Lax Law Enforcement Cited for Alarming Road Fatalities in Thailand
Haven't been in a bar in almost 35 years, and I stand by my post, some people just have blinders on. -

How much do you pay for health insurance?
I will be 73 next month. I will be paying $700 a month this coming year for hospitalization only, with April International Insurance based in Paris, France. (Not to be confused with Paris, Texas. Ha Ha.) I switched to just hospitalization coverage a couple years ago when having outpatient and hospitalization became too expensive. This year I am paying $605 a month so it will be increasing $95 a month. My COLA increases next year with my SS and pension will likely just about cover the $95. But, of course, some other things have also increased in price so I am losing ground with my budget. -

Pattaya beach turns into unregulated booze and kratom market
I think I may have mentioned that one gets the impression that the vast majority of crime committed in Thailand would appear to be committed in Pattaya - not sure if I said 82% - where would I get that figure from? We "farangs" get most of our news from AN, and if they seem unduly biased towards reporting the crime in Pattaya rather than anywhere else in the country, there must be a reason for it, why don't you ask them? For your info, I live in one of the island resorts, and although there are quite a few ladyboys/transgender persons working in the bars, I never see or hear of the kind of trouble that seems to happpen in Pattaya on a regular basis (Indians - ladyboy - gold necklace - theft). I am not saying that it doesn't happen, in the same way that I have never actually seen a fight in all the 20 years that I have been here doesn't mean to say that they don't happen - just that I have never seen one. Maybe that is why there are seldom reports of bag/necklace snatches, muggings, beatings up by bouncers/taxi drivers on AN because they rarely happen? And I do go to the bar areas frequently (2 or 3 times a week) so it's not like I am living the life of a hermit in my Utopia! Someone a while ago implied that I had not even been to Pattaya - not true - I was there for 2 or 3 days with a couple of mates a few years ago, and although I enjoyed it, I won't be rushing back - I certainly didn't feel as safe there as I do in "my Utopia"! -

Why do so many Thai prostitutes marry their customers?
So I've talked about my wife's cousin before . Lady of the night, no getting around that. Ended up hooking up with a Swedish guy and moving to Sweden. Sweden seems to be the soft touch for visas I kinda like Clas fun guy, obviously knows the history, her kids grandkids all seems to work. But she makes him happy, and she seems happy in some Godforsaken town in Sweden, so all good -

Alex Jones' Infowars to be auctioned off in pieces to pay Sandy Hook families
Indeed ...seems there were some "irregularities" with the "auction" (let alone the show trial and billion +++ dollar payout ! ) Infowars down for 1 day now back up again. -

Lax Law Enforcement Cited for Alarming Road Fatalities in Thailand
Not sure about RTP per area, but I once did a lookup of the RTP to population ratios of Thailand vs the USA (per 100,000 population), they were almost identical. Which begs the question, where are all these RTP officers, and what are they doing all day? -
