  1. "he increased the minimum sum required in the bank from 200,000 baht to 800,000 baht". That was bad but any westerner could go to the border every 90 days, and get a stamp without being forced to do a 90 day report. Can they do that now? We need rid of the soldiers at all costs.
  2. That is certainly the way it should be. If only they could find some way of keeping any soldiers well away from parliament.
  3. A cashless society in Thailand???? With big companies like Makro and Honda not accepting debit cards.
  4. It is not often I agree with you, but you have got this one right.
  5. Well why shouldn't you? This is a public forum, and commenting is what it is for, as long as it is understood that everyone is entitled to an opinion as long and it is within forum rules.
  6. I am also staying at home during Songcran apart from going to the shops, as all it will take is some farang to throw water over me and will be treated as self defence. No prizes for guessing how that will turn out.
  7. Would they have the brains and knowhow to do that?
  8. I never got into the White House, but did stand outside at the iron railings.
  9. Yes I have been in new New Orleans, took the night train there from Memephis, also seen the Statue of Liberty from the top of the Empire State Building.
  10. Thanks Charlie, that should be it.
  11. That's interesting Thanks.
  12. But is it not mostly in recent years, especially before the last coup that Thailand was doing very well with tourism? I do know that tourism was really going down in the two or three years before the pandemic, and it was the soldiers and their immigration issues that was mostly responsible for that.
  13. A few crumbs is a lot more than all the lies and deceit the unelected caretaker PM ever gave the ordinary Thai people.
  14. Unfortunately that is the case, I realise Thaksin will have had his drawbacks, and shooting drug dealers was not one of them as long as no innocent person was shot of course, but when I think of the way Thailand was when I first came to live here with Thaksin as PM and Thailand today, I know what I would prefer.
  15. That will be because the Thai military has always had more strength, with weapons and tanks than all the politicians, and the reason why the unelected caretaker PM will never get what he deserves, a very long jail term.
  16. Thanks everyone, I know exactly what I need now.
  17. Somebody already told me about this but I have lost the notes. I have full internet on my smartphone. How do I get it from my smartphone on to my laptop. Thanks.
  18. Take it to Fortune Town Bangkok. On the third floor is Nick at Pro Corner. He speaks good English. He will soon sort things for you.
  19. You would wonder why they would want to do that. More tourism means more jobs for the Thai people. They should want to encourage tourism and try and make up for what was lost during the pandemic.
  20. Yes, I got an email from someone I am meeting with about business. It has download all attachments as a zip file, and two little pink boxes with 21 on them, and 1.5 Kts. One has invite ics and the other untitled printed below. I have tried everything without success.
  21. Yes, I remember it, a great movie.
  22. On TinyZone there is the whole lot of one of the UK's favourite soap's Crossroads, every time you click on it, it just does not work. How disappointing.
  23. I'm watching The Virginian, Cheyenne and Bronco just now. Brings my childhood back.
  24. I was there back in the mid eighties, the cross wasn't there then, I certainly didn't notice it. Anyone know when the cross was put there?
