4-year-old Thai boy drowns at pool villa in Chonburi
Tropicalevo replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Sorry - this is Thailand. We all know what should happen and we all know what would happen should such laws be passed. Nothing. Absolutely nothing would change. Very sad for all concerned. RIP little 'un. -
And the problem with the new law is that it is so vague in places that the 'powers that be' can interpret it to mean whatever they like. Up to them. A bit like section 112 of the royal defamation law.

VIDEO: Why some elderly Thais cannot afford to retire
Tropicalevo replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News Headlines
And that it why it is important to support your local friendly bar girls. Their families need the money that they send in order to survive. Bar girls are not looked down on by their parents. They make a valuable contribution. Many will laugh at this comment, but think about it. Strange world. -
Swedish woman dies after being hit by motorcycle in Thailand
Tropicalevo replied to webfact's topic in Southern Thailand News
That is a good point. I see it a lot here on Samui. Foreigners (both young and old) looking to the left before crossing the road. Then I just know that they are going to walk out in front of me. -
< Removed post edited out > A few year ago, here in Thailand, my dog bit off my finger. When I was talking to the surgeon that re-attached it, he mentioned that mine was the first finger re-attachment that he had carried out. He usually re-attached penis's. About four per year on average.

I am sure that your information is better than my assumption. My assumption was based on the fact that, after my initial tax bill - I was taxed for land only. I had to go to the land office for documentation to prove that I had built houses on it. I never had to go to the Tessabaan for anything to do with House and Land tax changes. It is all as clear as mud. ????

Coronavirus vaccinations on the islands
Tropicalevo replied to khunPer's topic in Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao
Thanks very much for that. I managed to go today (14.00). In and out in less than five minutes. Only three of us there. This was just after my two minute visit to immigration for my annual visa renewal. (Walk up to counter four, give them my passport number, take a photo - all done for another year!) -
There is a daily fine for late payment. The other problem is that there seems to be no direct contact/updates between the Land office and the Revenue office. We register our houses with the land office but many of my customers do not have their house registered with the revenue department. It seems that the land office do not pass this information to the revenue office. The good news is that when we told the the revenue office that there was now a house on the land, they gave us until the next tax year to provide the documents for an update.

Measures Stepped Up to Prevent Monkeypox Outbreak
Tropicalevo replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News Headlines
Just what we did not need. An excuse for the CCSA dictators to stay in power. Sorry. Masks forever. Thailand pass forever. Monkeypox testing with quarantine etc etc etc. Plague number two? Five more to go?- 13 replies

Olive oil spread. Tastes fine and olive oil is good for you (supposedly).

You only need to see a doctor if you want to claim on insurance or fly anywhere. (Fit to fly certificate.) You should quarantine for 5 days as you can pass Covid on to vulnerable people.

I suggest that you get a net and take them elsewhere. Quite a way from your place. Tadpoles as well. They make the noise during breeding season and they will be there every year if you do not move them.

Cheaper than flying to Singapore and a lot less expensive once you are there. Good for a break for a few days. (Once they kill the Thailand Pass.) Mind you, the Singapore flight price may come down with the Resident card but I still prefer Phnom Penh for a short break. (We had our first guests from PP on the inaugural flight today.)

Anutin backtracks on July 1 endemic goal
Tropicalevo replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News Headlines
That is no surprise. If Covid is deemed endemic, then there is no need for the CCSA and its 'emergency decrees'. They would then have to follow the rules instead of acting like dictators.- 89 replies
