  1. MRT also mentioned
  2. Just considering, once you get Thai passport, doesn't your child also need US Visa on that passport to travel?
  3. Might be Muslim.. in the article it is mentioned he has 6 kids, 3 with each wives
  4. the Chula Pharmacy between Sala Daeng BTS and SamYan MRT on the west side of Th.Rama 4 is the best downtown
  5. I have no experience but yes why not you should be able to get a Tourist Visa in Manila. Remember I read in the past here that it is not the friendliest Visa Embassy but if you do not have history of Visa runs in the past and all documents ready (bank account, flight bookings..) should be easy to get in a couple of days. Question is, why getting Visa when as UK citizen you can enter Thailand for 30 days with no visa and get another 30 days extension for 1900 THB in Bangkok? Easier and cheaper.
  6. Guess many like me have read this comment with Aussie accent
  7. My wife's passport did expire before the 1 year of a new visa extension, so although her visa could be renewed in December until December the following year, it was renewed at the expiration date of the passport, until September the following year. Six or seven months before expiry date she did renew passport and first transfer the Visa onto the new passport, then September got one year extension to September following year.
  8. Just watch out, as Phuket police might still anytime ask for passport as per Thai law one should always carry. Get a copy in case and prepare to negotiate. Keep a low profile, avoid renting a motorbike and in case always wear helmet - as a foreigner will be likely stopped at roadblocks and passports will be asked.
  9. There is a skilled guy on Sukhumvit between Soi 4 and Soi 2 by the small Police hut.
  10. can't imagine the increase of already solid traffic weekdays and weekends between the two BTS stations. Couple of crazy traffic lights will need to be better programmed.
  11. Become far too expensive compared to Thailand. Couple of retired friends with family married with Indonesians are selling their properties in Bali and moving to Phuket.
  12. Sometimes they did ask.. and if so when only my wife (Asian) and kids (Asian looking) were in the taxi, the army guard waves them though, when I -farang- was also in the car.. 20THB
  13. They did miss the African ladies working along Soi 4 and living toward the end of the soi.
  14. Lima Coco and Ao Prao Resort are nice
  15. Agreed, it's a good set of Museums, with one ticket (cheap and the same for Thai and foreigners) one can visit three or four Museums. I did notice the issue with maintenance, the Science one is very interactive but some experiences are closed or not operative so I am happy of budget will allow technical improvements. Agree it is far and not many tourists will venture there - also many Thais do not even know it's existence - may be shuttle buses can better connect with the city while BTS can possibly connect the Technopolis Complex in future
  16. you need to leave by midnight of the day the WP is returned, but can extend 7 weeks directly while at Immigration to prepare your flight
  17. If she has a visa no questions will be asked. May be where she will stay and with whom but should not be worry with a valid Shenghen visa will go through
  18. Many Pinoys which I know in Thailand are here on tourist visa and do extensions plus the visa runs - no longer sustainable but in the meantime can see how things works with you and about possible marriage - if ED visa prove to be difficult to get.
  19. she can be his dependant or can get visa as the tutor of one of the kids if studying in Thailand - the school will need to prepare some paperwork. Suggest him to get in touch with an Agency example Ernst and Young they will take care about her. I think she will need to contact Thai embassy in ID to get non-O visa then transformed into resident visa. Agency will tell him.
  20. may be he did book with Aeroflot as it was cheaper.. lesson learnt, go Emirates next time
