i know why people come to thailand
ivor bigun replied to yogi yogi's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
My mechanic comes to our house picks up the car and delivers it back ,checks the car free if we go to his garage ,a full service costs about 700 baht ,oil extra , we purchased a new water heater the other week ,we beat the instalers back home by about 20 mins ,they fitted it took away the old one ,all free ,in England it would have cost more for the fitting than the heater. -

Yes health insurance is a scam in Thailand
ivor bigun replied to Pravda's topic in Insurance in Thailand
When i came here 16 yrs ago ,i applied for health insurance ,i had had heart problems in my 30s so they were not covered ,plus some other things not covered and they wanted 39k a month , i didnt bother,so far the premiums if they had stayed the same (unlikely) i would have paid 624000k. last year had a minor heart attack ,1 night in private 52k .then with all my tests and another 2 stays in hospital(govt) 6 nights in all plus an angiogram and scan and x ray plus all my meds for the last year about 80k ,so so far winning . ps as i do have a pink card i was told i pay Thai price . -
It’s expats, not tourists that are visiting Thailand: Business leader
ivor bigun replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News

Correct Transam ,its about God,i just cannot understand how with so much knowledge in the world about the origins of man and how planets are formed ,how anyone can believe that God created it and that his son was born on our planet out of all the billions in the univereses. mind you it must be great to believe that when you die you will see all your loved ones ,.but then as i have been married a few times and have a mother and a stepmother ,it might get a bit crowded at our eventual reunion ..
