  1. I've seen this referred to several times. Is this an official Thai directive, or general observation/estimate/(selective memory perhaps)? Urban legend? If it is an official figure, if they look at a receipt inside the package, that could include tax and shipping, perhaps service/handling charge. Is the 1500 THB figure supposed to be the total for the item alone?
  2. Interested in a specific dentist name rather than e.g. "The XYZ Company". Someone you know is excellent for this task, and (at least ideally) with very good bedside manner and very good English. Thank you.
  3. Was getting PAPOUTSANIS TRADITIONAL OLIVE OIL BAR SOAP (Olive Oil, Water, and one other substance I suppose to solidify it) shipped to me but too difficult here. Read labels on all soaps at 2 markets - every one has "Fragrance". "Fragrance" can have any ingredients and for some reason they don 't have to be listed. I also don't buy animal products, and almost every soap I looked at has Glycerin. Anybody found something sold in CM (or Thailand) without those ingredients?
  4. Less expensive than Ram or Bangkok Chiang Mai? If so - If a Dr. I want to see works Sriphat and also Ram or Bangkok CM, is there any reason not to make the appointment at Sriphat?
  5. I entered from the USA on a SETV. Within a week my 1st 60 days are up and I have to renew for the final 30. Would appreciate help for some questions: What line do I get in? What time do I have to be there by? Do I need passport size photos or anything else to provide other than my passport? Is there a fee for the renewal? Also, Bangkok Bank told me they would open an account if I get what is apparently a Certificate of Residency from Imm. I've been staying at a hotel so I probably will be denied but will give it a try. Can the person renewing my Visa also grant me this or do I need another line after I get renewed? I can see from the sample form the bank gave me that a passport photo is needed for this (or possibly 2). Thank you for any info.
