Confuscious

Here an update photo of the Russian man coming out of the police office.

The Russian man could not understand that the Ladyboys were talking like a man and walking like a woman ... He reported to the Police: Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy But when she squeezed me tight, she nearly broke my spineOh, my LolaLo-Lo-Lo-Lo-LolaWell, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand Why she walks like a woman and talks like a manOh, my Lola

I have a lot of "dead" batteries, which I collected over the years. Not knowing where to deposit them safely, the collection grow now to a box size. Is there any place in Thailand where I can deposit the batteries? TIA

I agree on the second part of your post. But I strongly disagree in the first part. Immigration, anno 2022, has still no clue what happens with your Visa or whatever you have been doing. This year in my Visa extension, the officer noted that all my extensions were "Non-Imm" or "Retirement" and she wanted to see which type of Visa was in my passport when I first entered Thailand. Needless to say that I could not comply with that requirement as I need to handle my old passport over to the Embassy each time I get a new passport. Immigration had no possibility to go trough all my previous Visa's or re-entry permits. Luckely, I could get a copt of my first Visa trough the Thai Embassy in my country and that was enough proof for immigration. Besides, Immigration where I live still uses an illegal copy of Windows. Every time I go there, on right bottom of the screen a message is flashing: "Please update your windows version".

In 2018, I returned to my home country for an urgent (heavy) surgery. I had already a reentry permit in my passport, so, no need to go to immgration or ask one at the airport. Just do the whole process and get in the airplane. After 3 months, I decided to return to Thailand. But I was very weak and could barely walk 10 meters. So, I asked "wheelchair help" from the airport. This was granted and I was transported to the airplane (in my country) in an electric buggy. The buggy passed almost all the checkpoints, barely stopping. Landing at Suvarnbhumi, a lady holding a bord with my name, was waiting for me with a wheelchair. From the wheelchair, we stepped over to anothe buggy and off we went. Passing all the checkpoints, barely stopping. At the passport control, I pointed out to the lady that I had a reentry permit. The lady gave my passport to the immigration officer and a few seconds later we were driving to the luggage collect point. While waiting for my loggage, I noted that the reentry permit was mot stamped and I had a stamp with the date and "Suvarnabhumi" airport. No "Visa on arrival" or whatever. Next year I went for my Visa extension, and my Visa was still valid. Maybe, it was because I was escorted by the airport officials, but I could have done the same process without reentry permit. So, my question still remains : "What is the purpose (value) of a reentry permit" when you have a long stay visa?

I am aware of what you say, but if you have a valid visa, would it not be easier to leave the kingdom and re-enter without requiring an re-entry permit every time? I don't see the benefit this requirement has for Thailand (except lots of paperwork).

What's the point of getting a re-entry permit and all the hassles the re-entry permit brings with it? As far as I understand the latest entries in this forum, TM6 are not issued anymore and I was answered by immigration that it is not required anymore to report when re-entering the country unless you change your residence. Is it not easier to skip the re-entry permit also?

Love this .... Interpol anywhere?

Last year, April 2021, I received a new passport and updated the passport at information in several places (Visa transfert at Immigration, Bank account, etc.). But I forgot to updated the passport information on my Drivers Licenses. Today, at a police checkpoint, the police officer told me that I needed to update my DL. Can I go to the DL department and ask for an update of my existing DL's? Do I need to bring again all the documents for a DL or is my existing DL enough? TIA

Everywhere in the world, crossing a road is a Russian roulette game. This Swedish man shot the bullet and died. Next life better luck.

Murdered 1 goat and 3 cats? DEATH PENALTY Put the snake on the BBQ!!!

Sad, but nothing new. I remember the story of the Karen girl who went to the police and the police brought her back to the people who poored hot water over her. And the Rohingya people locked up on an island somewhere in the south controlled by the army. This is Thailand. If you seek real help, don't count on the police or the military.

Is that the same hotel where the Kyzghikistan woman chosed to jump from the highest floor?

Death sentence is a little bot harsh for this crime. I would drop her with her hands and feet tied, into a river. If she drowns, she was not the murderer of the children. If she manage to swim to the shore, she is a witch and shall be burnt to dead.

In order to fine somebody, he/she needs to be caught first. And when caught, the police will need to write a ticket. So, the Thai people (if caught) will need to do the double of push-ups and the foreigners will have to pay the increased fines.

It has been proved in several countries before that increasing the fines is NO DETERRENT for not obeing to the rules. Only a change of attitude towards these rules makes people accept them and obey (more). This whole charade about increased fines fall into deaf ears when the gross of the population deant's even have a Driver License or gives more to superstitious beliefs than to actual traffic rules.

You want to try it? I wear a Pacemaker which gives only pulses at 5v and 0.001 Amps and I can feel it when my Pacemaker wakes up.

Looks like some posters here are "ignorant" about Electricity. It's not the "Voltage" that kills a human being (or many living beings) but the "CURRENT". Every SAFETY-CUTTER reacts on the amount of CURRENT which can kill a human. In wet surfaces, a 30mA cut off the current when current is leaking. In other surfaces, a 300mA cut off the current when current is leaking. You can kill a human with 12 Volt and a current of 300 mAmp!!!!!

Is that a "Birth Control" prescription?

I did read a recent thread in ASEANNOW about "foreigners should not involve in the politics of this beautiful country" and attacking (with words) a German who was complaining of this sleeping beauty ..... And here I read noting else as foreigners complaining about politics in this beautiful country .... Must be a parralell ASEANNOW version ... Must be

After you .....

Strange........ A while ago, with Tugsuban and the PAD anti-government demonstrations a lot of foreigners were demonstrating and participating in the violence of the PAD, but nobody was warning that they were only guests in the beautiful Thailand and shouldn't get involved in politics.

Nonstop flight are very expensive. Found very cheap flights with 1 stop over, but need to wait for information from Belgium about the date.

I will need to travel back to Belgium for a medical intervention and will return to Thailand. The whole traveling time will be about a week time. I have an Visa type "O" and a valid "Reentry Permit". I would like to know what documents and others I need to carry to comply with Immigration and flight (Thailand and Belgium). TIA
