  1. Which vet did you go to on Samui? There are several. Maybe try the one opposite Chaweng Post Office. You might get different advice, or they might know somewhere.
  2. Can you use the SCB Easy Net online banking for now? They aren't shutting it down until the 14th. What with banks going to app only banking and the government pushing digital baht, it looks like the public's control of their own money will soon be taken away.
  3. German cockroach and American cockroach are the two species most commonly found in Thailand. The German variety is the most likely to invade your condo, and the larger American type is the one you'll see scurrying out of a drain and across the street.
  4. Maybe ask the Indian tailors if they know anyI Indian barbers in your area.
  5. Not necessarily. My Bitkub app stopped working the other day after updating. Had to wait a couple of days for another update to fix it.
  6. Yes, but more likely to happen here. It's why I always tend to carry some cash. Wherever I am.
  7. I'm not sure you will find many of Asia's elite high net worth individuals here on AN. Good luck. Do you have a version that caters to old codgers?
  8. You might be better putting poison down for them rather than just spraying them on sight. Non toxic version: Buy some borax powder, mix with sugar and honey in hot water (20% borax). Leave for a few days around the house in bottle tops where you find the bugs. Works great for ants as well. You can order Borax powder from Chemipan. You might find more info. in follopwing link even if you say not roaches.: https://aseannow.com/topic/919095-best-way-to-get-rid-of-cockroaches/
  9. Type of Cockroach? Maybe German Cockroach? You can buy killer. Looks like a disc about 50mm in diameter. Used to sell in Lotus. But if bad infestation, you might be better getting a professional exterminator in such as Rentokil
  10. I received an email from Bitkub the other day. It was about learning more about the possible future introduction of CBDC. (Central Bank Digital Coin) or Digital Baht. i can't find the full article in English, but here is a couple of paragraphs: Dear Valued Customer, Bitkub Exchange presents you to get to know digital currency called CBDC, also known as Central Bank Digital Currency, which refers to a digital currency issued by a central bank. In Thailand, the Bank of Thailand is currently developing the "Digital Baht". CBDC, or Central Bank Digital Currency, is built on blockchain technology in many countries. It aims to increase transparency, and verifiability, and enable convenient and fast transactions. CBDC can be used as a medium of payment for goods and services, as it possesses a fixed value and can be legally used to settle debts. Thailand is one of the first countries to start studying and developing CBDCs under the name known as "Digital Baht" and started trials with sample groups and 3 major banks in the country, namely Bank of Ayudhya, Siam Commercial Bank, and 2C2P (Thailand) Co., Ltd. started from the end of 2022 until the middle of 2023. How are CBDCs different from cryptocurrencies? Will they affect the crypto market? Find out more in this article.
  11. Something to consider; Even if you succeed in paying the money into her account, if she doesn't know where it came from, she might refuse to touch it. moogradod's suggestion of putting it in an envelope sounds a better idea.
  12. I also see Dr Niyom for my check ups.
  13. One is the Crime Suppression Division. But it looked like they were aiming to take on more responsibility.
  14. Does this indicate plans for a 7-11 on the Chinese Space station?
  15. Public complaints, social media uproar, impacting the livelihoods of Thai citizens in prominent business areas, tarnishing the nation's reputation? Aren't they over egging it a little? They caught sixteen people who were probably selling the same stuff as the Thai businesses. Sure, crack down on illegal practices and grab the illegals, but what about the hookers and drug dealers that accost everyone along that strip of road? More than sixteen for sure between soi 19 and Nana BTS
  16. Has to look better than that fluorescent pink polo shirt.
  17. Sounds like a case of "Sorry. I've spent all the money. What are you going to do about it?"
  18. Nah. Mormon missionary. They learn Thai so they can spread the word.
  19. Seems like he never learns. There was the outcry about him crushing coins with the monarch's face on them, and wasn't he the one that took the p*** out of Thais when they didn't understand what he was saying? Got to keep those viewing figures up.
