  1. Interesting stuff. Or how long they should continue to wear one. A disposable mask lasts 1 day max.
  2. I saw a program on Channel News Asia a couple of years back. The presenter went to a lab to test the effectiveness of wearing a mask. It was shown that without a mask, a sneeze or cough would expel droplets around 6 to 8 feet. With a mask on, the droplets were confined to around one foot. It has always been my honest opinion that the main purpose of wearing a mask is to reduce the chance of spreading a virus to someone else as opposed to preventing an individual from catching the virus from someone else. That program was just a general investigation and covid wasnt mentioned at all.
  3. If the world is going to end in 2030, he might as well buy a new car cos he cant take his money with him.
  4. I see that there are a few different views about what the TRD intentions are. The above quote says "for example". My (hopeful) take on this is that it would be an ongoing thing. Thus money earned in subsequent years would be subject to the same criteria. EG money earned in 2028 would be tax free if remitted in the same year or 2029. Fingers crossed.
  5. Bangkok Hospital Pattaya has been advertising MOHS on their website recently.
  6. Is that from CNN, MSDNC or direct from Victoria Nuland? I'm not a big fan of Oliver Stone as a documentarian but watch his 2016 movie "Ukraine on Fire". Don't watch it for his analysis. Watch it for the historical facts he presents. This kerfuffle didn't start in 2022 or 2014. It was decades in the making. I agree with you. I havent seen the movie you mention. However, a book caught my eye in the Asia Books store in Pattaya. It is called "Overreach" and written by Owen Matthews. The book got good reviews and reveals a lot of historical events that have led up to the current situation. I havent read it all yet, it takes some digesting, but some may be interested in getting insight on the political skullduggery that has occurred in Ukraine, and the former USSR and its components. 522 baht.
  7. They came in from Macau. Very likely they were there to gamble in the casinos. The Chinese are fearless gamblers and there is naff all else to do in Macau.
  8. Not quite. I have yet to see people lobbing Christmas puddings at each other.
  9. Wallets are easy too easy to steal without the owner realising. I never use one.
  10. In the world of high stakes drug dealing, what do you think happens to people who cant pay their debts? A kiss on the cheek ?
  11. Possibly doesnt care. Got plenty of money. I would be interested to know the backdrop. Just speculating of course. The whole plan seemed irrational.
  12. Maybe that was their sponsors plan all along. They owed money. He wanted rid of them.
  13. Royal Physiotherapy Clinic Pattaya. www.physiotherapistpattaya.com . Worth a visit. On 3rd road near to the old Tonys gym. They used to have another premises on soi khao noi.
  14. Tops supermarket, Central Festival Pattaya yesterday. Square tiramisu cake over 600 baht. A single portion, quite clearly a quarter of the large one, 135 baht. 135 x4 = 540. Head scratcher.
  15. I agree. It may also be that some of the more established members of old look at the forum but dont actually log in. Perhaps fed up with the abuse or being unintentionally sucked into arguments. Lots of amusing stuff posted on the Worst Joke thread.
