No, that's not what I read. It basically says that an expat could be considered ordinarily resident but it would be up to someone to decide based on whether or not it can be shown that when they left they intended to return. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievably insensitive comments. You claim erroneously that chemo offers no hope and then use the fact that it is expensive in attempt to peddle a first phase trial of a drug that has so far only shown a little promise in fighting cancer cells in a test tube yet none at all in patients and is not even available yet for trial in Thailand, ridiculous stuff that is best kept within your head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be ashamed to have to put my hand out on a go fund me, or other money raising effort. If you live here you absolutely need insurance. If you don't have it, you should be in a position to cover all of your bills. Relying on the generosity of strangers is just wrong. I do accept in this case, someone else started the funding. I just renewed by medical insurance, knowing the clocking is ticking and one day good, the other not so much. I wish him luck and making it back to NHS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post NightSky Posted March 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Its astonishing how people vent so much anger and jealousy and call people about a go fund me page to help with expensive cancer treatment. The guy had already declated he’s going to pay his own way. You don’t have to donate so why all the name calling. I buy insurance here but it’s high cost and doesn’t even cover for more than 1million baht. It was a scam and I bought it in my 30,s I’ve now got a pre existing condition so I’m stuck with it and to be honest I doubt they would pay out if I needed it. Its all a scam. People who pay taxes here and social fund for Thai employees Like I do should be entitled to the social care system but I’m not allowed to join it. I pay out for everyone else but I doubt I would be covered myself even after buying insurance. Its all good and well calling others when you are young or you havnt needed to use your insurance yet due to a scare that is then labelled pre existing condition. Its a scam so don’t blame the patient. Instead blame the system and the rip off insurers and those treating medical care like a business.

Some sound to me like they are legitimate. While others may not be so. The OP vlogger may be an exception to the truly needy fund people, but if he does as he says and pays out of his pocket, maybe he'll refund the donations.

twocatsmac Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Generally go fund me pleas in Thailand are linked to young idiot tourists falling off motorcycles or Chaing Mai vandals spraying ancient buildings. Not seasoned expats offering advise through monetised YouTube channels and then doing the opposite. Id suggest to a few above that this is the reason many people find these schemes distasteful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad how posters keep using this story just as a vehicle to continually spout their uniformed opinions rather than read/watch is being discussed first. _________ Again for everyone who does not want to watch the vdo.... he has NOT started a gofundme and his post is advice to us all to take out insurance, and he is in a private hospital becuase he chose it and is able pay for his own treatment. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Greenriver Posted March 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) I have no problems people using GoFundMe when suddenlies Accidents and health- problems occured. But when it comes to these v loggers in Pattaya I Must say I hate it. They live in Thailand and living their dream. On YouTube They tell people How to do This and do that. And begging for money all the time for barfines, Beer and more girls. Their lifestyle is disgustning. And They filming out in public without permission. All for YouTube and their pocket. When Kevin goes to BKK for more treathments I know He will stay close Soi 4 Nana Plaza and Enjoy his GoGundMe money «very Well» there.

Popular Post crouchpeter Posted March 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2019 O>K> so lets step back and take an objective view1. Cancer is anaerobic so get lots of oxygen and starve it.2. Cancer can only live in an acidic environment - so switch to alkaline, half a teaspoon of baking SODA in a glass of water every morning.3. You live in Thailand Marijuana is a proven cure for cancer and guess what it's both legal and available in Thailand.4. A different attitude e.g. a positive one would go a long way.5. Chok dee.

shackleton Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 14 hours ago, connda said: You may have missed the point. ..."with out it I could not afford to pay the cost of my Cancer treatment" - at Bumrungrad I believe you said - A high priced private hospital. Now had you received treatment at a government hospital, I contend you could have afforded the treatments out of pocket. That is the recourse of those without premium insurance coverage as you had. But- for whatever reason - those who have the coverage seem to always laud the fact. Why? Often we criticizes Thais for 'one-upping' there fellow citizens in a "I'm better off than you, so I'm better than you' sort of way. That's all. Why compared yourself to those who don't have what you have. Again, "There but for the grace of God go I." That keeps me humble, personally. I have insurance and enough money to cover my expenses. But I also am very aware that the wind of fate are fickle - one day you have; the next day you don't. Things happen. The day the tides of fortune turn against you - then what? at the time I was diagnosed with Prostate cancer I was in a other hospital getting treated for a kidney problem when they found out I had Prostate Cancer I was recommended by the doctor there to go to Bumrungrad who were the only hospital at the time doing HDR Brachytherapy in 2014 you seem to have a personal problem with people having private insurance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon43 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 he has NOT started a gofundme.. True, his friend started the GFM. But according to the video blog from his hospital bed, he said that he's quite happy for people to donate... (as you would be when someone is giving you money for nothing). Kev says that he has his own money to cover his treatment costs - Any chance of him publically donating all this GFM money to Father Ray's??
