  1. IMHO it's a bit over the top:

    You see a toddler walking alone somewhere and if you don't do anything about it, you say: "I left it to die!" Was the toddler dying?

    You saved a child from falling 5 stories.......really??

    If I have to respond every time I see people in more or less dangerous situations, I'd have to behave as the guy in the blue and red nylon suit with a big "S" on his chest.

  2. It's not a "school-thing", but it is a Thai (or Asian) thing: payments upfront, deposits, guarantee, etc.

    You will see in the foreseeable future, that everything you would like to buy or obtain requires a payment up-front.

    Sometimes ridiculous small amounts, sometimes refundable but mostly not.

    Whatever happens: Before any kind of service or good will be delivered, a 100% payment must be completed.

  3. I would suggest, to use a so called "Vip Visa Service".

    Slightly more expensive, but only six peoples in the Minibus.

    And a better chance to avoid one of these reckless, suicidal acting <deleted> driver.

    If you'd like a VIP service and no reckless driver, go for 5-Star visarun in The Sportsman Bar Soi 13 off Pattaya Beach Road.

    For a whopping THB 2300-THB 2500 (many-runners get a discount), you'll start from 6 a.m. with a breakfast up to your choice (included), van drives off around 6.45 a.m. with 2 stops on the way to Ban Laem.

    After the visa forth-and-back has finished you'll head back and start with a light lunch (included) in the mini-van.

    Also on the way back 2 stops for the smokers.

    If you fill in the survey you will receive a coupon for a free drink (included) in the Sportsman bar.

    Applying can be done online or in person in the Sportsman Bar.

    Besides your passport, you'll need to bring 2 pass photo's.

    Very efficient, very safe and very convenient.

    The bus offers recent movies (on usb-stick, so no interruptions) and wifi......yes....wifi.

  4. "Tents" are the places you see everywhere.......semi-permanent structures (looking like ........ well.....tents) with loads of 2nd hand cars and motorbikes.

    When I bought my Civic, a few weeks ago, I did have a Vios on offer. The Honda dealer came up with a tent-guy who offered THB 210,000 (7 yo, 380,000 km, 1.5 manual).

    I decided to sell the car private and ended up with THB 255,000.

  5. Bit off Topic.......

    Do you need a Myanmar Visa to fly in and fly back the same day, not leave the airport just activate the next 90 days ?

    I think.......or I'm pretty sure you need a Myanmar visa for that.

    You NEED a entry-stamp and exit-stamp from the Myanmar Immigration and since you pass Immigration you need a visa.

    Thai Immigration will check this, especially if you just fly forth and back in one day.

    It's the same as a border-run to Cambodia........you need a visa for Cambodia for that.

  6. I am doing it this way:

    Dear Mr. ,

    Thanks for your mail and attached of your data.Now we can start your visa application and we will send the approval letters to you when we receive from the Myanmar visa authorities. You can enter Yangon with that approval letters and also we will inform your Yangon incoming airline about your Myanmar visa so that the airline will let you board your flight to Yangon on your arrival day.

    One of our airport meet and greet staff will welcome you at Yangon Airport on your arrival day and you can pay US $ 75 per person to that staff who will give you a valid signed receipt.

    ENTERING VISA ON ARRIVAL SECTION ARRIVAL LOUNGE

    Once you climb down from the escalator into the arrival lounge you will see “ Visa On Arrival Section “ sign board firstly, check in there please and you will have your filled “ entry visa forms “ with your scan photos pasted by us. You sign on these and please give back to the counter. You don’t need to “ settle a dime “ as we will have already settled the entry visa fee to the counter. You then proceed to the “ arrival lounge “ where you will meet our staff holding a placard your name on it. This staff will clear you out attending to your Immigration & Customs formalities and you can pay US $ 75 per person to that staff who will give you a valid signed receipt. Then will transfer you to outside of the arrival lounge. Our service will end here.

    CANCELLATION FEE

    For no show the cancellation fee will be US$ 45 / person.

  7. " Metropolitan Police Commissioner Pol Lt Gen Kamronwit Thoopkrajang .................to rush to the house and hold a talk with Chalerm for about an hour."

    With enough money you can buy your way out of anything in Thailand. Combine wealth with political power, they'll even change the law for you.

    But by God, don't call Thailand a banana-republic otherwise dozens of pink-colored-glasses wearing folks fall over you.

  8. Two hours for a 20.000 Km service??????

    I hope they have rooms available when you have to do your 40.000 Km service and the oils from gearbox and drivetrain etc have to be changed.

    At the 100,000 km service you'll get a voucher for a room at Ambassador City! tongue.png

  9. Wonder if they have any Hondas for sale and delivery NOW. Hondas seem to be in short supply.

    They have always "take away Honda's" available.

    A few weeks ago (when inquired about a Civic), the delivery time would be 2 to 3 months.

    One week later, when I ordered the Civic, the delivery time was reduced to a whopping 2 weeks.

    "Take away" at that moment where" Freed, Accord and Brio.

  10. Wonder if they have any Hondas for sale and delivery NOW. Hondas seem to be in short supply.

    Not only Honda.........all cars except for the "running-out" models are short in supply, but I ordered my new Civic on 26-7 and was delivered 2 weeks later. Probably a cancelled order, but who cares.

    The "new" Honda dealer opposite Ambassador City replaces the showroom which is situated opposite Mini Siam in North Pattaya. According to the sales-people, the service department will stay operative, but sales will move 100% to Na-Jomtien.
