though the woman has insisted that she does not want to be hospitalised

In cases like this it is entirely possible that the lady in question is unable to make the rational and correct decision. As symptoms of advanced HIV / AIDS can  include dementia, the loss of some mental faculties and general deterioration in the brains capacity

If a mad man claimed he had wings and could fly, should he be allowed to jump from the tallest building or should those of better judgment and experience intervene on his behalf and save him from a certain death?
I suggest you go take a look at what passes for 'care' at your local government hospital terminal ward before suggesting this woman is suffering from dementia. go on, I dare you. She knows EXACTLY what would await her there.

I look forward to your reporting your observations..
Yeah, government hospitals may not be great and badly funded. But unless your implying that the people that work there are heartless bas***ds i don't understand your point.  They maybe underfunded, but a large majority of doctors and nurses are good, compassionate and they work hard and could provide the basic human necessities, food, clothing, water, medicines, hygiene. On the streets this womans life is awful

Should they be publishing her home address?

Saves them making notes, if they want to find her again, they can just look at this thread.

Hi-tech or what.

Not exactly ground-breaking technology used here.....its called the "Find IPhone" app which every IPhone user should have installed as standard. Very easy to locate your phone with this app.

Exactly. You dont even use google maps. Its all built into iCloud. All my apple devices are on it and primed at all times. iMac, iPad and wife's iPhone. As she is 'Thai' at time keeping I can see exactly how far away she is from where I am supposed to meet her when she says she is 'nearly there' and has just only left the house. Invaluable!

To quote Ghandi " A society is judged by how it treats its' most vulnerable citizens."

Wise words.... how should I judge Thailand??


#5326940 Nigerian Man Arrested In Bangkok For Heroin Trafficking

Posted ANTIRACIST on 2012-05-24 10:41:11

The way most Thai people speaks never seize to amaze me,they speak as if Thais are not in foreign countries committing different crimes,does that make all Thai bad? NO? In this 21st century,so long as your country has Embassy in a country means they want citizens of that country to come to their country,if not  your country will not have Embassy in that country that gives them VISA.

Nigerians and Africans are NOT  commiting the kind of Crimes been commited in our Country by Farangs,europeans,american,australians,Russians,some africans may commit 2% of crime,but westerners are commiting 65% of crimes in our Beloved Thailand yet we intend to over look them,because we think they are helping our economy,even when a 75 year old man is having sex with our Thai daughter who is 18,we accept  this as normal.

I went to Russia, i met so many Thai Prostitutes i was ashamed to identify myself as Thai Citizen,yet Russians do not call all Thais prostitutes, the same goes to any nation, there are bad and good people in all countries, let us use our intelligent when speaking,and not Generalise a country as BAD due to some few who did wrong.

Most of us think Nigeria is a poor nation,not knowing they are Richer than Thailand in everywhere,you may then ask why are they here,they answer is why are Americans,and europeans Here??? Who are also better than Us???

This guy isn't accused of murdering, maiming, or raping anyone.  Not even accused of beating anyone up or stealing anything from anyone.  

There's a good chance he'll be executed for his $330 paycheck.

Stupid, yes.  But deserving of the bile being spewed at him and of being executed (or spending the rest of his life in a Thai prison)?

#5320866 Thaksin At Odds With Reds Over Call For Justice

Posted MaiChai on 2012-05-22 06:22:13

Unfortunately Taksin thinks he can return to his former glory days, but he is deluding himself. The smart man would have accepted his situation and moved on. If this whitewash ever happens it will be the terrible travesty; it will say to the world that one rich man can buy way out and make people think Thailand has no ethics or principals. A great miscarriage of justice?


#5318203 Sex Tourism To Thailand And Indonesia Driving Rise In HIV Cases

Posted DP25 on 2012-05-21 07:44:30

From later in the article -

Quote

"I would want to get that message out again about safe sex - I don't know how much young men are aware that Thailand is the HIV capital of the world," Dr Kidd said.

This guy is a f*%&ing moron and that isn't even remotely true.  New infections in Thailand have dropped from +150,000 per year in the early 90s to 10,000 per year now, roughly the same per capita level as the United States.  Southern African countries have 20-30% of the population infected and Thailand has less than 1%, and most of them infected more than 10 years ago and the number of new cases are relatively small.

I don't know if he is incredibly misinformed or he is deliberately spreading misinformation to keep people away from Thailand or because he is against prostitution for moral reasons.  Either way he is an uninformed bigot
