Tourists Detained After Vaping Mid-Air on Nok Air Flight
kingstonkid replied to Georgealbert's topic in Phuket News
In a restaurant, BTS MRT or bus, you can get up and get off. It is challenging to do that on a plane. Would you feel the same if you had an allergy or were on the Vancouver to BKK flight and had to smell that crap the whole trip? It has very little to do with 9/11 but has a lot to do with self-respecting and respecting others around you. -

Fined and blacklisted by that airline -
What embassy are you doing your passport at. I ask because some of them will keep your passport, so you should book into accommodations and plan not to do much travel or any activity that requires a passport to be shown. If you are using a CDN passport, and I imagine all the others are about the same, there will be a step in your old passport that tells immigration that it is part of a new passport. That being said, unless you want to take a quick trip to immigration offices in BKK to get the change done in your passport, then I would strongly suggest that you do your exit through DM or Swampy so that you can be assured that someone the\at knows is there to help you.

Lazada, Why so much stuff "Out of Stock"
kingstonkid replied to Beachcomber's topic in General Topics
Most of the people selling on Lazada tick tok Shoppee are individuals who purchase a quantity of an item and then sell it. Therefore, at times, they may run out of stock and have to order or purchase more. It is part of teh issue and the reason why there are so many different prices. Joe sells unique golf balls and seems to be selling a lot Fred sees that they are a hot item and decides to sell them also but instead of buying th large volume that Joe did he just buys from Joe and sells them at a few baht more. -

Not a chance he is going to get time as they already determined the amount and style carried was not personal. -
Strange and annoying things here in land of smiles
kingstonkid replied to villageidiotY2K's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I have the opposite. It is when they don't check to make sure it works They don't ask if I need help because they fear they must speak English. As far as the bow on the bonnet, all the bonnets I have ever seen have a bow wither on top or where they are tied under the chin. -

Bangkok Traffic Innovations Cut City Congestion by 25% in Two Years
kingstonkid replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
Ontario came up with a better traffic control system although now it's back to where it was. I durance companies almost doubled car Insurance if you drive into Toronto and parking was way over expensive. Looking at NYC which just did the congestion tax I am not sure it will work. Sending a bill that can be ignored doesn't make sense. -

Fears of Chinese New Year Tourist Drop Amid Human Trafficking Alarm
kingstonkid replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
This is TAT trying to downplay the economy that could start to affect Thailand. Bottom line is Chinese are not doing as well financially. Many Chinese companies are probably also a little worried about what is going to hapen on 21 Jan -
That would probably do what he needs unless he wants to watch them on his Notebook. as to recovery of HD try ATL recovery at Asoke Took my HD into them they wre not able to recover anything but were quick and expalined.

Follow up to I screwed up LOL
kingstonkid replied to kingstonkid's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Thanks for the info I don't mean to offend anyone here, but I do miss Joe and some of the others who used to give sage advice about everything based on experience. -
Follow up to I screwed up LOL
kingstonkid replied to kingstonkid's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Hey that is what she told me LOL What do I need if at the same address -
Wow it was interesting First, I have to thank the Cdn Embassy Consular staff. They were awesome. I handed them my passport, and they said they would renew it and put it on fast track. Also, they said that when I came in to get my new PP they would domy letter that morning even though I did not have an appointment. Got my passport on 30 December ( they were closed on Boxing Day and Fridays), I went in and got my passport, and everything was done. I talked to GF, but she could not get any time off until 08 Jan, and even that was only for the morning. I went in on the 6th and got my passport switched. No problem For the past 9-10 years, I have lived at the same address. In the past, I went in and gave them my paperwork minus the TM30, but I had my GF with me, and they did not need any proof of residence. Wouldn't you know it, this year, they needed proof of residency, so I advised the Captian at immigration that I would have to get the info from GF and be back. I went back this morning and was ready for everything except that the girl would not talk to me. She told my GF, who speaks English, what she wanted, but she is not great. It turns out that I needed to do the tm30 because even though I lived in the same place because my GF now owned the house, I needed to change it. I got that done and made the copies again with them, talking to GF, who advised that they needed to explain it to me. Then they announce that I am overstaying 9 hours, LOL. I need to pay an overstay and a fine of 500 baht. LOL I finally got everything done and was out of there TOTAL TIME 1HOUR 20 MINUTES including 90-day report. Evidently, from now on, I have to do a tm 28 for residence. AGAIN, ANYONE GOING TO PATHUM THANI, if you have trouble, talk to the Captain. He is sharp, speaks great English, and will take the time to explain. Also, thanks to everyone who helped and gave advice. It was much appreciated.

I am confused Could be old age, but where are the tops daily I googled it, and none showed up on Walking Street As to the fight first i don't stay out that late. Second, never harass a Thai lady especially if you have been drinking There are many reasons to upset people but again I wonder with the location maybe people can explain are there not Tourist police in that part of the street.

New Regulation Bans E-cigarettes, Hookahs for Students
kingstonkid replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
First teacher to do something will be charged with a crime by the students, If students are caught vaping, then the school should have the legal right to remove the E-cig from the student. If I follow the law then any student that is caught smoking Mary Jane or yaba can not have it confiscated from them -
