same same but different ?

there is this funny movie, remind me please of the name if you recognise this phrase by a young man co-starring as a naughty wannabe poet:
A man is always on the hunt
For the salty taste ....
where he gets interrupted by the main female character:
"not that again"

even without a calculator I am pretty sure the difference between 6 % and 6.8 % on such small sample is statistically insignificant.

One must understand the purpose of an Embassy.

It is not to take care of the ordinary joe on most important matter.  Only you can get help to order a new passport, add pages to your passport  or just register you infant or get a paper notarized... with kick and screaming they are obliged to perform these duties. That is it all.

 

Their  true function is to cater  for the US business community and people in the US government travelling overseas.... So these are the people who will get the vaccines or special treatment.. and not you.

 

Look at it from their point of view: the ordinary joe lives in Thailand and spend his  SS money in  Thailand, enjoying the good life . .  Even if you work at a job in Thailand you are only paying Thai taxes and not US taxes. Mr. Joe,  by living in Thailand, you have zero contribution to the US economy.. why do you except to be equal to Mr. Microsoft  or any body working for the state department

 

Sorry that is the true fact.. 

clearly underlines the difference between Consulate and Embassy

While we're here, does anybody know if one can buy the tiny camping cylinders one can screw on, like this?

I got a mini version of a green gas container, what is referred  to as a “camping burner”, from CM. 

don’t know the shop, somewhere SanSai area I guess.

burner screws straight into the bottle. 

ball bearing like pressure on/off so no pressure regulator to spoil your flaming fun ????

What sort of "expert" writes this stuff?

the Trappist monks in 13+ locations, or the monks in Weltenburg (since 1050)  might be turning, or just shake their heads.

the Common social beverage was beer, amongst others so as to not get sick from the water in the early age towns.

I was mainly using PP to buy stuff on eBay which I rarely use now as I can get most things via Lazada or Aliexpress. If I need to buy something which I used to buy with PP, I use UK Visa debit/credit card to buy it.

In Kasikorn internet banking one can set up electronic Visa card, what is separate from the plastic card in your wallet. 
Usually I only put a small credit limit as  needed, and transfer the money that I intend to spend that day with these cards, so, even if someone would have access to that card information, the transaction would be turned down.

I wouldn't look too much into these 'efficacy' reports as the company who pays the most usually get the most favorable report. I look more into the long-term side effects which they dare not report.

long-covid is indeed underreported upon

Unfortunately, there are still many people who want to politicize that a certain vaccine is 'no good' just because it came from a country they hate.

this is from Vox so the Sputnik and NovaVax is more likely to be underrated than overrated.

Have solicited the advise of a person who forms entities and manages them on behalf of villages.  She said to write a formal letter pointing out the irregularities and asking for the application to be rejected.  If successful, that would stop the formation of the entity.  However, I know in many countries deliberately filing with a governmental agency information the applicant knows to be false is a crime.  

I would like to know that since it would give the ultimate leverage in forcing this person who is falsifying the information to remove themselves from anything to do with the finances and operation of the village.  Merely pointing out that what has happened could be turned in as a criminal offense will likely persuade this person to just bow out of the scene. 

 

Think this article is a good start for searching relevant information :

call for a new meeting, but not through the person who filed the report.

 

you could suggest to the Land Office to attend as expert, given the number of irregularities.

do not give the self appointed person the chance to hide behind the entity that is, inter alia, created at the Owners cost

call for a new meeting, but not through the person who filed the report.

having said that, be prepared for a large stone hitting your window, as it seems obvious to me the self appointed boss has his fingers in the cookie jar.

When I moved in Udon Thani I went to Ampour and they gave me a new Yellow book and they just let me keep the old one so now I have two yellow books.

I also have an “old” yellow book, but it has a tiny stamp “deregistered” or something to that effect,
