Dec 02, 2008 - 3:39 PM - by Alison |
I've looked but I couldn't see anything else that relates to my problem here.
I have worked as a designer for a Thai company since 2001. With rising economic concerns I thought I would finally be prudent and join the company provident scheme. When I requested it in September I got an email back from the fund administrator saying that I could not join as I was temporary staff. In reply I sent them a scan of my probation completion letter and offer of permanent employment that the previous MD gave me in 2002. They said it was a mistake and I was only a temporary employee because I sign a new contract every year. Yes, I did this every year because I was told it was only... [Read More] | |

Dec 02, 2008 - 10:44 AM - by DrB0b |
The Panthamit Yellowshirts, thanks to their backers in the media, their 24 hour a day TV Channel and their highly public actions, are well known to all of us. It seems that not so much is known about their redshirt opponents, this thread is an attempt to fill in some of the gaps. The policies, politics and tactics of Panthamit have been covered in detail in newspapers, on TV, and on the Internet but little has been said about what their opponents want - this is of course mainly because the Thai media, apart from NBTV, some radio stations and one or two newspapers, actively support Panthamit and have no interest in presenting the Redshirts case other than for propaganda purposes.

Dec 02, 2008 - 12:18 AM - by pescator |
Koh Kood is a major island to the south of Koh Chang. Whileas Koh Chang has been heavily developed since I first spent several months here in `96, Koh Kood still retains the former charms of Koh Chang.

Dec 01, 2008 - 8:55 PM - by kingwilly |
With the high temperatures, drying effects of aircon, UV rays, bangkok pollutantion, and wind, your face has to endure a lot each day and can become damaged, dry, itchy and flaky as a result.
Moisturizing is no longer seen as a gay or girlie blouse thing. Moisturizing your face on a daily basis will help promote hydration, skin cell regeneration, healing, and prevent damaging effects including wrinkles and lines, etc. Quite a few also contain sun protection also.
All men should consider this, a number of products are available on the market, but which one works best for you?
My preference is low or non perfumed ones, eg: Gillette Complete SkinCare... [Read More] | |
