Thai Officials Announce "Innovative" Expat Health Measure
Could also be a way to generate fines. It would be easy for local police to fine a handful in any crowd and supplement their income as the economy gets worse. It's all about the money usually.

Cost dental implant in Pattaya
It reads like an experiment went awry. Are you missing any gold teeth?

Songkran water throwing
You are missing something here. It's not traditionally a water fight. The traditional way is to pour a bowl of water gently down the back. Nobody is drunk or tossing water.

Colon cancer
A lot of it is just rice. A plate of rice or bowl of noodles with a small side of protein of your choice with minimal vegetables or basil added. The non-rice part seems to be getting smaller and the rice part larger. Maybe a cost saving measure. No wonder people eat so many times a day, it's just quick carb energy.

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part I
Another point, if you don't know the language or are not familiar with the system, most everybody would just pay what is billed, or have it taken from their retirement account. I think most foreigners would just do that anyway without even bothering to file a return and keep track of it all.

Those places give me the creeps. All about body functions and nothing else.

One of the few benefits of getting older (as long as you can still maintain an erection when needed).

US Kick streamer provokes brawl in Thailand
It's going to be all over Bangkok, just like New York City would be in the Usa. Bangkok is a huge crowded city and a traffic nightmare. Thai's are not immune to violence and frustration, even if they are able to crack a weird grimace in some situations.

Dentures. Ordinary.Renew.Pattaya.
Be very wary of fake online reviews. They are rampant here. Post anything dental related you can see them posted within a couple days. People are also afraid to post critical opinions because of the defamation stuff.

They leave the soi dogs alone here from my understanding (at least it goes unreported).

It makes sense to forget a lesser crime.

US Kick streamer provokes brawl in Thailand
Correct. Things don't get reported easily here. Even bad service reviews risk a lawsuit. It's disgusting the whale can't see through the smokescreen after many years in Bangkok. Sounds like the whale did not learn much from his stay, missing out on a major lesson. In the Usa almost everything is in the open and reported. Free press or closer to it.

Koh Samui Experiences Tourism Surge: Fully Booked Flights and Hotels Amid Summer Season
I wonder how many of these tourism stories are fake news. They read like the fake medical & dental tourism reviews that trick people into thinking other people are going, when in reality it's just window dressing and a nice picture or lobby. A way of getting people's attention so they are more likely to show up and follow what others are doing. It does not seem like much for just one story, but when they keep getting posted everywhere constantly at different places it changes people's perception of that business or location.

Fishing, I think. They were cranking with a rod & reel on hand.

Fixing my eyes whats available
I get that feeling also. People are being fooled by fake reviews around medical tourism in Thailand. Many places now offer discounts at check out for 5 star reviews. I have had several experiences with places I researched and looked great, mostly dental related. Then when I had work done it was shoddy. The quality is not there, it's just an outer window dressing and a clean lobby. My suggestion, a quality place in the Usa (if you can afford it).

Watch the video again Einstein. The "locals" hit him first.

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part I
Yes, you can. If you don't have the documentation to back up your exclusions or deductions you end up with double taxation. I had this problem in the Usa. I could not document contributions to retirement accounts from many years ago so ended up being double taxed on withdrawn money.

Teeth - extraction
It's distracting having someone looking up and around while you are trying to drill or whatever. This the face covering.

Nah, several main days in popular areas then it tapers off. Not that big a deal.
