Pattaya garden trumpets arrival of twin baby elephants
Peterphuket replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
This is very strange, yesterday I saw this message in a newspaper in the Netherlands: Ayutthaya - The keepers of the Ayutthaya Elephant Palace & Royal Kraal elephant park in Thailand were ecstatic as one of their elephants had given birth to twins. The joy soon turned to panic as the mother elephant suddenly started attacking one of her babies. An employee intervened, but was then injured herself. Due to the fact that twins are rarely born to elephants, I wonder if they are the same elephant. But then it was also worth mentioning that the elephant was initially aggressive. -

Traffic police crack down on dangerous tourist habits on Koh Larn

'stressing the necessity of verifying renters’ driving licences and enforcing helmet use' Again, only for the tourists, b.t.w. how about this to the locals? Or do we turn our heads, as usual, the other way. -

30,000 Baht Lost Due to Incomplete ATM Deposit in Bangkok
Peterphuket replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
It is the same with withdrawing money from an atm machine, in Europe, before you take the money out of the machine, you have to take out your credit card first, here in LOS it is exactly the other way around, resulting in forgetting to take out the credit card. People have been complaining about this for years but they don't change it. Why not, is the big question. -
That happens regularly when you order something with destination Thailand. If you are unlucky, which has happened to me more than once now, it arrives in Thailand with a different tracking number where the delivery driver delivers it to the wrong address, so you both lose your money and don't get what you ordered. These days to avoid this, I check in Thailand first, whether it is available there.

Teen fatally shot by grandfather after constant disruptive gatherings
Peterphuket replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
It reminds me that when I was a teenager, and had my room upstairs. When there was too much noise in my father's opinion, he switched off the power downstairs so that the whole house was without power, it did help. This as an alternative, if someone put a bullet through their head. -
The Surge of Islamist Violence: Why the West Remains Silent
Peterphuket replied to Social Media's topic in World News
It is already far too late, people should have started doing this 30 years ago....you might wonder why I myself have been in Thailand for more than 25 years. Then I was doing business with Turks myself, irritating people to do business with there, and then came the Moroccans, that was much worse, they were intimidating you with a gun in their pocket. -
If no more fingerprints, it is possible to give someone else with a little corresponding face your passport, I am thinking of a brother or sister, for example. Spectacle wearers also have several options, at immigration, I have to take off my glasses, in contrast, there is no such need at automatic verification.

Totally agree, but then you have to have those credits/assets. -
Let me tell you in short my experience, it starts more than 25 years ago, yes I met a hooker from Thailand in Europe, and stays a few years with her In the longer term in Thailand, I felt cheated, and after several times on/off, definitely drew a line under it, yes with sadness. There after again met a hooker in Phuket whom I now live with for more than 15 years, to the great satisfaction of both sides. So it can go right, it can go wrong. But I should mention the cultural differences remain and are sometimes difficult.

Non O cancellation
Peterphuket replied to jphasia's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That does sound a bit contradictory, after all, I too have a retirement extension based on NON-O for many years, with this visa, no additional health insurance is required. That is required if any other type of visa. So in my opinion, the rules that apply to NON-O are still applied.
