Tourism From London to Warsaw: European Influx Powers Thailand’s Tourism Rebound
I was responding to your statement that weed is a major problem, that catching a buzz isn't an innocent act. What I said is that trafficking of drugs is the problem. Hard drugs being the principle ones that cause deaths and long jail sentences. Weed should have been legal all along, as it was for a time earlier. Old school ignorant thinkers made it the demon weed. Weed compared to hard drugs is a night and day thing, especially where trafficking is concerned. People are in jail for personal use and that's ignorance. -

Occupied America?
Yes, Rosie is complaining the Irish Doctors will not give her Zanax. Gere is looking for a place with wild Gerbils. Perfect example of these idiots. -

Revenue Department to amend tax on foreign income remittance
Correct, I do believe this is for ALL Thai tax residents, whether they be Thai or what ever. But I also fail to understand why the Revenue Department doesn't put out an announcement to all the news media so that hopefully the full story will known though recognize that they seldom put out the whole story anyway. -

Community Villagers Demand Action After Foreigner’s Pit Bulls Maul Dog to Death
Once, back in my own country, I was bitten rather close to the heart—by a Tibetan wolfdog, no less. The owner? My health insurance agent. (Make of that what you will.) That incident left a scar and a lasting impression. For years after, whenever a dog barked, something stirred in me—tight, involuntary. Fear doesn’t leave politely. Fast forward to life on our Thai farm. I’m now co-owner of two adorable little rascals who strut around freely like they own the land. Every day, they eat lovingly cooked Thai meals, prepared by my wife—the true pack leader. Now, here’s the twist: once in a while, they wander off with their local dog gang and pay a surprise visit to a neighbor’s henhouse. The chickens squawk, feathers fly, and—inevitably—the owner shows up at our gate. Not thrilled. Fair enough. We considered buying little dog masks to keep them from biting or at least soften their image. (Thailand has a way of turning chaos into charm.) But the best solution turned out to be much simpler: we caught one of them in the act. And believe it or not, they never did it again. The real authority stepped in—my wife, the one who fills their bowls. She didn’t raise her voice, just raised an eyebrow. And that eyebrow has more weight than any fence or leash. Dogs, when signaled properly and consistently, are remarkably capable of learning. It’s not about punishment. It’s about presence. Timing. Respect. And maybe, just maybe, a little Thai rice with chicken. As the Thai say: “รักวัวให้ผูก รักลูกให้ตี” – “If you love your cow, tie it up; if you love your child, discipline them.” A proverb that sounds strict, but in reality, it speaks to care through responsibility. Boundaries show love. We’re judged not just by how we care for animals, but how we handle things when they go wrong. Responsibility, remorse, and action can heal wounds. Ignoring or downplaying it only breeds distrust and fear. Btw. in Thailand, the law falls under the Cruelty Prevention and Welfare of Animal Act (2014), and local police or the Livestock Department can be contacted. When a formal complaint was already filed then let authorities act—or let them explain why they’re not. -

Prostate and Colonoscopy Queries
1. For the prostate: - first of all, get a test of the free PSA and (resultant) free-to-total PSA ratio as this is very helpful in distinguishing between elevations caused by Benign Hyperplasia vs malignancy. -then consult one of these specialists: Khon Kaen Prof. Wichien Sirithanaphol at KKU Hosptal (Srinagarind) Bangkok Prof. Sittiporn Srinulad https://www.siphhospital.com/en/medical-services/doctor-biography?id=246 https://www.thonburihospital.com/en/doctorprofile/dr-sittiporn-srinualnad/ https://www.medparkhospital.com/en-US/doctors/assoc-prof-dr-sittiporn-srinualnad https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/doctors/sittiporn-srinualnad Same doctor, 4 different hospitals. SIPH while least costly is not so easy to deal with/get appoibtments promptly. Thionburi costs are just a fraction more and much easier to deal with but, like SIPH, on the Thonburi side of the river. MedPark and Bumrungrad are centrally located. Assuming you do nto otherwise have anything to do or place to stay on Thonburi side, I would probably opt for MedPark as bets tradeoff in terms of cost and location. But you can see him at any of these places, up to you. 2. For routine screening colonoscopy, any of the hospitals in Korat (Bkk Hosp, St Mary's, main govt hospital etc) should be OK or you could also do it at hospital where you consult urologist. In Bkk, MedPark is offering a 23k price which for private hospitals in Thailand is pretty good. https://www.medparkhospital.com/en-US/online-store/gastroscopy-colonoscopy-package
