  1. Maybe someone can invent a tool to keep the aggressive thieving katoeys at bay.
  2. Definitely closed on 13th. And probably 14th Oct too.
  3. I just returned from a visit to the Central Rama 3 and Big-C on Rama 4 Road in Bangkok. Almost everyone was wearing a mask. I would venture to say over 95%
  4. And what is Mrs. Suwan Jessen's (54yrs) relationship with Mr. Tony (70yrs)?? What is the name and age of the tourist and the moto driver?
  5. If that is a measure of progess, I will wait for the day when Canada also progresses to a level allowing 45 days exempt to Thai (and other) nationals arriving by air or land border.
  6. You have to pay at the counter while ordering, even if you are going to eat ay a table in the shop.
  7. Yesterday I went to buy a sanwich and coffee at a Starbucks outlet in Rama 4 road in Bangkok and tried to pay cash and was told that they only accept either a credit card or an online transfer using QR code. No cash accepted even for a 20 baht water bottle if you were to buy one.
  8. If your single day earning in Australia is sufficient to purchase the land and the house built on it, that would be the better thing to do rather than get into a lengthy litigation.
  9. "The owner of the boat, who rented it to the tourist, and the skipper are facing similar charges". Sorry to disappoint you.
  10. Yes, I can confirm that we were also asked for a 'gift' of 50,000 THB (apart from the official fee). Before asking, the officer went through my documents and casually commented (or rather commended) that both me and my wife were earning 'high' salaries.
  11. The poster said "This must be a Thai way of solving problems". Can you explain what that means? For me it sounds like it is unique to Thailand, not common anywhere else!
  12. Yes, you are right. Nobody in any other country in the world has ever shot someone else, never ever heard of it. This is indeed a unique Thai way to solve issues.
  13. You might want to check if the amount in the Australian Bank is guaranteed 100%?
  14. A few minths ago, I opened an FCD (Foreign Currency Deposit) account at the green bank (Kasikorn), took about 30 minutes (I have a savings account at the same branch). Remitted in USD from my own overseas account and it reached in 3 days.
  15. Are you looking for American big size? A 'Medium' in USA could be an XXL in Asia.
  16. If renewing the 40 million baht investment after the three year period is not a condition for continuing to own the land, many foreigners will be interested to see further details. If allowed to invest it in stocks or bonds, a 3 year period is quite short. And one rai of land is good enough for a nice house with a small garden and pool.
  17. "Found dead clutching human hair." Was it hair from the head, or pubic hair?
  18. I am sure lots and lots of women would want to catch up (on lost earnings) ????????????
