I'll never understand why people smoke.

The doctor said he could not tell what had been used to beat the victims, other than it was a blunt object. The time of death is not known because the bodies had been frozen before autopsy.

Absolutely brilliant. All they had to do was have a qualified person take the internal temperatures of the bodies before they were frozen. How incredibly stupid are these people. And what is wrong with keeping the bodies cool as opposed to freezing them and further damaging the bodies. They must have zero training in preserving and processing a crime scene.

Thailand does not have to answer for this. It is their country. When you arrive, you know what you are getting into. If you are not comfortable with it, don't come.

Yet another useless comment on Thai Visa.

The majority of comments are useless, they are either Thai bashing or Farang bashing and serve no purpose whatsoever, do you think your comments serve a purpose ?

It's an anonymous Internet Forum, any comments here have zero impact on any real life situations, the only impact is on the Blood Pressure of the keyboard warriors involved.

I would assume Its to help Police determine whether the person who is confessing to the crime is the one who committed the crime, and is not protecting or being paid by the real offender.

Really bad, only in amazing Thailand.

You haven't travelled much I take it ?

I bought a Fortuner on 6 January 2006, it was manufactured in 2005.

Then again that was in the days of the six month waiting list !!

It's not always Thais that commit Crimes in Thailand.

RIP...

Note to Tourists: Safety First... be aware, it's easy to be murdered here.

No it's not, or else you wouldn't be here along with Thousands of other people who CHOOSE to be in Thailand.

Yes it is. It's really easy to get killed, die, or be murdered in Thailand, and much easier than in most counties where foreigners who choose to live here come from.

If you really believe that, why are you still in Thailand ?

Why isn't this story in the main Thailand News forum ?

RIP...

The violence just keeps escalating along with the lip service. I would never let my daughter travel here with or without friends.

Yet you stay here ?

When I was a kid on Bikes and Scooters, I never wanted to wear a helmet either.

Bayboy,

You sure it's 2018 ?

Cos I have a pre paid card and have had it a long time, full size Sim, so I use my old 3Gs here, I have an old Japanese flip phone ( actually it's made by Samsung ), but I can put the Sim into my old 3Gs and I have music and podcasts when on the go, cant call International numbers though, its Factory Unlocked but in Japan, you still can't use all the services if it wasn't bought in Japan.

The 6 is on sale here on the 19th, Sim Free, but I am waiting till I go back to Thailand and Get factory unlocked, they don't sell Factory Unlocked in Japan, just Sim free, I am not chancing anything, besides, best to buy in Thailand if you spend 95% of your time there.

4.7 for me.

I tried to update mine to 5 years last year. Was told because I don't have a work permit,it was only 1 year. Did you guys who used the yellow book also have a work permit?

You need an 'O' Visa, extension of stay if you have no work permit, if you are on a 30 day stamp in from the Airport or a Tourist Visa, it's only for one Year.

I have a Bangkok Bank Credit Card, 100,000 Baht, Limit I had to have 200,000 in a fixed deposit account.

Can be used anywhere, airline tickets etc, choice of taking the payment straight out of my savings account, which I did, or can make monthly payments as per normal.

I reckon it's a great system, you can never over spend as any transaction comes straight out of your savings account, they can't lose cos as soon as you withdraw your fixed account money that covers the Credit Card, the Card is automatically cancelled.

It's just a phone chaps, why do Apple users come under attack from Android users and vice versa ?

It's just a phone.

I still use a 4s in Thailand, 4s does everything I want in a phone, and if you think I'm gonna spend 30,000 Baht on a 128GB iPhone 6 and pass on my trusty 32GB 4s to a deserving family member.......you'd be right, of course I am !

In Japan, I still use a 3gs !!!

..how about enforcing the law about 'instigating unrest and division'......

What, like closing down ThaiVisa new forum ?

Seems to be a lot of unrest and division here.

Butterfly Bar, was at 60/12 Siam Country Club but I haven't been to the Darkside in ages . . . .

A Blast from the Past, many years since I went there....

I'm undecided on whether to purchase the 4.7 or 5.5 screen.

Hold both in your hand before purchasing. 6+ is huge

The 4.7 seems to be the sweet spot, the + Version is enormous.

Yes same as you. I was told it is now the new rule.

I do my run on Friday, hopefully then it will get sorted.

Have a chat with the Belgium guy who sits by the toilet. He is well clued up.

Robert is a great guy, very helpful and knows everything about Immigration policy.

Look on the Seat belts, right at the bottom near the floor pan.

Yep, when I flew A380 from Bkk to Narita it was code shared with Air Canada, it was packed, every Business class seat was taken.

I reckon Nissan could make a great SUV out of the Navara, be a real challenger to Toyota and Isuzu.

Any news on one in the pipeline, not the XTrail ?

I bought a Fortuner in January 2006, top of the line 1,249,000.

I reckon its lost about 50%, not bad really, not that I would sell it anyway, I just don't see anything else that I'd rather have, and it's been a great motor, I'm waiting for the next Toyota SUV, or a Nissan SUV based on the Navara.

I purchased an iPad in Thailand and exchanged it in the Apple Store in Tokyo, no problem.

Phones are different apparently.
