Hang the barstewards.

This is an extremely good idea. It is well known, both in Thailand and from the mouth of that beacon of good sense the President of the US, that less testing equals fewer cases. This holds true of everything throughout the known universe. STOP THE TESTING. 

Given that air quality exceeds both the WHO's and the government's standard for most of the year, would it not be simpler to name those few areas where one is NOT likely to ultimately die of lung disease and associated illnesses, rather than rattle off a long list of black spots each time?

Thanks for the fast reply.

So if a guy said to his friend ขอบใจไอ้น้อง, it basically just shows that they're both close to each other?

In this case, can it be translated into something like "Thanks, bro"?

Exactly!

ไอ้ is just a particle and, depending on context, can denote several things. In this case, combined with น้อง, it merely shows acquaintance, familiarity; in other contexts it can imply contempt, but not in this case. I would refer you to that often-heard chant during recent demonstrations, rendered as 'I hear you' in English, for the latter meaning.

I fully agree. 

Another example: diabolic plague is 100 % deadly but can be reliably cured with antibiotics.

99.9999% of people never get diabolic plague.

Only .0001% of people ever get it (and these .0001% all die from it).

With antibiotics,  .0000% of people die from diabolic plague.

The difference is .0001% (dead w/o antibiotics) - .0000% (dead with antibiotics) = .0001%, the real efficacy of these antibiotics!!!!

, do 

What good are these antibiotics for? I’ll pass . . .

I've heard of bubonic plague and I've heard of pneumonic plague but 'diabolic plague' is a new one for me. What are the symptoms, do little devils with toasting forks sit on one's shoulder?

Birthplace of that well-known devout Christian, Ferdinand Marcos, who stole the wealth of his country wholesale.

I think that service was discontinued several years ago as I enquired about it at Tha Chang and was informed of its demise.

Pity, it was a great and inexpensive trip, but it would make sense that it's been cancelled now that the purple line goes out there. Perhaps there are other public services from there, apart from the Chao Phraya regular boat?

Adopt a rescue, Thailand is full of uncared for and unwanted dogs, doesn't have to be a soi dog.
