  1. Go to Bangkok Hospital if you need more help than just an eye test. (English speakers abound) They can also make glasses for you or just give you the prescription te get made elsewhere
  2. No No trespassing sign, no fence, no gate, idiot Swiss people. Why do they let these people run & (or) own a chang sanctuary ? Should that not be reserved for Thais ?
  3. Spidermike. Put the blame fairly where it lies. SRT, it is overbloated, corrupt, only interested in ensuring they get rent increases for their vast land holdings & have failed all Thais in their inability to even get the chicken across the road yet alone develop what should be an efficient, organized modern rail system due to massive disappearing monies on a yearly basis. Yes, the Government of the day is also to blame for allowing this charade to even continue. Hua Hin, if they do not organize the long term water problem soon, Hua Hin & Cha Am will never develop any further
  4. 30 days on arrival with a possible 15 day extension from Imm' for tourists up to 3 times a year. Organize Imm' so 2 days overstay alarm bells start to ring. Start having some "real" checks before any form of NON Imm visa is issued. It is time to get tough or Thailand will end up as the "human excretment capital of the world". But until you cannot "buy" your visa (& I don't mean the 800,000 Bht in a bank) it is impossible to stop the "bad eggs"
  5. How about just locally produced alcohol over 30%. This will include that bloody Lao khao which kills thousands of Thais every year (Just raw dangerous rice spirit)
  6. Your wife (who I presume owns the property) is supposed to fill in a Tm30 within 24 hours, but unless a person is going to seek an extension past & beyond the 30 day on arrival visa exempt I would ignore in particular as no Tm 6 on arrival, they have no idea where she is or supposed to be now. but to get technical ?
  7. Try bleeding the air tank. You can pump from the mains but ensure you have a clack or non return valve installed
  8. Bangkok Bank branch other than yours will gladly do your letter(s) as required for Immigration purposes as will KTB or SCB. Some of you people need to stop sprouting your mouths off. Interest on a fixed term 7 month term with BKB will get you 1.8% today. Again, why are you rubbishing banks by speaking untruths ?
  9. Agree with all the posters on here re pollution by dirty trucks & burning fields. I would add that burning incense sticks, good luck papers etc should have been banned indoors years ago but no Government had the intestinal fortitude to pass such a law
  10. Why are the window shades down for expected takeoff ?
  11. They got the opening statement incorrect & I think they still meant 4mil a M2 = 16mil sq wa.
  12. Interesting to hear the conflicting comments New Zealand nationals used to get 90 days visa free entry on arrival which was reciprocal. Then NZ said they had too many "ladies of the night" plying their trade & went the "prior to arrival" visa route. Obviously not a long time later NZ back to 30 days coming to Thailand. Will be interesting to see if anything comes of this.
  13. Would think formaline content should be controlled by Health Dept ?
  14. As the law stand at present, yes. Plastic screw top container, go! Just pray the flight is not diverted to Malaysia 555
  15. If the owner wishes to feed the "poor" woman, up to him. Some of the comments on here show a distinct lack of any moral decency at all
  16. I enjoy going to Laos & have found everything there I enjoy. The Sawadee Bar & Restaurant has over 400 different beers, including from Belgium, great farang food & clean massage places. After 10pm the Clubs operate & the ladies I find very accommodating. It is also a much more beautiful country than Thailand
  17. He is absolutely correct. Sewerage treatment & fresh water coming soon. Still surprised that with the island getting that kind of income that the tunnel through to Patong was never sorted.
  18. This is what the deep sea port in Diwai (Myanmar) was for. Thai Government spent billions upgrading the road from Tak to Maesot to take heavy trucks & Ital Thai was building infrastructure in Myanmar.
  19. Their property, their rules. Very valuable property, has it been sold or long term lease ?
  20. I thought that ASEAN members were not supposed to interfere with other members internal affairs. That is what they say when Myanmar is mentioned
  21. They are escaping from the Military Junta who are bombing & using missiles both from the air & ground. Been quiet for the last week, must be waiting for more ordnance from China
  22. Funny, I had reason to visit the Land Office yesterday & the gardener is having a big burn up of leaves & rubbish in the corner. When Govt Depts are obviously not interested what chance does Thailand have ?
  23. You obviously did not try the chickens feet
  24. The more rules the more Mr Plod rubs his hands
