  1. This market moved and is 50m down the soi right next to where market used to be.
  2. Exactly this! Why settle for Chinese made junk, because if it sold in Central, it is Chinese junk. We live I Thailand, Pattaya, where we can have custom made leather stuff, that truly is unique. Two exsmples, the other day I had case made for portable amplifier by the same guy who this wallet for me couple of years back. He works at Theprasit market, so easy to find, prices similar to random junk from Terminal and Central. Except you get custom made, unique stuff. 2 pics what this Thai craftsman has made, took couple of hours as was sitting next to him, watching. This type of craft is dying, because peole settle for supermarket stuff.
  3. Avoid retailers at shopping malls, this is one the places in the world where we can order custom made wallet, stingray, alligator, and it is made in front of you, a unique piece and no one else has it. Instead, people are recommending junk from Terminal and Central, I just do not understand.
  4. Hi, I am very interested, could you help me with a search? Should I search Russian+Patttaya+wallet? Or perhaps you know his FB page?
  5. How do I block people like you on Android? Windows I hover over the username, blocked. Why is the Android block feature hidden do we?
  6. I envy your BP and low pulse, you are very healthy. The lowest I've seen my pulse is 58, daily average including nights 61. You blood pressure numbers are amazing. I go to bed 3am, wake up around noon. Feel good.
  7. Seems so. I tried to think of possible reasons, maybe to squeeze us in future, but they still don't know anything about me. For example, they don't know that I do not reside in Canada, not in Thailand other than 5-6 months. Even if I did reside on Canada most of the year, no government in the West would give Thai authorities any information about my finances based only on my passport number. Thailand may ask, but who? Then there is a factor thar my money lands from Wise to Kasikor account. I believe Wise is considered UK operator, I doubt Wise gives any information to Kasikorn where my transfer initiated. Why would they? As far as Kasikorn is concerned, this is my money, sent from Wise. Obviously taxes are already paid because these are my accounts, my name. This campaign seems some sort of bureaucratic dance, if it stays with Kbank then it was bank's idea, if other Thai banks follow, then it is some rule by government. The reason I reacted to kbank email, this is my only account here, I never had a long visa so it is a hassle to open another account. To prevent any issues with current account, I went to the branch. If I had several bank accounts here, probably wouldn't have bothered. Staff in branch certainly didn't seem excited, anticipating some massive change, it seemed routine paperwork.
  8. Impossible to tell if you should react to this email. I'm in Thailand 6 months every year and Kbank customer about 10 years, I received the email with 3 forms attached. So I took my Canadian passport, bank book with me to my Kasikorn branch. Manager knew immiditely what I needed afte I showed her this email. She copied my passport, made me sign the copy, and sign 1 printed page of almost no personal information about my Canadian income, not my address in Canada, no tax ID number, nothing. Sat down with a teller, signed that one paper and walked out. They didn't learn anything new from me, other than the number of new passport. That was it, all done she said. I don't know, maybe go and ask them. I never printed the 3 attached forms, I just wanted them to ask what it is, instead I got it all done in 5 minutes, most of it waiting in line.
  9. Cool, that would make thing simple. Thank you Very much! You are a kind person.
  10. Oh, if I buy normal SIM, top up and use used code, it works? Because I'm not succeeding buying these SIM online. Stuck at ID number, 13 digits.
  11. I'm trying to fill the AIS required fields, on of then is National ID number. It has to be 13 digit number and appears that system only accepts Thai ID. Is there any way around it? Went to Central Pattaya AIS store, of they do not sell these packs. Look at the pic
  12. Thank you, this looks good, 6 months is exactly what I need. Net Marathon Max 6 Months 1,150 Baht
  13. Biden should have stepped aside much earlier, so Democrats could have run proper primary. Biden has lots to answer for, and Trump's second term is on Biden. The very worst period of Biden refusing to step aside was in June, after his horrendous debate performance, Biden couldn't speak, he looked like he was about to literally collapse on stage. And what did Biden do? Instead of calling a press conference next morning after the debate, Biden kept insisting that he will be6st Trump. That month of Biden living in alternative universe is what crippled Kamala Harris. Biden was clinging to power, seemingly unaware that he isn't even capable of finishing a a sentence. Biden wrote to Congress Democrats that he is not about to go anywhere and will run against Trump. Has Biden ran in November, he would have possibly lost even NY. Every painful day of Biden's and Jill Biden pushibf Jõe to stay, was painful and did lasting damage to Dem ticket. Excuse, me Dr. Jill Biden. Joe's legacy is clear - Joe Biden gave America and the world Donald Trump's presidency. I hope Joe can sleep at night. Trump now has popular vote and convincing majority of electoral college, America deserves Trump. Rest of us, Ukraine, Eastern Europe, Baltic states, we didn't deserve Trump's second term. Ttrump's presidecy is on Biden alone, no pussyfooting around it. His 40 year career in Washington is wiped away. He is a sad, old loser.
  14. Hi, resurrecting the old thread, I'm in need of prepaid AIS data package. I've been with True for several years, 70 Gg monthly at 20 Mbps, 200 bath plus tax. It's an old pack but they keep renewing it every months and I'm happy. Now the not so happy part, True Move has holes around Beach Rd, it's been like this for years, coverage just stops for half a minute, sometimes longer. But often drop in coverage happens at the worst moment in the middle of zoom call. There are spots on Beach Rd where True coverage can become unbearably slow, for example Beach rd and soi 6 intersection. I'm most of Pattaya and In Bangkok, True is perfect. Does anyone know similar data pack at AIS, say, 50 Gb at 20 Mbps, I would just buy AIS SIM and use it with second SIM slot. I would stay with True only because banking apps are tied to my True number and changing the number with a bank is pain. NextG, you have always been on top of current data packs, what would your advice be if I buy data pack with AIS?
  15. Hi all, has anyone done Coronary Artery Calcium Scan around Pattaya, and which hospital would you recommend? This test seems to be a very useful one, i have never done this test, all I do in Thailand is yearly bloodwork in Life Care Pattaya.
