This is disturbing news .

Most of these children will have been born in Thailand, Their Mothers are likely daughters of stateless Mothers.

Thailand is not , when compared to others , a poor country .......

Renewed effort should be made to solve the problem of "Statelessness" and to at least provide basic health care (including routine vaccination) to children who did not ask to be born "stateless"

I sincerely hope the Government will take urgent steps toward resolving this issue.

Noise? What noise ?

No noise here.

I do not live in the boonies and if I wish to experience noise I have to travel for 10 minutes!

If the low slung cables causes you anxiety or if they really do present a public safety threat inform the Tassaban !

When calling the Tessaban be sure to use your best Thai to explain the problem or get a real Thai person to make the report.

Seems we have established that those shouting ""troll , fraud, a charlatan and a quack,"" were correct in their assessment .

However, one last chance !

Explain in simple English exactly what the whole of that PubMed article ACTUALLY said and what its authors conclusions were.

Holy, we have another one!

Instead of repeating simple English language, I encourage you to go buy (because you evidently do not own one) a English dictionary, and start from the beginning of the article. I don`t mean to be patronizing, but if you went out of your trailer, took the bus to the nearest library, maybe they would lend you one for free. If that is not a friendly advice, I don`t know what is.

Seems we have established that those shouting ""troll , fraud, a charlatan and a quack,"" were correct in their assessment .

Friendly advice would be for you to quite this nonsense !

Present your "evidence" to a lawyer and take the case to court.

BritTim - To be fair I think that given that these potential rules have been mooted since the summer of last year I suspect that many have used this period to address their overstay; certainly I took the hint and dealt with it. For those who haven't yet it would be somewhat of a gamble to assume that a period of grace may be allowed. If Art 44 is invoked then normal protocols of notice in the gazette etc are not necessarily guaranteed..My experience is that once the overstay has been cleared, even ones that are extremely long, immigration seems to consider the matter as closed. If those blacklisting rules do get introduced it will be a entirely different ball game so better to deal with it now while this window of opportunity still clearly exists.

glio - I agree with you that anyone on overstay now should clear it up without delay. The new penalties could certainly be introduced with virtually no notice. I said a grace period would be smart, not that there would be one.

However, some will hope for the best until faced with an ultimatum. Further, those who do not read ThaiVisa and who live in the sticks may not be aware of the pending changes. I would give these people a well publicized choice:

• Do nothing and face severe consequences once the grace period ends
• Leave, paying the find but avoiding blacklisting. This would allow people married here with limited funds to scrape together 30,000 baht to go to Savannakhet for a multi entry Non-O.
• Leave with no fine but being blacklisted. This would provide a way out for some indigent individuals, trapped here because they do not have enough money, to leave.

The carrot and the stick usually works better than either in isolation.

Just a couple of questions ........

1. Why would someone need 30,000 Bht to obtain a multi entry non "O" visa, based on marriage, from Savannakhet ?

2. How would a person "without enough money" afford a flight out ?

Despite the resistance from the pharmaceutical industry this quite recent study was published. We know now that antibiotics have trouble killing this bacteria. In case you can`t be bothered with reading the whole study I quote: "AgNP type 1 (particle mean size of 36 nm) exhibited higher antibacterial activity for both pathogen strains compared to data for commercial antibiotic."

For those of you that did not pay attention in class, AgNP means "silver nano particles."

To most of you, I apologize coming on a little hard, but after being called "troll a fraud, a charlatan and a quack," I don`t really give a "quack" what they think. This is the second PubMed article in this tread, but it`s obvious that some people are here only to pick a fight. Don`t get me wrong, I love a good discussion. I just hate ingrown stubbornness and stupidity.

You clearly have little or no knowledge about what that paper describes.

How many people (patients) where involved in the study ? How many were " cured" ? Was "colloidal silver" involved in the study ?

Stop posting stuff you do not understand !

I can only repeat myself; some people are here only to pick a fight.

Instead of accusing others of "picking a fight "" why not just answer the simple questions posed?

I can only repeat ..........STOP posting stuff you do not understand !

AgNP actually means "Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner!

Acne is not a communicable disease. You cannot and will not "infect" your baby.

If you believe the acne has worsened then you should consult a Dermatologist rather than seeking a "magic" cure here.

The link contains useful information some of which you may be aware of.

http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/acne/basics/definition/con-20020580

Read the link.

If you want advice about a Dermatologist then indicate where you are living and someone will provide a recommendation.

You are suffering from a fundamental misunderstanding of how antibiotics work. You won't take CS and you don't know if there is any benefit, but "millions of people" swear by it. I know hundreds of people, none who profess to take colloidal silver.

... and probably hundreds more who don't speak either Portuguese or Swahili. None of which has any bearing on the matter at hand.

As for the way antibiotics work, if you are referring to "competitive inhibition,"although I don't have a degree in microbiology, I have taken several semesters of it at the undergraduate level. Did you have a specific question in mind? Referencing Colloidal Silver, you can find similar action at the cellular level, if that helps you any.

But that's neither here nor there. There is no valid proof that CS doesn't work when taken orally, and no replicated scientific proof that it does. What we are left with is a group of people who are satisfied with the results, a group of people who don't believe them, and a third group of people who really don't care one way or the other.

The Doctor / Scientist who discovered/proved the cure for Helicobacter pylori did so by deliberately infecting himself , becoming sick and then curing himself with treatment he hypothesised would be effective.

Are you brave?

Will you willingly infect yourself with a pathogenic organism , become ill, and then prove that a combination of quackery and "colloidal silver" will effect a "cure" ?

The experiment would of course be carried out in a controlled scientific manner.

There are plenty of schools offering visas to study Thai cooking / Thai boxing etc

I would imagine they're not going to ask you to make them a noodlesoup in a crowded immigration office so these "skills" would be pretty hard to test....

Please PM me with a list of "schools" providing cooking or boxing education registered with the MOE which offer to support application for an ED visa .

Your going to rent it out , when your away, good luck ,

The OP, if I remember correctly, has to leave quite frequently in order to secure back to back tourist visas.

He will now have to leave more frequently as double entry tourist visas are no longer available.

if Pattaya is not a quality destination, tell me why Amari hotel is fully booked as well the Marriott.

in my point of view, I think there are just too many crap hotels and not enough nice quality hotels.

I m ready to spend even more than 3 millions bahts for a top class room managed by a hotel. I would like a ROI of 5 percent at least

Really ?

Did you not , at one time , praise the "quality" of "cheap charlie" accommodation in Laos.

Apologies if I am mistaken

In addition to the form you will need

1. A photograph

2. Copy of you passport data page

3. Copies of the visa and entry stamp

4. Copy of the departure card

5 Evidence of a local Phuket address.

There is an immigration office in Phang Nga

Standard bog Internet posts for ME and typical large agency like Aeon in Japan.

I've already posted about all I wish to about myself in a forum for this. If you have something relevant to report, I'd appreciate it.

Why, are you hiring?

Would that not be, to whom?

I note you are destined for "great things" in the ME or Japan they will love a "whom"

Thanks for all the answers guys !

To clarify my situation : i want to long term visa to stay in Thailand for one year and i'm serious about wanting to learn so i'm trying two kill two birds with one stone.

Then in one year i plan, as one poster suggested, to go to China directlty to learn there.

@T100 : What do you suggest i should do, then ?

@timmyp : they also test people learning japanese or chinese ? How would they know if they're good ot not ? (i mean, i can understand thai tests but for the rest..)

Kid yourself not.

There are many Chinese/Thai people who speak fluent "Chinese" .

The only "long term" visa you might get is a multi entry Ed visa which you would have to obtain, with the correct school supplied paperwork, from the Thai Embassy in your own country.

Another rumour for the treadmill..... but my source on this is pretty good.

The current cap on overstay fines, 20,000 baht, will end 10th December...... no higher cap was mentioned. So anything over 40 days, you will be paying more...

And if you are caught, and cannot pay, you will be getting locked up.

Perhaps another flushing attempt..... like the subject of this old thread.

An unconfirmed bar stool rumour ?

Why post this nonsense ?

He said his source is pretty good. Could be some high official in immigration.

Those who spread rumour ALWAYS claim to have "a pretty good " source !

That is just code for drunken bar stool gossip !

And if you don't know how to fry real spuds, you end up with a disgusting gluten free soggy mess, not crisp "chip" as they should be.

The frozen chips are precooked and are very tolerant to improper cooking oil temperatures and usually come out crisp.

Those who cannot cook real chips (fries) are clearly restricted to buying expensive plastic bags stuffed with "precooked" junk .

And simply cutting them up and deep-frying them is certainly not the correct way to make fries, at least according to most professional chefs. Fries need to be double or triple cooked, and freezing or chilling the fries before cooking is pretty much de rigueur now.

Must remember to tell the "fish &chip" shop owner at home that he should be chilling/freezing the chips before cooking them 3 times !

Twaddling nonsense he will reply !

What skills and experience can you offer.

No problem here !

Put it this way, no language school students are getting 12 month extensions for their visas. A three month extension, each time they go, is the best they can hope for. That's not the case with an ED visa from a university, where 12 month extensions are regularly issued. Why do you think that is?

Nothing has changed and Universities do not issue Ed visas !

Informal education sector "students" have never been been able to obtain anything other than a 90 day extension.

" side walks" ?

Only in some North American places I believe !

Quite a few people with ED visas from (various) language schools have only been getting one month extensions. Immigration think that most language schools are just falang visa mills.

" Immigration think that most language schools are just falang visa mills. "

Really ?

MOST language schools anywhere in Thailand ?
