Meanwhile they expect you to get your bank passbook updated on the same day, with many smaller local bank branches not opening until 10am. Must have a line update the same day you apply. No matter that you could clear out the account 10 minutes later.
I don't know about marriage visas, but for a retirement visa half of the money must stay in the account for a period of at least three months.

Thailand has a lot border trade with people on the other side...and these aren't the richest of the society.
The job of the government is to come along with the neighbors....not warmongering and being terrorists. No matter if the neighbor has a government they don't like.
Lao is communist dictatorship, Cambodia is not really democratic in Malaysia is the Sharia. Biggest trading partner is China a communist dictatorship, another big partner is USA, the worst warmonger and state terrorist on the planet. Should Thailand be hostile to all of them? Or rather be neutral and do business?
Play Pontius Pilate do you mean? Or Sergeant Schultz? 'I know nothing'????

If a Bluetooth speaker bothers- then something is wrong with your own place. Hope this Thai will rotten in Prision.
Sound insulation? What planet are you on? This is Thailand. Most house owners have never heard of sound insulation. They have their windows and doors open for airflow and coolness. ????

Cardinal rule. Never get into an altercation with a Thai. Especially when alcohol is involved. The farang deserved to have his music source stuffed up where the sun don't shine. But chopped with a metacaw was a bit over the top.????

Being issued at land crossings.
Not issued at airports.
You will not need TM6 for extension
Be careful! I have one in my passport from three years ago. When extending my retirement visa at Jomtien recently I got taken to task for not making a copy of it, even though I had entered the code. And of course the date of entry in my passport was copied. Another one of the mysteries of the orient? Or an immigration official having a bad day? Which is understandable, considering the pressure they are under at Jomtien.

Maybe he is concerned that some of the children in this school could be children of those he employed in his soapy massage parlours. How do you spell hypocrisy?????

After nearly forty years living here and it involves my children and family, I think I have every right to discuss Thai politics. Discuss being the operative word.

by leahPhoto via KhaoSod
An American tourist was rescued from the sewers beneath Pattaya, eastern Thailand, yesterday after getting trapped in the murky, pungent pipe system for more than four hours.A security guard was bewildered when he heard a voice coming from beneath a covered drain at the entrance of Soi 8 Thep Prasit, Moo 11, Nong Prue subdistrict, Bang Lamung district. He followed the sound and called for help right away when he saw the foreign man, wearing a single pair of shorts, submerged in Pattaya’s subterranean wastewater.
The trapped tourist attracted a crowd by the time rescue workers from the Sawang Boriboon Foundation were called to the scene at 7.30pm. Rescue workers removed the iron sewer grate and successfully pulled the tourist out of the three-metre-deep hole. The American was clearly exhausted and asked for water from the rescue team.Tourist Police and officers from Mueang Pattaya Police Station travelled to the scene to find out what happened to the tourist, who introduced himself as 36 year old Jonathan from America.
Jonathan informed the police that he arrived in Thailand on Friday, May 12, and was travelling with his girlfriend, also American. The couple had been staying at a condo along the Thappraya Road about two kilometres from wear Jonathan was rescued.

Go to your local council. Here in Sattahip we used to pay a private contractor to suck out our septic tanks. Then found out that the council did it for a lot less. Make some enquiries.

I've started buying low end Au beef and making my own ground beef. It's pricey at 300thb for 500g, but after you brown the meat for tacos there's no juice or fat in the pan. I'll never buy minced beef again, The little processor I use cost like 400thb and is just right for a pound.
I use the small wheat tortillas at Makro, grill with butter. Great tacos.
What processor. Pictures please?

It will be interesting to see how hard the new government led by Pita goes after the outgoing government for their crimes. No better way to prevent future coups than to lock up the perpetrators of the last coup.
And how would they do that with the military and courts still holding sway?

Replacement headphone ear pads.
in Audio Visual AV
Posted · Edited by Gandtee
spelling
Way back someone on this forum gave me some good advice on what to use as earphone ear cushions. Hair, pigtail elasticated bands. They worked fine. I wish I had bought more. Now I'm told they are out of fashion and unobtainable? I don't want to go to the expense of 'proper ' pads. Any tips on alternatives?
