Majority of Americans concerned about Biden’s mental health: new poll
alex8912 replied to Scott's topic in World News
Even die hard democrats have never said they have a stable of good candidates. Can you share perhaps three of their names? Where were these people just two years ago? -
Now this is really something that Americans should freak out about. Not 50 people sent to Martha's Vineyard for 44 hours. How was there no follow up on these funds that should be so extremely easy to follow up on? These people spend millions of $$ on houses around the world, cars etc. in a very short period of time. Complete scum.

The surprising details behind DeSantis’ and Abbott’s immigration stunts
alex8912 replied to Scott's topic in World News
There is every resource available on Martha's Vineyard year round. There are for sure 50 jobs available as well. You act like it's some backwards hick island when in fact it's one of the nicest wealthiest places in the United States with tons of empty mansions from now till June for sweet accommodations. The Massachusetts national guard were called in to ship them off in 44 hours! What a joke. Now they are back in Cape Cod and will probably soon be in the Boston area using their McD's coupons and of course playing with their expensive phones and all wearing very decent clothes. I'm here watching it on TV now. I don't watch CNN however. I was however in both Nantucket and Martha vineyard AFTER Labor Day this year. Both places were very busy and I was there during the week. I have pics for you. You seem to know an awful lot. -
Again. There is not a single word in this post that states the 45 day visa exempt can be EXTENDED for 30 or 45 more days in country at immigration. One expert mentioned it would be 30 days. But can someone FINALLY let all of us know what the exact extension can be for? I completely understand that a 30 or 45 day extension at any immigration office can be denied for some reason. My question is can it for SURE at least be attempted for 30 or 45 days more? Can you please prove it? Thanks! Just because the 30 day visa exempt can be extended 30 days does not equal that the 45 day visa exempt can be extended 45 or 30 days. Do you know why? TIT With TIT in mind. Is this 45 day visa exempt ( for countries that have been given 30 in the past) be available until EXACTLY 3/31/23 or as the article states " the end of March" the end of March can be March 26 th! Thanks again.

US national in mystery death fall from Nonthaburi building
alex8912 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
I think if you look just at the Pattaya area with maybe 1 million people in the area it seems that jumpers or people accidentally falling and I think some for sure pushed off the rate seems very high. Bangkok with 8-10 million seem much less even. Moscow and Peking I really don't know about but they are very large populated areas. We also don't even hear about all of these jumps mostly the ones with Westerners involved. I live in a large city in the USA 1/2 the year and it's extremely rare to read about a jumper. The area I'm in has about 5 million in the metro area. When some posters argue this ( not you) I think they just want to be difficult or different, certainly not correct. -
What I've seen no one has answered is at the very few places that ask for vax proof are they looking for any certain date of your last vax? Mine was November 2021. I don't know anyone in my home country who got a Covid vax in 2022. If these places or airlines accept your last vax date in 2021 why in the world would they even ask? Seems pretty strange to me.

Your views on drugs is antiquated. Where are you " seeing " these drug addicts and did you go up to them and say " what did you start doing?" . The biggest " gateway" to hard drugs is alcohol btw. Pattaya had losers 30, 20 and 10 years ago. Nothing is increasing. There are many states in the USA where pot is legally sold and the towns that have dispensaries are doing just fine. The tax $$ added to towns/states and jobs created are simply astounding and in the billions of dollars. Jeez if you didn't see tattooed boomers in Pattaya years ago and still don't see them today you need new glasses.

And in most of the world no one is wearing masks in banks , malls , supermarkets and thousands of flights everyday. With absolutely no huge outbreaks. Amazing.
-
The few staff at these locations probably have to wear a mask. Why not go by what the majority of customers do? In most large stores it's easy to distance yourself as well. So why would you need a mask?

Why would you ever ask? Why do some foreigners automatically wait until the driver puts their window down and ask/beg to go somewhere? Why doesn't everyone just get in the back seat say hello in Thai, let the driver know where you want to go in Thai and guess what? The driver hits the meter to go and you are off!! Works 99.9 % in most cases. I mean where the heck do some people go that makes drivers say no? That might be the only problem. One last thing. Know which side of a main road is the best side to your destination and NEVER go beg a standing taxi who is waiting at a popular area. How difficult is that?

They come over here. They work hard. They raise nice children who are productive. They are great neighbors. These are things mentioned everyday by white guys in their 50's and 60's in many countries. Your list is quite dramatic and incorrect.

I've wanted to start a thread on this just before high season but there wasn't one the last couple of years. I do find some of them come back for the sunset for 30 minutes and to pick up their old copy of Der Speigel however. Now what I find funny is that the OP refers to the German as " single " with a wife back in Germany!?? Huh? Finally if the OP comes back and says the guy with the nose does tell a lot of lies and is from a Tuscan Village in Italy and his name is Pinocchio I think the thread may have to be shut down for lack of information.

Thai Covid Center approves visa period extensions for foreign tourists

How do you know that 45 + 30 is definitely possible? -
Thai Covid Center approves visa period extensions for foreign tourists
alex8912 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
My country has treated an extremely large amount of Thais with 10 year multiple entry visas on there first or second try for a visa ( the first timers got one entry and 10 year multiple entry the next try. I still see why Thais are treated strictly in other countries as well. For me even a simple 60 day visa in Thailand can take over two weeks to get and they do want a lot stupid things that other countries doing e visas ( instantly or less than 24 hrs in most countries) do not ask for. Now even the METV is much harder to get and takes possibly 3 weeks! So I think you should be more open minded about the whines!! I mean an e visa should simply not take more than 24hrs to get. It's just pure stupidity. -

If you can't figure out why Thais do not get 30 or 90 days without a visa to visit Europe or USA or Canada then you may be the goon today. I mean really. Think about this for one minute what might happen if any Thai with a passport could do this?? Think....... -
Thai Covid Center approves visa period extensions for foreign tourists

Many people come 90 days + in the Wintertime. You are wrong and people who come 4/5 months are still tourists. Have you ever heard of snow birds? Thousands in Thailand. -
Thai Covid Center approves visa period extensions for foreign tourists
alex8912 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
It's amazing that the first basic question anyone who receives visa exempt for 30 days and could easily extend in country for 30 more days NOW would ask. Would we be able to arrive with 45 days and then extend 45 more days for 1900 baht after Oct 1. But nowhere is this discussed. If it's 45 days only it's worse! If it's 45 + 15 it's ridiculous!! Why can't these goons know that this would not come up?? It should be 45 + 45.
