meanwhile, yesterday Jan 20, about 1 km from the runway of bkk suvarnabhumi airport...: 

Just did it yesterday and they told us that it is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. Because our Phor Ngor Dor 1 Did not have the certification from the tax department (Wanted the extension of stay based on marriage / prove the income by working contract in Thailand).

Science developed new methods to plant rice using a lot less water. Whilst for example in Vietnam new methods are partly enforced by the government In Thailand any progress is widely refused. Som Nam Na

For the extension of stay I need a letter of acceptance of income according to criteria from the authorized signatory of the entity. (Do they mean a letter from my employer?) and what exactly should be stated in the letter then?

And if I understand this wrong: Where do I get this letter from?

of course the other things like the income tax declaration and the work permit I have

Not only stars are leaving trails, planes on the downwind path before landing at BKK are leaving trails as well ????

and take pictures with three seconds exposure .....

It's a forum about photography ????

So yeah, three seconds, that's not a general rule. It depends on the ambient light (Light pollution), the moon, clouds. Exposure time can be anywhere from one second to a minute, also depending on the ISO set up. For the most time I use an ISO between 800 and 1600

I find the question about which camera was used interesting. I guarantee that this is not about the camera. Any camera with a decent sensor ( in this case just an APS-C sensor) can do the job. Even a micro 4/3 sensor which is slightly smaller is able to catch such trails. A bit more important but not really is a decent lens. A bit more money invested gives you A bit more in sharpness. So really it can be any Nikon, Canon, Sony, Panasonic or Olympus camera. I bet I could achieve the same results easily.

In this case I used a Tamron 17-50 2.8 lens, 400 pictures with three seconds exposure each at an aperture of 3.5. Of course I didn't take the pictures by hand, I used an intervalometer.

Yeah I used my old Canon EOS 450 D ( I think in the US it sold as Rebel 3i), Which is now 10 or 11 years old.

So you're asking yourself if you can get the same results? Sure, just get out and do it ???? Don't forget to pack your tripod

thx so much everyone ????

I had a nonimmigrant visa based on marriage run out of validity a few days ago. Anyway since the last entry gave me a stay until January 13 there is no problem but can I still apply for an extension of stay Based on marriage or do I have to get a fresh nonimmigrant visa with the validity of three months (single entry) somewhere? I also have a work permit with enough income, so from that side also no problem.

Immigration would only want to see evidence that you received a salary of at least 50K pm month for a couple of months prior to the next extension.

and if it is say 25,000 in one and 75,000 in another? Ok or not ok? 

I have a work permit valid for one year and a salary of 60,000 Baht per month.

A)     for an extension of stay based on the work permit the 60,000 Baht per month are a requirement

B)     The work permit needs to be renewed next year. Same thing: it is necessary to have at least 60,000 Baht every month. 

So the question right now is if it must be 60,000 Baht per month or is it OK to have a combined salary of 720,000 baht per year?

Because this month of October I have to fly back to Europe to take care of my grandparents for 3 weeks. And for this time, these 3 weeks, I would like to take an unpaid leave.

Then in the upcoming months I would simply work more which would result in a higher salary so that after all, after one year, the salary overall would equal or exceed 720,000 baht.

I think we do this now: 

Living in Bangkok for 10 years, flying in and out of Thailand ever since we always followed the laws and the rules.. That also means that we always did the TM 30 for me. I do not remember a single incident. We came back from a trip on August 23 sent out the TM 30 to the immigration as always. So it was sent out August 24.

Yesterday, September  14 the letter from the immigration came back. But this time it's different.. They rejected the included TM 30 form.

They now need many more documents. Documents that we do not have at our own property and documents we need to get from the government departments first.

Now, on Friday we came back from another trip abroad. And just before I wanted to bring the New TM 30 registration papers to the post office My wife opened the rejected previous registration (Note that they need  three weeks  to have a look at papers that we send over to them within the required 24 hour timeframe)

So what to do now? We want to follow the law but since there was no hint on the TM 30 form that they need many more papers we are not prepared for that. And can now not follow the law?

I never need anything from the immigration,  so the there is not even a real problem if we do not follow the law, right? Just skip the correct registration in the future and hope for the best? I mean my wife would need to take a leave from work to get these papers like house registration…

since the stove is on our terrace where it gets wet during rain I guess that rust is the main problem.

It is not really dirty. I tried to clean everything a bit but not much result.

Why should the pressure be a problem? Have used several bottles of gas and never had a problem. When the gas was finished it just stopped working  instantly. It always worked until the last second

So finally I ordered a new gas stove for just 360 baht

Yeah, I tried to clean, it is maybe the rust? I can not see any dirt in the small outlets for the gas. I went through the small wholes with a pin needle but no improvement. the other holes I treated with an iron saw and see some improvement. I guess it is the rust...

Just how to get the rust out of these tiny holes...?

1st pic is lowest, last highest gas flow

from one day to another. unusable since pots get black...

Thank you very much, Sanmyintmaung - so you also know that the employment office accepted this workaround the law when it came to extend the work permit for another year?
