I am looking for a recommendation for a good English school as well as Japanese school. The potential student is a recent Ram grad whe can speak english fairly well but would like to sharpen her skills for job hunting.

I am aware of "British Council" at Siam square but was wondering if there were other quality schools. I have no idea about Japanese language schools.

Thanks

      Renewing retirement visa obtained inside Thailand?

      No. It was made quite clear that I had 800k in the bank AND could comfortably satisfy the 65k x 12m requirement.

      Your Two Months Rental Deposit

      Sadly, you are right, most do. The good landlords put the deposit into a separate bank account, that they forget about until the tenant is ready to move out.

      There’s no such thing as ‘Wuflu’. So obviously your whole post is a misrepresentation of fact.

      Saved a Thai from being fined. Good or bad?

      In that case, I assume you agree smoking should be banned so the idiot smokers are protected from themselves, I refer to your logo of a guy smoking a cigarette.

      Getting a credit card

      You can top up that limit by adding cash, say 100k. Interest free, of course. Just sayin'.

      No, they didn't. In fact, in the UK, and many other countries, they encouraged people to get out and exercise.

      Not everyone has a VA Gold Card, although you still have not confirmed what pension you are actually on.

      Electric Vehicles in Thailand

      A 28 Sep 2024 The Nation news article....be sure to read past the headline as it looks like August registrations of EVs jumped way up....highest of any month this year (even higher than the big number in January). Maybe "sluggish" vehicle sales/registrations for most of 2024 is coming to an end. https://www.nationthailand.com/news/general/40041876 Thailand sees a 13 percent decline in registration of new electric vehicles SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2024 1 minute read However, trend of increasing demand continues in 2024 As many as 1,876,356 electric vehicles (EVs) were registered in Thailand in the first eight months of 2024, a nearly 13 percent drop compared to the same period last year. The Department of Land Transport (DLT) said on Friday that registrations had declined by 280,091 vehicles from the 2,156,447 in the same period last year. The department said that despite the lower number of registered EVs in 2024, the trend of new EV registrations was still growing, especially after January. EV registrations during the year: January: 15,915 units February: 6,259 units March: 7,373 units April: 5,973 units May: 7,969 units June: 7,911 units July: 8,270 units August: 20,658 units. In August, the top five EVs being registered were: passenger vehicles with less than 7 seats (17,980 units), motorcycles (2,158), trucks (233), taxis (168), and tuk-tuk (39). “Electric vehicles are environmentally friendly as they emit zero carbon dioxide,” the department’s deputy director-general, Seksom Akraphand, said. “It is one of the reasons that the adoption of EVs has been growing continually. We believe that the number of EV registrations will keep on growing until the year-end.”

      Australian Aged Pension

      A quick Google of "children sent home to die from hospitals Australia" revealed pages of horror stories. I chose "children" because they are one of the most vulnerable demographic in the community, so you would think they would receive more medical attention. As we are from all different states in Australia, to show it's nationwide, here's just a few. Queensland. https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/we-want-to-know-what-happened-baby-girl-dies-after-being-sent-home-from-queensland-hospital/news-story/c0b6e060bc4eda4e98e33e47b3c46ed6 "There, Toni and her partner Matthew were told their daughter’s breathing would be fine “once the Panadol kicked in” and Lola was discharged after two hours. The following morning, after continuing to monitor their daughter and setting up a mattress in her room, Lola was found lifeless on August 6." NSW. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/article/2024/jul/01/nsw-sepsis-death-pippa-white-coronial-inquest-ntwnfb "Pippa White died on 13 June 2022, two months before her third birthday, after doctors at two central west hospitals wrongly assumed she had an acute viral illness rather than the bacterial infection that resulted in her death." WA. https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/perth-girl-13-dies-days-after-being-discharged-from-hospital-with-flu/news-story/411435730eb4939e1d7d6ce87815734e "Sharney Lee Mitchell stayed overnight at Joondalup Health Campus with influenza A on August 12 but was discharged the next day despite still suffering with aches and pains, according to her family who spoke with 7News. She died five days later at home, with paramedics called to her Perth home unable to save her." Victoria. https://www.9news.com.au/national/meningitis-sick-boy-was-so-much-worse-when-let-go-from-hospital-victoria-health-news/7bb8b727-613d-4160-ad4f-1f0c9adc517f "A severely ill toddler who died of meningitis was discharged from a regional Victorian hospital in a worse condition than when he was admitted, a coroner has heard." SA. https://www.kidspot.com.au/news/tragedy-as-12yo-dies-from-gastro-two-days-after-being-sent-home-from-hospital/news-story/c1bd5c51f3e84fa9eb0af64c8a6638f7 "The parents of a 12-year-old girl are in mourning after their daughter was discharged from a hospital with a stomach ache, only to die a couple of days later." NT. (adult) https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-09-11/family-blames-mans-death-on-nt-health-negligence/104332328 "Nicholas Roma Tipungwuti died of a stroke in May 2022 after he presented to Royal Darwin Hospital and waited over 12 hours to be transported to Royal Adelaide Hospital." TAS. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-05-02/baby-died-after-launceston-general-hospital-failures-coroner/102287910 "A 19-month-old baby girl may still be alive if the Launceston General Hospital had followed its own procedures, a Tasmanian coroner has found." ACT. https://9now.nine.com.au/a-current-affair/canberra-hospital-death-child-rozalia-spadafora/a6b0a82f-133f-485f-a25d-44f6bc91924a "Concerned about her daughter, Katrina took her back to the GP, where she was told to go to Canberra Hospital, the only place where blood tests could be done after hours. Arriving around 7pm on July 4, Katrina said she was told by two nurses to take Rozalia home, and go to the doctor in the morning. And almost 30 hours after Rozalia arrived at Canberra Hospital, she went into cardiac arrest and died." There are many cases similar to these from each state. They are all reasonably recent. Could you honestly look these parents in the eye and tell them Medicare is good? In relation to your friend, I note he had a "freak fall" with severe injuries. Obviously, emergency surgery. However, you don't mention anything about "elective surgery." Have you heard the term before? An example would be a hip or knee replacement. A common procedure in for the elderly. If something like happened to your friend happened to an expat in Thailand, I doubt they would be allowed to board a plane back to Australia, so we are really talking about returning for elective surgery. Here's an Aussie doctor's website on a knee replacement. https://rhysclark.com.au/knee-replacement-surgery/how-much-does-a-knee-replacement-cost-australia/ Public System. "You will be placed on a waiting list for surgery after giving your agreement. This surgical waitlist can be months or years before you get your knee replacement." Private System. " If a knee replacement is advised after evaluating your needs, surgery can usually be scheduled six weeks after your visit to accommodate pre-operative physical therapy." Self Funded. "The entire cost of a knee replacement, including hospital stays, the prosthesis, and surgery expenses, often falls between $25,000 and $35,000." From a Queensland clinic's website. https://coastalorthopaedicsurgery.com.au/how-much-does-a-hip-or-knee-replacement-cost-in-australia/#:~:text=Public waiting lists for hip,but other factors weigh in. "Public waiting lists for hip and knee replacement are out of control; at time of writing it can be 3 years or more from date of GP referral to date of hip/knee replacement surgery in many public hospitals around Australia." If you, and others are happy with "whoever" you get for a surgery, after wait, who knows how long, most likely in daily pain, then fine. I'll go private, chose a top specialist, and get the operation done ASAP, and back to health sooner

      7-Eleven Introduces Convenient PromptPay QR Code Payments Nationwide

      Ok, I'll admit it. I, along with the other 5 billion people who do banking on line are wrong, in spite of the fact that I don't know a single person who's had a problem with it. To me it's no more or less secure than doing transactions on a computer. RE Thai banks, as mentioned I have 3. I also typically have less than 50k baht spread across the 3, with 99%+ of my financial assets held in US institutions. If all 3 Thai accounts were emptied at the same time it would be a minor inconvenience. I'm far more concerned with international transactions set up from my computer than the perils of scanning QR codes at Big C or to buy 20 baht BBQ sticks from a street vendor.
