Please do not mock the health care here.
I am only able to make this post due to the excellent health care services at Khonkaen government hospital.
So my friend dont knock it till you tried it.
Having my body snapped in 2, then very skillfully put back together by an excellent surgeon and his team.
No before you have a go, saying i am exagerating, it is perfectly true.
all jokes aside the health care system here is top notch (if you can afford it or have insurance)
years ago my dad landed at the airport and then decided it was a great idea to have a heart attack while walking to immigration. was taken to the remote hospital on site and further taken to a hospital in bkk. during his stay he decided it was a good idea to have a couple more while he was at the hospital. having a team of dedicated specialists etc to take care of him meant the difference between me being able to say hello this morning or not.
back home he would of died. while dead he would of been put on a waiting list to see a specialist. a little far fetched but any canadians on here will agree the speed of our *free* healthcare system is top notch.
i broke my wrist years back here in thailand. went to hospital. checked in. x ray and doctor visit. cast put on. meds given. bill paid. signed out. all of which took approx 45 minutes and cost around 60 cad. when i was a kid at home i sometimes had to come back the next day after breaking my ankle. we can do the cast tomorrow they say.

Wishing for a generation to stop breathing for their mistakes is surely the adults talking.
not even willing to discuss or admit to those mistakes is surely. aw forget it.

born and raised in canada to scottish immigrant parents.
first and only game i saw was celtic (not the fenin gers) vs aberdeen at parkhead. don't remember the outcome. a few things that stick out
from a small town seeing all the security at the game was nuts. police on horses all over the place. a helicopter patrolling the area. i saw a few groups running after their single friend who had different colors on. they seemed quite excited. they must of been playing tag or capture the flag cause i heard them saying things like. you're next. you going to get it jimmy. don't you run from me pal. then entering the stadium it felt like i was going to jail or something. i remember the turnstile was brick on either side. it was a very tight squeeze to get in. we then headed to the jungle for our seating. sounded like a hoot. so celtic scores and i end up 14 rows down from where we were standing a few seconds ago. i also remember the stadium shaking up and down from all the fans. was pretty intense.
as a canadian i also thought why don't they just kick the <deleted> out of each other on the field when they disagree like we do in hockey. take a 5 minute major for fighting and cool off. hahah
also i kept hearing a strange chant over and over from the fans. ????
sheep shagging b*******

I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to bu in Phuket, but, seeing as how I do, I know the rough land prices and use those as an example.
Even in the north-east there is a huge variation on land prices. City? Town? Just outside? Or, right out in the sticks.
i'll stick to my original claim. he wants a house outside of the city for some peace and quiet.

A sensible question.
Bite? I'm not trolling.
my assumption is that he is not buying land in phuket. i am assuming he is building a house in the north east somewhere. so with that assumption ( possibly wrong) i was concerned that 1 million for land is waaaaay expensive for that area. which then brings up a whole whack of red flags as far as i'm concerned.
if i am wrong i will eat crow and apologize.
edit. looking back at the op he did also say remote and uninteresting location. that is what originally lead me to the assumptions i made. ????

our species really needs to re evaluate how we view reproduction. back home you need a licence to own a pet or ride a bike. heck if you want to have a bunch of children you cannot afford you go right ahead. these choices have huge implications as shown in this horrible story. this young man did nothing to deserve this other than being born. what a devastating situation for this boy.
the cost of a single tank of jet fuel for a fighter plane would change this boys life forever. how much does a gun cost ? or a tank ? a helicopter ?
a country with over 90% buddhist population. never been conquered(other than from within) yet the need for a military is ???

It rather depends on where it is, don't you think?
Nakorn Nowhere ex-rice paddy less than 100k per rai.
Phuket minimum will be three to four million per rai in an unfashionable area. Over 10 million per rai near a beach. 50 million if in Patong.
I really hate having to state the obvious.
ok karen ill bite

i for one am truly grateful.
Wow!
Denial is not a river in Egypt, you know?!
Leadership skills?
As in "keeping millions of people without job and financial aide for weeks or even months"?Or as in "letting the Chinese come in by the plane- load, when the whole world already knew, what was going on"?
Or as in "scapegoating foreigners for the spread of the virus"?
Or maybe " implementing a useless curfew, a questionable alcohol ban and some non-sensesical measures like closing pool but opening markets (which never were closed in the first place"?
woooooooah cowboy.
maybe you should brush yourself off come into the saloon and have a drink. i'm buying.

First arrived in Thailand overweight and out of shape. After working a few months, I took a trip to see a friend in Phuket, got involved in a fitness regime, trained in Muay Thai, took up MMA again, and took some fights. Over that year I lost over 80 lbs, and returned to the shape I was in when I has exited the Police Academy. Over the years of going back and forth to the US for work I stayed with the routine and Thailand was always in my mindset. The beaches, the slow paced life and wonderful food. After many years of back and forth I moved here full time upon retiring and have continued with keeping healthy. The goal is to enjoy my retirement and not end up wallowing in self pity like so many in the US do upon retiring, as they have no goals, hobbies, or drive anymore except to sit on the couch, drink and watch Jerry Springer or Ellen Degenerate....
way to go man for changing your life for the better. you know ellen is a total db though right ? ????

The largest joke. Marks on the platform to keep people apart but jammed into the train carriages like sardines.
yesterday i took the mini bus from my local area to future park. every other seat. then got to future park and into the next bus to chatuchak and it was rammed full not a single empty seat.

I’m going to use up the rest of this flower before I buy more oil on June 1st it’s better than I thought. It’s old flower but still decent I don’t smoke it I cook with it but yes the oil is much better especially for the way I use it. Since I’m not buying oil for 6 days I will finish up what I have first. I know it’s good because my typing skills are slowing down now lol. Have a nice day.
