  1. Whilst not wanting to dismiss this as nonsense, it was posted on April 1st. That's the problem, it's difficult to know what's true on that day. Some posts seem to back this up so maybe it is true.
  2. I would have thought this was as likely, if not more so with older doctors who have been prescribing these for a long time and haven't caught up with the problems.
  3. I only know about this because I read it here. Maybe airlines will notify travellers to Thailand to avoid problems.
  4. Not all government workers are corrupt. My wife is a government worker and she isn't corrupt.
  5. I heard about the MP vaping in Parliament, but I didn't here what was done about it. Were there severe penalties, or was it a misunderstanding? I can see they want to avoid children taking up vaping but it does seem strange that normal smoking is ok.
  6. True, but they don't seen to have planned for closing the loophole. If they had there wouldn't be all this confusion and wildly different rules depending on where you live. A couple of weeks ago I read the UK Thai double taxation treaty. I can't remanded if it made complete sense though. I seem to remember it cleared up some issues but not regarding state pension s.
  7. As I see it, the problem is that instead of planning for change and then implementing it, the Thai government tends to implement change and then try to plan for it.
  8. I've kept many ferrets as pets abs even some of those would be dangerous down there
  9. I've not seen any of these, but I'll look out for them now. I'm in Mahasarakham and someone has seen them here so I should be lucky.
  10. I hadn't thought of that but I checked and your right.
  11. It doesn't say which political party. It's obviously a party many senators support and vice versa.
  12. Definitely no from my point of view.
  13. They don't seem to apply the same logic when life expectancy stagnates or falls though.
  14. Thaksin did protect the army from any responsibility for the deaths of innocent people during the Red Shirt protests in 2010, so maybe jail all of them.
  15. What about, 'The elderly Thai man who's been very poorly and is staying out of politics to spend time with his grandchildren'.
  16. Well the article seems to suggest they will use indirect methods, which shouldn't be too difficult. Everyone knows who they mean.
  17. No I don't know, that's why I was asking. The reason being that the post you replied to suggested they could fly domestic flights in western countries. Not that that's a problem in itself, it's just a bit hypocritical if they want to stop foreign pilots flying domestic routes in Thailand whilst Thai pilots can do elsewhere.
  18. It's not often that I agree with Marco or the current US administration but this is one of those times. Credit where its due.
  19. The right to a pension isn't dependent on where you live, although annual increases are. I think most other benefits stop if you leave the UK, although I haven't checked them all.
  20. Can Thai pilots fly domestic routes in Western countries? Its not something I've ever thought of before.
