EC to Ask Court to Dissolve MFP
Yes It's a shame but Thailand is a small player on the world wide stage and shining a light on other countries failings only invites the same criticism upon themself.(those criticising are just as bad)

EC to Ask Court to Dissolve MFP
Of course mentioning the stated goals of the IMF, WEF, WHO etc etc is portrayed as conspiracy theory by the "mainstream media" who themself are totally co-opted by those same 3 letter agencies.

They sell those valves in some MR D.I.Y stores always worth scouring their isles to see the mind boggling wonders available. I'm always reminded of Weird Al's Hardware store song.

What is the list of requirements for Non O extension based on marriage 1 year at Jomtien Immigration?(March 20 2020)
Well it's that time again the time we all look forward to the exquisite Jomtien desk 6 experience. New for me this year was needing a recent photo on the TM7 form, I had been using the same one for years before and it was excepted,the very pleasant staff at the vastly improved information/queue number desk had actually spotted it was an old photo and said it has to be within 3 months me being the silly old bugger I am thought I'd risk it 100 baht for 2 new "passport sized" photos at the shop at the entrance on the left. Talking of photos I had a ding dong with 2 other photo shops as they refused to take photos off my phone with a Bluetooth connection only Line or e-mail as my phone has no internet connection I was stuffed. The unnamed shop I did use where incapable of producing 6x4 sized prints and unwilling to arrange a print on a A4 piece of paper one photo in landscape and the other in portrait orientation eventually I had to walk away go get a beer to calm my nerves ! ( it was after midday so quite acceptable ) and let my wife handle the family photo's this of course another case of me being a silly old bugger as the oversized and stretched photos where excepted although was questioned on when they where taken. This year we where specifically warned that there needs to be more than 400,000 baht in the bank account during the 30 day "consideration" period..something I don't remember them saying before. So a recap of the rainforest required this year 2024 Jomtien March 2024 2 x copies of and arranged in 2 piles in this order 1. TM7 application form printed double sided signed both sides + new (within 3 months) photo attached. 2. passport face page 3. visa page 4. previous visa extension page/s 5. TM6 6. Marriage Kor Ror 3 both sides on one page 7. updated Kor Ror 2 From the Amphur office (can use passport instead of wife's ID as long as it's the one listed on the KR2 old passport ok) 8. ID Wife ( front back same page) 9. copy House book ( showing current address) 10.Bank statement confirming 400,000 + in Thai bank for at least 2 month's (60 days) + 3 months statement + a transaction on that day updated book and copy of all pages Bank statement must be from that day 11. Family photos 4 color photos on 2 A4 pages (black and white acceptable for the second copy) you and wife at home, 1 must clearly show you including the home/house/condo number. I did 2 x 6x4 on a page printed at home was acceptable also acceptable in 2024 shop printed non standard size stretched photos 🙂 12. Map to house 2 sets of everything sign every page at the bottom ( blue ink best) except your wife's ID/house book which they must sign. To do on the day bank transaction update book copy of last page bank book bank statements Remember they want to see a witness during the 30 day under consideration period when immigration police come to visit you at home, the witness needs to provide 2 copies of ID and house book too.

Nato and EU states ‘considering sending troops to Ukraine’
Yes it is ridiculous, the "strategy" was to destabilise/weaken Russia and cause regime change it hasn't worked both Putin and Russia are in a stronger position even after the illegal sanctions imposed upon their economy so the answer is very simple stop the funding ! unfortunately (for them) the Ukrainians will have to agree to Russia's conditions for cessation of hostilities but at least they will still have about 80% of their territory left. There was a "peace: deal on the table right at the beginning but Boris Johnson went to Kiev and scuppered that. Sorry that is just plainly MAD Putin has said time and again that he will use nukes if needs be. You go poking the bear in his cave and he comes out and mauls you to death isn't it better to leave the bear alone ?

'Dehumifier' or 'Dry' selction on aircon.
Normal on my York aircon.

'Dehumifier' or 'Dry' selction on aircon.
How can a compressor work at lower speed if it only has 1 speed ? Yes an inverter compressor can run at slower speed but the lower the speed the lower the cooling capacity. To draw moisture out of the air the evaporator unit (inside the cooled space) needs to be cold. Condensation forms on the cold metal evaporator just like it forms on a very cold glass of water sitting on a table on a hot humid day. If you ever have the misfortune of the aircon drain pipe blocking up you'll find that quite a few liters of water can be removed overnight causing damage to furniture and any electronic equipment under the dripping water. Having humidity below about 40% can cause discomfort in the eyes nose and lungs.

total crap, to remove moisture from the air the compressor has to work making the evaporator cold that is the only way moisture/humidity is removed.

In order to dry the air the indoor unit called the "evaporator" needs to be cold for that to happen the outside unit with the compressor needs to run the compressor uses the electricity the more it runs the more it costs therefore "dry" mode will cost more.

Kinda covered in the Karaoke category but I certainly sympathise with those suffering from heavy bass noise as its virtually impossible block out or mitigate. I myself have experienced it at 2 different locations the culprit much to my surprise where both times "students" paying homage to their teachers on national teachers day these where "students" who thought it was perfectly acceptable to setup a magawatt sound system and blast "meditation" music for want of a better description at sound levels that vibrated windows and doors from before sunrise till sunset in a dense residential area. I would have thought any teacher would have taught respect for others among teachings but I thought wrong.

Trump doesn't have Alzheimer's Biden quite possibly does. Why is Biden not being prosecuted for the classified documents kept in his gargage ? As for the 91 charges just part of the witch hunt, if Trump gets back to the Whitehouse I hope he'll find a slew of charges to fling against his political enemies in retribution...use lawfare against them as they have not just against him but his followers whilst having the audacity to call themselfs defenders of "democracy" This witch hunt against Trump is the polar opposite of democratic it's dystopian dictatorship.

what are some stories about Russians trying to make $$?
I'd say "Ya Bah" or methamphetamine is worse but yes alcohol is bad too, prohibition doesn't work best just to legalise everything stop the "war on drugs" use that money to help those who want help to stop using in a detrimental way (those that have no problems carry on) those who commit "crimes" treat them as anyone else there are ample laws to cover every possibility already.

No I don't think so, but believe what you want and if you believe that then get ready for WWIII.
