Dancers at Police Station Spark Outrage Among Netizens
Tempest in a teapot. Much ado about nothing. I find their sense of fun up lifting. Note to those offended: Get a life. -

David Lammy’s Push for UN Security Council Expansion Threatens Britain's Global Influence
I think that the 60% figure is an exaggeration but you make some valid points. https://www.wildlifetrusts.org/news/landmark-report-shows-uk-wildlifes-devastating-decline Imo there needs to be a balance between protecting the environment and the requirements of the economy; there is a big difference between worrying about the destruction of the Amazon rain forest and its' effects, and spoiling the view of someone living in the English shires because a housing estate has been built. The UK has always needed immigrants to supplement the domestic labour force. Controlling i.e. reducing immigration may slow economy growth. -

Two Friends in Drunken Dispute: One Knocked Unconscious After Argument Turns Violent
I just checked out the rooms...and they look better than I expected. Must have been a fairly nice place.....when it first opened. Not sure about the clientele these days, though. -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
Malaysia has explicitly listed credit card payments as coming under the umbrella for FSI (foreign source income). That doesn't mean Thailand will adopt the same ruling, but odds are they will. With fringe benefits there may not even be a transfer at all - if you're staying rent free at company owned premises, there are going to be tax implications. Which highlights that the precise method of payment is not the main consideration. -

Can I be added to my wife's national health insurance plan?
a lot of parents usually out in the provinces want their kids to get a government job for this alone, there's also the question of level of covers and what medicine/procedures are available between each scheme, social security with employee (paid) contributions often coming out worse -

Can I be added to my wife's national health insurance plan?
I'm covered under my wife's CSMBS (civil servant medical benefits scheme). My son was also covered until her turned 20, and her parents were covered (both deceased now). his is a good scheme as I can use any public hospital, and I've used several! I just usually pay a small amount for the after hours clinics. don't pay for medicine also. -

Can I be added to my wife's national health insurance plan?
My previous wife was able to add me to her company health insurance benefits. My current wife's company health insurance does not allow this. -

Newborn Found in Trash Bag, Mother Confesses to Dumping Body
These stories are so sad on many levels. The dead infant, the mother, the father and society. This does not only happen in Thailand but likely, all countries, even the west such as; the UK, European countries, USA, Canada and Australia etc. What has not been reported here are the full circumstsances. Was the baby that of the husband, or another liaison, either consensual or otherwise? Being a foreigner in Thailand, she likely would not have access to affordable healthcare. Maybe there are many other factors involved. It is, a tragedy for sure. What crime against others have been committed? We don't know. For sure, this will likely leave a lasting effect on the mother (and possibly her husband). -

Deadlocked Between Trump and Harris in NBC News Poll as Election Approaches
It’s inexplicable that nearly half of the American adults are complete morons that would even consider supporting an airhead like Harris, but here we are. Suppose the dumbing down of the media and rampant mindless peer to peer hysterics has got the best of them. I predict there will be an increased massive wave of mental illnesses infecting the left if Trump gets voted in. -

David Lammy’s Push for UN Security Council Expansion Threatens Britain's Global Influence
More ridiculous hyperbole. The notion that any UK government could be collectively traitorous and hate their fellow countrymen is beyond ludicrous. Really? Then your working-class area was positively middle-class compared with mine. Your area was exempt from the 3-day week in '74? The 'Winter of Discontent' in 1978/79 didn't affect your area? Riots? Take your pick of '81 or '84 in my working class area. Add in the fact that 10% of homes had an outside toilet and no bathroom at the beginning of the '70s, and it was pretty grim. Maybe you should listen to Billy Bragg's lyrics a bit more closely. -

Thailand Explores Visa Waiver Talks with Laos to Enhance Tourism
I believe both. There is still the trash there using buildings for call centre scams and holding people hostage.
