    You were making plans to leave a few years ago. Didn't work out?
    his commitment to the many charitable causes he supports have put those plans on hold.

    yep, that's about it

    20K is the price you would pay in a private clinic here in Europe or even in the US, with tea and coffee and a nice nurse in a cosy private room for medical services

    The wife got nipped, 6 injections over a 5-6 month period, she paid 30 Thb.
    One of our dogs nipped a young girl on a bike, the wife took her to the local hospital and it cost, if we remember correctly, about 500 Thb.

    How on earth you got 20,000 Thb beggars belief.

    Corruption is great when it works for you, Not so much when it does not , .
    Try going to a hospital for less than $1,000 without insurance in non-corrupt US .
    All reform comes at a price. There is no such thing as a free lunch.

    humble brag; noun


    an ostensibly modest or self-deprecating statement whose actual purpose is to draw attention to something of which one is proud.

    ^

    Has the original post been edited? I dont see the word "humble"in it, now?

    "to speak too proudly about what you have done or what you own:

    She's always bragging about how much money she earns.



    [ + that ] They bragged that their team had never been beaten."

    Boasting

    5. I am not Thai but when will the Thai's that are paying taxes realise that the people they put in power don't give a fuck about anything apart from their next back pocket wedge and ignoring to do the job they were put in power to do...........

    6. This country is run by the most corrupt selfish group of gangsters in the world bar none! quote

    well lt.. unfortunatly thats the state of play the world over.... just look at the uk gov over brexit,, nothing new in politics,, its all about winning votes with outright lies... democracy,, forget it, spend ur time harvesting rocking horse shit.

    ^ No hint of corruption being involved in the UK's BREXIT contortions.

    Just good old fashioned incompetence and self interest.

    Corruption brings duplicity right down to the ordinary person's level.

    There's no comparison between Thailand and the countries most of us come from on this.
