This location, situated on the north side of the eastbound middle ring road, just west of the river, is likely to be less expensive than the hospital where you received your last MRI. I've had a couple of MRIs there over the years; the staff was as considerate as could be expected. https://maps.app.goo.gl/3Qd8gJiieSBvch1i6

Also, you might try this lane. There used to be a shop or two located here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/tTi8wS2H5whTfECD7

As mentioned, Lost Books. They have a very extensive supply of used books, but have discontinued the policy on purchasing used books. https://maps.app.goo.gl/G5YMPdauuzrYTj7N8 There's also Shaman. https://maps.app.goo.gl/zWGNKBjRuWkpphKz6

Where does one buy zinc oxide and copper sulfate?

Kaze e-bikes are built north of town in Pa Koi Neua, Tambohn San Pi Seua. "Kaze" is pronounced with 2 syllables; the accent is on the second. The K may be pronounced as a K or a G, i.e., "Gah-ZAY." https://www.facebook.com/kazebicycle/

Please post the links for those maps. I'd like to try to get more legible images.

Thank you, Upnotover; that's excellent information.

My son is finishing his 3rd year at a university here in Thailand. In looking at his future, I’ve been wondering what sector of employment he should look toward, i.e., public, private, NGO, international corporation, self-employment, or what and where. His major is immaterial regarding this matter. Are IRAs (individual retirement accounts) or other savings plans as part of payroll deductions by employers a recognized practice in Thailand? Where might one find an employer who even matches the percent of contribution--at least up to a certain percentage? My thought is that if the employee were left to set up and contribute to his or her retirement account without the employer’s help and implementation, it wouldn’t get done. It would be too easy to skip deposits as well as to dip into and deplete the funds long before retirement. In particular, do you know if private or public/government universities offer and encourage retirement savings accounts for their employees? Thanks for your advice.

I just checked the cost for a buffet breakfast at Shangri-La, and it's 690 baht. I don't think of myself as a cheap Charlie, but just the same, 690 baht for breakfast seems a bit too dear.

Try this place near Jing-Jai Market and Talat Kahm Tieng. They have lots of packing and shipping supplies. https://maps.app.goo.gl/bN92uDan4ACKihZV7

The service is very slow. Mine took over a month. Remain patient and continue to check if it was received.

Make arrangements for automatic payment of your utility bills through your bank. You'll never have to think about being late again, and it's painless.

I've never heard the term "bed towels." Google search doesn't help. What are they?
