The defence are trying to claim the victim was high on Yaba. Personally I don't care what he may or may not have been on. It is no justification for a gang of able bodied men to assault and kill a cripple. They are a bunch of animals, thinking their fathers positions would protect them from a heinous and brutal attack. A clear message needs to be sent out from this senseless and tragic assault. No one is above the law and if those who are found guilty need to die to ensure that message is understood, so be it.

Their fathers position will most likely protect them

When arriving at Bangkok airport in November take extra care to fill the number of the re-entry permit in the departure card (in the visa field) and point to the re-entry permit at the checkpoint.

Check that you got the admitted until stamp until February (when your extension ends) immediately after the checkpoint.

Just looking at my last departure card and there doesn't appear to be a "visa field"  just name date of birth passport number nationality and flight number

Just show both passports on arrival. they will stamp the new passport. On your arrival card where they ask for visa number write the re-entry number. You will then apply for a new extension of stay in February. When you return to your home go to your local Immigration and transfer your extension of stay to your new passport. It should be free. Depending where you live you may also require a new TM30 within 24 hours of your arrival.

after they have transferred my extension into the new passport i assume i then have to return to the immigration again at the beginning of February  and re-apply  for another year extension is that correct ?

if so will my extension then run from February to February each year

hi   my old / existing passport will expire the end of February 2018

i have just obtained my retirement extension in July 2017

the immigration has stamped it until the passport expires the end of  February so i need to apply again the beginning for February

if i get a re-entry permit then return to the uk in August and obtain a new passport and return in November what will happen when i arrive at bangkok air port 

i will have a blank new passport and my cancelled old passport with the re-entry permit and my extension still in it

That little boy will be a man one day and I hope he finds the army animal and takes revenge

Are there any farang restrictions  ? Age ? Nationality ?

 

I would like to donate 

I was told that you can't put farang blood in a Thai person.  Seriously.   So I didn't bother I guess they don't want to pollut pure race

Confiscate his license and impound his car. Clearly the man in the black pickup should not be driving at all. He not only puts other road users on danger. He even puts his own family in danger. What kind of a man would endanger his own family.

 

Really pity the wife n kid, the were crying at him to stop n yet...

An investment in Thailand involves bricks and mortar, payrolls, staff and exports, all of which have a time line measured in many years.

 

Hot money is brokers, banks, finance houses and investors looking to make a quick often opportunistic return as a result of their large cash stockpiles.

 

How Thailand looses is that overseas investors must convert the currency of their hot money into Thai Baht, they will likely sell USD and buy THB in order to buy their bonds or invest in the SET. That will cause the value of THB to strengthen and is one of several factors that have caused THB to be so strong. How Thailand looses is their currency becomes so strong that Thai exports become prohibitively expensive hence the country exports less.

then the baht will loose value

Kanchanaburi is a pretty unfriendly place. Sure, theyve got the smiles but underneath from what ive been dealing with is a very primitive, racist way of thinking. In the farming areas people seem to have had no education at all. Most people around us cant even read and the officials are rolling in cash.

Its ok for a trip and will seem geeat but dont move here for a better way of life. We are now desperate to get back to the south! (Or out of the country for good)

We found as soon as we didnt buy all our neighbours land that they still try to sell which is illegal to sell/buy land type for ridiculous amounts we became hated. Thainess! Despicable.....

Travel abroad and give these officals a pay cut i think

unfriendly yes impolite  yes  got the smiles i haven't seen any yet
