I need to get health insurance for my infant daughter can you recommend a policy, and where to buy?

last updated 5th July 2010

Actually, unless your daughter is being insured with a parent, you only have one option in Thailand. Thai Health Insurance (THI) is only the health insurer that will insure a child alone. And where to buy? You can buy through us. (See attachments).

Simply Healthy is basic hospital inpatient coverage.
Wealthy Healthy is basic hospital coverage with supplemental major medical coverage.
Both Simply Healthy and Wealthy Healthy provide cover for doctor visits for emergency accidents Optional outpatient coverage is similar for both plans. It pays for visits to the doctor up to the limits of the coverage you choose. Please call me or e-mail me if you have any questions.

Fear of change?

In Thailand the government has set 2012 as English Speaking Year with a goal of encouraging students to converse in English every Monday. Such policies are useful but the major leap of enacting legislation to make English an official language for Thailand is also needed

Software for student tests

The integration of internet and computers with education and English learning is something students find normal, and classrooms without some access to educational software may seem quaint. Some students may even feel they can get more ‘professional' teaching from the numerous online ELT sites if a school is behind in IT.

Whatever happened to the shopping mall teacher?

They are the shopping mall English teachers - gliding like pale, undernourished phantoms amid the hordes of weekend Thai shoppers. The main reason I empathize with the shopping mall teacher is because I was once one myself. I know how desperate and soul-destroying it can be.

About Ajarn.com

Ajarn.com was started as a small hobby website in 1999 by Ian McNamara. It was a simple way for one Bangkok teacher to share his Thailand experiences and pass on advice. The website developed a loyal and enthusiastic following. In 2004, Ian handed over the reins to Phil Williams and 'Bangkok Phil' has run the ajarn website ever since.

Ajarn.com has grown enormously and is now the most popular TEFL site in Thailand - possibly even South East Asia. Although best-known for its vibrant jobs page, Ajarn has a wealth of articles, blogs, features and help and advice. But one principle has always remained at Ajarn's core - to tell things like they are and to do it with a sense of humor. Thailand can be Heaven or Hell for an English teacher. It's always been Ajarn.com's duty to present both sides of the equation. Thanks for stopping by.
