  1. "pay for play" ... if you actually get performance then consider yourself lucky ????
  2. I think the service is aimed at the young folk, not Chicken Little types who are afraid to cross the road.
  3. Don't even need to do that, the URL and the App name are clearly visible in the photo. Apologies to anyone that is optically challenged, thankfully I can still make out the detail.
  4. Answered a thousand times before. Old news, give it a rest.
  5. Yes, but a TR60 is not a Non-Immigrant visa.
  6. Your agent is either lying to you or is incompetent. A quick Google search brings up a couple of previous threads, including one from the late great Ubon Joe, that say it is a fairly straightforward process to change the reason for your extension of stay from employment to retirement. https://aseannow.com/topic/1085564-non-b-conversion-to-retirement-visa/ https://aseannow.com/topic/1304886-non-b-to-non-o-retirement/
  7. An electric 'tuk tuk' that runs on a fixed route for a fixed price is Thailand's main tourist attraction? Are you sure you're an old hand?
  8. 2 pax is 649 baht, not 798. Which is apparently a lot of money for some of the young people so maybe the OP should just walk instead, like that English couple who have been spamming this site with their attempt at a travel blog ????
  9. Ha ha I thought it was by Adam Judd as well because I didn't bother to click on the link but if you do you'll see it's written by some chap named Tom Sinclair from Pembrokeshire (whatever that is ????)
  10. Oops I got it wrong, despite it saying "by Adam Judd" the article was written by this chap: "Tom Sinclair https://pembrokeshire-herald.com/ Tom is the editor of https://pembrokeshire-herald.com/ and a frequent guest writer for us as he often visits Thailand and enjoys the culture and history." Sorry, I didn't click on the link to the Pattaya News article like I normally would, the tone of the first few paragraphs put me off and now I know why ????
  11. It's in the photo the OP attached, on the roof of the "tuk tuk". https://www.tuktukhop.com/ I didn't delve into the full details viz routes and value-for-money because it doesn't interest me. As I said above, EV tuk tuks are an abomination ????
  12. you don't need to speak Thai, the website is in English ????
  13. Prices are on the website?
  14. The price for that hop on hop off service is fixed and looks quite reasonable. Only downside seems to be that the tuk tuk isn't actually a tuk tuk because it's an EV and therefore doesn't make the proper sound.
  15. Sure, why not? But you'd want a proper ICE tuk tuk with a big fat noisy exhaust, flashing lights and a bangin' sound system. Not that sedate looking EV thing in the picture. And yes l, I am being serious.
  16. Here's the tribute page for Ubon Joe: https://aseannow.com/topic/1294073-rip-ubon-joe-asean-now-visa-expert/
  17. That's an updated version of the slogan with "it begins with the people" tracked on to the end. The marketing brochure that can be found at the link below should put the matter to rest... The Amazing Thailand 1998-99 campaign - Travel Impact Newswire https://www.travel-impact-newswire.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/TheGreatestStory-1998.pdf
  18. The post above yours dates it as early as 1998. Think you might have misread that Google result.
  19. You sound as impotent as the Aussie dude who I responded to. For all your bluster there's nothing your can do about the syndication agreement that the big Cheese has with the other news outlets. Man up and buy the website if you really feel that strongly about it.
  20. The article is by Adam Judd from the Pattaya News, not "TVF" (whatever that is).
