Can't help quantify the duty but often the it is included with shipping costs for stuff bought from Amazon. And they've been pretty good refunding the amount kept for duties if none's been charged.

You could take a look at Morningstar Thailand. Personally, I haven't but I do know Thailand has its own dedicated Morningstar site.

Or Quebec, Canada where they refuse to speak English even though most are able to and all signs are in French

. 

 

Same with parts of Louisiana.

thais don't manage to learn to say "where are you going?" properly in English. They always say "there you goooo?". And other the most elementary phrases.

 

And now you them to study Spanish?  ????

I think you need to work on your English comprehension being that I have not said that.

My Garmins over the years have been flawless. Maybe try pricing one of the last generation 800 series. Read up on DC Rainmaker to make sure it does exactly what you need it to do.

Here I was thinking it was a couple of young kids wearing helmets while riding a motorbike. I guess they still haven't been found.

Regardless, there is no comparison.

They had a Tomlin like ruler, perhaps?

If you pay them monthly through a credit card, it works seamlessly. That said, I find their customer service to be truly pathetic. I wonder what exactly happens if I need to use their services. It was, in fact, AA that suggested them after April rejected me due to several old injuries. Cigna was significantly more expensive.

Them longhorns are the real holy cows.

I think the problem with India is that it considers the landing as a matter of urgency because it thinks it is in a race with China, whereas China isn't interested in any space race with anyone. India has to figure out how China had managed to land their rovers successfully on both their first and second attempts whereas others have all failed in their first attempts.

That's a good point. I hadn't considered that at all; it isn't merely a scientific endeavor for them. Similar to the USSR and the US back in the day, then.

Nothing much here at all. Just little gusts of wind and drizzle. Not enough to stop a cricket match.

 

The Mekong is so low I could walk across to Laos.

Wow! Our stretch of the Mekong has been reasonably high for weeks now. I assume you must be well upstream of us.

Facebook comes up with a bunch of cuddles. The same translated via Google, while it still might not make sense, will have no cuddles.

Whilst we're at it, natives of Surin don't speak Khmer, they speak a dalect called Khmen wich is used in a couple of provinces of Cambodia, close to Surin. Quite different from Khmer. I was speaking to someone from Surin only last night and we discussed this very subject. I gave her a couple of phrases in Khmer, only one of which she understood.

Thais call it Khmen simply because in Thai, the R at the end of the word converts to N, in this case. It is a dialect of Khmer that is spoken in Surin as the other poster pointed out.

Just FYI, flow from China is most important in the dry season when it contributes 24% of the volume. Average volume of flow from China over the year is 16%. The problem this year is the failure of rains as well as the trial run of the Xayaburi dam in Laos more than anything else.

The X350D is interesting. The entire drivetrain is Mercedes with that nice AWD and it is quite quick. That said, I just plain dislike solid rear axles. No matter how you guild it, the ride and handling will always be sub par.

Rice uses loads of water, they can grow some special produce instead and save water....grow another product which needs less water and problem is solved.

Can't go much else on rice paddies. Prone to flooding, horrible depleted soil.

I've always heard that good steady rain/drizzle is much better than downpours. Is that true?

I'm not a farmer so I don't really know. That said, rice paddies require flooding so I guess they'd want pretty heavy rain initially.

In my neck of the woods, it is more like 100% since we have no rain... at all! 

 

I mean zero rainfall since the beginning of July, and it doesn't look like it's gonna change soon. 

 

It is gonna be a double disaster for farmers. 

 

First, they gonna lose a great deal of their rice crop, then they gonna find themselves with no water because the underground water tables are not replenished. 

 

Right now, almost nobody seems to realize the consequences of this failed rain season, but going into the last quarter, many will feel the pain... 

Dang! We got three days of pretty much continuous heavy rain that flooded about half paddies earlier this month and nothing since.

You're right, at this rate, gonna be a lot of locals in trouble by the end of the year.

I've done that with no issues in the past, last about three months ago. So, unless something's changed, it should work. This is with DTAC.

Just being pedantic here but Pacific would be the opposite of angry. Had me a tad confused trying to figure out which company you were referring to.
