  1. He's flipped the script back onto Big Tor. Now the new National Police Chief Torsak needs to figure out what to do with Big Joke? Sideline/investigate? Cover-up, Exonerate and give him a plum assignment (although he was already Deputy National Police Chief, with a broad and enviable portfolio, allowing him to dabble). I assume the latter given Big Joke's threat to reveal information about the RTP which would cause it to crumble.
  2. I think the BoT upped their 2024 forecast from 3.8% to 4.4%. The BoT Governor and the new PM had a sit-down yesterday. It is assumed that Srettha wants to dump Sethaput, but that might have additional negative implications. I'm not sure it was wise for the PM to name himself Minister of Finance?
  3. I think the new appointment system inventory will improve over the next 30 days as appointments are flushed via the old system. That said, it looks like there are only 8 - 10 slots per day for the Re-Entry Permit, at the stated period of 40 minutes. It looks like you can only make a SIngle request so not sure how that might affect families. I think a third-party can obtain re-entry permits on your behalf. If you want to guarantee speedy service you could queue up in the chair section (220 - 250 numbers) at 06:00, and probably be out by 09:30? For some reason you can get a Re-entry permit at the airport in a few minutes, but at CW the second step seems to take at least 45 minutes, often a few hours. No clue why?
  4. I think you're going to want to research the type of strains/genetics which meet your requirements re: characteristics (Indica, Sativa, type of high or medical applications). Outdoor here you might want to consider local genetics. Then you need to understand the lifecycle of those genetics. Then estimate the vegetative and flowering cycles, and work backwards to a germination date. I think you want to be in flower/chop mode during the dry season. I think the local target is harvest in November/December. Harvesting in rainy season is probably not the best timing? Local strains, equatorial strains, usually Sativa-dominant with larfy, airy flowers (less subject to rot) are popular. These can take a long time in the flower stage ( 12 - 18 weeks). Indoor offers the most control, and flexibility.
  5. Yeah, my read on the lack of appointments for some activities (ext stay) is that they don't want 2X appointments (from the old and new systems combined) in the near term, and will open up the usual five + daily slots as the new system takes priority over the old system, so over the next 30 days. I could be wrong. The 90-day Appointment section shows quite a few slots, maybe because this is a five minute endeavor (2 minutes for me) and they're not too worried about 2x appointments? I wouldn't have recommended it without checking first. Hopefully they'll sort out any issues soon.
  6. There is a seven (calendar) day grace period, after your Next Report Date, during which you can report in person without being fined. Make an appointment.
  7. I registered for the new TM30 system on Friday. I use a gmail account. registration, change of password email directed to Inbox/Primary. All of the Imm no-reply emails (TM47 reminder/submittal/approval, appointments booked, etc.) arrive in my Primary gmail inbox. I think most folks know to check the spam/promotion folders if they are expecting an email?
  8. You are correct. Alleged rape. More texts from Brand to the young woman he allegedly raped... "I pry myself on being safe and trying to make the right decisions. Obviously this was a bad one. I'm so disappointed." Per the messages, Russell appeared to reply: "You don’t need to get tested. I will make this up to you somehow with live [sic] and kindness. "Not my original idea which was more sex. You’ve been lovely to me and I’m embarrassed by my behaviour. Sorry. X." The outlet reports Brand's US phone number was "verified by multiple sources" in their joint investigation with Dispatches. Yes, he could have been referring to "something else".
  9. Again, I'm just talking about Thailand.... Cannabis has only been legal here (in Thailand) for 15 months. Perhaps I am wrong, I often am, but I doubt that many Thais developed Emphysema or schizophrenia in the last 15 months from smoking Cannabis. The figures I pulled for both (people suffering from Emphysema or Schizophrenia) were from 2019. I'll stipulate that some who are predisposed to schizophrenia may be negatively impacted by consuming Cannabis, and I would strongly recommend that they not consume it. I'll stipulate that young people, aged up to twenty should not consume Cannabis. I'm not deflecting from the dangers of Cannabis, but I'd submit the vaping culture here is much more harmful, especially in the 18-30 age group. I just don't know how safe all those products are, I see them everywhere. If they were tested and approved I'd be more supportive of that habit. I have no dog in this hunt, other than a general respect for other adults' freedom and ability to make their own lifestyle choices. I went 35 years without consuming cannabis (random/periodic drug testing), and have not consumed it here since before Songkhran.
  10. It is possible to consume Cannabis without combustion... Dry Herb Vaporizer Extracted Oil Water Soluble Powder If Cannabis is so bad why do you support Medical Cannabis? I think you've said you do previously, but maybe I'm mistaken.
  11. I was talking about Thailand. I mean that's what we're discussing, right? The hundreds of thousands of people here (in Thailand) with Emphysema did not contract it from smoking cannabis. And the tens of thousands of people here (in Thailand) suffering from schizophrenia did not get this condition from smoking Cannabis.
  12. Yes, I think Emphysema (COPD) is a major health issue here, obviously unrelated to cannabis use. Hopefully the Minister of Public Health will put an end to Recreational Use of Tobacco. Oh, and figure out a way to stop the annual burning season. Also a problem here, and unrelated to Cannabis use. I'm sure the Minister of Public Health will be rolling out treatments for those affected.
  13. Excellent. That part seems automated to me, so not indicative of much? Your reporting office is CW/Bangkok right? Can you follow up if/when you receive the Approved (or Rejected) email. I don't recall a recent (last ~ 4 weeks) reply from CW reported here, or on FB. I know mine was not processed, and when I filed in person I was told that there was a "computer error", and "System no work", by the processing person at desk B66. Yes, other offices seem capable of approving online filings. Maybe these new pages and systems https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/onlineservice-and-publicguide/ will address this issue? Although the link from that page just goes to the existing front end.
  14. why the allegations took so long to surface Not exactly rocket science... Boy Scouts Catholic Church Tuskegee Study Forced Sterilization and Eugenics of Native Americans Trump/Ms. Carroll Danny Masterson Harvey Weinstein Roger Ailes Bill O'Reilly Bill Cosby R. Kelly I could go on for pages. . . It takes time for atrocities to be revealed. Famous people and organizations have all the power, their victims have none. It takes a while for their to be balance. I think Mr. Brand apologized, by text, to at least one of his victims after he raped her. "I'm sorry. That was crazy and selfish," he penned, according to text messages from Brand's number, verified by The Times. He reportedly continued: "I hope you can forgive me, I know that you're a lovely person.
  15. https://tm47.immigration.go.th/tm47/#/login But your posts are confusing, to me anyway, are you trying to make an appointment to go in person and file a TM47 (90 day report)? Or are you trying to file a TM 47 on line? Online appointment entry point for CW/Bangkok: https://gov.immigration1.queueonline.net/appointment/login.html?v27
  16. In the days immediately following Thaksin's return we heard many, many details of his health issues. "heart and lung, four underlying issues", etc. But now, all of sudden his privacy is used to cover up this sham. They truly think the masses are buffaloes, Interestingly he looked quite chipper on his G650 in flight from SIN.
  17. Fastest Resurrection ever. I think his threat to burn down the RTP https://aseannow.com/topic/1307916-secrets-and-integrity/ was legit and shook the foundation on which the RTP's house of cards rests.
  18. Thank you. With the old system I think the Search criteria was limited to 7 days. The new system seems to allow for broader searches.
  19. After the TM30 kerfuffle ~ four years ago, Immigration officials stated that you do not have to refile a TM30 if you are returning to your "permanent" address of record as so stated in a previous TM30, or in other records filed as part of your status/permission to stay. Based on recent experiences at CW (Bangkok) I can state that my TM30 (from 2/17/20 - Int'l return, and after another international return and several domestic hotel stays) remains valid and acceptable for Imm/CW (TM7, TM8, TM47, Certificate of Residence). As with all things here, YMMV.
  20. Using the new site, and after you have filed/saved/uploaded a TM30 for an individual, how do you locate that record in order to print, let's say, a screen grab? With the "old" system you could search for an existing record by date, then do a screen grab and print. And does anyone know where Immigration stands on the need to re-file a current (done on the "old" system) TM30?
  21. I didn't say they were the same, just that republicans/conservatives said Homosexuality was a mental disorder. The same thing they are saying about gender fluidity. Thank you Doctor for your expert opinion. "Certainly".
  22. I don't want to say what the rumor is re: the amount.
  23. Rumor is that he needed the time to mend fences, and that that has been done. He's back.
  24. Rumors swirling that there has been a Happy Ending to this conflagration.
  25. "None of the witnesses today were 'fact witnesses'. Neil Cavuto Fox News. Fox News Host Neil Cavuto agree shared this sentiment on his show today: "I don’t know what was achieved over these last six-plus hours... none of the expert witnesses today presented yet any proof for impeachment." Oof. https://twitter.com/RpsAgainstTrump/status/1707502708121338167
