Thailand’s smog showdown: Clearing the air with a bold 30% cut
Yessir, gonna cut that pollution - I have my own 2.5 micron meter - this morning at 4 AM in Prawet District of Bangkok, the reading ws 56 - about 20 points above the WHO recommendation of health air. I see more days in BKK polluted than I did while living in CM. Even if they could stop the polluters here in Thailand, all the surrounding countries burn everything too and even though they are mostly in the same ASEAN group, they have never been able to get any otber country to stop their pollution either. Good luck. Sure hope it succeeds and that Thailand can convince their own citizens to stop polluting and then maybe neighbors will heed the call too. -

What do you buy online mostly ?
I don't understand how they correlate. I love music, always have, many styles, and collect the best of those. I can go to my collection and take a box of cd's I'd like to hear while driving somewhere, which is the main place where I listen to them. I do also collect Dvd's, fishing equipment and hunting gear for the same reason. Part time entertainment. -

My advice to alter your medication has helped a little but not 100%. Keep trying until you get it right. -

ICE vs EV, the debate thread
Don't worry Toyota's revolutionary new engines and EV batteries (always just around the corner in anti-EV videos/articles) will make Toyota worldwide sales soar in the near future (another always just around corner). 😜😁 And I just love how that Toyota Europe Newsroom release refers to Toyota "hybrid" models as "electrified" sales/models although most of these models just have a small traction battery & small electric motor to "assist" in some driving scenarios the primarily combustion engine. Kinda like being a mixed breed of 90% combustion and 10% electric. Using "electrified" terminology might imply to some the Toyota hybrids are true EVs and Toyota is pressing full speed ahead in transitioning to fully electric vehicles. But hey, it's good salesman language for selling hybrids. -

Expats in Pattaya nasty ?
Georgia - given your recently threads its as if you are developing (or already have) a strong anti-farang bias.... (there are a couple of others on this forum who can't help themselves denigrate other westerners at any opportunity). Thai said: on the stinky thing... Yep - 'People' can often stink... Family and I were in a lift the other day a Westerner and his Wife were in there, one of them (I assume the other foreigner) was stinking of body odour... no excuses there, he could surely afford laundered clothes and to take a shower, & use deodorant. Then just yesterday we had some work men over.... by the end of the day one of them was reeking of body odour, foul enough to smell it outside, meanwhile the other two seemed 'ok'. I think some people just stink more than others - but showering at least twice per day and always wearing freshly laundered clothes is an absolute must IMO - if I've so much as 'drawn a sweat' I always change my clothes when given a chance. ------------ On another note... a few weeks ago in hospital I was getting some 'pre-treatment checks'... (getting some blood taken)... One nurse (slightly older) says to the other (in Thai)... "he smells so nice"... ... the other nurse (younger).. comes and sits next to me... then responds... (in Thai again)... "Yes, he does smell so nice, really, really".... I smile and say thank-you in Thai... they then erupt in giggles, ask me if I can understand Thai, to which I reply in Thai, "Yes, I understand and speak a little"... we then have a conversation in Thai as they both get closer "smelling me" !!!... the older nurse then asks, "do you have a Thai Wife ?".... I answer yes... she then giggled... "don't tell her about this !!!"... A similar event happened again (after staying over night - minor surgery), I was able to shower... When a different nurse came in to see to give me my medication... (my was was present)... the nurse asked my wife... "he smells so nice, what is he wearing"... Wife and I laughing because this seemed to be an on going thing over a few days.... ...Meanwhile... I remember threads on here with Westerners stating how they get offended by women's strong perfume burning the nostrils, how Thai's hate strong smells of perfume and aftershave etc... ... ... Clearly Thai's like a 'pleasantly smelling' (not overpowering) odour of another person.. ... Clearly some 'miserly stinkers' are offending people with their 'I just use a bit of aluminium stick'.... they probably don't know they still have 'body odour'... ... Then there are the blatant stinkers !!!.... Personally, I think the biggest cause of stinkers is poorly laundered clothes... where antibacterial washing powder is not used and the 'stinky bacteria' are never quite fully washed away. I've had this in other countries... whereby I get my clothes laundered, then come back dry and smelling ok, but as soon as I start to sweat or 'get moist' the smell from the clothes is not pleasant and I'm forced to change.... (some hotels / laundries - use detergent that just does not do the job of ensuring bacteria is removed from clothes)...
