Lorry

Police has nothing to do with it. Abortion has been legal in Thailand for several years. No need for "backroom procedures" nor for improper procedures. Medical abortion (taking tablets) and d&c (dilatation and curettage) are both done here. Abortion is done by doctors, in clinics or hospitals, staff is very caring. The places I named are the most obvious choices, there are others. But many doctors or hospitals won't do it, that's their personal choice. The posts above are misleading. And as I said before, it's walk-in service. No need to call first, just don't come after 3pm. The earlier, the better.

OP said "in Bangkok" First choice, PDA clinic next to the restaurant "Cabbages and Condoms", not far inside Sukhumvit soi 12. Less than 5000 Baht (outpatient). If pregnant over 3 months, Khlongtan Hospital, opposite Petcharavej Hospital on Petchburi Rd, near Khlongtan Intersection. Less than 20000 B for inpatient. Both places are walk-in, best in the morning.

Yes, if these 180 days are within one calendar year. In Thailand, too. The definitions may not be the same as in the UK. You can easily look them up in the revenue code.

What do you mean by "I am registered as living in my condo"??? Registration in Thai is tabien. So how/where can you be "registered" if not in a yellow tabien baan?

The limit is 179 days. I hope he knows that.

Via is the best (unfortunately). If you combine it with Google you often get a good idea of reality. BMTA has a call center for buses, very useful. There is no integrated system. Motorcycle gangs are usually at the entrance of every soi, except the smallest. But they are free not to work whenever business is slow.

Not every private hospital has a complaints department (just like Western companies).

I know. (Not on the ground afaik) They are also one of the most crowded places I know. I recently was seated in front of an obviously sick guy who was coughing non- stop for hours. He didn't wear a mask, of course (farang). His sputum was all around me.

Quite a few of the Chinese here are from HK or Taiwan, which have very efficient government information sharing schemes and pension schemes

Exactly. And less of the accompanying females and "ancillary staff".

I have heard this lame excuse many times, when I was a "middlleman" (one of many volunteers). People who said this were just selfish and wouldn't give to anybody, anyway.

I posted this not to give Jello an opportunity for trolling (how is your toothpaste doing?), but because they said "it's normal". Government hospital care is often discussed here. At least this goverment hospital, in Kantaralak, is not a place I would want to be. Here is a different way to handle a situation:

Here is their commercial: https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/pr/2917225/krungthai-unveils-global-savings-account-for-smart-transactions- Any opinions?

https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2917911/patient-dies-after-brutal-treatment-by-hospital-staff Quote: "it was normal"

I wear a mask in risky situations, when I am forced to breathe the air others have breathed before: taxi, elevator always BTS, plane if not very empty Shopping, depending how crowded the place is I also wear a mask if I might be a danger to others: in hospitals, when close to obviously frail elderly persons especially if they wear a mask themselves I avoid contact with irresponsible, selfish people (eg covid deniers)

Outside of the US, this was - and in many places still is - absolutely normal. And there is a huge difference between regulated banks or credit cards and freewheeling fintech: https://news.bloomberglaw.com/tax-insights-and-commentary/matt-levines-money-stuff-synapse-still-cant-find-its-money "Oh, we have misplaced your money, and unfortunately we can't find it in our electronic systems" - but it was only people's life savings, a paltry 300,000$ or so. But the real problem is what OP describes (not very well). Cashless society means, every single financial transaction (paying Lek, real name - which you didn't even know - Panida Nomsong d.o.b. 31.7.1993 - she told you she is 23 - from Udon; taking the BTS from where to where, buying which kind of beer or cannabis, buying which type of electronic padlock for your door, including serial number and emergency password) is not just traceable, it is traced and analyzed in real time. And stored forever. And it is controllable: sorry, we will not sell you this internet promotion - and because we are a private company, we don't tell you why (happened to 2 good friends who wanted the same promotion as me - the "private company" is owned by the government); the subscription of your NYT for 10$ just went up to 20$, no, make that 50$, oh no, we will not let you read it at all, because of the "information" about you we got from the net; your plane ticket is more expensive if booked by iphone; your stored value card (eg in Thailand's 10000B scheme, in Germany and Australia), can only be used in overpriced shops that paid tea-money bank accounts blocked as in Canada (in my home country this happens too, and it means you lose your rental home) .... these are just real-life examples from Western democracies that give you a taste of our Chinese/Singaporean future.

Same experience here

It killed the young (remember people got it in the trenches?). And in 1918, most people weren't fat.

I am shocked when I see the answers. Didn't know people are so brainwashed. OP may not be the smartest post, but 10 years after Snowden, one would expect some people to have woken up. People who support Cashless Society

I am afraid on Samui I couldn't communicate with the locals, I don't speak Russian

There is no healthy Thai bread. The much lauded Farmhouse sponges "breads " contain 5% sugar and are unbearably sweet. It's useful as bubble foil, though. Baguettes at BigC (not Lotusss) are edible, but sweet, of course. Macro sells bread without sugar. Tastes like cardboard. Some German bakeries sell ok bread, not all.

The rice has been harvested, ready to burn the fields. The local sugar mill did a test run, working fine. 7-11 reintroduced free plastic bags. Preparing everything to gas us one more smog season (while we still enjoy the present, clean air). I have a ticket out of here. Happy breathing!

I wouldn't mind if all those YouTubers shut up. Had to endure a conversation this morning, about how fascinating Msphere is on YouTube - must see!

Your answer is complete BS. This mail is just a logical consequence of CRS (and FATCA). It's actually very nice of Kbank to send people this mail. They ask questions first. There is a Belgian guy who posted, his bank told him after the fact what they had done with his financial information. In my home-country, they don't tell you at all, neither before or after the fact. And, of course, they don't ask you questions. They just send your financial information all over the world without you ever knowing.

They wrote it in the emailed answer someone posted here. They are not obliged to ask everybody. Only if there is reason to suspect foreign tax residency. CRS is much more relaxed than the US FATCA, European banks often ask every single customer to fill out a FATCA form.
