final. Some injuries you don't recover from, you're just functional but not the same.
  5. Then instead of making incendiary remarks, explain why you believe that to be the case. If you can't, then maybe it's you that's the contortionist.
  6. Marine 1 and Marine 2 used to be good fun. I also had good fun at the old Insomnia that was not in Walking st, it was up the stairs at the back of Walking St. Anyway, I suppose that's it if Marine isn't coming back or has been taken over by others, they used to play some good tracks, especially Marine 2, and I loved the space/roominess at Marine 2. There's no way I am paying 340 for a beer or 490 for a mixer, I'm not cheap Charlie, I just use common sense.
  7. I asked about a specific travel company and office that appears to have closed. I was wondering about their whereabouts and if they still existed, as they provided excellent service for visa runs to Cambodia, and I had used them several times in the past, they used to be close to the beach entry in Soi Post Office, the post was deleted asserting it was "off topic".
  8. I didn't assert anywhere that because they're a member of SWIFT that it "makes it an international bank". However, since you want to debate whether they are or they are not an international bank and you've been rude about it, any person with an iota of common sense would ask themselves these basic questions. Does this bank have capacity to receive inward remittances from overseas banks? Yes Does this bank have capacity to send outward remittances in foreign currency? Yes. Do they allow foreigners to establish a bank account or facilities with them? Yes. Do they trade in global markets? Yes Do they offer an international guarantee? Yes Do they trade in foreign currencies? Yes Do they offer international L/C's? Yes Yet here you are arguing whether they are an international bank or not. You are obviously clueless on what a bank is, what their operations are, what their compliance rules are etc. I doubt you have worked in the financial industry, hence your complete ignorance on the subject. I really love it when people like you try and assert their knowledge on something they know nothing about, then they use emojis as some sort of slur as you have done to show that you know nothing on the subject. One would also wonder why Krung Thai Bank have offices in Singapore, Mumbai, China, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Cayman Islands, since according to you they are "not factually an international bank". I suggest you look into how banks can be sanctioned when they are operating in foreign countries when they don't comply with laws in regard to money laundering, KYC, etc Better not though, since you're clueless about SOP in banking. Last but not least, according to you "they're not an international bank", one would wonder why they offer the following products, international trade financing services. What would be their purpose of offering international trade finance, since according to you "they're not an international bank".
  9. What makes me know for a fact, not "think" that they are an "international bank" is that I sent money directly there via SWIFT, which is via an MT103 which is an authenticated payment message. So factually yes, they are an international bank with which I've factually received money from one country into another country being Thailand on many occasions. They can also send monies via outward remittance in over 150 currencies. I hope that settles the matter for you. I find it ironic that you used a laughing face when I posted about this.
  10. It is bigoted and discriminatory to assert that a man or a woman should not be driving based on their age. No one knows their state of health and ability to drive. If they still have decent vision and can depress the brake properly they should not be banned just because they're in a certain age bracket.
  11. Just wondering if KTB fall into your above grouping, because I've never had any issues with them so far.
  12. Indonesia is the most populous Muslim country on the face of earth. And you will find that Christians have been attacked, churches targeted, churches bombed etc. These are facts. Constitutionally it may not be an Islamic Republic, but you will rarely find a non Muslim being President of Indonesia. You will also find that most Indonesians vote based on the religious affiliation of politicians. Megawati is an exception, although she had a famous Father.
  13. Have yourself some watermelon juice. I found this to be most helpful when hydrating along with celery juice as it is full of natural minerals. A University of Naples study found that plant chemicals lutein and zeaxanthin - found in fruit such as watermelon and papaya - help hydrate twice as much as water.
  14. The World Cup is on and they offer no flexibility or don't extend hours, it's plain stupidity. It benefits these businesses who did it so tough through the Covid authoritarian lockdowns. Instead, they took them to the station for charges. Totally ridiculous and clueless.
  15. This is not a stereotypical comment, as I've heard it in multiple Asian countries. I am not asserting all Asians assert this, but many I have heard do. "You farang, you rich", "you bule, you rich", "you foreigner, you rich". The other thing is that you just can't leave properties unattended irrespective of where you live in the world. If you've got reliable trustworthy neighbours who you have good relationships with then that is another thing, and even then the criminals can try and get in through the roof if it's tiled. There's no way I could leave a property unattended for 5 months and think that I am going to come back to it without anything being disturbed/stolen in the world we live in, but I suppose it depends on the relevant country and what sort of area the house is situated in to some degree.
