  1. It is well known that the US stockpiled loads of vaccines and then realize they were being used and started donating them because they were coming up to the  expire date.  Canada did the same with AZ. Canada ordered 5 doses per residence.  Also if phifzer has to be stored at ultra low temp. Both vaccines can last up to six months frozen. Once thawed, Pfizer's can be kept in a refrigerator for five days and Moderna's for 30 days.

    Buriram IO charge 500 Baht if the person doing the reporting isn't the person named in the passport.

    Edit: There are 2 IO in Buriram.  I do not know which one takes the money or if they both do. You take your chance.

    I called chiayaphum immgration and they said don't worry or come in or sending anything they said they will just send me the new report to me by post.

    Doesn´t matter how old your are when you relocate to another country. Just see to that you are financially secure. Otherwise, just stay home.

    Sorry to hear of your problems.

     

    Our first Aircon was a Samsung's.  It also stopped working after 3 years. Good refrigerators though.

     

    We built a house.  

    I wanted to save electricity so I ordered Daikon inverter air-conditioning ers, 8 of them.

     

    They couldn't handle Thailands heat and humidity.  If it was over 28 Celsius it felt like it was blowing warm air?  

    I was upset.  Daikin s aren't cheap!

     

    I've been told inverters just can't handle the extreme heat and humidity.

     

    Luckily they replaced all of them with Mitsubishi Mr Slims.

     

    Its been 4 years now and I'm very pleased.  Usually run them at 22-24 celsius for a good nights sleep.

     

    Mitsubishi's are great products and easy to get cleaned, gassed up, or repaired anywhere in Thailand.  I see them installed in hotels throughout Thailand.

     

    There was a similar thread a few months back from "Sheryll" in Hua Hin about her 

    Daikon inverter air-cons air- blowing warm air.

     

    Good luck!

    I couldn't live here without Aircon.

    Inverters can stand the heat and humidity you were told by?  He must of been very educated with a masters and you believed him.

    It's a key feature of Thai Visa and one of the reason why I don't post very often. This forum is really looked down on by the younger generation of expats here and this post is a good summary of why - lots of hate filled, spiteful people. It's a shame as there are a lot of good people here with tons of experience and knowledge to share withj others. 

    Yes many stupid comments if this was a facebook group they would be block. HOWEVER when I meet older and younger xpats they are polite and I continue on my way. 90% are not at the mark.

    Ok, then I get it. So, many people have been coming to Thailand on too low pensions, and are now risking their possibility to remain in the country, due to that they put all eggs in one basket. Is that right? And then you are telling me that retired expats are working. Aouch!!! That goes totally against the kind of visa they stay on. This is definitely no good.

    I guess thats what happens when your British and you vote Brexist. Wait the great positives of the Brexiteers will come soon and we will all be rich.

     

    Working for a  foreign company has nothing to do with a retirement visa. 

    I would like to know how none married under 50s non teachers teaching online stay in Thailand

    Sure, sounds safe. I never said that you should wait. I am just 50 and have been living in TH over 10 years. Would never have done it without solid ground, though.

     

    My comprehension is nothing wrong with. I understand perfectly that you have given your wife money for land and house, which means you have bought nothing and own nothing.

    I am gay. And have several properties. And the only land I have is mine until I die. Food luck with you wife.
