Yes i went through the process in January, it was very efficient, I turned up at a labour department service center in a Lotus Branch and was done in 5 mins with a printed Work permit card, they got rid of the old book system. edit: Card valid for 2 years

As long aa the debit card has your name on it and dont say something like "privileged member".... If card not in your name then used web card from the app.

Ok I did read on and your interest rate is illegal - move on

To be honest I stopped reading when I got to 200K, not worth it!

Its the latest installment of the great farang carousel game.. The more we keep them running round in circles, the busier we look and the less chance of getting sent to do some real work.

How am supposed to live on only $10M

Yeah I think it is OK, just last week I saw the brother of the young girl next door burying her elderly falang husband in the back garden of their new-build here in Korat.

Mounjaro is surprisingly well priced at Bangkok Hospital, actually cheaper than local pharmacies... I happened to mention this to my doctor and asked if Bangkok Hospital had suddenly grown a conscience and become ethical, he said it was cheaper because Pharmacies have to buy it from clinics and mark it up.

Can;t help you with teh Cellular connection but you can download an app called OSCAR, https://www.sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/ It will then read from the RESMED SD Card, it is not complicated to do, very easy.. You can then see very detailed reports, much better than on the cloud..

Want to re-open this thread, I can get 30 x 150mg Arnodafinil for 5100thb, it has to be ordered by local pharmacy and they wanted to see a doctor script first, which I have. Even BKH did not have it. But 5100THB is quite expensive anyone else using this? Have a source? The 5100thb I have ordered is brand Nuvigil.

You can thank the Visa Agents who facilitate fraudulent Retirement Extension applications for those who can't really afford to be here.

Sound serious, see a doctor get meds

It's just that certain banks are not interested in the additional tax reporting compliance measures for very little reward.

Its on and off for like 10 years, Once I was told waiting for restocking by MOPH (or similar agency) - the brand in Thailand is Dactive. I don't believe it has ever been fully stopped, just supply issues.

300 baht 🙂

Unconstitutional

I think the whole idea is a disaster, I was never really for the overt proliferation of the shops like we see in Bangkok and Pattaya with their NEON sign etc.. And I guess the Thais did not like it eaither. I am not against the idea of people using Cannabis recreational but would prefer it to be more covert.. Now they will need a doctor to sign off on the sale, which in all likleihood anyone can walk in and say they have a bit of back pain or trouble sleeping and the doctor with incentive to sell will sign-off on it without question. This will keep the supply going and the dope tourists coming.. but what about the doctors?? I'm pretty sure they are better off treating sick people but No, they will be lured by higher market rates working in dope shops.. Does Thailand have enough doctors to waste on this?

Yes absolutely they look down on you, we had a bit of a party last week, My wife is 36 and I am 78... People looked at me in disgust, completely ruined our 20th anniversary!

Oh Great, Doctors can make more money selling Cannabis than they can in a hospital

Two options... 1) She is colluding with the bar and wants to be alaays welcome back. 2) She sleeps with so many customers the loss if revenue for the bar is genuine!

Some if the questions can be difficult

Particularly Criminals, if you apply for a Visa in your home country, then at least they know with some certainty that you are not wanted..

If you truly are a NOMAD then you can afford to hang around for a while, you should be used to working from a hotel room.... It is clear what Thailand's strategy is here, particularly at neighbouring embassies which are the cheapest to get to, if you can't afford to fly home to apply for the VISA then they will do this to you, it has kind of been going on for years.

Pretty much anything LEO-GEO which I work with professionally, - I am considering adding maybe some DIY VHF/UHF Helical or Tonna type antennas if the Motor current remains low enough (having VHF/UHF will open quite a lot of doors) but am a bit worried about it looking a bit like a Spy Base at least with just a 1.9M it just looks like a farang with an appetite for Foreign TV channels. The terminal will be completely web-based access and is prototype, what for I don't think I really know right now 🙂 Needless to say a lot of the expense is absorbed by a company..

I am following with great intersest, I am currently setting up my rig, which is party professional-use and part hobby, And I hope to get it on the roof in about 2 weeks after some structural works. I am lining a 1.9M antenna with fine copper mesh to aid Ku Band. I have received (Customs was a nightmare) a SP02/HR Az/El motor to mount the antenna on. I have got a Chapparal Co-Rotor for Dual C and Ku Band use with electrical Skew control.. I knocked together an Arduino to control the Skew over Ethernet So for the internal equipment I have put together MD02 Motor Control with Ethernet Agilent 8594E 3 GHz spectrum analsyer - With GPIB to ETHERTNET converter Threadripper Pro 16 core Server, 512 GB RAM, RTX5090 GPU for AI/ML DVB-S2X (ACM/CCM) 6909 TBS PCI-E card Hack RF ONE - 20 MHz Software Defined Radio (Working on getting LimeSDR but not sure about customs) So a pretty solid set-up, wish I could go bigger than 1.9M but I think the neighbours would have something to say about it 🙂
