  1. Perhaps the OP would care to enlighten us on the nature of the "deal" proposed between the Russian and American parties ? Reporting the Russian will mean that the RTP will be more than interested in investigating him......and all that entails !
  2. Hope she's not been taken advantage of by a family member or "friend", as seems a regular occurrence these days.
  3. Indeed, but not so much incentive to overstay with the intent of working illegally.
  4. 5% gambling 95% prostitution (under different guises , massage /karaoke/dancing ) no doubt.
  5. I'd liken some folk's overstay to not renewing tax on a motorcycle....don't do it once. never have an issue so never bother doing it again. The penalty if you do get caught out obviously far greater though !
  6. Watched again and I believe the reason he's at the right of the lane is a combination of having to go out because of the parked motorcycle half blocking the lane ahead and the moto-taxi guy trying to squeeze through on the inside.
  7. The damage would seem to suggest he was turning Right ,though wouldn't it ?
  8. Flowery. embellished drivel, intended to sensationalize ....and it fails. At least the associated photo appears relevant this time.
  9. I'd agree, the drain may have come into play because of the parked motorcycle a few metres ahead causing the lane to narrow even more.
  10. Seems like he got himself squeezed between the motorcycle and the bus and wobbled into the latter. Lucky chap given that he wasn't wearing any headgear. Nice to see people stopping to assist, but not the motorcycle guy, who went around him and carried on .😁
  11. Go out of your room, turn left, 100 meters turn right. 50 meters and wait at the corner. Sorted !
  12. Such as being asked to endorse measures he doesn't agree with perhaps ?
  13. How's that work then ? Does her Mum qualify twice then ?
  14. Indeed, they've recently become a source of great national pride !
  15. Have been dealing with essentially the same situation. In this case the UK bank would not release funds (if more than Gbp 5000) without probate deeming "administrative person" being provided. Applying for such for the Thai widow is rather complicated ! Apparently banks have different policies regarding release of funds.
  16. Probate needs to be applied for in both countries. Therefore it is simpler to make separate wills in both countries pertaining to the assets held in each particular country .
  17. i suspect the abused woman. in the forest, with the "white liquor" ,,,,,and a cigarette lighter .
  18. Just an expression. you know. as in well-suited, deserving of each other.....as in a "couple" of not so nice people.
  19. A couple made for each other.....until they weren't !
  20. Lets hope you don't have to regret this comment.
  21. Did you help him with that ?😁
  22. Forget your apologetic agenda for a moment and consider all the stories related to Thai family/friend feuds etc. Many a wedding or religious occasion results in violent confrontation. You can blame society in general if you like, but you can't blame it all on foreigners. For every "nasty" foreigner a local encounters there will be hundreds who will show respect . Don't restrict yourself to these click=bait headlines of foreigners behaving badly.
  23. Realize that the "daily lives" of this particular breed concerns late night sexual pestering/harassment of foreigners often with a sideline of theft. Any disruption to their activities is to be praised.
  24. It's obviously workable for those already encompassed and participating in the process, but as far as the established pensioner here. can't currently see how it can be effectively enforced. How are these people to be contacted to advise them of the new obligations....Not everyone is an avid reader of AN and it's hard to assume responsibility for something you're unaware of.
