#5338354 Decent Ipod Speaker Available In Phuket

Posted pagallim on Yesterday, 11:49

The Harman Kardon unit is excellent (can't remember what I paid for it, I did buy it in Phuket about 3 years ago).   Since I managed to get an Apple TV (stupidly not sold in Thailand) some time ago, play all my iTunes music into my home cinema system.


#5303797 Whats The Best Way To Send Money To Thai Gf

Posted David48 on 2012-05-16 05:38:15

Just some friendly advice (that you didn't ask for) ...

If you are contemplating sending a monthly 'salary' to a Thai Lady, typically they send between 4,000 and 10,000 Baht home to their family (stereotypically in Issan) depending on their disposable income.

Requests for amounts higher then that make you a rich Banker ... if you get my drift.

Think of money in their terms … the minimum wage (but does often appear to be the average wage for Factory workers etc) in Bangkok is 300 Baht … about $10 a day, and in the provinces it is 180 Baht, so while it may not be much money to you … it maybe a weeks wages to them

OH, you might be surprised to discover that you may not be the only one assisting in the welfare of your friend.  kawapower's comment above is often the case.

There is much written here on the various Forums if you have the inclination to search.


OH … if you find my comment above in any offensive, then please have this post reported to the Moderators and they will most likely remove it from your thread as being 'off topic' ... just trying to be helpful.

My opinion: if you can't give link or text, don't bother with posts like this.


#5202810 Cat Bit And Hit Me

Posted h90 on 2012-04-09 11:13:49

Can you remember how many legs it had?
If it had 4 legs I would wear a flea collar for 1 week.
If it had 2 legs I would make a HIV test.

As well I recommend a martial art training, so that you don't loose against a 2 kg animal, again.


#5124332 Remove Amalgam Fillings

Posted impulse on 2012-03-11 07:24:02

After you get the amalgams removed, don't forget to go to the hospital and get your blood tested for Hg.  Grinding up the amalgams is expected to release some quantity of Hg into your saliva and you can swallow quite a bit.  

It's been recommended to have chelation treatments after removing the amalgams.  

But please don't take my word for anything medical.  I'm not an expert, just interested -and on my way to having mine replaced with non-metallic alternative.  Do the Googling yourself for your own wellbeing.


#5148745 Wich Color Laser Printer?

Posted Jdietz on 2012-03-20 08:18:58

What does it matter what color the laser printer is? Function over form!

(Just kidding, I am as interested in the answer as you, planning to buy a color laser as long as changing the cartridges won't cost me more than a new printer.)

But elderly Thai men can still purchase it.  Racist Thailand shows its true colors again.


#5165675 Deep Face Peeling

Posted Sheryl on 2012-03-26 12:15:48

Very hard to find this (and also laser ablation) in Thailand as not at all popular with Thais.

Even if you do find a doc willing to do it I would wonder how much experience they'd have had.

You may do better to do this back home if possible.
