Pink Id card for foreigners
connda replied to Enquiry123's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yep. It was "Easy-Breezy" at my local Amphur office. Yellow book too. -
Phuket grocery owner busted for illicit kratom water trade
connda replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
You mean the stuff which is on sale up and down Thailand's highways by mobile vendors? I guess they are going to start filling the prisons again. Up next - Cannabis Dispensaries. -
You choose to see her. If you don't wish to see elderly doctors, go elsewhere.

Aircraft departing from Thailand's Utapao Airport crashed in Afghanistan
connda replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The plane has been found, 4 survivors, patient and husband not found and assumed dead. Easily found on a Internet search. -
Get a lawyer and have your assets transferred to a Trust which can only be accessed by her at a specific time, like her 21st birthday.

This thread borders on a racist rant. You live in a global village people, especially if you are expatriated. Try getting along with all of its inhabitants regardless of the race, ethnicity, religion, or the country that they were born into (not like anyone had a choice). But we all have a choice to seek peace and cooperation at an individual level as our Western diplomacy is also in a tail-spin as well. I'm amazed at the vile tropes that keep getting echoed here, especially about non-farangs. Farang exceptionalism! Ya'll do believe you are special right. Better than the rest of the world, eh? And guess what. International student exchange is an excellent place to begin.

Hey. Why not start a Russian-bashing thread next. Then follow up with any other ethnicity and countries you've been taught (indoctrinated) to viscerally hate. And I'd send my kid to a Russia school too. Or India. If you people haven't noticed lately, but the Western educational system is in a tail-spin, Ivy League schools and all, as the number of students capable of studying, no less understanding or excelling at Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics had crashed and burned. "The US has the best school system in the world." Believe what you wish. Furries? Participation awards? Yeah, Western education rocks (and is sinking to the bottom). There is a reason why billionaire investor Jim Rogers who lives in Singapore has his daughters learning Mandarin Chinese. And I have no doubt there are others like him. The future economic power is here in Asia. Roger understands that. And I tend to agree. But - would I send my kid to school in Thailand (it is Asian). Let me think........"Ahhhh, no."

Former Thai boxer severely beats man trying to rape his daughter
connda replied to webfact's topic in Southern Thailand News
Actually, it would be interesting to find out that the kid wasn't a rapist but a boyfriend. -
oral NTHi vaccine for bronchitis - is it available in Thailand
connda replied to simon43's topic in Health and Medicine
Just trying to help. I find it easier to cough up phlegm within my lungs after doing a session or two. Best of luck. -

Wim Hof Breathing. It might help the symptoms. It exercises and expands the lungs. I'm not going to make any claims that "It WIll Cure Your Bronchitis For Sure." I'm just stating that I do it daily and I find I have excellent lung capacity. Also, I have asthma but it does not bother me at all. Today's maximum full-breath hold was 3 minutes 35 seconds. Not bad for a guy in his 70s. I'm sure there are other breathing exercises that can be found, but WHB works well for me. Give it try. You can find it on YouTube. What's there to lose? It's just an exercise. -
I just put it in the cart and pay whatever rings up on the register. The average Thai will find milk unaffordable before most "rich farangs." You think it's expensive now? Wait until the ฿500 Billion THB give-a-way is injected into the Thai monetary supply. Happiness to the people until hyperinflation hits.

Your opinion of eradication of dogs
connda replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
AN should have a "I Hate Dogs" sub-forum. -
Get use to this. The BRICS nations will relatively soon be part of an economic power-house of now "developing and developed nations" buoyed by economic trade and cooperation as opposed to outdated colonial-based sanctions and economic warfare. Personally I welcome this new dawn of global economic cooperation.

There are a couple of different types of expats. 1. Expats who hate the people from countries whom their own country tells them to hate. Therefore is the Geo-political winds of fate shift, suddenly you have to "Leave" because your countries 'enemies' are moving into your neighborhood. 2. Expats who are part of the global village who except people as individuals and not an evil emissary of the country in which they hold a passport or where they were born. I'm the second type. I don't care where people are from. I'm interested in their story and their right to attempt to pursue happiness while living in foreign countries. Personally I can't grasp the visceral hatred some of our fellow expats have for the expatriated citizens and tourist of other countries.

Five Thais out of a job. So foreigners are a national security risk because they may take jobs away from Thais. In the meanwhile, the same people who won't allow foreigners to perform "Thai Only Work" take jobs away from Thais and give the jobs to robots. When are we going to hear about Thais complaining that robots are taking jobs reserved for Thais only? Now there is a logic-trap.

I read that Thailand had formally applied for membership in the BRICS economic forum last year. I'm surprised I missed that. Currently the Thai Chamber of Commerce is getting in gear to support the membership application and interact with the CoC of other BRICS nations. https://www.bricschambers.com/brazil/brics-chambers-in-thailand-2023/
