Emergency Workers from Chiang Rai flooding have been in an Accident.

Blood Donors Needed. A Negative. Original article in comments.

Please donate at any of the Bangkok Red Cross Locations or Regional Blood Centres.

💥If you are Rh-Negative, please donate every 90 days to avoid emergencies. ALL Rh-Negative Groups💥

The National blood centre on Henri Dunant Rd and the Regional Blood Centres (Chiang Mai, Phuket, Chonburi, Phitsanulok, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Hua Hin, Khon Kaen, Songkla, Nakhon Ratchasima) are now accepting donors from the United Kingdom 🇬🇧, France 🇫🇷 and Ireland 🇮🇪 who were previously unable to donate due to variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease... aka "mad cow 🐄 " disease.

ALL Blood Types are needed and are used, HOWEVER, we always have critical need for Rh-Negative donors.

Even if you do not know your blood type, please donate. Westerners have the highest percentage of Rh-Negative. EXTREMELY Rare in the Thai population.

Donor Eligibility criteria is pinned on the top of my Page. Please review it if you are a new donor in Thailand.

Primary qualifications are:

✅ Under 60 if first-time donor in Thailand

✅ No alcohol 24 hours prior

✅ Healthy low-fat meal at least three hours prior. Low cholesterol, low fat.

✅ drink plenty of water 💧

# YOU DESERVE TO FEEL AWESOME!

# (´▽`ʃ💗ƪ)

A few days ago I heard that a stranger named Frank was in urgent need of blood.

So that day I took an hour out of my day and donated some of my blood to him.

Frank still needs Rh - blood. So don't just like this post, GO donate locally today!

Today my willingness to help a stranger made me FEEL INCREDIBLY GOOD and it only took 60 minutes!

DONATE your blood today - it could save someone deeply in need & help lessen the stress of their loved ones too! (✿◡‿◡)

*AS AN EXPAT COMMUNITY WE NEED TO KEEP EACH OTHER SAFE BY DONATING EVERY 90 DAYS TO A BLOOD BANK!*

What do you guys think about the all-you-can-eat suki/mala restaurants like MK, Suki Teenoi, and the small ones which are open very late? Are they unhealthy? Are some healthier than others? Or does it just depend what you eat there and how you prepare it? I worry about the quality of the meats, vegetables and seafood. I wonder how long they've been sitting out for, especially in the lesser known restaurants which don't have a lot of customers. I also feel like cooking everything in the mala soup and some of the other soups is not healthy, but maybe there's a healthier soup to cook it in or do some people just use water? Thanks!

Hi all

Nope you are enjoying your weekend

Picture the scene, you wake up minutes before sunrise, the weather report says the temperature is expected to hit very high and potentially dangerously high temperatures(this is for you people living in Thailand) and the pollution levels are high to dangerously high as well

What will your plans for the day be?

Thanks in advance
