    Rightly said Mr. Vincy, Bangkok and Naiem Uchila, what more we can expect from Jaimini P.B sharjah and people who liked his comment who himself discriminating Indians using word ‘Biharis’. Pity on his knowledge having so much of information in GOOGLE!!!! This happens when you don’t move out and explore the beautiful places instead of imaging in ugly thoughts listening to their ‘laatpotu’ friends!!!! Bollywood is really spoiling Thailand’s name in their low budget films and people believe them!!!

    Dear Naiem, Uchila,we in Bangkok and watching the health programs organized by the world bank along with Thailand Health Ministry. The minister specially invited for his achievements for ban on Gutka,free dental treatments and health benefits for BPL.The organizers sponsored the trip and it is not the tax payers money used for his trip.

    People who comment must be watching ‘comedy show of Kapil’ and learn that Bangkok is only for massage.

    All who you comment,please note that,this country has best respect for woman and woman is safe here every where to visit,shop and holiday.

    The massage and bars are part of life with due respect of human rights. It is not like India where Police can enter a unisex salon and keep condoms in the drawer and then book them for illegal activities. The Thai police never enter a bar and beat up men and woman just because the bar is open beyond the permitted time limit.

    Yes Vincy you are absolutely correct , some people just write comments for sake of writing without knowing the basics or understanding ( same like katte politics that happen in villages).

    And people in India generally think that Thailand is only for massage , they dont know that fact that almost 15-18million tourist visited Thailand last year . Yes some come for massages only, but there are many of them who come to explore the beaches , the beautiful mountains on northern parts .And women in Thailand are very safe , there are hardly any cases of rape here . Unlike India where every other day you hear about it .

    Well before commmenting atleast know something about that place !

    And Mr.Khader is very down to earth person , his achievements in short span of time is very well applauded not only in India but also Internationally . This speaks volume about Mr.Khader & he has a long way to go ! Best of luck Sir !!

    Dear Disagree Friends..I never comemented that Mr.Khadar was bad or irresponsible politician leader.He is the first Minister in Karnataka Congress who took special interest in doing his duty (Giving surprise visit to hospitals,free detnal check up for old aged people(i dont know implemented or not)like that many things.He is a simple man like Mr.J P.Hegde..Every human being needs massage.Our body needs massage.Then only our body,mind work think in a positive way.But some people misuse it..They turn massage parlour into sex parlour..Unfortunately,without understanding my comment,you people are jumping like Biharis !! Hit first,Think Next is your policy..

    Hopefully after all the sight seeing and entertainment U T Khader takes time off to learn about ways to improve the sanitation and health scenario in this district for the betterment of the people. Otherwise it will be one more wasteful expenditure of the tax payer's money.

    Remember Gutka Ban!!!!! He is specially invited by the World Bank officials and he is the minister who initiated and implemented ban on such dangerous substance. Just imagine how those people stink who consume Gutka on a regular basis and it is next step to throat cancer.
    He is the first minister who insists free medical services for poor and makes it mandatory for MBBS students to serve in villages and primary health centre on compulsory basis.
    Please note that, for massage one need not go to Bangkok and it is available in every city of India.

    How did Thailand get it's name? Folklore has it that people used to come here for 'Thigh' massage and often 'Land' in trouble there and at home. Hence the name Thailand.(In Kannada it is called 'ApoorvaSandhi'Thigh Land=Thailand).

    Acquiring knowledge is a nice initiative to improve our health care system. I urge with Honourable Minister to concentrate some basic things especially in his home town Mangalore. Our city is crunching by tentacles of illness. Poor roads, unattended waste collection skips, scattered waste in and around the road, lack of civic sense, unprecedented construction all contributes poor health condition. Accumulated water in the construction sites is breeding ground for notorious mosquitoes. Every day new type of viral disease popping up, Mangalore one time home for Filaria and Malaria, now Dengue like viral disease. My many Keralite friends share their bad experience in the city while they are living in 70 – 80’s.
    Now Dengue like deadly disease spreading in Mangalore, Number of cases reported in Hospitals doubled from last year. As per one of famous Doctor, next year will be more severe impact of the Dengue in and around Mangalore. Precaution is better than cure, therefore, our young, pragmatic Health Minister will take necessary steps to curb the these viral diseases and make our city a better place to live.

    Massage Centre's are private and Government doesn't own them. Dismissed!

    For all those who say or think its a tour for Mr. Khader. Do you all even know for how many days did he go there? And people like you can sit at Home and comment, But dont know what he is doing for the state. I dint know people here call a 1 day 2 day visit to Thailand as a "TOUR". Grow Up.
