  1. "A significant portion of Thai women and many other Asian women do not butterfly, as it’s just not a part of their culture. These women remain monogamous to their men". I seem to remember a survey a few years ago saying that Thai women were the most adulterous women on the planet.
  2. I use Top-Up service with my AIS sim on my mobile phone. When I call a US landline or mobile number through the mytello Thailand dial-in number, does AIS also charge me for the number of minutes that I use on the mytello call?
  3. Has no one every wondered why the Thai news media focuses on crime and car accidents? Number one is to distract the public from the more important things like political unrest and corruption. Secondly, if they can keep the public in fear from robbers, murderers and drug addicts, they can justify such a huge police force and secure their positions so they can keep the corruption gravy train rolling down the tracks. Why do you think the police line up to have their photographs taken after they take these scoundrels into custody? They must continue to perpetuate the pubic perception that the much needed police are heroes and are here to protect the citizenry against all the dregs of society, so they are a much needed institution. It's all just camouflage! The protection of the citizenry is way down the list of priorities, and bribes and corruption are number 1.
  4. I just bought a new Honda City with a dealer installed webcam, and they attached it to the rearview mirror shaft with a specially designed plastic harness. Now there's no more falling off the windshield.
  5. The guy on the motorbike made the typical "Buddha turn" without looking to see if a vehicle was approaching. I see it every day, and it can be a death sentence.
  6. That's exactly what's happening, so we're already there. This lunacy has got to stop!
  7. You can do it here by Thai Post. Just download the form on the link, mail it in with the completed form and you will have all your documents back within the week. I've done it before and works great. https://consular.mfa.go.th/th/publicservice/บริการรับรองเอกสารทางไปรษณีย์?fbclid=IwAR1cYNqMyW-KvIoAGyi3Q1GHW8_YQYLcSBw-FURgXEcaGqH5GVZtuhPNyIc
  8. He wasn't in a hurry. It was all about "face". He is a superior Thai, and you are just a lowly dirty farang and have no business driving in his country! Whatever happened is your fault!!!
  9. Toolong, did you get an email back to say that your application had been approved, or did you have to log back into the site to get your answer?
  10. If I buy a one year sim off Lazada, can I still keep my current phone number and have it transferred to the new sim at an AIS shop?
  11. 2) difficult to get B2 visa for my spouse as she is retired without bank book or job, If you are legally married, this shouldn't be a problem. I was married for three years in 2013 and my wife was able to get her 10 year multiple entry with no hassles. As her husband, you are allowed to write a cover letter explaining the reason for your trip, so place that letter on the front of your wife's presentation booklet wherein she makes her important documents, like your marriage certificate, available for inspection. Once the embassy staff member read my letter of introduction, the interview was cut short and she was given the visa without any further questions.
  12. My wife and I went to see the Director of our local Amphur to execute our Wills and have their office maintain a sealed copy, but the Director advised me otherwise saying that I was best advised to prepare a traditional Will, execute it, have it witnessed by two persons and store it in safekeeping with someone who I trust. The following instructions may come in handy: Forms Of Wills under Thai Law.docx Thai legal knowledge about Wills.docx
  13. I can certainly relate. A few years after moving to Thailand in 2010, I was dreadfully depressed and having trouble adapting to this culture and its people, so I went to see a psychiatrist at one of the private hospitals here in Udon Thai. After I shared my story with him, he responded by saying " don't worry....be happy...just change your attitude"! That was certainly a waste of good money. Whatever you do, don't get talked into taking any benzodiazepines like Alprazolam (Xanax), Diazepam (Valium) or Lorazepam (Ativan). You can easily become addicted after only 10 days, and the withdrawal symptoms from trying to wean yourself from them are horrendous. It took me 6 months before I was anywhere near normal again.
  14. If one goes in search of happiness, that person will never be fulfilled. Happiness depends on external circumstances which are forever changing from day to day. Instead, we should strive to discover inner joy and peace which can only be found in a personal relationship with the Creator God of the universe. When we reject Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior, the wrath of God abides on us, and we should never expect that we can live a life that delivers any kind of happiness in a meaningful and consistent way.
