I mean... I can aim at the target.... but being the lousy archer, it doesn't mean I'll hit it. Actually it's more likely I'll hit my face than the target. Maybe the same could be said for TAT...

I think Korea did that in the past, and Vietnam started closing down for foreigners recently as well. Malaysia has obviously done it pretty harsh, though still giving expats a year to get out... but with PM having resigned, it's also possible this gets reversed. I wonder when Thailand would come up with something similar to Malaysia's requirements... Their target of high-income individuals who can contribute to economy is the same. And Thais love to copy...

http://property.treasury.go.th/pvmwebsite/ Click on Condos, then select province and enter condo name to search. Unfortunately in Thai only. This is how it looked like for some other condo I was considering a while back:

Probably true for foreigners. Thais generally buy with bank loan and banks surely would not want to have lower prices registered at land department. If a foreigner buys from a Thai, and it is recent built, most likely part of the amount, if not most of it, will go to the bank that gave the loan to seller. As this is for condos, there is also an appraisal site, which tells the per m2 appraised value per floor of each building. Those taking loan from bank would only get it to set percentage of appraised value, not the actual purchase price. I would guess foreigners would not be paying stupid prices for condos and check their actual appraised value first?

Like what many said, only Astra Zeneca being listed, it makes you think that some information is not for sharing, namely the Sinovac and Sinopharm vaccinated individuals are somewhere but we're made to guess where. Is the reason why this wasn't mentioned the part where Government is hell bent on procuring Sinovac against evidence from other countries (namely Indonesia) that it no longer works? I'm not thrashing Sinovac here. It was effective against previous strains of virus, alas not for long. And it has probably prevented many infections in the past... but that was before Alpha and Delta strains. Sticking to the same now, when it no longer has much effect, at costs of billions of baht is just unreasonable. Sinovac ship has sailed.

Land department, most likely. When you make a transfer, price must be shown in the paperwork, and tax paid on it.

Or you could just order Taco Bell...

Actually it was unpleasant time at that time. Thai TV channels were showing live shootouts and I was watching them, side by side with BBC or CNN... That way about 5-7 seconds after hearing the noise of something hitting my walls, I could see on TV what hit me... It was somewhat surreal feeling... But one particular episode was with BBC reporting live.... I had Channel 7 I think on half of the screen and BBC on the other... the audio was of BBC... After a while I got confused. Because what the English voice was saying was description of exactly what the Thai TV was showing. Almost like if BBC journalist was just watching Thai TV and commenting what he saw pretending to be at the center of the happening, but in reality not even understanding what was going on and the context of it, he was just describing what Thai TV crew captured on camera. As someone mentioned Al Jazeera before... Yes, they did have by far the most unbiased reporting but I still think their journalist was nuts. He put himself in a ditch under expressway, camera up to record around him, while the 2 sides at different side of expressway were shooting at each other... or rather both shooting at him. And he did that live. Now that kind of reporting is showing the real thing, but darn it, has that man got some balls of steel to do what he did. That was somewhere on Vibhavadi Rangsit... hard to remember now, it's been a decade. But the images still remain in my memory...

You should not be promising things you have no influence on. As for whether vaccinations would be required for visas or even for extensions of stay... nobody knows. It's up to what government thinks it should do at the time it's deciding on it. It is my OPINION that beggars can't be choosers and that many countries that lived off tourism will sooner or later run out of cash and drop all restrictions, regardless of consequences. But that's just an opinion. Would he then want to come to country where a disease could kill him, that's a serious question he should be asking himself.

My parents have Mazda and I was installing the navigation SD card for them. The card was from Mazda, and already preconfigured. They were given a code to download one update per 6 months or maybe per year to that navigation system. Compared to Google maps it was quite inaccurate. It does show the speed limit on that small display above the steering wheel, and it beeps when you exceed speed limit, etc. which is good but it gets data from navigation and it doesn't match reality on the road. Eventually Android Auto app was installed into Android phone (note this will get discontinued in Android 12), where the much better version of navigation is displayed right on the screen of your Mazda. Before you spend time and money on SD card, give Android Auto a try. Might be much easier and actually better experience.
