We are simply in the wrong place on the planet to receive any (non-gov) satelite from the US....Contact Samart in Bkk and check to see what STAR has on offer....I've heard of another subscriber system out of Europe, but I don't know any details.

Get your friends to tape the game and burn a DVD for you...Your own slow-mo for those great football hits!

What documentation do I need to exit and re-enter with a multi entery visa-1 year? I am on my way to Bangkok 22 July and plan to travel to Burma, Laos, and Cambodia. I am living in Chiang Mai. Will be married in Sept. to a lovely Thai Lady.

I also live in Chiang Mai, and for the last few years, I've been getting my visa through an Agent in CM for 17,000 baht per year, plus 2,000 every 3 months for the stamps. If you have the money, and want an absolutely painless and legit one-year non-im visa, this is the best way to go. Two pictures, passport, money....that's it. Passport comes back in about two weeks with a visa grom one of the American Thai Consulates

I've travelled in and out of Thailand many times, and nary a second glance at my visa...Even though the actual visa is signed with an American name

If you're interested in details, contact me privately. I'll pass on the phone number of the agent

Thanks for responses lopburi3 and bangkokman.

Bangkokman, nationality is USA.

Was subjected to an interview in Singapore. And although it's of course standard for embassy/consulate staff to give off the curt, no-nonsense manner, my interviewer seemed unusually hostile and accusatory. Maybe just my bad luck that day.

You mentioned changing visa class. Let me ask you or anyone else if I may, what Thai visa possibilities are open to the self-employed foreigner in Thailand when the work performed is in no way connected to Thailand. The work originates from the USA and I am paid by a USA company; however, the work can be done anywhere. If one engages in such work for an indefinite amount of time in Thailand, what would one's status be according to Thai immigration law? Is this no different from owing a business in Thailand, for work is work?

Thanks again

As am American, the simplest, surest way to get a non-im multiple-entry visa good for one year, just fill out the basic application, send $50 and your passport to either the Denver or New Orleans consulate...Never a hassle in 3 years.

Don't trust any visa service.
