  1. Add North Korea, Iran, Afghanistan and Belarus to the list.
  2. Brings back memories of the UK attempt to send some migrants to Rwanda. Even though the UK is out of the EU, it's still subject to ECHR rulings and they ruled illegal by them. The only solution for the UK appears to be to elect Nigel Farage who will either take the UK out of ECHR or just ignore it, along with the relevant UN convention. Seeing the boats rolling in daily with economic migrants from safe country of France makes the blood boil.
  3. Can you tell me who your agent is?
  4. Looks like he wrote that announcement.
  5. I remember seeing this earlier this year. Keeping a Lion right in the heart of Pattaya.😮😮That noise would keep me awake at night,
  6. This is why they bombed the Cambodian supply lines before the ceasefire took effect, because they didn't believe the Cambodians wouldn't honour the ceasefire.
  7. Yes, we would bf willing to travel to Bangkok for the best care.
  8. Welsh paper reports imply the Gofundme page was set up by his Gran. At least that’s the way I read it. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/man-arrested-after-welsh-dad-31855347
  9. The costs I think he must have been put in the Chonburi Government hospital and they realised there was no way they would recover the true cost of the treatment. Initially on life support and unconscious for 6 days he must have initially been on ultra expensive life support. If he had ended up in one of the private ones, it would have been way higher and they are likely to have pursued him for more money. Earlier press reports quoted repatriation costs of £28k, but looks like he got a commercial flight.
  10. We are booked to come to Pattaya next month. My wife has an ongoing medical condition called Scleroderma and needs to have ongoing observation from a Rheumatologist. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a Rheumatologist they have used? We saw a presentation by Dr Nantharath Wongwar-Aporn at PCEC and were impressed by her.
  11. The police are certainly setting a high standard for arrest. Since brandishing a BB gun and knife with perceived intent to use it after hitting a porter doesn’t get you banged up.
  12. First went there when I married in 1986. On the return journey from our honeymoon our locked luggage was put at the back of the bus behind the back seats. During the journey, someone with a knife cut through the luggage and took money and passports. Ironically we put these items in the luggage because we were worried about bag snatchers pinching the small bags we were carrying. All sorts of problems, with the police wanting a little sweetener to provide us with the necessary crime report, to take to the embassy for a replacement passport to be processed. Been there 10 times since and walked many miles around Manila, Cebu and Danao, but never encountered any problems. Although I was wary about walking in some of the sketchy areas.
  13. We were there last summer and I agree they are very law abiding, except for cycling on pavements. I was amazed how many cycle on the pavement, when there are beautiful wide roads without pot holes. Some come up quite quickly from behind and I had a couple of close passes. One street we were staying near even had a sign placed in the middle of the pavement, but cyclists would just cycle round it.
  14. Thanks for the information, thats very interesting. I was wondering if you could advise me what hearing aid and translation device you ordered from Lazada? It sounds like a good option.
