  1. Possible in Thailand ? I thought than even with a Thai wife, it was impossible to have a joint account
  2. Hello, I explain from the beginning : I was married with my Thai girfriend on june 1 st, in a small amphoe, up country I got a marriage certificate ( two pages, not recto-verso ) ; when I went to MOFA to have it certified, the girl at the desk told that this certificate was not good because in the bottom, there was a signature which says that this document is only for the person who verifies, so they send me to Lakti, where they they made a new contrat without the wrong text and the good signature and again, problem: MOFA did the job, at the moment I didn't pay attention , but they put their stamp on the original and they gave me a copy of the original ( without the stamp ) now my embassy , to declare the mariage in my home country , wants the copy with the original MOFA stamp, but this stamp is on the original contract and I want to keep the original contract with me : what to do ? come back to MOFA and ask they do the job again, but this time correctly ; BTW, does immigration wants the original Ko ro 2 or a copy is enought ? Thanks
  3. Correct : I have the letter with me, and it's written on the left. OP, just show this text , they will know what you want ; it means " guaranteed deposit " and, below , in Thai , " for commander of immigration office " ( more or less translated )
  4. It shows that "90 " days is not essential, they could live without them ; if they can do it for rich people, why not for "not so rich" people ?
  5. it's this one ! เรือคายัค เรือตกปลา เรือเป่าลมแบบ 3 ที่นั่ง New Era | Lazada.co.th I tried it this morning, good impression ; water is very dirty, some seaweeds, deeper than I thougt, but nice experience thanks to tonray for his good advices !
  6. Hello, in front of my house, there is a rice field, but in raining season, it becomes a lake ( 100 m x 100 m about ) , 1 meter or more deep; one of the villager has a boat and goes fishing, so I tought, "why not me ? " ( not for fishing, just for fun, fishing maybe later ) so, I bought to Lazada an inflatable boat, brand " Intime" ; it seems good, and I intend to use it about one month a year, till water goes two questions ; can I leave it under the sun ( when it's sunny , of course ) , and how to clean it , to store it ? do you have any advice to give ? thank you
  7. I didn't speak for me, I am already married ; what you say about a lawyer is not possible with my embassy ( France ) : they ask an original birth certificate , no older than three months ( no e-mail, by post ) , because married or dead are written on the birth certificate ; if not married, nothing is written, if married, date of mariage ( or divorce ) is written ) ; impossible to cheat and a lawyer can't do nothing
  8. Yes, maybe no problem for Thai autorities, but what about the embassy ? they need a document which attests you are not married already ( and you are, even with the same person ), and MFA will do nothing if they don't have the embassy's paper
  9. "He admitted that it is not unusual for wild animals, such as tigers, to stray out of their habitat in search for food because of the increase in their population, resulting in a fight for territory and sustenance." That's what worries me : increase in their population, which is good, but not enough place for their territory ans sustenance ; what will happen if there are more and more tigers ? The authorities should give them more space, expand the park, but is it possible ?
  10. Bangkok is in dark red zone, and normally, you will have a quarantine when you come back to Petchabun; that's what I got when returning from BKK two months ago ( but I don't live in Petchabun )
  11. Hello I have a hibiscus of about 2 meters, a lot of red flowers; it is at the bottom of my garden, not far from a paddy field; now, the rice field, because of the rains, is a huge basin, and the water arrives in my garden and the hibiscus already has its feet in the water I fear he drowned; it is too big for me to put it in a pot; I have already had a magnificent Chinese magniolia which stayed two weeks with its feet in the water, and it ended up dying (all its leaves turned yellow and it ended up having none at all); what can I do for my hibiscus? this year, it's raining very much and we are only at the beginning of September, it's not finished thank you
  12. Really, first, I love " Fundamentals of thai language ", and second, for reading, I read everything on my computer or my e-boot BUT for thai vocabulary ; it's so nice to have a real book in my hands ! mine is big, comfortable and very easy for the eyes ; it's this one 9789742127855: New Se-ed's English-Thai Thai-English Dictionary Revised and Updated Edition (English Thai Thai English Dictionary, Completely Revised and Updated) - AbeBooks - Dr. Wit Thiengburanathum Ph.D, B.Sc., M.Sc., MPA, LL.B.: 9742127859
  13. Hello, about 6 months validity, is it "after the extension " or " after the end of extension " ? My embassy says "after extension" but I want to be sure to have one year not six months in my case, extension every april 14 th, my passport is valid until september 3 of 2023 so, I can have my extension in next april till april 2023 then ask a new passport at the end of 2022 , as say my embassy ? If it's six months after the end of the extension, I must have a passport valid till octobre 2023 , which is not the case thank you
  14. Three months and two month ago, i was in Bangkok, and took only taxis ( did'nt want the crowed BTS ans MRT ) , for at least 30 minutes each time, my wife spoke all the time with the drivers, everybody had a mask, no screen between, and as you see, three months later , I am still here, not sick, so for me, no problem ... I took also two taxis for 150 kms each , same result, not sick and at that time I was not vaccinated but one driver at least was; now I think that all of them are vaccinated
  15. Thanks for the information, now I have it on my smartphone; maybe to have a Thai ID can be useful, too
  16. what before " @SangraTanee " because the address is not complete ? I have something to ask to this person thanks
  17. Johnson & Johson says that a second jab of their vaccine shows antibodies 9 times more effective than the first jab, 8 months after the first jab 2nd dose of Janssen 8 months after the first? J&J says yes - Debate Post
  18. Why do you think you will have all this things ? Old age is prepared long in advance ; physical and intellectual activity, healthy food, you can avoid many problems one important thing, keep morale and don't think too much ( kit too mut ) of what has not happened yet
  19. ???? may be you are American ... here is an article in English about Israel, it's not a mater of magic potion but of contaminated people A grim warning from Israel: Vaccination blunts, but does not defeat Delta | Science | AAAS (sciencemag.org)
  20. I just read an article ( not in English, so I don't give the link ) , which says that in Israel, vaccinated with Pfizer, there a is catastrophic peak of contaminated people ( 4 th in the world ) , and now they say that against Delta, Pfizer is not so good, and AZ is better
  21. I think too it's an Oriental whip snake, I have seen one about one meter from me , very strange creature, exactly the same colour than nature and a very flat head !
  22. I am French, and I don't know if it's the same in Belgium : I don't think your wife will pay taxes if your marriage is recognized in Belgium, but if it's like in France, when you die , she can have half of your pension for the rest of her life,( starting at the age of 58 years old and married for more than 5 years ) anyway, ask how it works in Belgium but if it's like in France, it's interresting to recognized it in Belgium ( as you say, it's your embassy who does the job with documents of the MFA and translations ( I know an officilal Thai translator for French, good and not expensive )
  23. Good there are people like this, I know some of them for myself, they do it for pleasure and to keep a good shape not the same planet than the "olympic competitors " or mercenaries who compet for an other country, for money in athletics, see a Danish or Swedish as black as ebony makes me puzzled but I know why they are here ( see African countries like Kenya or Ethiopia , who are the best for long distances runs )
  24. I have learnt to read thai ( and also the fundamentals of the language ) with this Bible , very good book, and now I can read easily, ( doesn't mean I understand everything but I have a very big and good dictonnary and I note new words ) I know " learn with mod ", good but it doesn't explain the basis of the language as the fundamentals of Thai language does now I read this , with Thai subtitles and slow speech with VLC if needed Advanced Thai with Kruu Momm - YouTube
