Rather than restrict its usage? You're contradicting yourself. Would you ban alcohol instead of banning kids form buying it?Wed, 27 May 2026 12:41:12 +0000Almost certainly not from what I can understand.

I was taught one man can change the world. We know that's the case with evil men like Putin, Trump. and Netanyahu.

(casino talk ) 55 It was not so easy for me to stay in the "countryside" when i was younger. Did it a few times, but with no internet or the magic of cell phones it was tough. Nowadays i highly recommend it for those seeking a healthy life , and especially great for those who can work remotely. I was at our garden today , mixing mud and planting grass. 3 hours with my strong as an ox Pong . Shower feels great afterwards, and homemade food dee licious. Mostly deleting my Substack inbox daily...after a glance or two .

Oh and if you save 5 hours by not filling up, or charging at gas stations, that means you only drive around the block. You could have bought a bicycle for that instead.Wed, 27 May 2026 12:29:28 +0000Here's a twist. My query was about people having Part A and Part B. However, many expats don't pay for Part B. For my example scenario where you're flying back for some defined major surgery. wouldn't the bulk of that expense be covered by Part A?Wed, 27 May 2026 12:29:08 +0000I only watched part of this. It's very long. The guy is Israeli. His opinions sounds a bit "New Agey". He wants peace and a 2 state solution, but it can only happen if Israel gets a better form of govt, but falls short on saying how he expects that to happen? Revolution by Israelis? Might be complete nonsense. Wasting too much time on this Israel conflict. But a very rational and decent Israeli who seems hopeful.Wed, 27 May 2026 12:28:40 +0000I don't believe a word out of Trump's mouth.Wed, 27 May 2026 12:28:19 +0000GeneralWed, 27 May 2026 12:27:40 +0000On April 21, 2025, Urs Fehr was supposed to begin serving his sentence: one month in prison without parole for intentional bodily harm. But when the Region 8 Supreme Court handed down its verdict, Fehr had vanished without a trace. Police sources confirm: The Swiss national fled Thailand via Suvarnabhumi Airport, presumably back to Switzerland. An arrest warrant was issued, but the authorities are baffled. "We will find him," promised a high-ranking official. Interpol has been called in to hunt down the fugitive. "We don't know where he is," admitted Lieutenant Colonel Laddawan Waenkaew. Even Colonel Nikorn Chuathong, police chief of Thalang, where the incident occurred, shrugged helplessly: "I haven't seen him." The authorities' embarrassing inability to apprehend Fehr is fueling doubts about Thailand's security and justice system. Niphit Intarasombat, Dr. Fehr's lawyer, Thandao is stunned. In a Facebook post on May 23, 2025, he revealed that he had applied for a travel ban on Fehr – to no avail. "The court did not grant my request," he lamented. This decision enabled Fehr's escape. The lawyer emphasized that his client does not seek revenge, but justice. Dr. Thandao's silent protest on the beach has sparked a movement that is shaking confidence in Thailand's justice system. How could a convicted foreigner escape so easily? Urs Fehr's escape has made international headlines. Thai police are now working with Interpol to track down the 46-year-old. A high-ranking official vowed: "He must serve his sentence!" However, the chances of catching Fehr in Switzerland are uncertain. His disappearance exploited a legal loophole: Because it was an appeal, no travel ban was imposed. This negligence outrages the public and casts a dark light on the rule of law in Thailand.

I download them monthly as they appear so already had them! They could be uploaded into the visa application. Seemingly our banks are different. Without looking, I'd guess that the visa page will accept a couple of mb at least. Obviously my passport scan is whatever size I want it to be. May I constructively suggest that if you have this issue again, a simpler method might be to open each bank statement, either downloaded or on line in a browser, then use Snipping Tool (part of Windows) to get an image of it, then paste that into a Word doc. Then save the Word doc as a PDF if you need to. I've made many a PDF that way. (If you're using a Mac I assume(!) that there's an equivalent program to Snipping Tool but I don't know Apple) Another hint is if you're looking at your bank statements in Chrome browser, sometimes the size varies if, instead of downloading it, you "Print to PDF" then save the PDF. No, when I said 25 minutes, I based it on my personal experience - YMMV it seems. 🤔Wed, 27 May 2026 12:20:28 +0000
