    Just renewed my UK passport here in Bangkok one year prior to expiration of my current passport. Straightforward and efficient, 6 weeks from start to finish. Later had info regarding my previous 1 year extension transferred to my new passport when appying for a further 1 year retirement extension.
  2. Thingamabob
    ....all of which goes to prove that a retirement extension backed by 800k deposited permanently in an account in your name only is the easiest way to go.

    Never used an agent in over 40 years. Unless there is more to this than there appears to be I suggest you go back to Immigration for further clarification.

    Go to immigration without delay and explain your situation (you may need a Thai speaker to accompany you unless you are competent in spoken Thai). Could be that in the light of current events Immigration will be helpful given you are a Russian passport holder.

    This is not remotely concerned with the victim. The 'investigation' is all about who gets what from 30m in compensation, plus the proceeds from an insurance pay-out.

    Sad and pathetic. Those who rule Thailand are determined to keep Thai children, and thereaafter Thai adults, as ignorant as possible.

    Yet another u-turn tragedy. They are a nightmare and should be replaced by far fewer in number u-bridges.

    Yet another animal hater.

    It's a question that gets asked by immigration officials all over the world if you appear to be coming and going an unusually large number of times. Nobody here can provide an answer for you, you have to figure out the best genuine explanation that applies in your particular case.

    Good for you. Killing and eating animals is disgusting.

    He is wise to stay neutral on the Russian invasion. There are hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing into Russia which is never mentioned in the Western media. The current situation is far more complex than we are being told.

    Has the previously un-named passenger been named yet ?

    I fear even a strong swimmer stands little chance in a river such as the Chao Phraya. The current is incredibly strong unless very near to the bank.

    This has been a shambles. Not much by way of assistance, apparently, from Chevron/Caltex.

    The 'anonymous laundromat patron' who ratted on her is a creep of the first order.

    If Putin has identified the West as being wet, woke and hopeless China will also have come to the same conclusion. I fear an invasion of Taiwan by China will follow. That will really put the Thais on the spot diplomatically speaking.
  17. Thingamabob
    Well done. Message to knockers-please go away, or find something other than Thailand/Thai people to whine about.
  18. Thingamabob
    Well said.

    You must be very new to Thailand, and to Asia in general. In this part of the world many people have to make money to survive any way they can. What you are referring to in your verbose, self-righteous posting is petty corruption. If you can't tolerate it I suggest you should find somewhere else to live.

    A king cobra. Reportedly returned to the wild, but more likely ended up as somebody's dinner, sad to say.
  21. Thingamabob
    I suspect he will be prosecuted, but only on minor charges.
  22. Thingamabob
    The sad thing is that most Thais are potentially very bright and are quick learners, but are intentionally held back by those who wish to keep them uninformed and ignorant.

    I just had my Pfizer booster 4 months after my second Astra Zenica injection. Feeling more tired than usual, but no serious side effects.
  24. Thingamabob
    Awful, just awful.

    Never mind Bangkok, I would like to see Thailand changed back to Siam. More inclusive, and sounds better.
