Question - did the hospital give her any medicines to fight the virus? If so, did you have to pay for them? Yet another of my staff now has Covid and she has had to ask me for an advance on salary. They told her to quarantine at home but that she had to pay for the tablets - 2,000 baht or more. When she told the clinic (Bophut) that she was fully paid up on Social Security, they said no matter. Now only children up to 2 years old get free medicine? If she wants a doctor's certificate, she has to go to Nathon (whilst positive with Covid) and pay for it. Previous staff with Covid have had the medicines/certificate for free.

Glad that she is feeling better. Tough for a 9 yo. Doc told me that immunity starts ears off after three months. (I have had three jabs.) Yes - maybe the second time is a different variant? Good luck anyway.

Not really. You posted in the Thai Residency (TR?)/Work Permit (WP?) section and you are asking about a TP? Can you not write English?

Thank you for all of the updates khunPer.

Where is the real Rooster?

I thought that people were dumb to buy coins that do not exist. Then there were pieces of art that do not exist. But to 'invest' in land that does not exist? The lunatics are now running the asylum.

You have missed the interesting bit. Her 'songs' criticise the government - especially the PM. She has been fined for spreading fake news and is being sued by Prayut for 'slander'. He is trying to put her in prison!

Always two ways to look at things. The truck was in a left filter only lane and not supposed to go straight ahead. Only the right hand lane was for straight on - the truck was jumping the queue?

Finally some good news. Thanks. ????

A very lucky lady. Good luck with the operation.

Too late. The CCP has already taken over. Either via piracy, bribery or economic blackmail.

Except this one is anti government. Prayut is suing her.

Strange. The thaienguirer had an article that had a very different article of the PM's view of this girl. She is anti-junta.

That may be true as long as the employee is up to date with Social Security payments. I have had an issue or two that were with the labour office and they have been fair, but I am dealing with Thai staff. I do not employ foreigners.

Thank you khunPer, I had not thought of them. I will check them out next time.

Thanks for that VocalNeil. Yes, I had considered it but when I spoke to a good friend who used to work for HP (printer section) she advised against it. It may cause problems for the printer. (May - not will.) As the printer has trundled on for probably 15 years or more, I decided not to risk it. It has outlived newer printers that I have bought and who knows, maybe one day I will install a phone line and use the fax function???

Thanks Neilly. That never came up in my searches on Lazada. Ordered and bookmarked. Let's see how quick they are.

Thanks - I use them as well. Really good guys. Closed last week and when I placed an order this morning, they came back very quickly stating that their suppliers were all out of stock. Always a good response from them. I buy screens and printers from them as well.

There was a topic on this back in the day but it seems to have gone. I am looking for printer ink. Specifically Canon 811 or 81 XL. Usual suspects no have. (PowerBuy, Big C etc) Invade IT no have. Lazada have some dodgy versions. ie no box or Chinese writing. (Not a fan of Shopee.) Any suggestions as to where I can buy the genuine article please?

Most on Koh Samui are still wearing masks. Everyone where I live and work are. Also true in all shops, offices etc etc. The maskless ones are mostly foreign tourists but they also mask up when going into shops. The bit that people are missing is the fact that many people in SE Asia were wearing masks before Covid. Pollution and traffic fumes being the main reason.

No - the parties have been happening for a while. Just no big song and dance about them. This was the first 'official' one. Nope. As at15 mentioned, on KPN most foreigners have been maskless for a while. Never masks at the previous FMP's. Probably why there is an increase in positive Covid cases after the FMP.
