  1. I could think of a few 25 million baht houses that are available for sale. But foreigner can only own house, not the land, and no loan. Paying cash?
  2. I mean given they are asking for people to invest millions of dollars to get long term visas, maybe 1999 baht per month is not going to fly. How about 199,999 baht per month? Please don't give Thai government ideas you all might regret later.
  3. On thaiairways.com page, select UK - English as location/language and you'll see everything in GBP. If you can't find it, click this link: https://www.thaiairways.com/en_GB/index.page
  4. Has Tony just awaken from the dead? After years of relative silence, he's in the news every day now...
  5. AFAIK, the border is closed for foreigners, no day passes issued (according to someone who lives in Mae Sai).
  6. Yes, they have pet names also. The top one is called Phone and bottom one is PowerBank...
  7. Opposite Siriraj hospital, Diamond Pharmacy.
  8. I don't have FB. Used to have it until about 10 years back. Now I receive SMS nearly daily with some code to login. Had I not had a dual factor authentication, that person/s would have logged in and started scamming others in my name. I know of people selling all kind of stuff with stolen accounts, then disappearing, and sending police to homes of those whose accounts were hacked. Security questions and OTP are there for a reason.
  9. You could open taladrod.com and search... that's the second hand car sales site. Once you choose a car, it will show (near the bottom of the page) the price ranges of different variations and ages of that car model. If you can't read Thai, open the page with Google Chrome and right click into a blank space, then choose Translate to English (or click on translate icon in the website address field). Example for first car that was listed on New cars today... a Civic: See the price ranges at the bottom, medium price and price ranges (and offers in brackets below).
  10. Was in BigC yesterday next to condo as it's the closest. Not going there particularly often, but never got asked for any kind of ID. Cashiers were always very nice, but I never used any kind of membership, nor would I bother to apply for one. Used The1 card at Central and Tops - nobody asked for anything there either. Didn't use that card for at least 5 years. Maybe there was a discount or promotion coupon you received and they needed to register it against your ID?
  11. There was apparently a copycat in Nakorn Sri Thammarat... stopped on the way to school with 2 guns, a box of bullets. Anyone else seen the news? Admin - if this turns out fake story, please delete. It's being shared on social platforms.
  12. Sorry for repeating the same thing. When typing it, your post wasn't there yet.
  13. Apparently after fleeing the scene of killings, he went home and killed his wife and kid, before shooting himself dead.
  14. The <deleted> is <deleted> <deleted> because of <deleted> <deleted> is <deleted> <deleted> <deleted> <deleted> <deleted> !!
  15. Can I ask why masks bother you so much?
  16. Extension of stay is cancelled if you leave country without reentry permit. Don't really need to go to immigration unless you need an extension of a week to leave the country as you were "supposed to" cancel extension on the same day as your last day of work. I don't know anyone who had problems by leaving without reentry permit. WP is a little different, but will only bite you if you ever apply for a work permit in the future. When you do, they'll find in records old one wasn't cancelled. You'll be sent to police station, where minimum fine is 2000 baht, and you need to get their statement that you paid the fine, before employment department would entertain you again in issue of new work permit. To cancel work permit, download form from labour department (it's just a table with your name, work permit number, and day of cancellation). Go to labour department with 2 copies of it, along with copies of your WP booklet (or to BOI with just that 2 forms). They'll stamp both of them, keep one, return you the other, punch holes through the booklet and return it to you. All in all 5-10 minutes + waiting for queue.
