Care / residential / retirement home?

Johnlkuk · yesterday at 12:53 PM1 day

I asked a few months back about a fit to fly certificate for my (now 95 years young) neighbour. Sadly, due to his age and failing health, a realisation has set in, for him and his family, that staying here for his final days may be his better option. Right now his family are funding full time care in his own condo, but are now contemplating if a care home would be a better option. Can anyone recommend any places local to Pattaya? And, if possible, approximate costs for a live in resident in

Passbook updater at SCB bank ATM on Jomtien Beach Rd near Immigration?

Jingthing · 11 hours ago11 hr

Time sensitive query. Only respond if you know. I recall there is an SCB ATM on Jomtien beach road at approximately Soi 3 which is of course close to immigration on Soi 5. Not asking about the large SCB branch much further out on Jomtien Beach Road past the night markett. So that ATM exists correct? Does it have a PASSBOOK printer updater? I don't have the SCB app so can't look it up there. Thank you.

No military draft in the US? Think again!

unblocktheplanet · yesterday at 07:55 AM1 day

Abridged from source. Source in title. [Opinion. Oh, yeah, I get it: The USA doesn’t have a draft, right? Guess again! However, Commander Bone Spurs has just realised how much more unpopular a new draft could make him look. Let’s take a look at “automatic” registration collected from govt databases by DOGE and other agencies. However, is it really possible to track any individual down? We’re all pretty mobile. Selective Service is terminally broken. Failure to register can result in refusal

Trump has re-defined corruption

spidermike007 · July 1Jul 1

No other president has ever used his office to accumulate the vast amounts of wealth that Trump has gained in the past year and a half. And most unfortunately as is the case with many of his policies, his own supporters suffered the most. He is likely the most corrupt president in American history by 300 fold. And many of his supporters don't even seem to care as they have become numb to his misdeeds, and still believe his lies. A large chunk of the $2 billion haul President Trump took in last

Yep. They never updated it when i bought to service. Neither I ever got the chance to update it via the car. I was never expecting any updates and I don't use Facebook often, Hehe. Thanks for the suggestion. I might take to byd just that it's 50 km away. And I'm enjoying the IM5 too much. Man than car has some things that are very different! The car uses Km range instead of battery percentage, you can't just just have battery percentage on the screen. Only via multiple clicks. It's nowhere! You Start the car by pressing the brakes. Can't turn off car. You leave the car and it will shutdown eventually or, if you lock it or charge it. What really put a smile is not the raw power, it's the rear wheel steering working. The turning radius is so impressive and changing lanes on highway is so cool then combined Ruth the power. Damn!

Patong2021 replied to Georgealbert's topic in Thailand News - Discussion

There are 2 common methods of nonpayment; -Arrival as an emergency at a hospital: If a for profit hospital, there is an obligation to stabilize before transferring to a public hospital. The profit facility must collect the costs from foreigners who may not have the financial means to pay or who just refuse. The Thai public hospital will not deny emergency care. No deposits are taken on admission. Unfortunately, if the patient is destitute, the public hospital can not evict. Emergency treatment for vehicle crashes, drug overdoses, misadventure can add up. -Requested procedure performed after deposit is paid. Patient refuses to pay subsequent charges. This occurs infrequently, and is associated with the for Profit clinics who have hidden fees or charge for undeclared services.

Making your own wine at home

Peterphuket · 3 hours ago3 hr

I’ve been toying with the idea of making my own wine here. I’ve done a bit of research here and there into buying the necessary equipment, as well as the process of making it. For that reason, I’m not sure whether it’s actually possible here; for instance, fermenting for thirty days at a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius doesn’t seem to me to be conducive to producing a drinkable wine. Is there anyone here who has a different opinion, particularly regarding making wine here in Thailand?
