In order to LEGALLY drive customers you'd have to drive a tuk tuk with public transport plates (yellow). And in order to LEGALLY guide tourists you'd have to take a tour guide course and become a certified tour guide.

A better way is to apply it after shower and BEFORE you wipe your armpits dry. If you wet the stick directly it will dissolve faster and might break

A car ownership can only be transferred in the province where the car is registered. Tax payment can be done anywhere. To the OP, you have 2 options: 1. Have the current owner register the car in chunburi (and get new plates), after that's done can transfer the ownership to you. 2. You go with the seller to Bangkok and do the transfer there. You can then travel and live anywhere you want and keep the Bangkok plates. Whenever you want to sell the car in the future you'll have the same 2 options.

These are wild bees so I don't think any bee keeper will have anything to do with them. It is possible however to harvest the honey if you know how... Once you harvest the honey the bees will relocate

Is it really more fun in the Philippines?
LukKrueng replied to bob smith's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Oh, yeah, I remember the days just over 10 years ago when the girls only wanted your smile and a hug. I'm pretty sure that's all the filipinas want. Go check it out and let us know, will ya? -
Very strange. Up until about 20 years ago no one checked id or passport for domestic flights. I had a friend that always booked domestic tickets in Thailand for his friends and employees under his own name so he can accumulate the miles. They started checking documents after a bomb went off on a plane that Mr T was supposed to board (they later claimed it wasn't a bomb but Aircon gas mishap....). Back then Thai IDs didn't have any detail in English. Thai only. Another point is that airline tickets always show the name in English and never in Thai, whereas Thai birth certificates show the name only in Thai (don't know how it is today, but definitely that was the case 20 years ago). And a 3rd point - I have dual nationalities and there's a 1 letter difference in the family name between the 2 passports. I always book flights using the same spelling\passport details, but check in with either passport according to my destination. Never ever had any problem not asked any questions about it

I assume it's misspelt in English and not in Thai, right? Being Thai, the name written in Thai on the ID card is the most important, not the named in English. As for the bank account, so far I've never seen a bank book of a Thai person showing the name in English. Besides, I had to look 3 times at the correct spelling and the misspelling to realise it was the letter a replaced with an e (and I guess that's why you\she didn't notice it as soon as she got the id card, so I think no one will notice it if not told. As for future business, job applications and whatever - in Thailand most, if not all documents are in Thai, so I can't see any problems there. In order to deposit money to get account all one needs is her account number or her phone number or her id number for prompt pay.

Thaksin’s imminent return stirs hope, anxiety in Thailand

So you can add Mr T to the list just the same -
Thaksin’s imminent return stirs hope, anxiety in Thailand

Yes. He made it very easy to borrow money without any way of earning money to pay back. He basically enslaved them. And made money on the interest. -

Check what was the average household debt BEFORE and AFTER his tenure in government before claiming he made the lives of the majority better. -

And no one sees that as a problem? -
Do you know where the Tops supermarket at meechok is? Just drive past it (on your right) and about 20 meters past on the left there's a vehicle's parts shop. I got a bulb changed there

I don't understand the op nor all the replies to the topic. The op - if you're a us citizen, why pay an agent 93k for a tourist visa for your wife? Why not apply yourself? The actual cost for visa fee and getting all the required documents would have been a fraction of this amount. Another point is when COVID started and ask restrictions came about - why didn't you contact the agent and ask for a partial refund as the process couldn't proceed? Now, after 4 years you want to continue what was started back then? Doesn't make any sense IMO. As for all those who say the agent did a runner - with all the restrictions of travel during the COVID era I would assume he had no business going and probably either just closed the business and went on to do something else or maybe even went bankrupt like so many other business in those bad times. Accepecting the agent to refund any of the money 4 years after its just stupid. And suggesting the op to engage in a criminal activity? For less than 93k? Come on....

Anutin Pilots Plane to Deliver Heart Transplant Team

Wow. You got all this information from this picture? Amazing. As for commercial rating - it has nothing to do with size of airplane\type of engine. The difference between PPL and CPL is that with PPL you can't charge for the service and with CPL you can. -

You can very simply book hotels that charge upon arrival and can be cancelled without penalty. Same for airline tickets. -
Climate change: July set to be world's warmest month on record
LukKrueng replied to Social Media's topic in The Green Forum
I'm pretty sure I've read on other sources 120 years, not 120k years. Who has any records from 120k years ago? -
Climate change: July set to be world's warmest month on record
LukKrueng replied to Social Media's topic in The Green Forum
I can only speak for myself, but there are so many parameters that need to change if anyone REALLY wants to slow down the changes. The main factor is a population of 8 billion people and rising. The next factor is the consumption strategy of capitalism - buy as much as you can (and take loans if you can't afford it) so the economy can grow. Another stupid scheme was the selling of carbon rights which made some people very rich and contributed nothing to the reduction of co2. So all these articles and facts have no real effect on the situation -

Schengen Visa Rejection Rates
LukKrueng replied to GinBoy2's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
You're talking about intentions. You can apply at any Embassy you want, telling them you intend to stay there the longest. Once you're in Europe, nobody checks nor care through which Embassy you got your visa. For my last trip to Europe I planned flying and staying only in 1 country. However I realised it will be much easier and faster to apply at an embassy of another country, and that's what I've done. Upon arrival at my actual intended destination I was asked by the IO why have I applied through another country when I'm actually visiting his. That was the first time ever I was asked this question, even though I always do it the same way. I simply answered "changed my plans" and I was stamped in. -
The opposite, sir. I totally understood you, but you didn't understand my reply. I also have duel SIM phone, and also another phone just in case. The wi-fi calling aka VoIP is a service provided by the cellular company (AIS, dtak true or any overseas such company). The ability to use the service is provided by the phone you use. If you put a sim of a provider that does not support this service, your phone won't show the option of wi-fi calling. Now, as I use AIS I can only comment about their service, and it is available to use overseas. When I travel out of Thailand I take the spare phone with me, buy and install a local SIM of the country I'm at on that phone and use the local data to provide wi-fi for the phone with Thai SIMs (I have 2 Thai SIMs) and as you said, I can use my Thai numbers as if I'm in Thailand at no extra costs. However, there is a country I frequently visit and have a permanent post paid SIM of that country as I want to keep the number. On my last visit to that country I checked with the provider if they support wi-fi calling, and the answer was yes. I asked to have the service opened for my number and tested it while there - worked great. When I returned to Thailand I tried to use that phone over wi-fi and not only it didn't work, but the option on my phone wasn't showing. I put a Thai SIM on the phone and the option magically appeared again. So I called that overseas cell company's customer service and the final answer was that they block the service out of the country. I then contacted 2 other cell providers and both answered that they only provide this service IN country. I am still looking for a way to bypass this restriction but haven't found one yet. I have installed a VPN with servers in that said country but still didn't work. I contacted the VPN provider who told me that their servers do not support VoIP traffic. So if anyone has any suggestion how to solve this problem please tell.
