  1. No, they came through a doctor at a doctors surgery. You are mistaken mate
  2. Only 2% of Thais pay tax......there must be many that owe it but just don't pay it An example: 15 years ago my wife owned a restaurant in CM. She had a visit from the taxman. He asked her how much she was making and she said times were tough and she was not making hardly anything after she had paid her staff. The taxman was very sympathetic, did not ask to see the books and they settled on a figure of 500 baht for the year. As it goes she was hardly making any money and what she said was truthful , but she could easily have been fibbing. How many don't tell the truth about thier tax affairs? So now they want to target westerners pensions as we are easy targets
  3. I prick my finger every morning, it's not an issue for me......we do not live in the west. At least you can easily purchase diebetis monitoring equipment...that was not the case 20 years ago so there has been progress
  4. I miss old Bernard......I wouldn't have minded his job at the Post though !
  5. They were knock offs at that price. An original pack of four costs at least 2,000 baht. They can work but you should check that your BP is normal before taking them, fake or otherwise, low blood pressure and any form of sexual enhancement drugs can give you a heart attack. ❤️ Be careful
  6. Nor did Bernard Trink 😆
  7. In previous years when pollution is very very bad planes have been diverted to other airports. I have not seen any reports of that happening this year
  8. Not in Hua Hin.....property is the same price for buying or rental Food is a similar price Beers the same I am spending no more now than when I lived in Chiang Mai I can't speak for the islands but islands are always more expensive but you can travel all the way down south to Surat Thani and it's cheap...but HH is as far as I wanted to go as it has everything a westerner needs and is only 3 hours from Bangkok
  9. Maybe they are changing thier minds about that now......smokey season should be long gone by now....but it's still going on
  10. Regrettably I left my "forever home" in CM last September after 20 years because of the terrible burning season last year. I relocated to Hua Hin. Obviously looking at the pollution this year it seems I made the correct decision. I miss my mates as does my wife though. We already came back to visit in January and will go again in August. I hope that one day the government gets a handle on this as there could well be many more people like me that are not prepared to put up with it, turning CM into a ghost town. If you don't need to be there, then don't be there and potentially harm yourself, especially if you are a pensioner like me with health issues. It was stressful, but doable to sellup- buy and move.
  11. If you went to Ram you did not see Dr.Chalermpong or you would not have needed to make this post Suggest you make an appointment to see him
  12. The FULL STORY was not available when I made that post. I can read and am not stupid .....but I am sure you will come back with a comment that says I am no doubt😩
  13. Have they caught the perpetrator If they know he is a martial arts expert they must know who he is?
  14. It was mentioned earlier that they do not give out appointments for marriage visas there any longer.
