  1. Pie in the sky. In any event, the 2024 deadline mentioned in the headline is nothing to do with the proposed race.
  2. Buy a blood pressure monitor (they're not expensive) and test yourself every day for BP and pulse.
  3. I'm still waiting for a refund for flights to and from Vietnam at the start of the Covid outbreak. My oown small protest is to not book any more flights with the airline until I get the refund.
  4. Usually not. Last but one time, I got a reminder. This time, I didn't.
  5. No, it's not. Very limited routes . Like many others, these bus routes don't come within miles of my house.
  6. This was exactly the same as my experience when trying to get a TIN.
  7. Because, although they want asylum, they're not that mad.
  8. I don't agree. I live on an estate in Bangkok and there is no public transport of any type within 4 kilometres. And try getting a taxi or Grab etc. during rush hours and you'll wish you had a car.
  9. He probably wants to stay healthy.
  10. where are they in Bangkok?
  11. Refilling water bottles, even with other bottled water, is unhealthy as it leads to a build-up of bacteria.
  12. Under Thai law a will is not revoked by marriage. It is obvious that you should, however, review your situation.
  13. I had the same reaction but a call to the bank's head office resulted in a positive reaction.

There is certainly an enormous lack of investment in sports by government in Thailand, but is this because government thinks that Thais in general would not make use of greater investment. This might be because they are perceived as lazy or uninterested because of heat and humidity - which may apply generally throughout south and southeast Asia - or that they lack the physique necessary for success in many sports.
  15. The same as tattoos on men; I don't see the difference. I don't like them, but each to his own.
  16. The same happened to me in a Bangkok Tax Office,
  17. I think the lawyer may be jumping the gun as he does not seem to have considered the fact that the machine was faulty and did not lock the money in. It then becomes an argument between the bank and the ATM manufacturer/owner.
  18. Or even banning buildings more than 1 floor high.
  19. Whereas there are approximately 220,000 of them.
  20. Thailand does pretty well at 108.
  21. My Thai friend has been moaning about UOB's useless app. She intends to give up her old Citi credit card and get one from another bank.
