  1. Classic Thailand.....Only Make others pay 😉 That anyone other than a Thai ever invests in Thailand is beyond me 🙄 To add insult to injury those 4 Star hotels are employing at least 50 Thai citizens each 555 EDIT: Note I am not saying minimum wages are fair in Thailand I am saying this policy is yet just another racist BS move
  2. A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss 😉 You just slip out the back, Jack Make a new plan, Stan You don't need to be coy, Roy Just get yourself free Hop on the bus, Gus You don't need to discuss much Just drop off the key, Lee And get yourself free 🙂 Kidding aside we did back leave in 2016...It was great in Thailand while we lived there ..... we got tired of the things you mentioned & others we left.....now it is great where we live. Perhaps some day we will tire of this but actually so far so good. No worries....Life is usually more than one place 😉 Good Luck to you in your new spot!
  3. Actually that bike is quite a porker.... *WEIGHT 10.4 kg in size M, without pedals - 23.4 LB That is going to sting going up Doi Suthep 😉 That aside Van Rysel is making some good but expensive nice bikes now RCR & have sponsored a Pro World Tour Team AG2R OP you should do as another poster suggested & look at used especially in CM there are many Try a aluminum road bike with rim brakes for light weight & a great deal....Like a Trek ALR or even carbon like Giant TCR etc
  4. Although levels of lovastatin vary in the product, 2.4 g of red yeast rice daily may contain about 4.8 mg of lovastatin, or 0.2% of the total dose.
  5. Unlike Thailand USA sells homes to many countries citizens so the market is not dependent on just them. (then again US allows even folks on a green card to get a SS# & work. Because the US is not stupid enough to ignore the possibility of taxing immigrants & citizens alike 😉 ) As a retired General Contractor I can tell you Prices on homes rarely decrease...They can go sideways for even quite awhile but as labor & materials continue to increase so does everything else. Of course prices do decrease in areas that have become ghettos but that is not for most
  6. Actually you take the injection every two weeks so you could stop & that is the duration. But really it is well tolerated & based on something some folks have naturally Peter Attia who is quite well known in this field has been on it himself for many years Is it even available in Thailand though? Worth watching this video 😉
  7. Well that is the problem isn't it...Did they assault a cop or just disarm a situation that may have ended much worse? Old saying that of course will not be valid in Thailand though is.... “It's better to be tried by 12 than carried by six” On a not so funny side note ....imagine how the parents feel hearing this story & then the news today that Thailands two top ranking cops have been suspended/switched off due to corrupt activities accusations..... The Joe Ferrari's of Thailand are alive & well. Thailand Thailand 🙄
  8. This probably means all their customer data security has been breached. Because if they have a name/account number etc etc for these scam bills that means they have access. If not then those who just scan & pay are pretty gullible
  9. Agree with Tim that banning import of Maize from neighboring burning countries does Zero to help Thailand. In fact it is little more than the pot calling the kettle black. The PM should consider cleaning up his own house before sanctioning others. If this is a tit for tat then all those countries should also ban any imports from Thailand due to their burning
  10. Well I don't think you would have heard of it unless the guy is caught. But that cops in Thailand are often unhinged is not unheard of Thailand massacre: ex-cop kills 24 children in knife and gun rampage That Phuket cops are some of the worse in Thailand is not unheard of Phuket officer gets 25 years for drunken Bangla shooting Both of those examples are recent...do you think they are the only examples? They do not include the unheard 😉
  11. Could be true...My license is dual passenger vehicles & motor bikes but perhaps not all are. But as they said in that clip too it is good they also go after rental agencies that rent to folks without showing proof of license
  12. That is the truth of it isn't it? At the end of the day these guys did a stupid thing for what ever reason yet to be known But basically did not harm the cop just disarmed & embarrassed him... But also as you said it will be bought & paid for either way Vorayuth Yoovidhya not only hurt but killed a cop but then a cop ex police chief helped him escape and was never really chased again
  13. All else aside all this talk about driving without a license seems odd considering.... These guys 36 & 38 surely have NZ licenses
  14. I doubt many if any think it was normal nor justified...but this story has more holes than Pattaya walking street
  15. Problem is yes of course it has to be extreme but it does not look like they grabbed his weapon to turn it on him instead they grabbed the weapon & immediately put it out of reach & then immediately disarmed the weapon so NONE could use it to do harm... Not exactly the actions of someone trying to hurt anyone but instead a self defensive move, self preservation move. But as always TIT & we will see what tale develops. If it was anything less he would have turned the gun not thrown it immediately out of reach then have his friend disable the gun rendering it not a threat. These two do not seem the normal thug types
  16. Does make you wonder why someone who feels that way even reads the "Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership" section of this forum right? 🙄
  17. Don't know why these nuts did this but....In video the one guy takes the gun from the cops hand & throws it to roadside.... The other guy picks it up & removes the magazine & clears the weapon As always there is more to this story & none of it will be good
  18. Quite a few Thai folks from Chiang Mai posting bloody tissues on Social Media. Claiming their noses are bleeding due to this pollution.
  19. It should be a condition that those like Prayut & Prawit eat it the rest of their lives in a small jail cell...Since it was one of the claims they orchestrated to overthrow a legally elected government ...Oh but wait they also created that Get Out OF Jail Free card 🙄
  20. I just logged in both on my laptop & with phone app No such questions Hopefully yours was not a password fishing scam/bug? I did note there was a update available for my Android phone app so did install it Good Luck
  21. I have not read all the replies so sorry if this has been mentioned already Things I found interesting in my own searches about cholesterol Regular statins like those mentioned here efficacy is 85% benefit at 25% dosage Once this is realized folks can avoid many of the side effect/complaints many have for statins Which is why many informed doctors now reduce statins dosage to 10-20 daily doses & sometimes even every other day compared to much higher doses previously ApoB which can easily be checked in Thailand is a better indicator than LDL This is a simple video on ApoB I do not know if you folks have these drugs in Thailand & they can be expensive but are better than Statins & considered "Pro Drugs" Because they do not affect your whole body but instead target liver Things like PCSK9 Inhibitors like Repatha or Praluent a 2x a month self administered injection slashes ApoB / LDL to very low levels Also other new drugs like Ezetimibe lowers LDL 13-20% & Bempedoic Acid Nexlizet is a drug that combines Ezetimibe & Bempedoic The newest drug is called Inclisiran & is a twice yearly shot that silences PCSK9 gene in the liver In any case I highly recommend videos by Peter Attia Also check his other videos on diet, longevity.. etc Also as some have said diet does help but for many myself included it still may not be enough. I am plant based no oils except a tiny amount of extra virgin olive oil, no dairy, no sugar & yet my LDL is still 100-124 I may be starting PCSK9 next month I also am a life long endurance athlete which you would think is great but at the same time many of us endurance types have high CAC scores because after all heavy exercise is a form of inflammation to your heart at extreme levels too & causes calcium. BUT.... about CAC scores IMO they are pretty useless as they do not differentiate between calcium inside the artery or outside. But they tend to alarm folks right away. Better instead to acknowledge it & follow up in many directions. Checking ApoB, Doing Duplex Ultrasound checks of carotid, aorta,legs etc This is a Good Peter Attia video on the subject
  22. Nice video Wow 14 rai / 6 acres is a large piece of land! You must have plans for something big ...Looks like you folks cleared it all or was it already cleared for a crop? Good Luck should be a great adventure!
