  1. Try this one, HP Thailand. https://www.hpe.com/asia_pac/en/contact-hpe-thailand.html
  2. Try BNH (Bangkok Nursing Hospital, Convent Road), Dr Nopparat. Chief of Cardio Metabolic Dept. Been my Dr several years. I have had good doctors in the USA, but he outshines them all.
  3. Ford has a 10 year contract to support Chevrolets. Parts are readily available, see https://www.gpautoparts.co.th/en/products-service-2/after-market-2/ac-delco-products-2/. After reading other comments I have to add a little. Toyota is the top selling brand with good record of their maintenance services. Honda a close second. In my time here I have purchased four 4 door Colorado pick ups. Very happy with all of them.
  4. Could it be a CATON (not sure of spelling) tree? Had a very large one in my yard some years back. When ready, 100's of CATON would fall every night. They often broke open from the fall and by early morning would be covered by red ants. Very messy and a daily chore to clean them up and dispose of the fruit.
  5. I have an Android box that has worked perfectly for months. No buffering. Service is NT (old TOT). But, I was getting an upgrade to the box yesterday (I had not watched TV in several days) and was told to expect possible major buffering because a major communications cable had been severed and will be sometime before repairs are completed. For the first time last night I did have severe buffering. Maybe every 30 seconds it would be buffering 10-15 seconds. Hope whatever the problem is that it will be fixed soon.
  6. Not sure how this short write up succeeded in any of the following. "This article delves into the intricacies of this new tax tango, offering a roadmap for expats to navigate the complexities and unlock potential strategies to secure their financial future in the Land of Smiles."
  7. The question first should be whether your credit card company would permit it. And, remember that a 3% or greater charge is often added here to purchase many things using a credit card. Finally, does your credit card charge a foreign transaction fee, typically 3%? I have 2 cards that do and 1 that does not.
  8. Some time ago there was a news article saying that in some provinces as long as the executor is named in the Will, he/she could probate the Will without having to go to the courts for permission. They unfortunately did not name the provinces. Would like to hear more on this is anyone has something helpful to add.
  9. Personally, I hate being videoed or photographed without my permission. There are several possible reasons one could feel this way. A person could be under threat of bodily harm if his/her location were revealed. Another happened to a friend of mine years ago. He was photographed at NANA Plaza in Bangkok and years later his photo was published in a popular women's magazine along with an article about prostitution in Thailand.
  10. I assume depending on your account balance, Fidelity Brokerage does international wire transfers at no charge to my Bangkok Bank USD account. I prefer to have the dollars here to exchange at times the rates are favorable. The account also earns interest. Doesn't your credit union do wire transfers overseas?
  11. It is hard for me to comprehend the logic behind some actions being taken to improve the Thai economy. Hardest to understand is the proposed taxing of money imported by foreigners and even Thais working remotely that is slated to begin 1 January. Many foreigners import many thousands of dollars and other currencies annually that are mostly spent locally thus improving local economies. Thai wives, girlfriends often with children, close members of their families and many others plus numerous local charities are supported with foreigners' monies. What will happen to these people when the foreigner's income is heavily taxed. The only thing I see happening is that far fewer people who would normally spend many thousands and 10's of thousands of dollars every year living here for the rest of their lives will even think of Thailand as a place to retire and spend their hard-earned money.
  12. Never heard of it? What planet have you been living on. Have you had your head buried in the sand? Major topic for many weeks. Starts i Jan2024.
  13. 29 days in February in 2024. The 90 days is counted starting on the day you do the report, not the day after. And, the form you will receive says when to report again. Always better to be 2-3 days early. In your example, your 1st 90 day report would be due 30 March,
  14. I have a friend in the USA that was in Thailand during Vietnam in the mid 70,s. He did not practice safe sex. In 2010 his wife came up with venereal warts. Having both been faithful throughout their marriage they could not understand how this could happen. Both went to see a doctor and it was explained that venereal warts and possibly some other STD's can remain latent for years and just appear for no apparent reason. Marriage survived.
