which green one? There are 2.

It was explained in a Thaivisa post in 2019 when he was head of Immigration where the name Big Joke came from. His father loved to play a game of cards that included the use of the joker. It was a card he consistently managed to have & use in the hands he was dealt, and his son was given the nic name joke ( short for joker ) by his father's card playing companions, and it stuck. So like many Thai police when they get promoted to a certain level the term Big is attached to their nic names, hence big joke.

The questions this accident raises are many. Should such aged children as 14 be riding motorcycles? - NO What does it say about road safety education if they are driving a vehicle - and a motorcycle at that - while on the phone? - there is none What is likely to happen to the apparently entirely innocent pick-up drivers involved in such a tragedy? Someone will find a way to blame him and try to extract money from him How can needless accidents like this, that are not only devastating on a human level but disastrous from an economic standpoint, be reduced? Proper training and law enforcement Should the police be on the lookout for transgressions and doing something to enforce traffic laws? DEFINITELY Should their supposed masters - the politicians - be doing more to ensure the RTP enforce the law? Definitely Do the politicians even care? NO Should schools do more to train students - even the underaged when it comes to riding or driving - in good habits on the roads? Not the schools responsibiility, it's the parents, but as many have posted in other topics, you can't cure laziness or stupidity

they do that all the time here. Walk in our front gate and help themselves to mangos when they are in season or walk down to the back yard, all of which are fenced off and help themselves to whatever might be growing at the time, e,g, lettuce, chilli, pumpkins, sweet potato, bananas. Took me a while to get used to it, but that's what they do.

I'm 72 and mine cost 102k THB after no claim discount and me paying the first 40k was applied.

I'm not going to say you're wrong re the illegal coup, but I believe that every rewritten Thai constitution over the last 80 years or so has had a provision in it that actually makes military coups legal. As I said I'm not saying you're wrong or that I'm right, just expressing what I understand the situation to be.

exactly. That kind of updating process will not show that you still have the 800k in the bank 3 months after your extension is processed, and it will not show that you have it 2 months prior to the next extension. The passbook has zero history between updates, just all the transactions lumped together. I have a dedicated passbook for Immigration and fell foul of this very early on, even before the current rule of 3 months after came into effect. So every year I print my own statements, in colour, and have the bank stamp and sign the page relevant to the month I'm doing my extension. Don't get charged a fee, and Immigration have always accepted. The thing to remember is that Immigration cannot tell the difference between a statement issued by the bank or one that you print yourself, if you print in colour, as they are identical in appearance, and the stamp and signature make it look like the bank has issued it.

Don't be surprised if you still get asked for statements. When passbooks are updated they do not update transaction by transaction, they just total the deposits total the withdrawals since the last update. The statements are to show that you've met the seasoning requirements, viz. 3 months after and then 2 months prior.

Same here. Had 4th jab yesterday, and MOPH was updated before leaving the health center.

I print my own 12 month statement from my bank's (ttb) online banking site. I print it in colour and when I go to get my bank guarantee letter I ask them to stamp and sign the the most recent page, viz the month that I'm doing my extension. No issues at all with the bank about this, and accepted by Immigration.

The format of a Thai will makes provision for you to dictate how your remains are disposed of .e.g. cremation, burial or repatriation to home country. How many more threads on this topic have to appear before people realise how easy it is to sort these things out, AND you do not need a lawyer if you have nominated an executor in your Thai will.

The match may have been in the planning for 2 years, BUT tickets only went on sale earlier this year. So another typical ASEAN Now uninformed comment.

well if you look at what they just charged for the Liverpool v Man U game ( 100% mark up on the prices agreed to by both clubs ) then they already have one aspect perfected.

they have pro shops but they don't sell clubs, just accessories, balls, shirts, gloves, tees etc.

No, a donkey would have polled better than uncle Tu

Try looking up[ Leonian Thailand, they are located in Krung Thep ( Bangkok )have a Facebook page and they are the authorised distributors for Callaway in Thailand. Also try Photalai Golf Park, there used to be an authorised Callaway retail outlet there. That's where I got my last set of Callaway's in 2015

I've heard that Thanya Plaza is no longer the golf shopping paradise as it has been closed for the last 12 months. I'd suggest contacting the distributor for Callaway in Krung Thep (Bangkok) and he should be able to steer you in the right direction.

"Under AIS’s pre-paid phone service program, customers who pay 50 baht can use the service for five days, 300 baht for 30 days and 500 baht for 50 days or 1,500 baht for 365 days". What a load of codswallop. I use AIS prepaid and top up with only 50 baht and that allows me to use the service for 30 days NOT 5 days. Have been using the service this way for 8 years now.

check that rate again. It's been below 25. ( low to mid 24's) for the last month or so. Even though the AUD is not that strong against the USD, it seems to be the only currency that the baht is getting stronger against.

You've missed my point completely. The ticket prices agreed to by L F C & Man U were supposed to range from GBP57.00 (2,500.00THB) up to GBP285.00 (12,500.00 THB) NOT the 15,000 THB to 25,000 THB they were actually sold for. This is where the real scandal lies, not what the singer is doing.

The real scandal is not how she managed to buy so many tickets, BUT the fact that the ticket prices ( for all sections) were DOUBLE the ticket prices that Liverpool and Man U agreed to.

50k baht damage is expensive, but truth be known the bike would have cost considerably more. My all graphite road bike was 62k baht. These guys that compete at that level would be paying hundreds of thousands of baht for their bikes.

(raw weed is inactive one will never get stoned no matter how much is consumed). Not entirely true. Made a pot of marijuana tea just steeping the leaves in boiling water and some milk, no buds, and was high for around 8-10 hours after drinking just 2 cups in the space of an hour.
