. Publicly flog them then give them 20 years minimum in jail not separated from the rest of the inmates but with them. Let's see how many actually leave the jail walking.

Here we go --- the predictable trash posts. Very high class -- how about some constructive suggestions.

He was pushed.

On what do you base this or was it just an excuse to get your name in print?

What would happen to a black bike rider in the US trying to escape?

And the relevance of this?

What would happen to a black bike rider in the UK trying to escape?

Overstay BS.

Who cares.

Some real nasty crime out there, BIB,

go sort it out, its right under your nose

Quite right, there is so much real crime under the BIB's noses BUT this was immigration that picked him up not RTP

I have a problem with the same True vision remote.My volume button and my mute button have both stopped working.Any of you guys got any ideas about that ?

thanx in advance.

Go to the nearest true vision shop, they will replace it for free.

Yes, I regularly/frequently have to replace one of mine for the same reason. I do it at Fortune Town in Bangkok ---- the staff seem quite used to it and don't ask for documentation. They must have hundreds in that back room.

I always thought it a little rude bringing your own drinks to a bar.

Indeed! Would you bring your own food into a restaurant? (Not you Malcolm --- it was a rhetorical question).

The stall holders are the under the control of the local mafia

And your proof of this? Do let us all see ----- or are you all mouth and keyboard?

You need a bullet proof vest to drink in walking street , struth

Wouldn't that be illegal?

Also it looks like, the s7 selling in Thailand is a dual-sim version, can anyone confirm this ?

I have the J7 ( much cheaper version of S7) and it is dual SIM. I think that most mobiles on sale in Thailand have dual SIM versions.

PS, as an edit, I am really happy with the J7; I can't imagine what more the S7 can have that would make it about 15K Baht more expensive. Anyone know?

Much faster processor, but better quality screen, much higher build quality, more hardware built in for a start.

So yes, it's far superior to the J7 (which isn't a cheaper version of the S7 on any planet).

Thanks Jass. I sit corrected.

If it's for data, pick the appropriate package and go to the phone company shop (AIS/DTAC/True, etc.).

Not some mickey mouse outfit flogging crap phones and stuff.

The OP said he went to Telewiz.

the rest are still there.

Not really. Many smaller shops and kiosks have gone.

They are trying to gentrify it.

Goodbye Pantip.

What does this mean?

Only two days water throwing or two days alcohol selling on the street?

What happens at nine o/clock at the end of day two?

And what about Silom?

Interesting to see the tanks rolling down the street at 21:00 to control it all.

PS I'll be safely locked into my room to watch it all on television.

I can maybe understand the confirmation of address (smells like a Certificate of Residence....which you can get from either Immigration or your embassy/consulate).....but how does either Immigration or your embassy/consulate confirm the validity of a passport? I've never even seen a form which would do that. Goofy.

Edit: To confirm the validity of the passport, maybe take a video of an Immigration official or embassy/consulate official holding your passport and saying "Hmmm....looks okay to me!"

When you get a new passport the embassy issues a letter addressed to immigrations confirming that they issued the new passport. It can't be that difficult to do, assuming the embassy is willing to be helpful. Passport number, date of issue, date of expiry. Not rocket science, as they say. The same would/could apply to immigrations.

The U.K. embassy will issue a certified copy of passport for about 1800 Baht. It takes about half a day.

@ Hjernestimulanz

A man walked into a BAR - an IRON BAR

OUCH

ok old man

Thanks for the unsolicited, ad hominum attack

This "old man" bench presses 300 pounds

And I would tip 20 - 50 baht for one drink only - to respect your query

All the Best

50 bath is alot of % if you only pay 80 baht, dont you think?

I'd have to check on the price of a bath in Home Pro first.

Hang Him!

Wanted to be the first cretin did you? Congratulations.

Most of these hospitals are grossly expensive as all of them love to overcharge.

Really?

Please do provide examples. Do you have access to 'all' and 'most' hospitals accounting systems?

. It's a few 20 somethings having harmless fun.

Harmless? Strange sense of humour you have.

That's why I have the contacts on my SIM.

I believe that sim cards have a limit of the number of contacts it can store. And it won't store additional information like photos etc. Much better to double up and store your contacts on your computer or in a cloud (whatever that means).

The problem is it's a scam between the duty free stores and the gate check staff that confiscate the goods. The shops conveniently forget to tell you it should be delivered to the gate, and the gate check staff merrily take it off you.

Is this true or a product of your imagination?

If true you should report it to the authorities.

Only way to implement this is having officers going undercover as customers and impose hefty fines on Pattaya cabbies who break the rules (i.e all of them) until they get the message. Walking up in uniform will have no or short term only effect.

They could check to see how much has accumulated on the meter.

..is liquor sold at these gatherings...do they have a liquor license...do they adhere to the alcohol sale laws..

As I understood it ------- it is illegal to SELL alcohol during prohibited hours, NOT to buy or consume it.

I've just bought a new True smartphone from True, 5k Baht-( but that's probably irrelevant).

I'm using same old 3G AIS SIM card and number but cannot log onto my LINE account without them deleting all of my previous messages.

Why do they do this?------- is there any way to archive them?

This comes under the category of.............

WHO CARES!!

Then why did you bother opening the thread and reading it?

You must have better things to do with your time and keyboard.

My cats live on it and there's nothing wrong with them.
