Israel-Hamas Conflict Affects Thai Exports, Claims TPSO
Ben Zioner replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Not Israel. Hamas. This is what you wanted to write, I guess. -
Maybe, we need a refresh on "sex", many of us "can't remember". My wife had he period last week, while I had a Cholecystectomy.

British tourist arrested with cocaine hidden in passport

Lost for words that's all. -
Leads to a Thai compensation deal.. Without police getting commissions from both sides.

If not done too late... There is a proportionality between the pain experienced before the operation and the difficulty of the procedure, in some cases (about one in twenty) they have to convert keyhole into open surgery. This may raise another issue with insurances, some (especially self insurers ) may refuse to cover elective surgery. Mine was borderline elective, but I got approval without hesitation.

Four Frenchmen Lost at Sea Found Safe on Thai Island
Ben Zioner replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Yeah.. But same level of skill, remember they were supposed to be on a honeymoon, and the first thing the police found out was that they didn't have sex. -
Bumrungrad. But someone said he got it done, a few years ago, for a tenth of that price in a government hospital. Bear in mind that now they have, very officially, introduced multi-tier pricing based on the colour of your skin. So 270k for a procedure that doesn't require any particular recovery. Was fully mobile, without pain, after an hour. Back home they do it as outpatient, I stayed one night.

I can see why this could happen. For instance, I got my Gallbladder taken out last week, there were a few largish stones and the pathology revealed chronic inflammation. I am pretty sure that any recent (less than 2-3 years ) cover would have refused to pay the 270k bill on the ground it was for a preexisting condition. IMHO one should get into private cover in one's early forties, and keep it, to avoid such situations.

Thailand's oxymoronic system in a nutshell. -
Hence first post, to answer OP's assertion that their were ALL rubbish.

No worries mate we'll let you pay for your 6 weeks in ICU after your stoke on the treadmill.

My estimate was probably low, because Doctors, Dentists, Ophthalmologists, glasses, etc for two adults and two kids amounted probably to more than that.

Which part of "even if there is none" didn't you understand?

33 years of family coverage, with OPD.

Dunno, But UNJSPF is one of the reasons I did the second half of my career with the UN. Cost me 7.9% of my pensionable income, while the employer paid 15.8. Simple and gave me an "LTR qualifying" pension after 23 years of service. So I am not rich and not obsessed by money, I let other people doing the dirty thinking for me.

So what makes you a German tax resident? And then I don't get it, you couldn't put money into a retirement fund now to draw a pension in a few months. And if you could do so, you could probably qualify as a wealthy global citizen, as you said. Your weakness might be that you may be to attached to your money. AFAIC, I have had an "LTR qualifying" pension without withholding tax for years. So it was a no brainer.

They look too young to be those lost during the Rainbow Warrior operation in the early eighties.
