  1. If it is possible to find somebody you can trust to take care of your wife I would recommend you apply personally, with all relevant documents. You should be in and out within an hour. If that's not possible you will need the assistance of an agent. Best of luck to you and to your wife.
  2. Just for starters, allies in WW1 and WW2, democracy and language.
  3. Ridiculous. Too many polls are adjusted to reflect the views of the pollster. Best ignored.
  4. No matter what all the dog/animal haters say the fact is that it is very unusual for a dog to attack a human unless provoked.
  5. By and large still a conservative country. The irony is, of course, that Thai women went topless well into the 19th century.
  6. Alcohol and meth tend to result in aggressive, hostile behaviour, while marijuana tends to result in passive, friendly behaviour.
  7. 40 million was a nightmare with overcrowding at all major tourist destinations, facilities airports and immigration offices. 80 million, if it were to actually happen, would obviously be twice as bad.
  8. For Chuvit's family's sake I hope he has life insurance.
  9. In some cases the police have prior info, usually the offender has been grassed by people they've upset, in others it's entirely random and on a whim.
  10. Soon there will be no wildlife of any kind in Thailand. At best Thai officials couldn't care less, at worst they take a share of the poaching profits.
  11. Disgusting. Should have got 10 years with no chance of parole. Money talks again, sadly.
  12. The Thai government's failure to address this issue was one of the factors leading to the financial crash of 1997/8.
  13. Ridiculous for an adult to get invloved in a fight like this. Grow up or leave.
  14. Thailand is not the USA. Things work differently here. Whatever you are doing in another country never forget that.
  15. The assets are in your Thai wife's name, and the business you have been involved in is not permitted for foreigners. You can only walk away.
  16. Boris will likely abstain. I doubt he will feature much in politics unless or until Labour win the next general election. If that happens, as seems likely, expect him re-emerge shortly thereafter.
  17. Whatever you do don't harm them. Just leave them alone.
  18. This sounds reasonable but bear in mind that it is the last thing that many of the sex workers want. They value their anonymity.
  19. My Thai wife and I were married in Taiwan 1990 after which we had our marriage licence certified by the Thai embassy in Hong Kong. This has been accepted by Immigration in Bangkok when applying for a visa based on marriage, and for subsequent extensions.
