Public Urged to Prepare for Emergent ’Langya’ Virus
“Dr Wasan nevertheless assured that Thailand is ready to respond to health threats, such as by utilizing clinical metagenomics technology todetect infectious diseases of unknown origins.” Another verbal diarrhea by a Thai academic. Detecting is one thing responding is another. Tell us what the response is fool. Just likes using big words and showing off his toys.

JBL earbuds on Lazada genuine?
Not necessarily. I sell on Lazada/Shopee. You never rest assured when buying something online. As clever as they are, scammers find a way!!! Sellers qualify for and need to pay extra to gain labels such as Lazada Mall etc. new sellers can’t qualify for a while which has nothing to do with whether they sell fake or genuine stuff.

Good.

Massage Shop in Patong Open Without Permit
It would be near impossible for a massage shop to operate without local police involvement at the start. It seems like a territorial dispute between different police groups. To settle disputes they use such acts to demonstrate their power.

Kiwi’s prison plight ends: Thai hellhole release brings a breath of relief
They tried to shake him down thinking crypto=money for them. They scared him to facilitate a bigger payout. Maybe he refused or didn’t have money

Selling on Amazon, Etsy, Ebay and Retirement Visas.
Also find out import/export regulations regarding items you plan to sell. As you’ll be generating income in Thailand you maybe liable to pay tax and need to register a company and things associated with that. Unless there’s something unique about the product you plan to sell or you have a better way to ship it, you may find there are businesses that have been doing this for years and you’ll be competing with them. Can you beat them?

what is the best way to get good money every month from 10 rai of land in country side.
It depends. If you plant something valuable you need to make sure it is secured or they’ll steal it. If locals know a farang is running the show they’ll look at ways to sabotage it. My father in law is a rice farmer in issan and I’ve spoken to him about doing something different. Although he visits the farm regularly he’s conscious of possible theft. If you live on the farm it may be ok otherwise maybe risky.

Civilian-led solution needed for permanent peace in the deep South
Military and police get extra pay for working in a “dangerous” zone. Peace means losing money. Whenever things go quiet they instigate a shooting or a burning etc to justify this extra pay. Have you heard the military/police ever come up with a plan to de-escalate?

Deputy PM Prawit denies nap claims, insists he was just grounded
Problem solved. But wait a minute wearing glasses or having grey hair is not a good look for Thai elite. Ok back to “I was calculating important figures in my head. I best do that with my eyes closed to minimize distraction. I’m always calculating figures in my head. Jing jing”

Criminal liability in Thailand
There’s nothing wrong with providing details in this forum. You’d get more involvement with honesty and transparency. We don’t like cryptic posts. ????????????

Is it okay to lie to your partner of 5 years?
It’s clear that your understanding of your relationship with her is different from her understanding of her relationship with you. Love is secondary to a lot of issan village girls. On one hand deceptive and tricky, on the other heavily influenced and coerced by her surrounding. In her mind she’s fulfilling her duties to you by meeting your basic needs. If she’s chosen a path that doesn’t accord with you, being in her “natural” environment will make your task of “sorting the issue” very difficult. Try this: tell her you’ve been offered a work opportunity to move to a far away location for a year. Make the assumption that as your partner she’ll be going too. Use “we” a few times. “We’ll have to find a place in such and such location”. If her reaction is that she’s not willing to go, but it’s ok for you to go then you know you’re just her ATM that she needs to provide some maintenance for from time to time. You can then decide whether this is what you want from life or not. Remember their definition of love is not necessarily same as yours.

Multiple entry is linked to your visa. If your visa ends , say, next week and you got a multiple entry today your multiple entry will expire next week.

Do I have to pay the Pu Yai Baan to come to the Amphur with me?
If they specifically asked for him and they know it is not required one can suspect a planned opportunity to fleece a farang. If so, they’d expect a payment of sorts to be shared between the two.

Snooker dispute in Nakhon Sawan ends with fatal shooting
He snookered the wrong guy and paid the price. Not being able to get out of a snookered ball can be a face losing situation.

Drunken Police Officer Shoots Wife Dead After Argument in Chanthaburi
Typical Thai mentality. Take the quickest way (usually not the correct way) to deal with things without foresight.

Would you try Lab grown meat ?
It is meat. Actually better because it excludes some undesirables.

Would you try Lab grown meat ?
That has nothing to do with lab grown meat though. I also don’t like Durian so I won’t eat lab grown meat. ????????????????

PM’s soothing words for frayed nerves as he says he will continue his role up to the next cabinet
Relinquishing power is hard for dictators. He just can’t help it. If he’s got half a brain he’d quietly wash his hands off keeping his loot disappearing in the sunset. Maybe he’s afraid if he lets go, they’ll come after him.

Thai Youths Urge Pheu Thai to Rid the Country of Illegal Drugs and Recriminalize Marijuana
We’re talking about infrastructure that deals with drug related issues such as education, support help etc. A ten year old introduced to yaaba or pot as we’ve seen will end up a burden to himself, his family and society.
