Very sad state of affairs when Thailand's 2  English langiage newspapers make no mention of this horrific accident 10 hours after Asean Now report it. Just look at the crap on their web pages that is more important than 14 human probably Thai lives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From the op's name he most likely lives in Korat.

The meds he is seeking are for blood pressure and blood thinning

I take clopidogrel. After a visit to the heart hospital in Khon Kaen, I was given PLATOGRIX 75MG. This is, according to the box, manufactured in France . Whether or not it does what it is supposed to do I do not know, It is however far far cheaper than the clopidogrel I was first given by Bangkok Hospital

Noone seems to have mentioned that the people who get the 600+ baht old-age payment are mostly people who have spent their lives NOT in the formal economy - piece workers, part-timers of all kinds, and of course millions of peasants in rural villages.

 

And they have their own 'informal' arrangements out in the villages eg My PILs (just a little older than me) have paid a few baht monthly for many years in to the village 'life insurance' (my term) fund. When they die, their 2 youngest sons (including my partner) will receive some 200,000 baht out of the village fund. (That is, if it hasn't already been stolen by the village Head Person.)

In my rural village it is the same. Money paid out from a village fund when someone dies, as long as someone has been paying the dues. Rather than a specific payment each month, payments are made and collected, each time an insured member dies..

Name and shame please

I had a few 1 year renewals initially, so that my Alien Reg book filled up quickly. Police have no idea where to obtain a new book from. For the past 15 years I have each 5 yrar renewal attached a piece of paper inside the book for the photo and signature etc to be placed.. Never a problem

Thais with bank deposits of more than 500,000baht will not receive the payment.

I can see a lot of withdrawals before the cut off date, with cash being kept "under the bed"

Again, again and again. Another unsolved problem in Thailand... There should be a special counter at the Police station 

 

Counters...perhaps!

The police, when they act, can only do what the law allows and ridiculous suggestions that over a month's salary for some Thais could be imposed along with the theft of the bike is bizarre.  Why not suggest B20,000 fines and confiscation for a year or two?

Nobody, absolutely nobody, need EVER pay a fine or lose the use of their vehicle IF they simply obey the rules.  The big fine and confiscation is there just as a threat and needs to be used against the total idiots!

How does that work when there are no statutes that permit impounding?

Pass a few simple laws and enforce them

Logic All you got to do is enforce!

But seriously, not 100/200bt fine. 

Have a 1 month advertising blitz, then fine everyone not wearing a helmet 10,000bt (whether  1,2 3 or 4 on the bike) AND confiscate the bike for minimum 1 month.  Turbans not accepted. A helmet or walk!

Conceivably the neighbours turned on him with the scissors!

And they wonder why the Thai Police are tryiong to crack down on the Thai Trans people - the ones that 'work' in the 'entertainment' industry are criminally violent mentally deranged people.  Never ever get involved in anything they do to themselves.  If they are attacking an Expat women, and if you are young and strong and only if you can fight, then by all means maybe get in there - but not if you are one of us old blokes - those Trans are men and most of them can all fight (Mua Thai style).

Well said     those Trans are men    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  All trans are men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Many here saying these murderers should be murdered by the state to prevent them going back on the streets and killing again.

 

What does life in prison without parole mean? Think about it. Take all the time you need.

It means (to me at least) that these murdering scum will NEVER have a life outside of prison, which  is more on a par with those they have murdered who will also never have a life again.  Why should a murderer ever have  something more than his/her victim will have?    If the victim is dead, then so should the murderer be too!

Only ignorant imbeciles will vote for death penalty🎃

Stupid comment!!!!!!!!

I would imagine there would not be so much support for death sentences if, in cases that would otherwise warrant a death sentence, the guilty party was sentenced to WHOLE LIFE IMPRISONMENT, in harsh and not holiday camp conditions, with absolutely no parole EVER for any reason.
