"Narongkorn Somtom (Director of the Region 12 irrigation office) wrote in a letter dated Sept 7th, that the water contained in the four major dams of Thailand (Bhumibol, Sirikit, Pasak Chonlasit and Kwai Noi) stands at only 1955 cubic meters. Water is currently being discharged at 16 million cubic meters per day from the four dams collectively.

Some math: 1955/16 = 122 days of usable water left.

122/30 = approximately 4 months

That means, if rainfall is not significant and prolonged in the coming four months (which it isn't likely to be), then the dams could completely dry up by late December/early January.

Any thoughts? Have I missed something here?"

What you have missed whilst attempting to scaremonger is that there will be significant rain in the coming months.

September already

What month is this rain going to

Appear .

In only a few weeks time dry season will be here again

It is not scaremongering the country will have a big problem next year and it will have an effect on everyday life

How can I find out if a particular Pattaya bar girl (or Bangkok bar girl) is still frequenting her old work place and or freelancing secretly?

Just use your common sense

Common sense is very often left at the airport

In Chonburi the number of Thai workers per work permit (married) is 4 unless anyone can point me towards the code that states otherwise

thanks

If married to a Thai then it is two Thai employees per work permit.

It has been that way for a very long time.

Best for you to contact a law firm

For advice on how to set up a company

When I obtained my 2 year 'temporary' car and motorcycle licences, earlier this year, I provided a declaration from my embassy as 'proof' of my address in Thailand.

Is this not also acceptable for the 5 year licences? Or, are there different criteria?

2 year???? is this a new thing or??? Thought it still was 1 year and than 5 years..

Glegolo

2 Year temporary license has been issued for about 6 months now. There is no more 1 year license

Link please...

you can watch it on youtube

Saw some lemons in Carrefour couple of days ago. Worked out at about 25 Baht each!!

No you didn't

How can someone rack up a large bill like that?

I thought hospital care in Thailand was relatively cheap to Westerners.

I'm worried now because I don't have insurance here. I'll probably get a yearly BUPA plan.

200000 is not a large bill for hospital care

Did you not read the contract before you signed it ?

With you being a landlord already you should

Of know better.

What would happen if said gentleman went to the embassy with his expired passport and just refused to leave?

I guess they would simply throw him onto the streets and have him arrested for overstay, it's to be expected these days.

ok... the (UK) media might be interested in this, especially about a guy in distress needing medical help

Interested in what exactly ?

The two stays of four months doing visa runs every thirty days would raise a lot of suspicion.

They may of thought you have been teaching.

What did the IO stamp in your passport

Best to contact the embassy

For some advice.

There is assistance they can offer but it does depend on your friends circumstances.

next day before lunchtime.

It does not take long to process your visa you will have your passport back tomorrow or Thursday.

I am a UK citizen so I should be entitled to a visa free. Any help?

You are entitled to nothing

Who is the other guy then that they paraded around all the time. I am confused now.

Yes same as me,who was the guy arrested in the apartments Bangkok with over one hundred officers at the scene or am i missing something here.Can somebody please explain.

You must be easily confused

I thought they got him many days allready?

How do we know that this is the real bomber?

Nobody said the guy arrested on Saturday was the bomber

The man on the CCTV footage at Erawan shrine seemed to have a stronger build.

Also if the guy we see here has cut his hair, it might not have been as bushy as on the footage.

Wait and learn more.

Nobody said that the man arrested is the bomber

So many posters seem upset the police may have busted the terrorist gang- and from a tip-off too! From what I've seen police forces around the world rely on tip-offs, sometimes they ignore them as in The World Trade Centre attacks where flying instructors warned the police their Saudi students weren't interested in learning how to take off or land a plane, just how to fly!, but the police ignored them.

Well done whoever, apartment owner and/or police if you have started to crack this case.

Yes there is some retarded people who would like this to remain unsolved. Just for them so they can slag off the police and the investigation.

where is all the TNT then?

Who are you asking ?

Show me the bomber's motive to justify the arrest!

How many times do you need to post the same question

did you not look at the evidence photos

Now the next question will be Is Why would a Turkish national come over to Thailand to commit such am atrocity..

Have you been living on the moon ?
