One key to happiness may be not feeling the need to come on to a website like this to explain why you are happy. And George S. Kaufman, whose wife I referenced early on, wrote a lot of the musical screenplays for the Marx Brothers.

As (1937) accredited to the wife of George S. Kaufman: I’ve been poor and I’ve been rich. Rich is better!"

Thanks for that.

And as the Mamas & Papas sang: Baby it's true; the joke's on you

To one of AseanNow's most fervent and frequent complainers that PM Prayut should Get Out! Now!, I once sent the website and contact of the PM's chief of staff so he could complain directly instead of on these inconsequential pages. He wasn't interested and said that I do not understand the true nature of complaining. BTW https://spm.thaigov.go.th/web/CRTPRS/spm-sp-layout6-person.asp?m=s

Wow! the AN/TV version of a poetry slam. Great fun, guys.

Why are there so many haters on this site? It must be because of the unelected PM. At least, as I sometimes read on here, just about everything else is.

Can't answer that one without knowing what exposure you had to persons who were positive. I lead a healthy lifestyle. I was also on the same Bangkok to Khon Kaen ThaiSmile we46 Dec11 2021 flight as the Thai couple recently back from Belgium who were the patients zero of the Kalasin Omicron cluster. I was vaccinated at the time. No covid for me although I went and got PCR tested at a hospital.

So is this guy trying to out-whatever GammaG?

The only thing that would make me feel like a criminal is if I felt I had to pay a bribe to stay here.

First off my surgery was result of hip fracture following fall, not degenerative. Stability fine after 4 months but still walked slow with a little side-to-side hip motion. I walked out of the hospital very slowly after release with a cane, no walker or crutches with my 2-piece walking cane which I had brought with me. As I noted on a previous post, after 2 moths I was able to climb the steps to a no-Jetway flight. Slowly but no need for wheelchair and truck lift onto the flight. Phyathai2 Bangkok.

Four months after hip replacement I moved into a new house with my room on the second floor. Looked at the stairs and said "No Way". Put in the bannister.

So I guess the super-yacht owner hasn't been following AN/TV close enough to know that anybody with any REAL money will go some place other than Thailand.

Such comments by you always make me think of the Michael Corleone quip from The Godfather Part II: (Hyman Roth)'s been dying from the same heart attack for the last twenty years.

Whatever you may find, level of satisfaction with the current government was not part of the survey.

This was a synopsis of Thailand as provided by www.internations.org/expat-insider. Where does it indicate that the electoral status of the current PM is of any concern to tourists and expats. Probably a good chunk of the interviewed tourists and expats could not even tell who is the current Thai PM let alone his electoral status.

More people read or listen to the BBC than read your posts.

The nonsense was a quote from the BBC.

Well maybe at least those tourists and expats from the UK, having read this on the BBC, just don't realize that, as you say, the PM is 'unelected': Thai parliament elects ex military government chief Prayuth as PM Published 6 June 2019 Retired general Prayuth Chan-ocha, the man who led a military coup in Thailand five years ago, has been elected as the country's civilian prime minister. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-48537664

It says (Rotate device for full chart view) I picked up and rotated my PC and it still looks like this:

Not the reason. Oh.

So he is right 60% of the time which is he is worth over US$100 billion.
