Transkinetic Medicine In Isaan

[buadhai]

Yesterday my GF and I went in to Korat to get the medical certificates we need to get our Thai driver's licenses. But first, I had an important luncheon engagement with Ken at the Pasinee restaurant.

When GF and I hooked up a bit later she announced, "Guess what, I already got my health certificate."

Great, I think to myself, now I have to go and get mine on my own....

But, she quickly adds, "I got yours, too!"

Apparently, the clinic to which she went is attended by a physician so advanced in his medical ability that he was able to find that I was in good health by simply having his assistant examine my passport!

Although my GF was physically present in the clinic, no actual exam was required of her either! The assistant simply looked at her Thai ID card and completed the certificate.

I'm sure you're as excited as I am to learn that medicine this advanced has reached the vast Northeast.

Amazing Thailand!

Nothing new at all. The doctors will even give her a false bill stating you are sick. You can use it to claim money. They will do it for her because she will say you are sick.

Other countries, other customs.
