Been here 12 years take a lot if taxis. Always get price before travel if not using meter. If price too high or will not commit I simply smile close door and go to next. Usually the price immediately comes down. Have never been charged extra for large items. Then again I tip well. Taxis in Canada will also charge extra if they are carrying a lot for you.

GF did not update her house book
kingstonkid replied to kingstonkid's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
Problem is her house book has a different address or should there be a separate book just for the house. This <deleted> has me so confused. Also because she is gf do I need a rental agreement as I am trying to do my annual extension at the same time. -

So the best thing for me then is to take my GF with me when I go so that she can sort all this out and they can get the copies and everything they need -

Announcement: Missing your AseanNow newsletter?

Server maintenance by skilled techs does not take this long and should not be required every 6months. Also if it was planned a smart business would have advised before the natives started asking -
The last thing that anyone wants is him back here. That would make him more prominent as it stands the only place that yyhear about him is in the news. If he came back and actually fought the charges it would be a duster last seen with the pt in the early 2000. The fool blew it. They should have just let it happen. Now pt has a rally cry and will use it to show how scared the government is. There are 2 scenarios I1 the court acts quickly an pt opens the new party for the election Or They drag their heels the election happens pt wins and they try to remove them. Option 2 will have blood on the streets and the military will not be able to step in to stop it.

Why is that such a secret> Most businesses if they are going to be down let the people using the system no that it will be down and for how long. All it would have taken is to put it in the newsletter before closing.

Do we know what the issue is this time?

Your not alone. It seems that every 6 months their servers go down and screw up. And of course, there is no notice on the board.

Bhumjaithai Party ready to join any party to form the next government
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The problem is that a lot of the old people remember the good old days when the Thaksin family looked after them. While I agree with you about MF I just think that it is not known enough. If this was done in a sort of Canadian method were people running had to actually get out and meet the people in their constituency, it might be different. The problem is that most Thais vote for the party, not the person. It is sort of a GOP/DEM situation with more minor parties around. Many Thais will vote for the PT simply because they are promising high wages and a better life. The other problem is that the military can slow down MF and other parties they really can not touch PT because it is so firmly entrenched. This is going to be a battle between Prawit and the Thaksin clan for prime minister. If Prayut can get enough votes and still has the backing of all his senatorial butt-kissers he will also be a factor for Prime Minister, which eventually will mean PM Anutin. . -
Female Thai Student Attacked On San Francisco Bus
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The cesspool by the bay. This was a lovely city now due for many reasons it is now a place to steer away from. Much like the rest of the west coast of the U.S. My sympathies to her and hope she was not hurt too badly. Nothing can be done to the person that did it as there is no longer any laws and the city is a Sanctuary so there is no deportation or ramifications if you commit a crime. The U.S. unfortunatley is turning into Rome at the time that Caesar fell. It is not a TRUMP problem nor is it a Biden problem. It is a big money issue that pays all the politicians and the legal corruption (yes I know oxymoron but could not find a way to describe it) -
Bhumjaithai Party ready to join any party to form the next government
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
With so many ego ( I have money but want power) parties, there is little chance of anyone getting a majority. However, the worst thing that a party could now do is say they will work with BJT or Prayut after the next election. Really this is going to be a Pheu Thai victory not because they are the best party, but they are the best of what there is. That means that Thaksin will rule from outside the country again. wash rinse dry repeat. -

An unsung hero in the tragic end of HTMS Sukhothai
kingstonkid replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I agree with what you are saying but a three things have happened that make me query how trained they were. First is the Nurse diving back into the water. Well trained would not be doing that he would be triaging and looking after those that had been rescued and recovered. The other is the sailor that is standing on the ship and calls his father, who is not a sailor, to ask what he should do. Then the last thing is the fact that there were not enough life jackets on the ship and or people did not know where or how to wear them. While yes I am sure there was training it seems that there was or is a lack of either training or practice. In the Cdn Military, we are drilled and drilled practice and practice for these things. Working on the ship the drills were continuous. In the Airforce working in a hospital again, the crash drills were on a monthly basis. In all caes, it was not having to ask but knowing exactly what you had to do r what your job was in these circumstances it became second nature. -

I respect the thought and the man although I find that it may show a lack of training.
