  1. 100 baht per month! Thats dabbling, not smoking :)
  2. Quite possibly as the site frequently mentions they are authentic.
  3. I think they should tax it. It is so cheap now I certainly wouldn't mind a tax. My reasoning is similar to the licensing income, the more the govt makes the less likely they are to change the laws. Canada collected 4.5 billion$ since it was legalized.
  4. I've been getting good prices and service from OCB Thailand, via Line. I usually buy a box or two, good for a year. Wide variety of papers.
  5. local post office
  6. I bought a brand new iPhone SE at a nationwide electronics shop in Loei. She unpacked it and started setting it up. I told I will do that at home, no worries. I go home spend an hour setting it up and the thing is hot to the touch. I let it rest and play some more and still gets really hot. Next day take it back to the shop to exchange- no way, can not must send to Udon to authorized repair! 3 or 4 weeks was estimated repair time. I will test everything now before paying and going home.
  7. Did I say they recorded names? No, I did not. Currently shops sell recreational and medicinal freely, no need for a doctors note. Also people that do get prescriptions in the future will still be part of the public, so there will always public use.
  8. The shops I have been in recorded everything, as far as I could see. Grams, type, price. Some just took quick pics of the transaction to enter into books later. They were all licensed and followed the rules. (corruption probably same level as any other business here) 🙂 Let them collect 10% VAT and everybody could be happy.
  9. Yes, but you cant complain that the neighbours yard is a huge mess until you clean your own.
  10. More of your stories, always the stories with you. In 2008 it was 30k a kilo, it never really changed until it was legal. 3500 for 100 grams was a common price. My prices are from Isaan and North Thailand. If one backtracked the kilos they usually came from police or military. Thats who got hurt the most in the legalization. Thats who is losing revenue.
  11. Surprise! Sometimes in Thailand things aren't consistent. You should know that if you have been here since 2006. Some immigration offices need form a,b,c some want a,b,d,g,, Same with labour offices and requirements for medcheck for work permit. In Khon Kaen they tested for syph in Nan they did not. In Ubon they tested for Yabba in Chiang Mai they did not. Some Labour offices put your home address in the book some do not.
  12. About two years ago his USA brand put out edible gummies. They were little ears. 🙂 He does have a sense of humour. 🙂
  13. huh, quite the fantasy you have going on there. Says more about you than the PM.
  14. 7 years ago went into a private hospital, retina had detached. They said they could get me in the operating room in an hour. But first Mr Marcus we must check your credit cards. They checked the limits on my cards and prepped me for surgery. I have no doubt they would have turned me away if credit check failed.
  15. Whatever, you don't like masks. Fine. Dont make stuff up. The Canadian Women's Hockey team took the gold wearing N95s against Russia who played 2 periods without. The ladies were not complaining at all about breathing. So either you are lying or you have no idea what you are talking about.... could be both I guess. "hardly being able to breathe". grow up
  16. Homepro Global Thai Watsadu. Plumbing section. Faucet screens, stainless steel. Cheap as chips.
  17. Good news for them. Many perks but Govt wages are way too low here.
  18. had a 2022 Honda wave 110 new. With a bit of luggage the wobble was ridiculous, actually dangerous. Front end was way to light. 30-45 kph is always the worst zone, physics or something. Honda mechanics in 4 shops couldn't figure it out, I traded it on a 125. Sorted. Id get a different bike. I was coming up a mountain on a windy day with the 110. I leaned into a left curve and the the wind caught my front wheel. the steering went complete left, complete right and then settled down. I pulled over to change underwear and decided to sell the bike. I was surprised when one mechanic weighing in at 150kg had the same effect, I thought his weight in the middle of the bike would cancel the problem but no.
  19. I enjoy weed, I would gladly pay a reasonable tax. Other countries were it is legal tax it.
