Whatever, he is a politician after all. They don't want to lose their " business" connections after all the hard Lobbying.

He probably used a 20 foot container to deliver all the brown envelopes. Unbelievable even why behind the normal TIT.

Pretty much every day there is a mass shooting in the U.S.
List of mass shootings in the United States in 2022 - Wikipedia
That's why the rest of the world should not worry to much about the power of the US, one part shoots the other part and 75% of the population is obese or has diabetic problems. They are killing themselves but blame us. Pls folks (US people) open your eyes and start to analyze the person you see in the mirror. God, Politics, Guns and cheap gasoline conversations are a no no to most of them.

Does it really matters who is in charge, they are almost all (95%) rotten to the core. An unconnected and honest person can not make it that far. He had a head start in live, his father was a police general.

Yes, it sucks, please spread the word. They even required that the volunteers came to help after the tsunami had them.

For reference:
When I had a serious accident in a hotel in Chiang Mai, whilst on a visit 9 years ago, I was taken to the RAJAVEY CHIANGMAI private hospital after telling the hotel staff not to send me to either the RAM or Bangkok hospitals because of the expensive cost. I had an operation to repair a punctured lung and 3 broken ribs. I was 4 days in ICU then 10 days "on the ward". Fortunately a British Legion pal (Welfare Officer) and his Thai wife (a retired senior nurse) regularly visited me. The total cost (including ambulances to/from hospital) was 55,000 baht. Bangkok Bank Accident Insurance paid 30,000 baht and me 25,000 baht. I had no medical/health insurance (always refused) as I am an insulin dependent type 2 diabetic taking medication to control blood pressure. I have no idea what this private hospital charges these days but at the time the medical staff were very helpful and professional. Personally, I do not need the 5-star glitz and glamour of an expensive hospital, I just want to recover as quickly as possible to return home. As stated elsewhere, the doctors in private hospitals are usually associated with Government hospitals or University Medical Schools.
That's the one I use for my social security. Not as fancy, don't like the rooms (ask for an upgrade paid by me) but the (my) doctors are good and the nurses do their best. They never overcharged me unlike others and do not put the extra, expensive medicine costs, (because of that DVT) on my bill. I did my second spine operation at this hospital because we had time to prepare , unlike the first one (emergency)

You have to be paid in Thai Baht as per Thai law unless you have a legal document consenting to be paid in USD.
If you were working legally, you will have also have to have paid taxes, and file an annual tax return with the revenue dept.
He must have been lucky ???? I would never ask to be paid with <deleted> US dollars.

Depends on the insurance policy of the Falang in question. They know pretty well with what they can get away with. If insurance guys would send people to actually check the hospitals in Thailand, like they do at other countries, they would save us a lot of money if they start to blacklist these hospitals. Had a similar case where they charged 35.000 baht for phone calls while the patient was in a coma. They know exactly what the insurance companies allows them to charge for each item or service received. Regarding the above mentioned hospital in CNX. Rooms perfect, doctors very good, but they use the same outdated facilities as next door. Both times we had complications after an operation, DVT in my case and infection for my son. I went to my surgeon who has his own clinic, and he referred me to RAM, I did use my social security instead, it saved me hundred of thousands of bath. My son used other hospitals to treat his infection (appendix removal) as his school was in BKK. Both problems should not have happened with a proper follow up or rehabilitation therapy (spine operation in my case)
Forgot to mention that the professional knowledge and "taking care" of the patient (me) by the NURSES at Sripat (11 floor) was the best I ever received in my whole life.

Same in Bangkok (last time i checked the private arm of Siriraj was 10-20% cheaper than Bumrungrad) and in Phuket (the private arm of Vachira recently managed to bill a farang 350000 for the last day of his life, less then 24 hours, no surgery)
And yes, these places are spartanic.

Sounds familiar.
BANGKOK — Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha’s twin daughters on Wednesday filed a police complaint for libel against about a hundred social media accounts who accused them of holding privilege and funneling Prayut’s funds, among other allegations.
Did not receive anything yet.

The got plenty of favors in return due to their parents, so they are part of it.

I disagree. I believe politicians in general are fair game if someone wants to verbally attack them in a constructive manner(relatively), but I believe family is off limits. If someone says vile things about their children, then a jail term is justified.
Families are not off limits to these officials when it comes to giving them favors and job offers resulting in a better future. But I agree children of honest politicians should be off limits. However kids of corrupt people enjoy the privileges that their parents gained from corruption and they should be subject to public screening.

Interesting.
Of course, I don't work out in a gym these days, I'm in my fifties. Old guys in gyms are certainly not the type I want to be around.
In my 30s, I did go to Fitness First in Bangkok as there were lots of hot chicks.
I do things that fit my age now, Tai Chi and I run 25 km a week.
Good for you stay fit is the message. Lucky and happy that I still can walk 40 to 60 Km a week. I would love to be able to run again.

Have to admit, before the internal shutdown last year, but no tourists...it was GLORIOUS. Reminded me of early and mid-90s when my brother and I and, at very most, a handful of others were the only customers in Tilac or Pretty Lady or Rainbow 1. Sometimes we were the only customers. Far outnumbered by the pretty young things (and they all were back then), where as it's been the opposite for the past 2 decades. 10 dudes to every PYT.
No skin off my nose if Thailand insists on shooting itself in the foot. Fact is...I prefer it. Open internally, but difficult for tourists to enter = Let the good times roll!!! ????
PLease can you pay compensation for all those who lost their jobs. Hotels, tour business, guides, drivers, airlines, pilots cabin crews, restaurants, service sector etc etc. My staff will love you forever.

Sick, how many more before they realise that it is not rest of the world that is wrong? In Europe they have fire drills in kindergarten, in the States they have "shooters (invader) drill" at kindergarten level.

I bet a religious or conservative person may has a different opinion or definition of the word assault. In some parts of Thailand just touching (friendly slap on the shoulder) would already be considered an assault or sexual intimidation.

I think you mixed things up. I'm talking about the guy who does not like the English. I expressed my opinion already on the attacker. Who says I share his thinking? He has the freedom to like or not to like, I'm just pointing out why other people may have a different idea about the English. I'm mainland European, born to people who suffered in the WWII. under German occupation so I have no bad feelings about the British at all. My father's memories about the Germans were not as good. The Britsch never occupied my country they liberated it.

To cycle at night in THailand you must be suicidal. Zebra crossing, apart from the light I bet they looked to the left instead right while crossing. The French drive on the other side of the road. While in my home country I noticed that people would drive slowly or stopped when I was near a zebra crossing, even without the attention to cross. Zebra crossing in Thailand are still sci fiction.

They need their club to be exclusive. It is a matter of national security. Many of them would be shot on the spot if thee wander around on the streets alone. And as somebody mentioned. All countries have something similar where only those who are elected (or connected) are allowed.
