Must Read Its Happening - Law to Tax Overseas Income Now in Progress
Exactly, I know 2 guys who are looking at moving here in 12 months. Talking to them the other day, they both said, yeh, nah, we will now start looking at other places, like the Philippines for starters. Another m8 just returned home from staying here for 3 weeks, he planned on retiring here in 3 years, and will monitor the situation, again, the Philippines came up. -

Which cooking oil to use?
Misses the point. The objection against seed oils per se (as opposed to their use in junk food etc.) isn't that they contribute to weight gain/obesity more or less than other oils. It's mostly about the linoleic acid, about which you can google more. For example, I won't bother to get into this further, as it's a religious issue with many of our experts going by outdated or biased info (funded by the seed oil/food processing industries and echoed throughout the 'net) and of course supported by strong personal anecdotal evidence. Or practice. Yet common sense alone suggests "natural" oils used over the centuries might well be better than modern processed oils, just as whole foods are likely better for you than processed. -

This may interest a few, like myself, always told to cut back on sugar or may be headed toward D2. Or if you are there and think you're stuck there. Worth a peek no matter. Or simply some advice on eating healthier. Type 1 ... may find some thing to help regulate you diabetes. -

Do you know (Americans SS) to change ?
just fyi, foreign currency conversion fees, if charged, are not generally charged as a flat dollar amount. They're almost always charged as some % amount of the transaction. On the other hand, a lot of U.S. banks also do have a different flat charge, which can be anywhere from $3 - $5, for using an out of network ATM -- which can mean an ATM belonging to a different U.S. banking company or any foreign ATM. If you want to know for sure, you can look at the actual exchange rate on your transactions, and see how that compared to the VISA or MC networks exchange rate websites listed earlier in this thread. If your bank is charging no foreign currency fee, then your actual exchange rate should be very close to the VISA/MC network rates. -

Motorcycle Accident Chachoengsao: Volunteer Rescuer Stabbed While Assisting Injured Rider
Picture courtesy of Khoasod. A volunteer rescuer sustained serious injuries after being mistakenly stabbed while attempting to help an injured woman in a motorcycle accident late last night.At around 20:30 on September 9, two volunteer rescue workers from the Bang Pakong district in Chachoengsao were having dinner at a roadside eatery when they noticed an unusually long traffic jam. Sensing something was wrong, the pair hopped on their motorcycle to investigate the situation. They soon discovered a big bike that had lost control and crossed the median, resulting in a serious injury to a female rider. The rescuers quickly approached the scene to assist the woman, adjusting her arms and legs into a normal position to properly assess her injuries and notify the command centre for immediate medical support. However, the woman’s husband and a coworker were displeased with the rescuers' actions, expressing their frustration with inappropriate language and behavior, accusing them of inappropriately touching her sexually. Despite the rescuers explaining that they needed to evaluate the woman’s condition to inform the emergency centre, the husband and coworker were not receptive and became increasingly agitated. In a dramatic turn of events, the husband and coworker tried to physically attack the rescuers. Luckily, local residents and civil defense volunteers intervened, managing to calm the situation temporarily. The rescuers explained that they were not in uniform because they had been on their way to eat when they stumbled upon the accident. Upon hearing this, the husband and coworker apologised profusely for the misunderstanding, bowing in respect to the rescuers. The rescuers graciously accepted the apology, understanding that alcohol might have been involved. As the situation seemed to be cooling down, police officers arrived on the scene. However, tensions flared again when six or seven more coworkers of the injured woman appeared, hurling more insults at the rescuers. This escalated the situation, leading to an altercation between the newcomers and the locals who had initially intervened to prevent violence. Seeing the chaos unfold, one of the rescuers, identified only as Ton, feared that the conflict might lead to more injuries. He rushed forward to stop the fight, but was tragically mistaken for one of the locals involved in the brawl. In the confusion, one of the coworkers pulled out a knife and stabbed Ton four times in the back, piercing his lungs twice. Ton was rushed to Bang Pakong Hospital in critical condition before being transferred to Phutthasothon Hospital for further treatment. In a positive update on the morning of September 10., hospital staff reported that Ton was out of danger but remains under close observation. Meanwhile, police are actively investigating the incident and searching for the suspect responsible for the stabbing, who remains at large. Video of the incident is below. -- 2024-09-10 Get the ASEAN NOW daily NEWSLETTER - Click HERE to subscribe RPReplay_Final1725943957.mp4 -

How on earth do you Diet in Thailand ?
I have heard from more than one about larger restaurants / hotels selling their oil. It's taken away and re-sold/used by smaller ones. Whether true or not I don't know but wouldn't surprise me? -
