Well, you weren't really fooled, were you? Obviously you suspected, and you asked to be sure.

About 5 years ago I built a 150sm house, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, big living room, inside modern kitchen, good materials (could have been better, but still good) all for about 1.25 million thb. The contractor gave. me a quote for labor only, I got the materials myself - he pointed to several places where I could get what needed, I did the running around to choose what I want, compare prices and negotiate with suppliers. That is in the North, in a small village. I'm happy with the house and workmanship.

Not really. At 15 if both parties consent then it's ok, but both (and also their parents\guardians) have the right to change their mind after the act, and then it's a case of having sex with an underage person. AFAIK there's no such thing as statutory take in Thailand. There's however a difference between having sex with a child under 13, over 13 but under 15, and over 15 and under 18. So the op can actually make a complaint to the police and the girl will be in hot water not only for the sex, but also for removing an underage person from his home - similar to human trafficking...

I find it VERY hard to believe anyone was ever really mistaken a ladyboy for a real woman. My guess is that that's what they say out of embarrassment if caught....

What do u mean you are not licensed to drive in Thailand? Do you have a valid DL from your home country? From experience the insurance companies don't care much about it. Also, I'm sure if your GF says SHE drove the car no one will inform the insurer it wasn't so as all want to get both car and bike fixed ASAP

Nothing new in this article. As for clear regulations what could be clearer than what we have now? Not allowed for: Anyone under 20 Pregnant and nursing women Smoking in public As for youth using it - they did when it wasn't legal and will continue to do so in the future

As @scubascuba3 wrote - use your bank's app to scan the barcode on the bill. Very easy, very simple

Thai law. It's written in the book.

Same here, but I got SMS stating the amount and due date. Looked into the app and didn't like it. Asking for too many unrelated permissions. Tried to call them but like you - got tired of waiting. Tried to find then on "line" as per their suggestion on the recording but couldn't find them so far. Really upsetting.

A PR must be registered in a blue House book just like a Thai citizen, not in a yellow book. The link id card is actually meant for labor workers from neighbouring countries, but any non resident can get one if registered in a yellow book (as non residents cannot be registered in a blue book).a PR can get the pink id card based on the blue book, but it is useless as a PR is also issued with a red book which is actually an id book and by law must carry it with him anywhere he goes (although most don't...)

Not exectly. Every house\condo is issued with a blue book whether a Thai person is living there or no one lives there. One can own many houses\condo units, but can only be registered in one book at a time. If the OP rents a condo (or a house) he can ask the owner to be registered in the rented place blue book. OP - a PR has to be registered at the local police in the same sub district as the house he's registered in. It doesn't really matter if you actually live in that place - many Thai people live in a one province while registered in another

I did it a couple of years ago. While I was at the visa service place (VHS?) I booked a hotel through one of the hotel booking sites, made sure that hotel didn't take any advance payment and can cancel up to 24 hours before check in. Showed them the confirmation on my computer screen and that was accepted. I cancelled the booking just few days before the flight. No problems at all.

Without going into the referred article, the law in Thailand forbid the sale\use of cannabis by anyone under 20 - same as alcohol and cigarettes. Still, many underage kids drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes, (and also other illegal drugs). Are you suggesting that re-leasting cannabis as a drug will stop those youngsters from using it? If so - you have to outlaw alcohol and smokes as well.

When the finance company holds your book you pay them, they pay the tax, and then they send you a copy of the relevant page showing the paid tax. You better check your socket to make sure it's not fake (if you only showed a copy of the book...)

You can't do it with a copy of the green book. Has to be the original as the details of the tax payment is registered in the book.

As soon as I found out there's a clinic in my area I went there and got got the oil. I later visited a clinic in another province and got some oil there as well. But I never got any card. I never bought any buds. Got from my friend and later started growing my own, with a permit to grow 50 plants.

You're talking about a person that willfully gave up his citizenship, not same as citizenship being revoked by the government. Until about 30+years Thailand did not allow duel citizenship so if a Thai person got another citizenship he would have to give up his Thai citizenship

I'm pretty sure it is not possible to revoke citizenship that is received through birth right. Those who were not born to a Thai person but got naturalized can lose the citizenship of they commit server crimes

You must have really big ears...

I never had one, but I'm pretty sure airport staff will know something is wrong when they go through the passport

So many people have a misunderstanding about the foreign quota.... The units are NOT marked as local\foreign units, and no number of units are kept for only Thai or only non Thai buyers. It is so simple - no more than 49% of the units (or area) can be owned by foreigners. A foreigner can but a unit from a Thai person as long as at the time of purchase less than 49% of the building is registered to Thais. Whenever a foreigner buys a unit, be it from a Thai or a foreigner, the juristic person must issue a letter to the land department saying that at that point in time less than 49% of the building is owned by non Thais. So if a Thai person buys a unit from another Thai - nothing changed. If a Thai person buys a unit from a foreigner - the share of Thai owners increases and that of non Thais decreases. That's it.

By setting the big stamp on the passport?

Blacklisting has nothing to do with no fly list. The fact that someone is not allowed to enter Thailand doesn't ban then from flying.

Interesting. Since there are illegal casinos that make a lot of money, let's make them legal. And since legal cannabis makes a lot of money (but probably for the wrong people as the current government see it) - let's make it illegal....

So you married someone's wife??
