Sonhia Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Mindset... Thais in general cannot accept no or constructive criticism plus alternative reasoning, the mind is indoctrinated so hence expectations are far too high. A lack of education plus critical thinking. Its all black and white with nothing in between. Blind lead the blind... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love that song. Whoaa! I never knew there was a song about it! I can't remember where I came across the phrase, but IIRC it had 'full' in it: I'd rather have a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

Sydebolle Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Wrap up of "hospital": a place of insecurity, fear and stress a place you're exposed to counterparts talking about something you - in general - do not quite understand a place where pricing can be ferocious and, in many cases, not clear when entering a place where monetary shortage results in treatment shortage a place where no guarantees can be given in many places a place which can ooze (seriously) bureaucracy upstairs, downstairs a society problem where nurses in general and doctors in particular are elevated to semi-divine positions which, over time, can lead to arrogance, rudeness and impoliteness a society problem for those who cannot afford treatment and subsequently are herded around in governmental institutions Consequence is, that those who can afford it go for private care as it is closer to what the customer (here patient) expects. Go figure ......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connda Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 So what is being admitted is that not only can't they control the carnage on the road, but they are pretty much unable to control a crowd of people gathered in a hospital? Yeah, that's about right. I wonder how many other countries allow wholesale slaughter on their roads and riots in their hospitals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not there to give directions to the cafe, and on weekend nights plenty of assaults on staff and patients occur, so plenty of " tugs and bullies" there too. Thank for the yawn. just for your information, in the uk, if you attack people, you can be arrested, fined, jailed by the courts, what happens in Thailand. ? please tell me. oh ok i know, at best nothing, at worst, a wai and a 500 baht fine. or if your connected , you get nothing and the person assaulted, gets threatened to shut up, get it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You don't live here do you. Thank you for the useless comparison. Ps, There are no real police in Thailand. just the toy town ones collecting money at the side of the road.

dallen52 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Armed security guards.. God forbid. Its a public hospital. If you have ever spent time in one of these places, it begs believe what goes on there. Families move in, bring mattresses and blankets. The endless supply chain of foods that they bring and consume. Families are arguing all the time. (Well I think that is what they are doing. Might just be talking normally) It's at the boiling point level because of many factors. Not just the standard of treatment. And they want to put armed guards in there. Fix the problem. Limit the amount of visitors who are allowed. And the amount of time they can stay. Improve the quality of care. Paracetamol doesn't fix everything. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"if" you can out figure out that you do NOT have a brawl outside of a hospital, then you are beyond repair. And for me to talk "logically" would be an insult to me at first. Anyone who brazenly thinks that they are above any any law OR a reasonable stance with whatever, then all I can say is step back. Those simple instructions are without any understanding. And you wonder why your peers(women ) even want to even talk? Whatever...Focus upon whether fellow thai women even have any semblance to even understand your whatever. I live in the US...and you live elsewhere- therefore your call....your hopefully-directed whatever. And hence, I grow tired of your whatever this and that. And as such....you or anyone else is perhaps a way out. "Whatever...Focus upon whether fellow thai women even have any semblance to even understand your whatever." Pardon???

However, my Thai wife assures me that the mindset is that if someone is in hospital, then the more visitors they have, the better the patient feels - that all their family and friends care about them. Also, if the patient is fortunate enough to have a private room, then someone has to be with them ALL the time, in case of emergencies. I am surprised that no one has yet suggested that guards be "armed" with tazers - not guns. Just as effective in "face to face" situations, no dangers to other patients, staff, visitors or equipment from ricochets or "bad aims", and no blood or gore to clean up afterwards! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Human adult males tend to become violent and aggressive when put in a situation of relative poverty. (To compete for females.) By relative poverty I mean inequality. If there is a hope to stop this trend the authorities responsible need to identify the cause of the trend and attack those issues. Penalizing those responsible may be somewhat of a deterrent but then the crime has already been committed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to agree with that private room thing. I was in pattaya public with acute pancreatitis. Touch and go for a while. Yes the private room had a place for my partner to sleep too. Hourly observation they called it. Although the nurses were excellent. Fortunate enough to have a great charge nurse who had lived in the UK for 13 years. 4500 baht a night. Room. plus the meds and treatment. Although I was required to put 50,000 cash down before admission. And they don't claim the insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
