  1. Isn't it supposed to be the opposite? Shouldn't the construction law ensure that buildings can withstand an earthquake since the 2000s?"
  2. For my part, i needed to click twice to get the answer accepted. The 1st time, the click was not registered. I don't think you cannot NOT PASS ... this is not a real test ... just have to watch until the end ... and answer some questions which are not really related to the video you were watching ... Yes, get the QR code, this will save you 2h there ! Also, you need a medical certificate, as there are 2 different URL to know the document to show, and one does not have Medical Certificate included. I did mine in Rajavej, 15mn, sign a paper, 150thb if I remember correctly. Phil
  3. And of course you have some/many foreigners, to be fair, who are saying : "If the Thai can do, why not me ". OK, maybe not the majority, but they are often the same ones who keep saying "Thai do not respect anything" 😉 What surprises me is : - 1 Thailand has nice roads, often well marked, not same a 3rd class country. - 2 Even if you are educated, as 5 or 7 years in high school/master degree, the way they are driving often does not improve ... well, as they are Hi-so now, they can do. - 3 Thai people as pedestrian, in everyday life, will be the ones helping you, smiling to you, try to let you go first if you are older ... Put them on a motorbike or in a car, they act opposite ! Sad... Drive safe, stop 20m before pedestrian crossing, open your warning lights, and try to warn the pedestrian if you see someone fast coming. If you stop too close, this is a death trap for the pedestrian.
  4. You can... if no other car, and no pedestrian crossing ... but of course... not many care !
  5. This was just a question 😉 I always do it all by myself and never used any agency, agent, add to help me in 25 years . I am just working and if I could have the chance to do it 100% online, it was saving me a day taken of my holidays. I understand it is a NO 😉 Thanks.
  6. I know that.. Believe me... We really hope that la Nina will bring some rain early... I read it in the news.. So it should be true 😅🤔
  7. Well, it is true that the figures in the north are not perfect (PM2.5 : 27 this morning in Chiangmai) but we are so so far from what will/should happen in some weeks/months here that I personally feel quite OK now. A little bit too dramatic for the northern province.
  8. Not at all. Just the dlt thread on motor form discussion Renewing your driver’s licence online With your training certificate ready, you can proceed with the renewal process. While some aspects still require a physical visit to the DLT office in certain provinces, the renewal process has largely moved online, making things simpler for expats. That's why I ask specifically for cnx province...
  9. Anyone knows if in Chiangmai , to renew a 5 years car driving license, we can do 100% online ? Also, do we still need a health certificate ? Important words are Chiangmai / renew 5 years as other cases could be different. Thanks for help Phil.
  10. Good luck finding one... Let us know if you have any positive results. Cheers. Phil
  11. Went in front of Mad Dog last Sunday to see if anything has changed ... I just took this picture 😞 Anyone knows if any decision has been made (rebuilding/leaving it) ... ? Phil.
  12. I really hope they can - are allowed to - rebuild. New decorations have been done some months ago (floor and chairs) , so that's no luck. Girls were devastated. I really hope insurance will help enough. I am quite sure many former customers will be willing to help if necessary. Wait and see, but their Christmas Turkey will be a miss this year ! Phil.
  13. Go. COMPUTER Plaza. They will identify the cause. Mainly monitor broken. 2000-3000 thb depending on the size and model.
  14. Any update on Asus service center (Notebook) in Chiangmai .... most of the phone numbers are not valid anymore. Anything recent ?
  15. Anything on the BYD mini... Coming to Thailand?
  16. Answering my own question ...it is not !
  17. Hello Anyone knows if the "Drive through" at CM immigration, for 90 days reports, close during lunch ? Thanks
  18. Oh that's sad .. as they have a cheap car, Neta V2, good for school trip and city ... this market is full of sharks .. war is going on ! Who will be next ?
  19. Other question, little bit hijacking my own topic 😃: Any reliable taxi conpany to Hua Hin, I have seen many websites offering travel from 1,800 to 2,000 thb , BKK to Hua Hin. Any preferences ?
  20. Thanks for all answers.. I will try to drive west of Bangkok, not going on 35, and reach the highway 4 later. ... and if I can, yes early morning 😉 Phil
  21. Car ... from North to Hua Hin but construction on the Highway 35 and maybe Highway 4 worries me.
  22. Hi everyone Sorry if this question was asked recently (did not find it) but what is the situation from Bangkok center to Hua HIn now, and the construction of high speed train ? Still a real mess ? Other alternatives ? Phil.
  23. That's Thailand, "mai pen rai" attitude, but I can "live with it" on private cars, even if not acceptable, or dangerous .. But when we deal with bus, taxi, minivan, song-teow, that everyone can use, we really need to do a proactive check yearly. Really sad story ....
  24. That's often how this works between Financing company and car reseller... profit has to come from one way or another. I was once refused to pay cash a Toyota sure car, as I needed to get a 2 or 3 years loan mandatory.
  25. Ooops... Yes, live.. But if they leave, it's OK 😁
