TURP (Prostate) in Khon Kaen, Udon Thani or?
fvw53 replied to KhunBENQ's topic in Health and Medicine
My prostate was removed in Belgium with robotic -assisted laparoscopy (using Da Vince Laser) : if you can afford it you better choose this to reduce time in hospital and most of all control problems of urine later on. My recovery time at home was about 3 weeks (a lot of pain to sit) but everything went OK -

How to transfer internal data from one smartphone to another ?
fvw53 replied to fvw53's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
I don't understand what you mean : Forum members warned me to do my homework before buying a cheap version of the Samsung AZ54. After doing so I went to a Samsung shop and let them do the transfer of the data from the old phone. Should I have reported this to the Forum? -
I guess you know that Temazepam is a benzodiazepine which makes you addicted / Zolpidem is easier to stop with / however your doctor should have the last word

I have a 10 year old Samsung smartphone and I plan to buy Samsung Galaxy A54 5G 8/256 On the old Samsung I have 25 Gb (mostly photos) internal data : how can I transfer them to the new Samsung? If no Forum member can help me then of course I can go to a shop but surprisingly the cost of Samsung Galaxy A54 5G 8/256 is nearly 15.000 Baht So I try to buy online from Lazada where the Samsung flagship store charges 13,390 THB and private seller even incredibly lower i.e. 9,373 THB

where to buy glycine as food supplement in Thailand
fvw53 replied to fvw53's topic in Health and Medicine
Thanks to TallGuyJohninBBK and to Connda I lived and worked in China about 20 years ago and so I know there are manufacturers of excellent products and fake products which means we must verify what we buy. Probably the most expensive food supplement is NMN and it is for 90% or more manufactured by Effepharm Shanghai (repacked and resold under other brand names mostly in the USA and UK) : this is an excellent product. However about my question related to Glycerine with a certificate FCC IV my doubt was right and I copy hereunder the reply I got from a manufacturer in China : I need to by Pharmaceutical Grade and not FCCIV grade QUOTE Dear Ferdinand, Good day to you. Got your email forwarded by my colleague and checked with factory, the Glycine food grade is used in the food industry(mainly in seasoning application), and could meet FCC IV grade. While If put it in food supplement, they need to use Glycine Pharmaceticual grade. Regards, UNQUOTE -
I have searched many online sources. From one supplier I bought what I supposed to be a Thai product but I got once more glycine made in China (a quality certificate was added but it was based on the international Food Chemicals Codex of 1999 i.e. FCCIV) Does any Forum member know where to buy glycine suitable as food supplement for humans?

cheap tablet PC which can connect to internet

Thank you ! Can this Teclast T40 also connect to router for internet connections at home ? -
What are the cheapest options for a tablet PC which can also connect to the internet ? (eventually also fit on a separate keyboard) I think 6 Gb RAM should be OK but which generation so that it can later be updated?

I think it was Napoleon who said that "history" are the lies on which everybody agrees (look how history is created during the Donald Trump period) -

Thailand’s experiment with weed goes up in smoke
fvw53 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
On CNN the neurosurgeon Dr Sanjay Gupta made detailed reports that unitl now nobody died of overdose cannabis and that it helps a lot of people for pain management (you can find on Youtube under the name "Weed") I believe cannabis is very damaging for the longs if you smoke it but I see no problem to swallow it / I never touched it but I would like to be availabe in case I am affecting by a long and painful illness. However I agree also that the business should be strongly regulated. -

It is a matter of being well organised. Stalin said the people who vote are not important, all depends on the people who count the votes (as we can notice in the US elections) -

There is a new regulation for those with extension based on 800,000 THB in the bank I have to report to Immigration with update of my bank book in July after 3 months (to check if the 800K are still there) and in October after 6 months (to check if I have still 400K left) Question : I plan my summer holidays in Europe in July and August : what should I do ? Did any Forum member had to face this situation?

Thanks to the Forum members who replied. My extension based on retirement with 2 months money in the bank was accepted (although I/O papers want 3 months for a first application but as I was already in their system with previous extensions based on marriage they made it easy) I am still married but just tired of the increasing paperwork to get an extension based on marriage. Until 5 years ago I/O accepted an affidivit supporting by a printout of my government pension / then my signature had to be legalised by the Embassy / then further legalisation at the CW Consular department became necessary etc etc... I am not blaming the I/O who told me how many "fake" declarations of income were noticed the last years by Immigration Head Office.

For more than 10 years I have obtained an extension of a Non Imm-O based on marriage and 400,000 THB in the bank 2 months before the new application (in fact I never touched the money). Now I want to switch to the less complicated extension based on retirement. 1) on 2 February I increased my bank account to 800,000 THB 2) my previous extensions always ended on 27 April 3) I thought to go now on 3 April to make the application for a "retirement" extension because I have then the 800,000 THB in the bank for 2 months 4) Could I be refused this extension because I/O wants this 800,000 THB in the bank 3 months before the application? I that case could I apply for a one month extension first (up to 27 May) and then apply for a "retirement extension" after May 2nd?
