i think, if you tell them you are from switzerland, that should work much better ...

it sounds like my mother, we took 5 years care of her, she lived with us in our home. but i and my family couldn't anymore, now she lives in an "alzheimer home"! we do visit her regularly. our relationship to my mother is now better than before ... even her dementia has worsen ... it was after 5 years the right decision, our health has started to suffer ...

just because you don't remember doesn't mean there wasn't air pollution ... i relocated from chiang mai in 2005 because of the air pollution!

nothing has changed, business as usual ... https://aqicn.org/country/thailand/

why do you think the swiss pension is barred from taxation in thailand? as far as I know, that is incorrect! there are a lot of incorrect information and rumours about the new tax law ... luckily i do get my pension in few years time, therefore i don't have to worry too much yet ...

just as an example (for switzerland), khun nathanan mentions that swiss pensioners need not worry about taxes due to a double tax agreement. however, individuals residing outside switzerland don't pay any taxes in switzerland, and the pension received abroad is not taxed by the swiss government! i think khun nathanan is wrong in his conclusion! i believe the swiss people have to fill a tax return and pay tax for their pension in thailand ... the entire situation could become a chaotic mess, with endless bureaucracy, and each tax office establishes its own regulations ...

sorry, but the whole thing was rather embarrassing ... no worth to watch 😔

the NMC batteries are one reason, why i am no longer interested in the volvo ex30 or hyundai ioniq 6. but i would be also concerned about the (not existing) dealership's network. if you live near bangkok, i think it would be fine. additionally, i doubt that all the new ev car companies will survive in the next few years. we will certainly see a significant market consolidation, with more than just a few bankruptcies!

drop this issue. sell your condo. 😉

last night someone at the cat bar told me the same story, so it has be the true ... 🍺🍺🍺

i wonder if all of you people avoiding any shopping centre parking, because nowadays so many mall's have EV charching stations. just tell us, why do mall's (eg. central group) do install EV charger, if it is soooo dangerous ...

you are right, you need to look at the overall picture ... (not just one hour) my definition of 'pretty good' would be AQI under 50 for most of the week / days ...

the air is at the moment not so terrible, but far away from good... It is still unhealthy!

ok, sorry my bad!

maybe in a few decades (but for sure not in a few years) there will be a better alternative to bev with less "disadvantages", but just maybe! who do you call a gambler?

i have a different view on this: if your air con filter reduces the pm2.5 level from eg. 50 µg/m3 to 40 µg/m3, the air is still unhealthy! my suggestion, use an air purifier to get to a pm2.5 level at least under 10 µg/m3. using the air con to clean a polluted air a little bit will not help your health / will not make a different!

i wonder what the next step from khun tony will be... it seems he hasn't changed at all, he never has engouh, like 20 years ago, when he got away with so many things! knowing that he's played the system (the thai people) again, i think he should stay quiet and avoid any publicity. but i got the feeling this is not the end of the shameful play from khun tony and his sheeps ...

I do not think many people believe it ... the unbelievable is how many people just do accept it ... the injustice ... the election steeling ... the draconic penalties for the normal people and the rich people get away with it ... but it seems that is a thai thing ...

purchase a PM2.5 meter, and you'll see that your solution isn't effective against high polluted air at all. the only thing you achive is, your air conditioner will need to work harder and consume more electricity ...

that is wishful thinking! that would mean all the political cards would have to be played new. ... shame, shame, shame... (i forgot, these people do not know any shame!)

i was impressed by the interior quality of the deepal car, which even features an automatic sunshade (the suv only). however, i don't like the design of the taillights; they look odd to me. also, the performance figures aren't quite up to what i prefer to have ...

some very good answers have already been given regarding air pollution / air purifier just some points from my personal perspective: - use a pm2.5 meter. air pollution often reaches unhealthy levels that are neither visible nor smellable! - please note that AQI and pm2.5 µg/m3 are two different units of measurement. many air purifiers have a built-in pm2.5 µg/m3 meter, while most apps and websites display the value of air pollution in AQI. - the size of the air purifier depends on several factors, such as the airtightness of your house/room, your location (north or south), whether it is a bedroom (quiet fan) or a workspace... for eg chiang mai, i would recommend a CADR (m3/h) that is at least 3 times higher than the room volume. you need to consider not only the square meters but also the room height, which results in cubic meters (m3). - it is important that replacement filters should be easily available. whether the filter is 99% effective or only 92%, in my opinion, is negligible. more important is not to use the air purifier only when the air quality is extremly poor! start to use the air purifier when the air starts to be unhealthy ... - about 9 years ago, i bought my first air purifier. since november, my 4 air purifiers have been in use depending on the air quality. when the air purifiers are on, my target value for the pm2.5 is to remain below 5 µg/m3. - for larger rooms where quick air purification and quiet operation are important, i recommend using 2 air purifiers. - inexpensive air purifiers also serve the purpose of cleaning the air. just hold the pm2.5 meter at the air outlet. but they are often loud and cheaply made. - expensive air purifiers come with many features that the average person rarely uses, unless they are allergic. - closing the windows does not reduce the PM2.5 level. no air conditioner can effectively reduce a high level of PM2.5, only air purifiers with HEPA filter are. if you'd like to take it a step further, consider installing a system with positive pressure ...

" .... I think it silly to buy a new car because you think it will save you money, because nine times out of ten it will not ..." that might have been the reality 30 years ago, as obtaining independent and accurate information about cars was quite challenging. however, that's not the situation today. if someone like to save some money and buys the "wrong" car nowadays, the main fault lies with the buyers who didn't do their homework properly. or those who are not financially savvy!

did you check the remote battery?
