    6 million people in Isaan alone are infected with stomach cancer caught from a fluke that lives in fresh water fish etc. https://teakdoor.com/north-east-thail...-how-many.html (6 million Thais infected, how many farang ?)

    I seldom if ever eat fresh water fish here. Nasty looking things! The Pla Duke, which is supposed to be a Catfish, doesn't look like any kind of catfish I've ever caught!

    On Topic: I'd do this as a Poll but not sure the mechanics involved.

    How many expats have the Yellow Book and what was the paperwork involved in getting it? As we've seen from several posters, it varies from Amphur to Amphur.

    My experience tells me it is from their misuse of pesticides and the continuous house dusting (smoking) sessions they perform. Some of their cooking practices and the questionable coal they use probably does not help either.
