  1. I guess like everything, it depends on who checks the paperwork.
  2. Just completed my 9th retirement extension in CM the week B4 Songkran and it's ALWAYS been a requirement to include a copy of your latest 90 day report even though the original is stapled in the back of my passport.
  3. It's not misleading at all. You do understand that by ending the heading with a ? the OP is asking a question as to whether or not there have been any changes to the rules, he is NOT making a statement.
  4. My experience has been similar in the 11 years I've been here. The Thais that know me away from my village ALWAYS call me Mr xxxx. The Thais in my village address me in 2 different ways these days, either leung (uncle) xxxx or Por Luong (father of the village) as my wife is the Mai Luong for the village. The only time I'm aware of being called a farang is when I'm with a group of Thais I've never met before, and then that only lasts a short time, as my wife always introduces me as Leung. The only time I've ever heard the term farang directed at me in a derogatory manner was years ago when out cycling through a village I hadn't been to previously and an old lady, who had obviously been influenced by Anutin calling us dirty farangs, called myself and my cycling companion dirty farangs as we rode past her house, even though we were cycling with a group of Thais. As much as I'd very much like to be able to speak Thai, despite all the lessons I've had I find it very difficult to remember most of it. I'd say my Thai language is advanced tourist Thai.
  5. there were 2 quakes in Myanmar in 2023. 31/05/23 in Mohnyin 5.9 & on 07/06/23 at Ayeyarnwady 4.8. I received text alerts on my Samsung phone for both of these quakes whilst our house in the NW of CM Province was shaking from the tremors.
  6. With all previous tremors I've received an SMS alert (no app required) on my Samsung phone while the shaking was still happening. Not this time.
  7. Once again for the aussies in this forum "Some online tax accountants are advising the Australian/Thailand DTA does not protect an Australian account based superannuation pension from taxation when the payments are brought into Thailand, however the aged pension is exempt from Thailand tax." I have had this confirmed by my District Revenue Office, CM Revenue Office and CM have sought confirmation from BKK and the response was that as the aussie aged pension is actually a social security payment it is NOT assessable income under Thai Tax law.
  8. why would you want to travel to the US with all the crap going on at the moment with ICE. legit visas being cancelled in the Immigration systems and people trying to enter the USA LEGALLY being arrested, placed in a detention center for up to 14 days AND put in chains before being deported. At the very least wait until the convicted orange felon is no longer dictator/emperor of the US.
  9. they may not know who started the fires, so prosecute the owners of the land the fires are on. If it's govt land, prosecute the govt dept. The land owners will know who's starting the fires, so they can dob them in for a reduced penalty.
  10. only a deluded, brainwashed MAGA moron would make such a comment.
  11. we were for the Korean war but we were the right age for Vietnam.
  12. Bob, are you running out of imaginary stories to post. This one is almost identical to a previous post you've made under the same title.
  13. Bob is the one wearing the red cap, and Peter is tucked under his arm.
  14. IMHO I believe there's an ongoing competition between the OP, Bob & Glamma to see who can post the most brain numbing, idiotic topics on ASEAN NOW. Time for the mods to put an end to their never ending stupidity.
  15. My question is, as the 4 arrested are not minors, and they're obviously guilty, why are their faces not being shown.?
