  1. A "drunk" BRIT??? Impossible ...
  2. That's the best advice in this topic. I have all my "Music" stored on an SD-Card and simply plug the card into a card reader to transfer songs when I want. I transferred all the songs to my new phone 2 years ago by inserting the SD-Card into a Card reader and plugging the card reader to my phone using "Total Commander".
  3. “I didn’t know the person I attacked. I was drunk, and now that I’m sober, I deeply regret my actions. I promise I won’t behave like this again.” Amphol extended apologies to both the victim and the online community for his misconduct. Case dismissed. Next case ....
  4. Or, still better, GET INFORMATION FIRST AT YOUR LOCAL DLT OFFICE (NOT ASEANNOW).
  5. WRONG!!!!! I will live in Spain, as a SPANISH NATIONAL, but my health insurance is in Belgium (accessible in Spain through the S1-Card). Try again ......
  6. First: I don't give a RATS A.. about the laws in the UK or what your opinion is on this matter. I am a Belgian ciizen and the Belgian/EU laws apply to me, not the UK laws. Second, if you want to know why Thailand requested this information, go ask the Thai government. Third, this has been discussed in the TAX thread, with proofs, and do not need to be discussed again in the thread. Translation of the picture: Belfius Banking & Insurance Belfius Customer and Account Services Tel.: +32 (0)2 222 12 02 [email protected] MR ------- Address ΝΑKHORN RATCHASIMA Our reference: .........-CRS ....... Brussels, 23 May 2024 Topic: Automatic information exchange in the context of CRS SIr/Madam, Below you will find an overview of the data relating to Mr (name), which will be the subject of information exchange to THAILAND for the year 2023. This exchange takes place via the FPS Finance and takes place in the context of the Common Reporting Standard ('CRS'). Belfius Bank provides this information in accordance with the Act regulating the communication of information regarding financial accounts of 16/12/2015 implementing the European Directive 2014/107/EU of 09/12/2014. The data exchanged is as follows: OVERVIEW OF THE PERSONAL DATA EXCHANGED BY (name)
  7. Required documents to transfer a car ownership in Thailand Now that you’re familiar with the two main types of car ownership transfer, here’s what you will need to successfully transfer a car ownership, both as a local and as a foreigner in Thailand: The vehicle, which must be taken to the DLT office for an inspection. The car registration book, also known as the blue book in Thailand. Required forms: Ownership transfer form signed by both the seller and buyer. Power of attorney form for any party not present at the DLT Office. Vehicle sale contracts, receipts and invoices. Signed copies of personal documents from both the seller and buyer. For Thais: ID card and a copy of the front and back on one page. House registration book (Tabien Baan) Additional documents (if applicable): Name change documents, divorce papers, death certificates, will, etc. For foreigners: Original passport, along with copies of the info page and current visa stamp. One of the following: Certificate or letter of residence issued by Thai immigration. A TM-30 and a visa with a minimum of 30 days remaining are required for this letter. House title (yellow book) with your name. The original is needed on the day of transfer. Work permit, only if it lists your home address in addition to your work address. Note that if you have a digital work permit, ensure you submit a printed copy that has been stamped and certified by the Department of Labour.
  8. I sold my car in Nakhon Ratchasima recently and they insist on a Residence Certificate. Requirements are different depending on where you live. Better check first with the local DLT office instead asking the regular "Barstool Wisdom Keyboard Warriors".
  9. I had always been stashing up money at the bank with my children in mind if I would die. They would inherit a good sum of money to start their life. Something I never did have. Until a few years ago, when I was warned that I might have to leave Thailand to get proper health care. RE-thinking my "wealth" and my "inheritance" gave me a complete different view on this. When the Reaper would come for me the TAXMAN (Belgium) would get the biggest chunk, 65%, out of my savings. My children who would get the other 35%, would to pay taxes on this again the next year as they would have to declare it in their income. Besides that, I have 3 children, and like most elder people, NONE of them are worried about me. Just a "Happy Birthday" card and a "Happy New Year" card to prove they did not forgot me. Better to spend the savings on things I aways wanted to do, but were to expensive and not really needed. A cruise around the world like I see many times for 10,000 USD? Living in 2024 is not the same as living in 1960.
  10. I agree that most Thai doctors are limited to proscribing another round of Anti-Biotocs and ruining your natural health. But the doctor at the Military Hospital was a very good doctor and he even cancelled some medicines I was taking because they were doing more harm (Kidneys) than benefit. It was this doctor who warned me that my GFR (Kidney filtrering) was going very fast downhill and I should prepare to get Kidney Dialysis. I informed about Kidney Dialysis with different doctors, also in my home country and, besides the changes in my lifestyle, this would have a big impact on my savings. I waited more than 1 year, but my last GFR test showed that it was time for me to say "Goodbye" to Thailand.
  11. Weither you "can see" or not, it was a FACT and I proved it in the thread about taxes with a copy of the letter which was sent to me by my bank disclosing my accounts and even my Credit Cards. I was very lucky that my bank gave me this warning. A fellow countryman who I spoke about this was brushing it off by saying: "You dod chose the wrong bank". That was until he contacted his bank in Belgium and was told that they did the same, but did not send a warning to him as this was completely legal. Many things are going on behind your back without anybody warning you about that.
  12. A joke to Buddhist society? I think you don't have a clue about Buddhisn. Wishing bad luck upon an other human being would load you with bad Kharma. Buddhists don't wish any bad luck upon the perpetrators. Kharma will take care of that. That's why so many people refuse to file charges upon somebody who did harm them.

  14. The 3 dots after the last option are only available on the phone version. Anyhow, I got the answer to my question from the Google maps already: It is not possible to change the presets.
  15. I am sorry for the guy his ordeal, but when you drive anything on 2 wheels in Thailand you take a big risk to be involved in an accident. On a side note, at the school of my daughter, ALL students and teachers were covered by a health insurance of the school (employer). Why did the school didn't provide the same to him? An Personal Accident Insurance is very affordable and would have him covered for minimum 1 million baht in this case. My last payment to my PA Insurance (70 years old) was 6,500 Baht for 1 year. Not having a basic PA insurance and relay on donations is not the best way to handle such accidents.
