I have read literally dozens of policies and never seen such a provision.

 

There are provisions that prevent double claims,  of course. And some policies specify that any other insurance must  pay first. But I have never seen a policy that precludes having other insurance.

 

Not saying it doesn't exist but I'd need to actually see such a policy document. It is definitely not the norm and it is hard to imagine why an insurer would want to do this.

my insurance (AXA Germany) has the right to cancel my insurance as soon they know that I have another insurance

watch in internet (youtube or other) ????

Has anybody already asked a Immigration Office, e.g. Bangkok or Pattaya? How are they understanding the new rules?

Obviously you're not Thai, it is extremely affordable for the hiso Thai nowadays. Why do you think they are keeping the baht at such overvalued rates. 

I am not a Thai and I am not a Hiso. Most of us are not Hisos.

I don't think that Switzerland could only live from Hisos.

Btw...the Swiss Franc is also overvalued. The reason is the financial chaos in the world. It is very likely that we will see an economic crash soon. This crash will be worse than all what we have seen before.

Unfortunately Switzerland is so extremely expensive that I cannot imagine to spend holidays there. There are many other nice places on this world which are also nice and much more affordable.

I know what you are saying but look at the Burma/death railway , thousands ride that.

You cannot compare these two places. During the building of the railway thousands of men died.

The cave is just a tourist spot for sensation-seekers. Really annoying...

big business

I will never understand why people are going there. It is just a cave like 5000 others.

herd instinct

Really funny....always discussions about the number of tourists coming to Thailand. For what??

Greed

a one meter tall, 50 kilogram bear came out

Luckily it was not a Grizzly ????

So, is this going to be 400 baht for tourists and 20 baht for Thais?

It is a small trek. I think it will cost 200 Baht.

But if you stay at home it is free for you. ????

Very good that they try to help this area. The nature there is still very beautiful and the people friendly. More tourism in this area will help the local people there.

This man? Most thai drivers have this agenda, better to beat up or kill a taxi driver who had done some traffic error than lose face.

Last night a thai guy in a new SUV was blocking the soi I live in at my village by parking in the middle of the road. 

I honked my horn and that made him furious, he came out of the car and acted like a maniac yelling and screaming, running back and forth. 

I locked my doors and waited for the security guard to arrive.

No way I try to interfere with a lunatic who probably have a gun.

Obviously the psychiatrists have a lot more to do ????

I had a similar experience. I used my horn because another driver ignored my right of way and caused a dangerous situation. On the next traffic light this man came to me and gave me a slap in my face. So think twice before you use your horn or criticize somebody here. If they loose their face they often also loose their control.

Again with using this word.  It has a negative connotation.  Why do you use it?  

What is negative with this word? If you feel like this you should never come to Thailand because mostly every Thai is using it.

Ill never understand angry stupid expats comments here, speaking so bad about Thailand and Thai people while living right there by own choice.  Im an expats and im ashame of reading stupid comments unfounded and unproved. There are people uncivilized, and losing control everywhere, even in your country, does that mean the whole population of your country have a low intelligence? I wish no Thai people read those stupid comments. No wonder farangs are not accepted here, thats because of your stupidity and arrogance toward the country and people who welcome you despite everything you can think

Never criticize people here. They are loosing their face and after that they are loosing their control.
