Sad but true If it had something ...anything.... others wanted then other countries would have stepped right in with sanctions Or worse if they had something others really wanted like the sweet crude of Libya. ????

True but we knew this one was different. We stayed for 2014 & 2015 but then we saw this one was different & left in 2016...in hind sight I guess we had it right.

Magnesium taurate is what I take as it has taurine which has been shown to play a role in regulating blood sugar as well as promote lower blood pressure As well as other muscular recovery benefits IMO

Not just tourists.... We left our Thai home in 2016 as we did not want to support a coup government in any way at all. We had hopes of possibly moving back to our Thai house as it finally looked like Thailand was once again going to be free. ????

Watch out they are not familiar with that kind of common sense/ Logic....you will surely confuse them ????

It probably still is ???? Article said mobile app taxi so a grab,uber etc Taxi & TukTuk drivers hate them & dont allow parking in spots Guy with sword is probably a TukTuk or Taxi driver ????

Didn't read the whole thread so may have been mentioned but The lady boy @44 seconds is that popular & clever actually monk that was always chastised for laughing & joking too much online with another popular monk https://www.prachachat.net/general/news-754960 https://www.thaipost.net/x-cite-news/229652/

Come now.... It is Politics that quit Prayut not the other way round Truth is if he didn't storm the place in a coup he would never have been accepted al all

I doubt anyone can help a depressed person especially one they don't know But if your sincere in all your recent messed up mental state posts then really you should A- Seek professional help B- Get out of Thailand There are some folks who should never have come to Thailand They just cannot handle it & it's form of freedom or lack of limits They just implode eventually Really hope you find help before you join the flying club that helps so many expats exit Thailand via a condo railing

He pretends he is not at war with Russia now? Proxy war but war nonetheless

Yup I find Cycling & Swimming best ????

Better yet watch the actual video without the annoying commentary which is only 6 min long instead of 17 min blah blah blah ????

So sorry to read this. RIP ????

Very True & sad to say I also was one who once thought I was safe due to my endurance type training most of my life. Now I am in my 60's & still doing quite well but my eyes have now seen many endurance type athletes suddenly have heart attacks or worse drop dead. Plus many other unrelated problems I also have become aware that endurance athletes can have CAD as much or more than non athletic folks due to the tearing down nature of high intensity over time. "Previous studies have documented the higher prevalence of coronary atherosclerotic plaques among highly trained endurance athletes compared with non athletes" Don't get me wrong I think & so does the cardiologist that I speak with that I am better off overall for it (exercising) But I think those who judge their future needs for health care based on the exemplary diet & exercise they now have may be in for a surprise. Yes of course clean living beats a bad diet/smoking/lack of exercise but it is not a impenetrable shield for possible future problems which may or may not be down to genetics or sheer luck. We age & things are subject to wear & tear self inflicted or not.

Has to be a wind up Six pages of yada yada yada but OP only ever made the original post If not a troll then pretty sad state of affairs when a 42 year old man needs relationship advice on a public forum & cannot decide on a simple matter of visiting GF's family or not Ok I'll play along..... My Advice would be for this girl to run from this sorry excuse of a man ????

Lot of truth in that ????

I think the whole medical/health tourism was very viable a few years ago but, I think that ship has already sailed when in recent years Thailand not only raised their medical prices but also was in the news allowing hospitals to double charge non Thai patients It's now perfectly legal for Thai public hospitals to charge foreigners double for medical treatment Instead it seems India is now the place many head to for quality & better price when it comes to medical Lastly there are often reports these days of outright price gouging of those caught in a emergency situation in Thailand.

With the exception of Bhutan where isn't it pronounced? This whole "Wealth inequality" mentality these days is similar to some places wanting all players to be winners. No 1st,2nd,3rd etc But please show us examples of places where there is no such thing. It is a get it your dang self service life. Yes some were born to a silver spoon but someone before them earned it Same as many of today's 1st gen richest people ...They had an idea they worked it & they were rewarded Yes they are not equal in wealth to you or I but they earned it & probably created thousands of jobs for others in the process A for Mega Corps.... The mega corps got to be "Mega" because customers supported them Those same customers should not later complain that they got too big as they got too big on the complainers dollars The same complainers are the ones who actually put the mom & pop stores out of business by not supporting them. Instead preferring the better prices at the Mega Corps

No & I do the same as your daughter Meaning use my AT&T sim in Thailand on WiFi calling. Works great But yes no problems when back home I still receive my US banking notifications as usual We also do the opposite with my wife's TrueMove H sim & use it here in the USA on WiFi calling & it is able to get OTP sms from Thai banks which makes it a great tool

Well only those who would eat such processed garbage are being fed ???? Like the saying goes "People who love sausage and respect the law should never watch either one being made," These days I don't eat sausage or watch politics ???? Kidding aside the wife & I gave up processed foods awhile back & feel so much better overall

I have never heard of such a middle man & have transferred millions of baht out of Thailand using Bangkok Bank. But I never used the mobile app. Instead I go into the bank. I was sending max of 1.5 million per time & charge was roughly $30/1000thb (although this was couple years ago now) You may also want to check your receiving bank Is it a major bank or a credit union etc? Some smaller institutions do not receive directly but go thru another bank & that could also have a fee

Years ago when I tried this is what I found too. Shipping was impossible & time lines too long for delivery China seller do ok by sending bulk to a shipper in main countries...like USA then they ship from that stock etc

Thanks & yes I agree & did get a chest x-ray today from a urgent care clinic. They said No radio graphic evidence for acute cardio pulmonary disease (Which I was happy to hear as I was worried it may be a cardiac cough) Lungs expanded & clear no pneumothorax everything normal so that is good. I do live part time in a active volcanic area & exercise daily 60% outdoors for hours at a time So after years of this it may just be affecting me more now. Wonder which is worse volcanic gasses or Chiang Mai air during burn season? ????

Actually I did get into a urgent care place today & did get the chest x-ray I wanted Happy it was all clear But I did ask the LPNR I saw about why the long waits. Was it more patients or less doctors. She said less doctors for sure + increased population here She said majority of doctors we had were all baby boomers & now they are all retiring leaving a vacuum

Maybe somewhat true about reducing the lower cost of living in Thailand but...... I wish I was there now. I am here in the US & in a State that is expensive cost of living & yet you get almost nothing for your insurance When we visit Thailand 3 months a year I am happy to pay for diagnostics I may want & can just get them NOW We often think of moving back full time to Thailand but then say ...yeah but insurance is free here (Medicare) But truthfully it is crap For instance just today ... Tried to see a doctor & am told soonest will be Late August maybe early Sept! I am in great health eat well, exercise no smoking etc but I have had a nagging dry cough for a few weeks. I tried a few different ways & at various locations to get seen & always the same reply...Late Aug. If I were in Thailand now I would walk into a fine hospital & be seen & diagnosed today I'm certain & at a fair price So yes you pay there but at least are served nicely/promptly At this rate I may as well wait till Oct when we are back there. But hate to think of having a cough that long.(If that is the case) I think that is why so many here are seen then diagnosed with something serious as it festers so long
