Give immigration a shout.

He's working so he'd better have the right status.

He'll be properly fined if he's illegal & if your missus calls it then she gets 5%

Thais have great respect of medical doctors. Make an appointment with one that speaks some english.  Have a conversation with him/her expressing your concerns when your wife is not around, and ask him/her to talk with her. 

She is a mother she carried that child for nine months, the love and attachment she has for that child , as much as you love it, you will never understand. You trying to tell her how to behave toward her child is a fool's errand. It needs to be her idea.

Have her pediatrician talk with her.  

Sage advice indeed.

Reports from other news channels (no links allowed on here according to the rulers) that we are looking at a 1st May easing of closures in ChonBuri with restrictions being lifted.

As of tomorrow electronic stores can reopen.

I have been mailed this from pattaya ???? so can anyone else confirm the story or confirm it's truth?

I don't know if this also mean schools as it was not mentioned & I can't read the Thai language version

They have closed Thai schools until the 1st July

I drove down part of soi buakhao from the market early afternoon & the bus there had waited until it was basically full before pulling away with all the passengers seemingly Thai & one white fella

Has anyone had any dealing with PKF Thailand & care to report their findings?

They have offices in Bangkok & one in Pattaya that deal with accountancy, corporate finance & tax amoungst other things. 

What is the best SIM for making overseas calls to the UK & the US?

Can anyone point me in the direction of a tax specialist here that is knowledgeable about UK-Thai tax issues please?

For personnel tax purposes, I'm on an A/O visa

Unless he manages to get bail as he can't be considered a flight risk.....

I have a new house, well I moved into it before the builder finished as he was taking so long so I don't actuall have an official address yet for anyone to send stuff to me.

It's still a field in legal terms

Is Tukcom open?

My lad's tablet has got the virus so need a new one plus some bluetooth headphones

If you don't have a mask then how do get into a shop to buy a mask & if you are running a high temp then how do you get in anywhere to buy water, food or medicines?

Bailed out by who?

British Airways is wholly owned by IAG a Spanish company that has 25% of it's shares owned by Qatar Airlines.

Airlines have been looking to the UK government for support but quite rightly the government is reluctant to put taxpayers money into companies that have significant foreign investment.

IAG is an Anglo-Spanish company that was formed when BA & Iberia merged.

BA was a far bigger airline at the time with less debt & the split was 55% in BA's favour.

IAG is independent though & it the actual parent company.

It's based in London & Madrid with it's HQ in London in what was/is the BA HQ in Watersides which in turn is planned to be demolished if the UK government was sucessful in being allowed to build a third runway at Heathrow (now seemingly unlikely)

I owned shares in BA & used to get 10% discount which were transferred to IAG which I meant to sell at Xmas & buy Canopy stock, that milk is well spilt now.

I've been in the country when 3 seperate military coups happened.

Not much happened as far as I could see.

This is not really a practiced militia as there is no real war except for the SW of the country where bombs still go off.

Local policing is often done in the cities by the local motocycs for the most part & the boys in brown do not seem to have any respect whatsoever as they just shake people down.

Outside of the urban areas it's down to having a decent headsman who usually comes from decent family but for the most part a lot of country Thais will depend on their religion to show them the way.

I reckon that a lot of virus related deaths will not be recognised up country as C19 because there will be no ability to test post mortem & it will be put down as karma then they are cremated tout suite.

There is a really good chance that if this bites big time in places like Issan that it will not be registered as having happened at all.

I can't see a proper pro being interested in my place as they'll have done their homework so I think it would opportunists would be on snatch & grab rather than bringing their own eye piece & checking the carat quantity.

You might well be right about these robbers but all the same does anyone know where I might purchase such snide metals?
