Does the 'digital' meter has feature to prevent export? newer TOU meter seem to be all digital now

on topic of divergent use/context and etymology the bus in colloquial thai is รถเมล์ from the time the service used to carry postal mail เรือเมล์ for boats were also used รถเมล์ is for regular intra-city service and รถทัวร์ is for inter-city coaches that doesn't have tour guide service on board even as previously discussed in this thread. วิน มอเตอร์ไซค์ has its etymological root in horseracing terms from the win/place the phrase in thai is เข้าวิน เข้าเพลส which probably became associated with victory and good luck and when motorcycle taxi rank began to develop, when the came 'home' to the rank they might have played with announcing the word เข้าวิน and then the วิน became used to denote a place where service like motorcycle or van for hire congregate

Who's selling the 'new' rooms developer or other people who originally bought in? It'd only be concerning if the developer still hold a lot of unsold rooms. If the people paying the mortgages, and ultimately once they got repossessed, the bank, owns the rooms, not the developers, the condo fees will still be paid so it'll keep running If the developers still hold a lot of room, that also give them a lot of power in the condo meeting to vote things their way too If the condo were sold to the Chinese back during the boom years, it's understandable that it'll be empty now, but there's also issue with some creative mortgaging by thais getting mortgage for way over value of the room to take home the cash difference and sell on to the Chinese, that could blow up if the Chinese owner decided to be delinquent since they haven't been back in years

What's her travel history, has she shown a pattern of travelling abroad and returning? will she be applying on a fresh clean passport? First time traveler with clean passport is not looked on favorably, if she has not, take her somewhere thais can get in without visas to have some entry/exit stamps in her passports first. having your relatives with accommodation counts as significant ties or reason enough for her to be able to 'extend' her stay in the UK so it could count against her in some case especially with your support. She might stand a better chance booking a holiday with guided tour groups with other thais, but then her source of funds from you needs to be explained. It can be done, but you need to be aware of potential questions or red flags raised and provide supporting evidence in anticipation,

Big holiday like Songkran sees even petrol station packed with queues on certain routes, with limited DC quick charge spots, longer ranged plug in hybrids makes sense only for some people. The H6 PHEV almost have enough real world range to last most people's monday-friday commute without needing to switch to petrol, but if you managed to fit your lifestyle around keeping it in EV mode, charging overnight if you live in a house that can manage it, or public charger every couple of days if you live in a condo without charging spot... then you won't be able to enjoy the less maintenance/servicing of a pure EV, sure the scheduled serviced plan is included, but there's also higher initial cost of the PHEV If you are committed enough to keep the PHEV in EV mode only for most of your use, it might be cheaper to get a proper EV and rent ICE cars for the trip upcountry. But if you want to fil and forget and just use whatever's convenient, without having to plan your life around charging, then PHEV will let you enjoy the savings from being an EV for sure

Some Day like Mother's or Father's day are not 'dry' days but some bars (usually with lady drinks and barfines) close out of respect. Actual bars and restaurant remain open in those case

Why some are blaming Thai government? Last time it was Paypal's lawyer overly broad interpretation of the law that's lead to their mess in requiring business registration to receive payments that they had to backtrack out of And now? you'd give them the benefit of the doubt by blaming it on Thai Government requirements again?

Better ones might be able to waive their commission or 'block charge' for bullions if you buy over a certain amount from them (>20 baht weight 'standard bullions' weight) non Thai gold coins are available too if you intend to sell them overseas but you need to ask in advance

The QR system used by most Thai bank is called PromptPay, they can pay each other via QR code, mobile phone number or their national ID no. Truemoney is their own thing, you can't scan or send money to Prompt Pay account from True Money, once you put money in True Wallet, you can't take the money back out by transferring back to your bank or via prompt pay without incurring fees Vendors that accept Truemoney will need to have true money edc terminal to accept true money as oppose to just any bank account for QR PromptPay If you want a separate wallet and not your usual banking app to load money in and pay vendors QR PromptPay from, There's 'Dolfin' app that can do that

อ้าว is oh! surprised to see you

looks like a half phased 120v, the difference between the the two household nema plug could be 240v, or you could get L14-30male plug and wire it for 240v

All these drunkheads sitting in front of 7-11 drinking leos in open daylight never bothered you before? You can't even walk to the next block and there's another 7-11 selling more alcohol, there's even mom and pop store in on the action too, and in restaurants, they're serving them with meals even There's also alcohol specific place call 'bars' where you only go there to get drunk! the horrors!

That's fair though, without the passport, anyone who knew your phone number could have redeemed your points instead of you

So instead of domestic split type wall air-conditioner, there's portable air con unit, they handily come with duct that's probably useful to pipe into tents, although this type of aircon is less efficient, it could cost less than to cool the whole room if you could just cool the smaller area of the tent Anyone has experience with ducting airconditioner directly into grow tents?

they don't even sell medicine, most are terpene or leaf infused drinks

I think some Big C do ask for Thai ID when buying big-ticket things like TVs, this is a managers' discretion thing that's probably against the terms of accepting credit cards to begin with

Even a Honda Wave with 17" rims are markedly more stable than the belt driven scooters like the Clicks

but you're be bothered enough to post a reply to a thread about it? I understand not wasting the salesperson time, maybe he's butthurt he had to make an effort to move up from playing on his phone or whatever I'd just not buy my next car from that dealership, or even if the service department dare say that to anyone they'd know that my next service will be somewhere else

often the roads come later, and further subdivisions just get the slashes meaning what was once a plot system is incomprehensible from the street frontage, often they'd renumber to fix this

crackdown on illegal street vendors who set up shops on the sidewalk without paying rent or taxes at the moment from Nana to Asoke by the Wattana Khet administration

Mobile or Fixed ie Fibre/VDSL? Mobile AIS will throttle things like Bittorrent heavily but not on their fibre service

The "Dtac Call' will also work with data sim from local carrier in Europe, so if you can get a cheaper data plan locally, put that sim in your phone and still make/receives calls and sms from Thailand on the Dtac Call app But make sure to set up the Dtac Call app while still in Thailand, it'd need to receive sms on your sim to confirm ownership of your number

The 'broken down' and can't be afforded to fix excuse seems fishy most of the newer police vehicle is rented/leased for much more than the owning outright cost of the vehicle, servicing and repairs are the responsibility of the lease company,

if you have wifi calling on your phone or download the 'dtac call' app, and wifi access in Europe, you can avoid roaming charge and still receive and call Thailand as if you're still local in Thailand The Dtac call app will work over non-wifi mobile internet too, so you can get a data roaming package and make all your calls through the app If you expect to have wifi at all your stay, and you don't need data or access Thai sms, calls while on the move, just get the Dtac Call app or setup wifi calling on your phone with no need to buy roaming package
