  1. He did say, "I have been doing visa extensions for 20 years at Nonthaburi"
  2. Or they could have police actually work and stand on the sidewalks and give out tickets.
  3. Ordering stuff that comes from china is more problematic than ever. Lots of sellers there are sending completely different/worthless items than what you ordered. The last thing that happened to me was I ordered 3 bags of siliphos. They only sent one. I told Lazada. They said I needed to return it to get credit. I returned it. Then Lazada only gave me credit for the 1 bag because that is all I returned. I had to get ahold of them again and explain that I can not return something that was never sent to me. Finally they are giving me a refund back on the other 2 bags.
  4. I guess they plan on locking people up there too...
  5. Humans in general love violence.
  6. They look like military camouflage uniforms. I doubt they will use them on duty. Also I believe they are required to have tight fitting uniforms. So having comfortable ones is probably out of the question.
  7. I stayed there a few months ago for a friends wedding. Other than the wedding party there were not many people staying there. People mostly go there to eat at their restaurant. I personally don't think the food is very good. The resort has a huge pool but it was filthy. I wouldn't swim in it. Anyway the kitchen is in the bottom floor below those rooms. So perhaps other gas cylinders went off when the initial one exploded.
  8. Everything he said is how the typical Thai male thinks and then some.
  9. You can order stuff from amazon.co.uk (for the voltage compatability)
  10. And they think people will be more likely to pay the higher fines when they already aren't paying the 500 baht fines?
  11. They tried to get a photo of people pointing at it but couldn't find anything to point at.
  12. Immigration is part of the police department. So no matter who shows up they are police.
  13. The reason banks push insurance so much is because they are given quotas to meet by the heads of the bank. They probably see foreigners are more likely to be able to afford the insurance. Anyway Immigration should have some procedure to give you a letter for the bank telling them you need a Thai bank account.
  14. Is there a long stay senior tourist visa?
  15. From the linked article, " The doors were completed with locks on the outer side as well. The victims insisted that the hotel did not inform them about the secret doors during check-in. The hotel owner claimed that he installed secret doors for mistresses to escape from their lovers’ partners." So the doors were locked from the outside but were to allow people on the inside to escape. Makes sense. To the police anyway.
  16. Funny. I live in Ratchaburi which borders Myanmar and didn't feel anything. But no real highrises here either.
  17. No matter what they shouldn't be allowed to beat someone unless they start fighting first. They should be trained to detain them and call the police.
  18. So the mother was aware it was gaing on all this time and did nothing. She should be brought up on charges too.
  19. mamuang khu - a pair of mangoes. Older women give you 2 payapas...
