  1. I just saw this & thought it was quite good. I don't watch TV or this guys show but saw it on the internet today
  2. That was interesting to read. I had never heard of those tests before I am curious though for that price why they didn't suggest a CTA or if not that maybe a calcium score?
  3. Anymore? Same as it ever was actually Since we have been in Thailand we have seen corruption pretty much everywhere Including & not limited to... Doctors Lawyers Police (obviously) Monks Teachers Business large & small Government workers from Immigration thru Land Tax/ Property Sale office The list is long & instead probably better to list the non-corrupted if & when I ever find one ????
  4. Seven 12 day periods??? Sheesh???? This was extortion..... this was grand larceny, threatening I know poor Thai's who have been sentenced to 2 YEARS in prison for picking mushrooms in the wrong place These poor cops probably sitting in aircon rooms in the prison Some countries would cut their left hands off send a message
  5. What is this guy a footballer? He sure can cry wolf ???? Three months to recover from a kidney stone pffft
  6. HINT: He was asking a question & for maps......whoosh
  7. Ah the woke crew on steroids again ????
  8. Correct 1763 is the form But keep an eye on them/your account Took me two tries as they continued to try & bill me. They also really work on trying to scare you into keeping it ????
  9. With all due respect this is the whole problem with Thailand in a nutshell People want their cake & eat it too ???? On the one hand loathe corruption like when the cops shake you down Yet love corruption when it suits their needs Sorry you cannot have one without the other. Thai cops are the dullest tools in the shed. Trying to have it both ways will only confuse them
  10. They have always been told "Money Talks" in Thailand So can we blame them to trying to hear?
  11. Better let the Bangkok Cops know ???? They have been extorting charging some 27,000 baht for using this unofficial visa ???? https://aseannow.com/topic/1284573-ill-never-set-foot-in-thailand-again-damning-review-by-taiwanese-celeb-extorted-by-thai-police/
  12. Until this banana republic starts actually prosecuting such actions it will continue as usual Not Prayuth will look into it...Not they have been transferred.. But instead prosecute & jailed for X amount of years
  13. A lot of folks have that cough going months after Covid. Don't know if it is considered long covid but its real My daughter who is in her 30's had that cough for months after My wife & I had the cough too but only 2-3 weeks after The village where we have a home is like a cough fest Go in 7-11 that is all you hear like Muzak but coughing
  14. Bangkok was bad on Jan 14-15 when we were there. ????
  15. Your confused about my post which relates only to Labour minister promises nationwide crackdown against foreigners with no Work Permit "taking jobs from Thais" Alone period We have a home in Thailand & are quite happy when we are there too. But their lack of government/leadership is doing none any favors especially the Thai's themselves
  16. This is why Thailand will always be a pimple on the butt of the world Look at any western country do you hear such xenophobic nonsense? Of course not besides look at all the countries Thai's run towards seeking employment. Look & learn Thailand..Even countries like the USA gave my wife a SS# & work permit one week after she arrived on a tourist visa a couple of decades ago! You know why? because they know folks will work anyway same as all the Burmese in Thailand do but the difference is USA gets a cut in the form of taxation But nah Thailand rather make scraps by taxing visitors a whopping 300 baht each pffft This is why Thailand remains a backwater... stagnant & looking always for handouts
  17. Sadly my experience as well The urologist I had that wanted to do surgery immediately was supposedly the best & taught as well as worked the main CM hospitals 7 years later no problems as I didnt heed his advice. The other one at the big CM private hospital that sounds like Bangkok also had two faulty reports & tried for more $$$ tests which I declined It is rather scary once you realize that even in the medical profession of Thailand it is often just about $$$ first People always go on about how cheap Thailand medical tests & minor procedures are but never mention how expensive wrong diagnosis can be (if not caught in time)
  18. This explains all the weed shops opening in Bangkok
  19. Now that's a pretty good backhanded compliment
  20. Exactly! Sometimes I wonder if these people also call folks anti -drinkers anti-smokers anti-meat eaters Are single people anti-marriage? etc etc etc
  21. 555 you sound like you think they ever really checked at all ????
  22. He has only come forward with this now to cover for Anutin greeting all the Chinese arrivals without a mask
  23. Comprehension lacking there? Everyone knows there are countless variations year after year,,,covid will be the same storm in a teacup But some folks (you likely) should run right in each & every time for your "new" booster ????
  24. I wonder if I could borrow their crystal ball for some forex trading ???? Kidding aside I always wonder why they make these sweeping statements? I mean it does not take a genius to know you increase incoming by a few million from a country with a high infection rate & yes much more than likely you will have a bit of a spike.... I'm not saying it is a big problem for most as covid is quite survivable these days. But yeah these sweeping statements does them no favors long term ????
