White Culture
Please change the title to White Culture in USA. That is not the same as White Culture somewhere else. I don't think there is something like universal White Culture. -

Western Union better than “Wise”
Yes, I asked wise, and they said that only 2 Thai Banks(Bangkok bank was one of them if I remember it right) allow transfers in excess of 2000 $. But that can't be the whole story. I was able to transfer more than that into my KTB account via payoneer. -

How I got my first retirement EXTENSION in Chiang Mai.
The single re-entry permit specifies nothing. You can use it at any time during the year for any travel outside the Kingdom. -

Baht strength - How long?
I'm certainly not the first to wonder about the exchange rate THB against other currencies, but please bear with me! I see the current rates: 1 USD = 32.4 THB which is 9% down compared to 6 months ago 1 EUR = 36.2 THB which is 7% down compared to 6 months ago 1 GBP = 43.3 THB which is 5% down compared to 6 months ago That's quite a drop in purchasing power within a relatively short time for a lot of western residents in Thailand, and for a lot of potential western tourists! Can someone explain what is going on and give a view on how long this trend might hold in the near-mid term? -

Man Bitten by Snake During Night Hike, Uses Folk Medicine to Survive
OK - o we take his ID of the snake as gospel? I don't think it actually changes the argument either way - the point is that "traditional" medications don't work and often exacerbate the situation. -

High BP, revisited.
If you are sort of 80 years + or so, most doctors will be happy if they can reduce your BP to 140/. Not to say that that is desirable, but the side effects of BP lowering drugs at that age becomes important. Questions asked should be: do you smoke, alcohol consumption, exercise, consumption of carbohydrates (which includes sugar and starch)...? Seed oils and ultra-processed foods also play a role. It's not just about living longer, it's about living a healthy life for as long as possible. -

Linear actuators? Quality criteria? Where to buy?
Thanks. There is always one street in Chinatown with whatever we are looking for. We only need to know which street.. I will certainly go there to have a look. I agree, it's always better to see things like that in real life. -

Complaint to Regulatory Authority of Thai Financial Institution
Well considering how well they help out the Thai people that get scammed for far more than you regularly and the little assistance they give them i would not waste too much time if it was a small amount -

Man Bitten by Snake During Night Hike, Uses Folk Medicine to Survive
Even if the snake does a dry bite a small amount of residual venom may have got it. Also a snakes mouth contains a lot of bacteria. imagine what you would look like if I stuck a couple of dirty nails or spikes into your foot.....or have you ever trodden on a spiky vine in the tropics - wounds quickly become infected.Also even without a bite, if you put a tourniquet around your ankle your foot will quickly swell up. -
