Thais Warned of Legal Consequences for Exploiting Digital Wallet
I said to her that's crazy as people will either have to go to the office's to all change their cards or leave to go to their home area . I'm not sure if you can only change your card in the area you were born or can do it anywhere. If only in area you were born then Phuket , Samui and Bangkok will be empty of restaurant staff .

Why is Milk So Pricey In Thailand?
Always buy the dark blue top Meiji milk as nearest I have found to be decent. Dutch milk is very watery tasting. Think I pay about 100bht for large carton of Meiji.

Chinese Tourist Killed by Falling Tree While Ziplining in Chiang Mai
Must have been a very poorly constructed bridge to break with just the one tree falling on it . Appears to have steel cables in it despite being described as a rope bridge , would think they would be strong enough to support it for enough time for them to get off the bridge unless they were thrown from it upon impact.

Thais Warned of Legal Consequences for Exploiting Digital Wallet
I seriously can't believe they won't allow people to pay electric bills with this . Gasoline I can understand they could buy it and sell to get cash , but electric you can only really pay at office or via a bank app using barcode on the bill . This seems totally set up to go to the many large companies who sell all things like soy sauce , msg , cooking oil to the smaller franchises and shops . So eventually it all ends up in the large companies pockets as people can't do anything else with it . Good news we are going to give you money but you can only spend it where we say 🙈 My wife said you can also only spend it in the area your id card is registered too. She had to go change her id card to location we live now .

Buriram Woman Loses 530,000 Baht in Baffling Bank Transfers
Her husband seems well paid if he's sending 80000 a month to her. What was the aunt wanting the money for and how did she give it to her or did she not get the chance to give it to her aunt ? Seems banks here just deny everything and say find out yourself to most problems.

Thai Government Lottery
In 13 years of doing the lottery here I have never won from government lottery or Mickey mouse one. Spending 1000-1500 a time on tickets etc. Although the prizes here are bigger than UK or euro millions it's still highly likely you will never win apart from last 2-3 digits . Unless you win euro millions jackpot or second prize you get practically nothing. I seen results a few weeks ago and 4 numbers and 2 stars got about £1000 , 5 numbers and 1 star got about £180000 !! 🫤 Here now when buying multiple tickets with same number they increase prices. 220 for 2 same and seen even 750 for 5 tickets same . Despite this seemingly being illegal I see them advertised like this in writing at stalls across from police stations, outside malls etc .

Thai wildlife rescuer remains comatose months after cobra bite
Can't understand why they don't have full time people to remove snakes from places and more places don't have antivenom available. They are literally everywhere and yet it seems to be volunteers that get called to remove them instead of someone employed by the local authority.

What Movies or TV shows are you watching (2024)
Totally remove any thought of watching axel F with Eddie Murphy. Absolutely woeful lame excuse for a movie. Latest bad boys will probably get watched at weekend and I'm expecting it to be poor as the last one was . I'm sure Martin Lawrence had a stroke or something from watching it. Started watching breaking bad again and the sopranos. Sopranos is pure gold when you watch how good it still is after all these years.

Manchester Armed Policeman Suspended After Video of Man being Kicked in Head
They punched the firearms officers in the face and I'm pretty sure the officers would think they might grab for their weapons next so done the necessary to stop it. Ok the guy was laying on the ground but I'm guessing possibly still mouthing off . If firearms officers tell you to do something you should pretty much do it or risk getting shot. F**k around and find out in this case ! Especially in an airport where you can get arrested for just saying the word bomb .
