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 -

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? -

American arrested for alleged sexual assault of Chinese woman
Hat Yai police have arrested a 39 year old American man following serious allegations of sexual assault against a 35 year old Chinese woman. The case unfolded after the victim, known publicly as Chang, bravely came forward to report the distressing incident. The drama began on November 2 when Chang and the suspect, identified as Christian, first crossed paths at a local restaurant in the bustling city of Hat Yai, Songkhla. The two quickly struck up a relationship, often meeting in the privacy of Chang’s hotel room. However, Chang made it clear that any intimate encounters would require protection. Things took a dark turn on November 7 when Chang alleges Christian refused to use protection. When she opposed his advances, the situation reportedly escalated, ending in a violent assault before Christian fled the scene. Acting swiftly on Chang’s report, Hat Yai police wasted no time in gathering evidence before acquiring an arrest warrant from the Songkhla Provincial Court. With the cooperation of tourist officials, authorities tracked Christian down on the very same day at a different hotel within Hat Yai, where they promptly arrested him. Christian now faces the serious charge of sexual assault under Thai law, which condemns the use of threats or physical force against someone unable to resist. The police are leaving no stone unturned as they continue their relentless investigation to build a watertight case. As of now, Christian has remained silent, refraining from making any statements to the Thai media. It also remains uncertain whether he has secured legal representation. by Bob Scott Picture courtesy of Pattaya News Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-11-18
