Chinese tourists drop by 75,093 following shooting in Bangkok
fusion58 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I have a feeling their fears won’t be allayed by any stretch when the perp merely gets a slap on the wrist or when he tries to square up by shaving his head and donning an orange robe for a week or two. TIT. -
More details on Thai taxation of overseas income
fusion58 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
That’s alarming if they mean foreigners can be taxed retroactively for every year they have been a “tax resident” in Thailand, i.e., indefinitely far back in the past. My biggest question right now is “when will this <deleted> go into effect?” I want to make sure I’m the <deleted> out of here before that happens. -
I miss the days before those airlines started using codeshare flights from LAX to BKK and a business class fare was ~$3K. I used to enjoy flying on the upper deck of that Delta 747 all the way to BKK.

Famous Thai rock band Carabao to disband in March
fusion58 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Yeah, I was going to note that to judge music solely on the basis of popularity or commercial success is little more than a bandwagon appeal. Right now there are any number of ten year-old musical prodigies on YouTube who can play circles around all of us. -
New TM30 Registration Web Site
fusion58 replied to BKK57's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I can confirm the reports. I tried to log into my account on the Section38 app for iOS using my old credentials. No luck. Then, after registering on the new TM30 site, I tried to log into the app with my new credentials. Still no luck. Unfortunately, the Section38 app appears to be dead in the water. -

I've always used the Section 38 app. I wonder if that's still an option? -

Especially when we’re talking about a bureaucracy populated by half-wits who are too lazy to learn English. -
Thai PM sees a role for Thaksin when he gets out of jail

US Green Card for Thai Spouse
fusion58 replied to Pawpal's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
Question for anyone who's been through the process: Submitted the petition for alien spouse on wife's behalf here in Thailand. What happens if my wife's application is approved and she's in the U.S. on a B-2 visa when the approval occurs? Would she have to make another round trip to Thailand just to take delivery of the sealed envelope and return through U.S. immigration with it? -
The man should tell the parents he wants to take their daughter to the U.S. for a Western-style wedding performed by a minister or a justice of the peace and watch their reaction. If the parents object, he should ask “why am I expected to respect your culture when you don’t feel any obligation to respect mine?” Indeed, in a relationship between two people from different cultures, shouldn’t mutual respect for each other’s culture be a must?

Is FireFox now realy the worst browser ever?
fusion58 replied to BenStark's topic in IT and Computers
Same. I’ve been a loyalist since the Netscape days. I run a number of script and ad blocking extensions, which can sometimes slow me down when I need to white list sites, but I can use Chrome and Opera as backups if I have any problems.
