With hundreds of thousands of Thais out of work during lockdown and subsequently due to recession why import itinerant workforces?

Just done mine via pc with no problems except after it was approved I opened the next appointment which then wouldn't print using their print key so had to print screen to Microsoft word to print. Never had that problem before!

It's just that I am due to  do mine at the beginning of August and with the  amnesty finishing at the end of July it's likely to be pandemonium at Jomtien?

Can an agent do an marriage  extension  renewal without me  attending? 

Just done my 90 day on line. Don't see the problem with continuing with your 90 day reporting and changing to a marriage visa when your year is up including a border bounce if necessary

I have now done 15 mths of FTT TransferWise transfers into Bangkok Bank and collected Credit Advices for each which I then take back to my bank to produce the IO letter. No extra charge and no 7 day wait

There is a possibility that better hygiene  habits could reduce deaths from other conditions if maintained

A really bad idea to invite in those who have poisened the rest of the world. Clearly money is more important than Thai lives

Is Jomtien allowing renewels/extensions more than 30 days in advance is up to 45 days?

If you go through an agent it will always cost more as owner has to recoup the fee. And many so called agents just go around collecting contact No's which you can do yourself

The sea food restaurants should stay. Everything else can go/ be moved

Use same material as rest of wall and cut out and tooth and bond to avoid differential expansion. Then skim whole wall before sealing and painting

Herd immunity, foot and mouth, all indicative of Tories propensity to cull. Good job Jabba the hut and Darth Vader got Covid as otherwise we'll all be for the chop!

Unwise with the v high CV death toll in the UK. Best to stay in Thailand

Never been able to use the App. Pay mine on line using website. But fiddly but always works with link to Krungsri.

If Wuhan had been locked down in November when this started we wouldn't be in this situation. Air travel spread the virus worldwide before the Chinese acted. UK does include care home deaths now

High pitched  traditional  Thai  roofs ideally suited to high winds and tropical downpours  as no vacuum  created over flat  roof  causing lift like airplane wing and run off cleared rapidly.  All  that and better ventilation  too!  

Where's the nearest expansion  joint? If none then don't worry  you now have one. Or stick a telltale on it and monitor. 

Just stop calling it a lockdown! It isn't. It is just a series of sensible safeguarding measures to reduce the spread of a highly infectious disease in a community notorious for ignoring officialdom and it's working. And it could help sort out the gig economy which allows that section of the community that extracts inordinate profit and then dumps their workforce at the first sign of a problem.

I think Thai ladies have worked out a way to get deposits and discounts back without telling their husbands!

Our village recently had PWA supply installed. Made mess of roads installing overly large pipes and kit. We all bought meters from PWA on basis overall the metred cost would be lower than previously charged for a village supply by pumped well topped up by tanker when it ran low. Suprise suprise when the first PWA bills came in they were higher than the village were charging probably because the PWA were pumping a lot of air with their water! Luckily the sceptics amongst had not disconnected our village supplies so are able to switch back especially as those who cut off their village supplies are now getting spasmodic supplies from PWA. Expect a lot of reconnections to the village supply which is still topped up by tanker all for a marginally lower cost than PWA.

Why are they giving rebates? Can't recall our pea deposits but pwa was 4000bht

The vast majority of those infected are returning itinerant workers and those avoiding lockdown. Falang are much more likely to be infected by contact with them not vice versa.
