And Western Churches are better? I think not. People are people. With so many Monks out and about in public, it will happen. It sounds like appropriate measures are being taken.

Extremely unlikely at that time. We agree on that, right?

Heart Attack is a general term that does not indicate any specific form of Cardiac Arrest.

It is extremely unlikely that they would have had a heart attack had the accident not occurred. Therefore, the death is caused by the accident. Right?

Cardiac means what? Heart, right? Arrest means what? To stop, right? In the amount of time since the accident and the post I responded too, that would be all the information a journalist would know to report. If it were a blockage or something else, they would have to cut the body open and do a full report to determine that. All we can possibly know is their heart stopped and they are dead.

But the journalist who reported what you say they reported could not know why the reason why the heart stopped. So the kind of Cardiac Arrest could not be dermined in the amount of time since the accident and your post. And technically. Cardiac means Heart and Arrest means stop. So... In any case, the person is dead because of the accident. Perhaps if they knew they had a bad heart, they know how to control their condition. The accident takes control away from them.

I have not heard that report. It is possible, I suppose, but still not related to failure to wear a seat belt during landing. And, if true, the Heart Attack is due to the accident anyway. Btw, the official name of a Heart Attack is Cardiac Arrest. Which just means the heart stopped. Yes, normally, death will cause the heart to stop. It is far to soon to say the heart stopped due to a bad heart. Whomever reported that could not know. Although this was obviously an accident and apparently the Pilots did a good job getting the jet on the ground, there are still people who want to defend Singapore Air and blame the passengers.

How do you know that? No, it was no reported. If true, then it wasn't the result of not wearing a seatbelt during landing, was it?

I was referring to the words in the article. Before landing, while in flight, passengers are not required to wear seatbelts and can move around. For example, to use the restroom. The turbulence happend "suddenly" in midair. -Not- during landing. They were supposed to land in Singapore, not Bangkok. So obviously, the injuries were due to the incident before landing.

'The death was cause by not buckling the seatbelt while landing". Seriously? No, I am pretty sure the death was caused by the "unexpected air turbulence" when nobody was wearing their seatbelts. Is this a weak attempt to blame the passenger instead of the accident?

Isn't their an ASEAN agreement not to tax each other's imports? ASEAN+China, of course. Level the playing field? Thailand does not make most of the small things I buy online. And if I do buy them in the store? Where do you think the sellers get them? Ummm... online.

Although it was certainly illegal work, I think it is not illegal "Online Work." He was advertising online for physical work he was doing in Thailand, which is against the law. The reason that I make this distinction is that I don't want them to come after Vloggers or Online business people next. Technically under, relatively new, Thai Law, they could come after Vloggers or people doing International business but they been using wise discretion thus far. I wish the article didn't call this 'Illegal online work.'

LOL. In Thailand? He picked the WRRRRRONG place. OMG to many of the new SEA visitors after the Pandemic know nothing about what they are getting into! Back when I started coming in 2016 ( yeah, the old'n days), there where a lot of YouTube Vloggers that told you what you could and couldn't do (and they Gray Areas). Because YouTube does not want to pay for that anymore, they are harder to find.

They are being pressured to be more difficult on people with Dreadlocks and wearing Cargo shorts. Seriously, the only this the Immigration Officers can do it make a big show of being a hardass to prove to the bosses that they are being more diligent.

In my experience with Thai Immigration, what they will do it profile tourists at the port of entry based on hairstyle and whether or not they are wearing flip-flops or short pants. 'Yep! He looks like a criminal'
