Incapacitaed and in hospital, how do I pay?
It depends on how incapacitated one is. For the worst case scenario, I have a living will with a DNR statement in it. I have registered it at the local hospital. Just to confirm things, I have told the cashiers that if I am completely incapacitated, no one will pay the bill. They got the message and it is recorded on my records.

Samui Busy, after White Lotus?
Not really. Much less traffic on the road now that high season has finished. March was much more busy. A quick flurry of visitors this weekend, Full Moon Party tonight. Not sure how busy hotels are though. The villas that we look after are all booked.

Pattaya Comes Alive as Tourists Start Songkran Water Play Early in Soi 7-8
A lot longer than that methinks. I was there for Songkran 25 years ago. Mayhem. Said that I would never return. The only time that I did go back was for a friend's funeral.

Phuket Faces Water Crisis as Reservoir Levels Plummet
There will be the same problem on Samui and I suspect other islands as well. Thailand and its people do not take water conservation seriously. Staff here do not understand why I do not allow water to disappear down the sink's plug holes. I have a plastic basin in every sink and the waste water is thrown on the plants. It's not a huge amount, but if everyone did this???

No Coffee Crisis: Supply Steady, Prices Stable, Assures DIT
Thais Thais looking at local producers instead of the real world? I buy coffee from Chiang Rai, a kilo at a time. The last two orders have both seen an increase in price. Witthayakorn Maneenate, the Director-General, needs to smoke less pot and look at the real world.
