  1. I understand getting rid of US citizenship is difficult. This would be a quick fix for those who want to get rid of it.
  2. Something nasty got washed into the river, that's for sure. Businesses got affected too, not "just" wild-life fish, so might there be an investigation?
  3. I hate the visa agency or Immigration stapling loads of papers into my passport. I remove the papers and scan them into my smartphone.
  4. It certainly applies to desserts as well. Thai desserts are revoltingly sweet. It also applies to many imported items like yogurt. I've bought some yogurts labelled "natural" only to throw them in a rage into the garbage can because they were full of added sugar. Many types of what passes for bread here has added sugar in it. The best side of food in Thailand for me is that it encourages me to eat little.
  5. Same happening sometimes on my MacBook. I found out it was sometimes struggling while streaming. Resetting the browser helped each time but some settings got lost.
  6. Tons of sugar, tons of salt, high in spices, low in proteins.
  7. Has anyone had one of these successfully removed in Bangkok or Pattaya? It is very minor surgery but it requires some delicate stitching all the same so that a scar worse than the original cyst doesn't develop.
  8. If it's just learning a couple of words (in their context), I recommend this channel. Words explained with pictures and used in simple sentences. Plenty of repetition for reinforcement.
  9. Rent there for a couples of months and see what issues crop up.
  10. People who try to closely time the market (whether stocks or currency) end up losing. If you see a good rate or a good price, go for it.
  11. Getting the rabies vaccine with a booster every 4 years brings some peace of mind regarding dogs.
  12. I also have assets both in Thailand and in an EU country. Will the EU country be content to leave my Thai assets alone, ie to be taxed with inheritance tax in Thailand, then distributed to my heirs in Thailand ? I suspect not. The EU country will want to lump all my assets (EU + Thai) and levy an inheritance tax on the whole. And this will probably lead to an international legal mess ending up in all my assets being frozen for years. I've seen it happen between two neighbouring EU countries, it should be much worse when an exotic country is involved.
  13. When I read "nazi" I think "there we go again", and I don't need to read the rest of the rant.
  14. The problem in the non-US west is not paying heating bills over the winter. Families will survive. Families don't go bankrupt. The problem is economy collapse and deindustrialisation. Zero own energy ressources. Not allowed to get energy from Russia. Not allowed to get energy from Iran. When continental Europe goes down, which should be only a question of months now, the savings of many expats will go to.
  15. Bus 999 from Ekamai.
  16. No need to reimburse. I thought you were a private member answering a private question though. Now am I to understand you are a seller? Confusing.
  17. I bought these gummies yesterday. Absolutely no effect. Zippo. Nil.
  18. I don't think you'd be better off in Thailand. You'd die a slower death that's all.
