The idea of ageing triggers anxiety in younger people. The OP is 77, so quite young.

Are you saying that you are the outcome of a euphemism ?

RTFM? What difference would it make? The Dinosaurs would put a few tanks into the Bangkok street and rewrite it. Those who wouldn't comply to the new "manual" would be "disapeared", again.

Got stung at the base of a finger nail of my left hand. Within a minute the intense pain moved up the arm and the chest. Absolutely no swelling, redness, etc. Had PVCs, very high burden, for about 18 months after. Were they caused by the scorpion, Covid or my too many Covid vaccines? Who knows.

So what?

Thailand altogether...

There is even an unelected senator claiming that the reform of section 112 would be antidemocratic. But honestly why our governments so silent? A bit of a colonial stance IMHO.

The mountain in your picture isn't Everest. Unless it has been processed through the filters used by certain ladies selling their inexistent charm on various escort sites.

Spreading like wildfire...

That's unwoke.

Well, I really wonder why I am here now... Been reading AN posts, now and then, in total amazement. Joined recently as I thought it could be useful for visa and medical topics.. Going to flagellate myself, right now, for contributing to the brain fog.

Guess I [or my shovel] am/is faster than light. Met about half a dozen of things looking like this one, and won on every occasion. My cat got one too, but it was puny. Ok, for king cobras I'll borrow DIL's shot gun. please-help-me-id-this-snake-found-in-thailand-buriram-my-v0-7bw3mqb0rdm91.pdf

I'd kill first, probably slice it in two or three piece with my shovel, before any negotiation. The Putin way...

The LTR stands for "Long Term Resident", 10 Years, near zero effort; at 70, why would one bother....

Honestly, why invest time, money and effort in PR when LTR is so easy to get. Took me 3 hours flat, expect the same in 5 years, one 90 days [equivalent] a year, no financial constraints, etc...

He's not completely wrong, I keep telling my wife that the Thais should look at Japan if they wanted a model...

Last week I used one to cut blue pipe. And then I couldn't connect it to my valve...

Jack, many of our colleagues have used their CIGNA plans to get their LTR visa. Why don't you contact FAFICS and/or send an email to the member who represents non Thais. FAFICS

Clearly a victim too, victim of toxic males or the abject system that keeps most people in poverty.

Should it be legalised without a referendum? As much as I was in favour of civil partnerships would I vote against marriage. I would also support adoption of children of a previous normal marriage but only that. The family is the Atom of our society, it should not be interfered with without good reason.

The answer lies in the number of physicians per 1000 people, 0.9 in Thailand versus 3.9 in the EU.

Eat pray love.

Googled "Riccardo Morandi", died some 34 years ago. We are safe.

And sadly I wouldn't believe any of your reports, as I know that the system can be manipulated in the most ruthless fashion. Reading reports of doubtful veracity is just a waste of time.

Do not write any review, good or bad, for services in Thailand. I stopped reviewing after that incident in Koh Chang.
