Late reply from 90 day report

Never took more than one business day for me online. In person, 10 minutes. -
Why you should never leave a negative hotel review in Thailand
cjinchiangrai replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The problem with reviews like this is that many are petty and vindictive by over entitled falangs. That was certainly the case in the famous Koh Chang incident a few years ago. I have never had an issue with bad reviews, mostly because I usually try to make them constructive. Recognize underlying issues and efforts made. Usually service and hotels in Thailand are above their price point. In these cases, how do they collect overseas? No Aussie court is going to enforce this. -
Statins are largely interchangeable but they are not all the same dosage. If you are living here, go to the local government hospital and get on whatever the local choice is. It will be easier and much cheaper.

Why do tourists go to the same 5 or 6 places
cjinchiangrai replied to bignok's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Easy for those of us that live here to criticize the falang tourists but it makes sense to me. We have the support to go everywhere either on our own or with Thai family. The outer trips are for later visits but it is expensive to visit frequently. I would happily take a holiday in Samui, even though the food is pretty lame, Are the Russians in Phuket more annoying than the Indians in Pattaya or the Nigerians in Bangkok? The Thai touts and Tuk-Tuk scammers are a bigger problem everywhere. -

So what are the widebodies going to be? A350s? 777s? -

Happy to service that missing motorcycle helmet. -
UK and US advocate development of LGBTQ+ rights in Thailand
cjinchiangrai replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Yes, human rights and equal treatment for all is a great idea. Hardly "woke", both are recovering from being derailed by cruel right-wing thugs. -
The biggest barrier is access to general paperwork and insurance. It is time to update the laws on identity and status. The questions may seem intrusive but can also be medically necessary. Trans men still need PAP smears and breast exams, just as trans women still need prostate screening. The reason for the questions should be politely explained though.

Naked British Man Goes Berserk in Pattaya Hotel
cjinchiangrai replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Hardly, that would have him falling asleep at the all night noodle shop. My guess would be Ice and Alcohol. Nothing like a wide awake drunk. -
Lenovo but I have had Dell and HP in the past. They are all good. As long as you minimize the bloatware you will be OK. You might as well move to Win 11 if you are upgrading anyway. To really compare, you need a hardware spec but they will be pretty comparable. Try Open Office instead of Microsoft office to save some baht. I would be looking at an I7 processor with 32 Gb RAM, a 500GB SSD and a 4Tb hard drive. That should have plenty of clout without getting crazy.
