There is no evidence at all to support this contention and plenty of evidence that shows otherwise.

Sure there is. The Thai government has offered my wife ( a government worker) to get her vaccine free being offered now. However, they have informed her that within 6 months she will need a booster vaccine also. Given this detail makes it clear to see that the Thai gov knows it's vaccine is not effective and is already making plans to have their people revaccinated at a later date.

The thing is, their not trying to hire me under the table though. Like I asked how I was going to be paid,they said salary, by check once a month with option for public health.

None of this means anything to the comment made. Getting insurance and paid salary by check means nothing pertaining to getting your work permit. Without a degree you can not get a temporary teachers license which means the work permit office will not issue you a work permit. Simple 1 + 1 =3 haha. Your only choice it to risk working illegally or to quit. No working permit will be given to you. As for the speaker position. This would not apply as your contract says teacher and hours in class per week. The school knows this which is why they have not applied. The nightmare to get your permit is incorrect when dealing with schools that do this yearly. Your problem is simply you don't have a degree.

There may be some side effects, but they aren’t fatal”

He forgot to add that sometimes death is preferable to the permeant damage that can be done with things that are not fatal. 

Forgive me to understand this correctly. You will buy a piece of a bar? 

If this is case I would say beware. My friend did this. 10% ownership for a % of the profits. In the end he got ripped off. Seems if the contract states the name of the bar.  Then the owner can make any excuse to claim the need to close. Even (which is the case of my friend) the rental agreement being cancelled. Then the owner can simply change the name of the bar and reopen under the new bake and new rental agreement. Thus, causing you to lose your investment all and legally have no grounds to make a claim for fraud or for any breach of the contract. 

Just an FYI to look out for in your search. This is not saying it would happen to you. But I would avoid a few small bars in LK METRO.  Not to mention any names.

Is he attempting to say they werent in uniform,  that they didnt announce who they were?  No way... does he not know admitting your crime here helps you.  In the end this will just be another entertaining story from Thailand for the world to read and measure. 

His unusual wealth will make everything ok haha

Many scammers is not all you find now. More than usual are sex workers and women who are begging for help money But if wanting to meet they disappear. Most common replies are needing money to pay rent and out of work. Even chatted some foreigners with this scam. Problem is as long as their are men willing to believe everything read in chats or messages and stupid enough to send money. Their will be women or men losing as women to  try it. As for the 13 year old. Surely this is uncommon and the perv who met that kid needed to be arrested. Sickos like that would have preyed on kids locally not online just as easily. So can not blame the app for it and instead commend the police for learning about it. 90% of women I have chatted previously have been on the app to get money. Not seeking dates or love and not wanting to meet for real.

This will set the complaining whiners off.

 

The complaining whiners that live in Thailand where they have been safer and far less likely to die than in their own countries, quite a few of which had death rates not double, not triple, but a hundred times plus times worse.

 

Can they accept the Thais have done a job 100 times better than them?

Nah. It doesn't even register. 

 

This British B117 variant is a nasty variant. It has caused many times more deaths in Thailand than than the other variants. It is a big killer.

 

But fair to say they are doing a vastly superior job handling the B117 variant with a total of less than 700 dead over a year and a half compared to just one day in the UK where 1800 died. One day.

 

WHO recognises the outstanding job, I recognise the outstanding job, the only ones that can not are the miserable serial complainers who complain about everything Thai, day after day, but interestingly choose to live in this beautiful country.

 

Ok, now back to the harping.

 

 

Have you even been outside? Is not Thailand gov that has made infection less.. Is living like a hermit in a cage that is being done by most thais and foreigners. Everytime the gov has done something it's made cases increase. And who can believe the infection rate remains constant within a few hundred unless this is just based on percentage tested within the population. Surely you have seen every country in the world have increases whej clusters are found. For all we know, there are 100s of thousand infected already. How to know this. Even in their prison system it took a few to learn there were thousand infected. Then their mismanagement even in notifying pattaya their vaccines were never sent. And now in the news. I am reading Thailand already has received 6 million doses yet where are they? Surely not being administered to the public yet. I am not saying Thailand has not done a good job in dealing with this virus. But surely it is not the gov who has been responsible for this happening. The thai people are more afraid of getting infected and are taking their own actions to stay safe. They don't even trust the gov from what I am told. Seems maybe you are wanting to promote the gov without seeking or knowing anything about this situation. Give credit where credit is due. The thai people should be given this. Not the Thai government for their handling the crises that they created!

 Thailand is aiming to administer one shot of a coronavirus vaccine to 70% of its population by September

Haha.. it is another late April's fool's joke? Surely if they cant even send 20,000 doses to Pattaya on time as promised. They could never meet this deadline

so called an engineer to come round. After 15 minutes of testing, he said it was to do with my HDMI port/ internal computer board and could not be repaired

Unless it's the motherboard damaged. A HDMI port can be replaced in your laptop . Think your engineer doesn't know what he is doing very good. If motherboard is damaged then time to replace your laptop with a new one. The cost will be about the same either way. But really think you should consider second opinion at a good shop about the HDMI port. I have had mine changed before. Also it's entirely possible its the HDMI wiring from oc to tv. This also happened to me after plugging it in a few times. Wire get bent in the connection.

You only need a signed copy of your wife's house book and ID card.

They might also want a copy of your marriage certificate.

If I remember last time I asked for this residency. They also wanted the owner of the house whose name is in the blue book to be present. This was a problem as I remember due to the age of my father in law. So they permitted my wife to act in his behalf. They do require though a form filled out by the owner and copy of bluebook as well as copy of the owners ID. 

I thought this was May already. Why now they sending these April's fool's jokes to the news. Haha

If she's slept with 20 guys in 3 days, then I'm the Pope.

This would depend on if it was true and the prices she offered if it was true. Perhaps she could find 20 guys if she was only asking 200 baht each. That is to say. If she was really a prostitute and really had slept with 20 men in 3 days. Haha. I don't think Thai ken or foreigners are so desperate to have this woman even for short time. 

I wouldn't out any trust in what this man says. Even the local thais do not believe him

Jeez. Took that police department all that effort and time to bust a few women only. Could have easily opened badoo or thaifriendly or tinder and found hundreds of them selling themselves for VIP service in your own home. They could have set up a home and had all these women coming to them and arresting them. I know one in 3 that I have chatted are seeking customers in these apps. Quite alot due to covid and businesses closing.

Who is Thailand defending against with military weapons  other than its own people ?

Defending?

There is an app by the irs... Can find it in Google play store called IRS2GO. My return was completed and the app shows refund due in 21 days

Sin sod is a family matter. If the family feels they can milk you for money. Any amount can be said... If the family wants the woman to be loved and provided for.. they will return the sin sod to you on wedding day.  My Thai family put all the sin sod under our wedding bed.. we showed 400,000 baht and 4 baht of gold. All returned to us. If the Thai family is asked my for sin sod alot and wants to keep it. Then perhaps you can expect you or new wife will be always sending them lots of money. Best to marry into a family that views you as a husband instead of an atm machine. Good luck

Time the MWA got it's act together and sorted out this mess.

Paying 40 baht or more for a few liters is costly. Thais for the most part would try using tap

8 Kg of smack!...I don't believe this story or the daft drug concoction...makes no sense

I guess it doesn't matter what you believe. He confessed and they have some drugs confiscated. Haha.  He must be guilty 

It's not drivers always to blame. Yesterday I had a pedestrian walk between cars and into my bike making me crash and breaking their leg. I'm told I am to blame for this also.
