Songkran Celebration: Health Ministry Sets Alcohol Sales Guidelines
Yahoo, 21 days that I will not be in Thailand, again. I did experience Songkhran once and that was enough. I wonder what magic number TAT will forecast for the excess tourists for this magical 21 day event? Good luck to all expats that live in good old Thai and year round. Bye I am leaving this stinking hot country tomorrow. I spent 58 days here this trip and that was more than enough.

Thai AirAsia opposes airfare reductions due to operational costs
Cheap airlines usually go broke pretty fast. Reality is the world that Air Asia lives in. Other airlines are still chaging more because of higher fees as well. Quit complaining or quit flying, your choice. IMO

Controversy erupts as Thai doctors clash over mRNA vaccine effect
I feel lucky to be alive, one of my relatives,died from the first covid variant, before vaccines were available. He was fit and only in his early 40s. Since I have been vaccinated against lots of other diseases, I have been healthy. I did not get typhoid, tb, or colera etc.so I feel fortunate to get those shots. That is my opinion.

Thailand braces for intense heat with temperatures soaring
Anyone who goes to coastal California, and complains about the weather, should really go to northern Canada or Alaska, and try Winter there. Thailand would feel great after that. People living in the far north, are not as scared of global warming as others are.

Thaksin sparks online debates for being released on parole
hotchilli, I agree with you 100 percent. I am more concerned that the Red Bull Boss, is still running around the world free, even if there was lots of money spent. Thaksin is home again, and is able to see his family once again. At least he came back to Thailand.

New Govt Tourist Insurance to Cover Deaths and Accidents
For any expat, or tourist. IMO, If you cannot afford to pay your own medical insurance for your time in Thailand, go back to your own home country, where you should at least have basic health coverage. Nobody should expect Thailand to pay for your health coverage.

Thai Airways takes flight with new Boeing 787 jets
A B787 jet with the GE engine is a top of the line, for fuel effectiveness, new tech cockpits, light weight fuselages, long range, etc. I have enjoyed flying in it a few times, and I think it is even less noisy than older models.

Tragic scooter crash in Thailand leaves Queensland dad in coma
I am staying in Hua Hin, and it is quite shocking all the people who do not wear helmets when riding motorbikes. Especially tourists or idiot expats, who likely do not have health insurance. If the Thais crash, well I just hope they have enough family support. When tourists crash, well som nom nah, if they did not get health insurance, or spend a few hundred baht on a helmet.

Thai Airways takes flight with new Boeing 787 jets
If it is a Boeing, I am going. I have ridden on all models of Boeing, even a B707. Never crashed yet. If it is time to die, I am sure the Lord will provide a way. no use in stayingnhome and hiding from life. My opinion anyway.

First time the world has exceeded 1.5C for an entire year
CO2 is nearly a trace gas, less than one half of one percent of the atmosphere and methane is a trace gas. I wish media outlets would state this fact. Oh but does this mean that trees will grow in the arctic as they did in the distant past? just curious. Harvey
