I'm sure that the first thing the ambulances do with a farang in an accident is take them to the International hospitals, the charges are getting obscene, They are obviously not embarrassed about their charges, Seriously, Only yesterday me and the wife went to Hompro in Chalong, we intended to look at the children's play area on the first floor, anyway the escalators were not working so that was me I had to wait on the ground floor while my wife walked up, we have grand children coming this week, I was waiting on the ground floor and I was using my walker, I was using it to sit down, This Thai woman standing nearby looking at me, I thought she was looking at my walker as many people do, then she said I reminded her of her husband, Does he have a walker like this?, she said yes but he died 3 weeks ago, So I then get the whole story about her husband, He had been in a hospital here in Phuket, it was costing the husbands family 100,000 Baht Per day, jing jing, What could possibly cost 100k a day? his symptoms were similar to mine, his were worse than me, but never 100k per day, Bye the way he spent 2 months in hospital, She tells me. This is in Phuket.
