  1. Went today for 90 reporting.

    Got in pressed the button 90days to get a ticket.

    As it was printed my number up on the display - no time to sit down - went straight to desk 4.

    Handed over my passport to the nice lady - she even managed a little smile in response to my

    sawadee krap

    She said: sit down please - I just said hello to a friend of mine who happend to be there as well.

    Not even 1 minute later the immigration offficer handed the passport back to me - done -

    In and out in less than 2 minutes

    Think this is a new record - keep it up !!!

  2. I bought one 1.5 years ago in Ubon.

    The car had its problems and the dealer here is not worth having. Petrol consumption is 2x as much as my old bmw330 I had in Switzerland.

    According to Proton - this is normal....

    So I had it converted to use LPG. now of course all new problems are due to the LPG- conversion.

    Do not touch Proton in Thailand.

    Specially not in Ubon

  3. Finished my house 1 year ago.

    my points to get a cool house:

    1 big overhanging roof (=no sun on the walls)

    2 light gray concret tiles

    3 alu foil as uv block under the tiles

    4 stay cool 150mm glasswool on the top of the ceiling

    5 airvents either side of the roof

    6 cuts in the smartwood panels covering the ceiling of the overhanging roof (dont forget to cover those with platic nets-keeps out creapys)

    7 lift the house 1.5m above ground

    8 double wall q-con blocks 7.5+5.0 gap+7.5=20cm

    9 good quality pvc windows (i used Hoffen)

    10 keep the veranda and open aeras on the north side

    11 small or no windows on the west

    12 high rooms - 3m-3.20m

    It worked wonders - use aircon only in the bedroom when very hot. And then switch it off after 3 hours or so

    if interested i'll send you some pictures
