  1. Take a cruise on Halong Bay, spend a night or two on a boat. You will not regret it. Go on a trekking trip on Sapa HIghland. Old Hanoi is charming. Head to 49 Bat Dan for beef noodle. In the evening take a street side table at 50 Bat Dan where they serve freshly brewed beer by the glass. Check out their menu, i recommend snails cooked with banana and tofu. https://goo.gl/maps/gjzbvoCH5JMkftNXA I have only been to Hanoi and Saigon. There are tours to Cu chi tunnels from Saigon if you are interested.
  2. Why make it so confusing? The first 2 categories should be combined and simplified. Applicants are considered based on their income. One of the following conditions must be met. 1. Passive income over $80,000 USD. Passive income: pension, social security benefit, dividend, rent, capital gain, investment return.) or 2. Passive income over $40000 plus $250,000 investment or property in Thailand.or 3. Passive income less then $40000 , combined income over $80,000 plus asset over 1M and $500,000 investment or property in Thailand. The insurance clause has no exemption. Does it make sense? Retirees with 800k savings or 65k monthly income do not need to show health insurance for non-o extension but those who show $1M $5M or $10 M have to. I know it’s 1 year vs 10 years but they are basically the same: visas to stay in Thailand.
  3. I did non-0 ext based on retirement last week at Jomtein. Quick and easy in and out. No appointment required. I park 800k in a fixed deposit account, only a bank letter and bank book copy, no 12 month statement required. Something new: the IO made a copy of my TM30 reporting receipt. I used a black ink pen to fill in TM 7 to see if it was acceptable, it was. A copy of yellow house book was accepted as prove of address without any additional documents such as lease contract or property deed ( chanute ).
  4. You'll probably need more thn a few million USD.
  5. Pattaya Thailand. right where I am.
  6. I did online 90 days report on MOnday at 11.30am was approved at 3:50pm. It only took 4 hours. Last few times I got the approval the next day. JOmtein IO. Yes, online.
  7. I am a slow driver and yet I almost ran off the road the first time I was driving S on this road. I was wondering how many accidents will happen here. Last year a young Chinese tourist on a big bike died here. Since then speed limit and zig-zag signs were painted on the road, but still inadequate road signs to warn the drivers of the curve.
  8. easy. just buy one of those they use at the smootie hawker stands.

  11. Power Buy has a repair shop in Bangkok. I took my Onkyo to Pattaya Klang Power BUy from where they shipped it to BKK for repair. You model has Neo 6 and Prologic IIx options which are excellent to play movie files with AAC audio so it is worth repairing. Most new models have THX cinema, not as good playing AAC files. They are a few youtube videos posted buy repair shops for example: 0801912795, Pranchinburi
