At 9pm the level of the Ping in Sansai is 80 cm higher than at the Nawarat measuring station and the water flow is rising fast. The forecast is for the river to peak in the city at 2 am at levels way higher than even 2011. This is a real crisis for many people and for many businesses still trying to recover from the enormous damage caused by the COVID crises.

For what? The level of the Ping river has actually been dropping in the last 24 hrs and the early week flooding upcountry was well covered by news media as well as social media. So this is old news and has ,ittle or np beating as the weather forecast is for rain to ease off.

Barf.

Dyson spares are a nightmare to get and very expensive. My vacuum cleaner, 9 weeks for a new battery that you cannot install yourself, 26 weeks for a dust collection bin that is made in Malaysia! I would never buy Dyson again.

Rimping Meechok have a selection of Mainland Cheddar cheeses ranging from a mild young Cheddar to a Tasty and on occasions a Vintage. Stock varies but there is always at least two ages from which to choose.

I second Dr Chanakarn. He recently dealt with my long lasting Achilles tendon issue by prescribing anti inflammatory and muscle relaxant tablets plus stretching and walking modification exercises. After 4 months it is almost totally resolved at a cost of a few thousand baht, compared to a surgery proposal by a top line hospital at a cost of 130000 thb. Oh, he is also team doctor to the national sports team so he knows what he id doing. His clinic is very busy and does not take appointments but I highly recommend a visit. Google Maps is your friend.

As a type 2 sufferer I fail to understand why it is not possible to purchase a Continuous Glucose Monitor in Thailand, unlike many Western countries. These easy to use devices give out realtime information on glucose levels without the finger prick. This greatly enhanced our ability to understand the impact that foods have and modify our eating to minimise sugar spikes. Why does this country prevent us living a more carefully managed life? I suspect there is pressure from the likes of hospitals that want to control their use and make big bucks.

Khun La you are wrong, in my part of CM the AQI was over 300 on Thursday for many hours and hardly ever goes below 200 for many weeks. There is nothing to be gained by minimising the issue.

Since the pollution became critical there has already been a reported drop off in forward hotel bookings. My partner runs a tourism dependent business that has done record turnover for over a year until a month ago when business dropped off a cliff with revenue being up to 40% down on numerous days. Meanwhile the governor holds a presentation telling everyone that pollution better than a year ago, but fails to mention that CM has had a record numbers of days when it is world number one. The extended crapshoot of Songkran events is heading for a financial disaster for many businesses.

And where pray are the designated areas where this ban will be in place? Or have they not yet decided where to apply it!

Wowser, a true example of Thai soft power! Or is it an example of Thailand Ice Cream Hub!? Whatever it is the nation can beat it's chest with pride. 555

IGNITE Thailand! Chiang Mai is deeply affected by pollution caused by fires ignited by village idiots and farmers employed by giant conglomerates. He won't declare CM an emergency zone because he wants to protect tourism! Does he not realise that tourists are already falling ill, are already cancelling visits, are already telling their friends what a hell hole this place is. Ignite Thailand is where the future destruction of tourism and the health of it's people lies. Srettha is beyond being a fool he is complicated in condemning people to illness.

Snuggling up with the government that is a Putin supporter. Disgusting, shameful but what is to be expected from Srettha who would kiss the devil just to get his photo taken.

Is it coincidental that pollution has hit the year's highest since he arrived and was followed around by a rent a crowd movb of grannies!

There has been an unpleasant stench around Chiang Mai that I thought must be a local pig farm, but no it is the reeking fossil himself. Doesn't he realise the voters have moved on and no longer will vote for a criminal billionaire who has never done anything meaningful for his oh do beloved home. Can't wait to wave him good-bye as he departs in his personal private jet paid for from taxes he never paid.
