  1. What I want to see is the Guys-who-want-to-drink-while-going-through-immigration line. Pretty much makes whatever form they want moot. Also dovetails nicely with my earlier proposal that all visitors who intend to consume alcohol while in Thailand be made to be tested for their reaction to alcohol while still at the airport. Drunks who get unruly or unsophisticated are put on the plane back home. Good drunks in. Bad drunks out. And that's like 90% of your problem right there.
  2. Does being pregnant somehow make horse vagina better? Asking for a friend.
  3. As I've commented before, this should be for arriving passengers.
  4. Remember the Indians partying on the plane on their way to LOS? Thai immigration should make that mandatory. Make all visitors consume some predetermined amount of booze on the plane so that upon debarkation they can be sorted into the rowdy-when-drunk and chill-when-drunk categories. It's welcome to Thailand for the latter group, and back on the plane for the ride home for the former. Head off a lot of grief that way. And sell quite a bit of booze too I imagine! You're welcome.
  5. Why can't this be in the banking app? Surely the bank can code the simple test of whether or not the account has had the requisite amount of money within it and at all of the right times. So let us use our banking apps to request one of those receipt things and then send it to immigration, or in the alternative, an agent, who we can then pay to do the paperwork and so forth. No need for the trip to the bank. Think of all of the time and aggravation saved. I want this, and that's as good a reason as any to do it.
  6. Fifteen years ago, this wouldn't have been a problem. Fifteen years ago, every interaction I had with my bank here in Thailand was fast, efficient and a sheer delight. I walk into the bank, there is a minimal line if any at all, and I'm on my way in minutes. Today the banks in Thailand look like DMVs. And the stress of these new kinds of regulations only multiplies with the length of the line you're standing and the fear that you'll have to stand in it again tomorrow because you missed the new X, Y or Z requirement.
  7. Worst possible time imaginable to give up weed.
  8. For animals, and from China. Can that really be our only choice?
  9. Can you share a link to ivermectin I can buy here in Thailand?
  10. the last gasp of a dying civilization: be more like us
  11. Imagine coming to Thailand to teach people how to farm.
  12. The first FBAR can be daunting but thereafter it's actually really easy. They're PDF files. So you open last year's and put it in a window on the left and then work on this year's in the window on the right. Then you can really quickly ctrl-c alt-tab ctrl-v your way through it. 800k in the bank means I'm filing. The penalties are something like out of Caligula. And it's literally only five minutes of time to do.
