Thks, will give it a try later as it is showing the down for maintenance window again.

Since the immigration computer snafu earlier this week, has anyone received their updated tm47 already acknowledged by Immigration office as received already?

Well, last time the pre-US got upset with the British tea it resulted in a war and the birth of the US.

you could probably make a bet on who is buying up that land that will be used for all the passages.

You in the eu uk weren't telling the US to stay out of their attack by the Gemans!

Yeah but look how rich he got for all his fumbling!

possibly

depends if it is caused by bacteria or virus. That is why a dr's visit is best - they take a swab a shortly there after they will know the cause and thus the proper medicine. Using antibiotics for virus is futile and could lessen the effects of the antibiotics in the future as we are in such a period today.

what about taxes too, as the LTR is set up for "rich pensioners " sorta like the US, used to be prior to Reagan, the rich got hammered for tax dollars but he dropped them down into the same arena as the less wealthy workers. That is why the republicans continue to be supported so strongly by the rich. Meanwhile the numbers of those fleeing that party are reportedly growing due to other policies and beliefs. I could never be a democrat, but dropped fm the republicans and went independent...maybe it is time for a 3rd party with power to elect and not just defeat one of the other two party candidates.

well I am sure Europe supported the US help in WWII or you all would be speaking German only

I got my regular notice that mine was due, so the next day, 15th b4 the date due, and tried to log on but it said the site was down temporarily for 3-6 hours so waited til the afternoon and tried again, got through immediately filled in what needed filled in checked all other items correct and sent it in and within hours got a message from immigration that it had been accepted. just awaiting the next due date message. Sure beats having to make a trip to the immigration office...now if we could just do a yearly update on line too, and no 90-day reports life even with taxes is great.

sometimes a sore throat is a sign of dehydration, sometime like L.lace it is something else. I just read that a horrible cough is going around in the US that many folks can't get rid of. Local pharmas gladly give you some drugs after explaining about the sore throat. Many "home" remedies too...real (not fake) honey, black pepper and sugar melt in your mouth and swallow slowly as it coats the throat....just go see a doctor though if it doesn't go away...maybe need tonsils removed.

can also just show a Thai driver's license for photo id also...keep hearing most people say that they have NEVER used it.

Yeah ask the regular Afghanis - those everyday workers, women students etc, if it is better now that the US soldiers left and the Taliban and ISIS are running things? One of the latest laws - only a female doctor can examine an Afghani woman yet Aghani women are not allowed to go to school even -how can they become a doctor to check on the females?

yeah all those religious leaders that fled IRAN when the SHah was there, even though towards his leaving in '79, life had changed tremendously for a Muslim state. Women wore western fashions, teens listened to western music, females were allowed to go to all levels of school including government paid for college and women could become just about anything as far as a career went. Then, the Muslim Imams in France zoomed back into the country and SLAM BAM maam get out of school cover your head and body all the time. Same thing for Afghanistan, let an exile be the one the US supported to become the leader - crooked as all get out, even stole a planeload of US cash as he story goes. He sure didn't unite the different warlords against the rebels.

One can also check "accuweather (your location) for air quality at the central office (your location) I check each day and to date, the readings are fairly close to what my personal monitor says. Though in the past, I heard that one central reading area had a local fire truck come and spray the area near the monitor for half an hour. Their readings were always a lot lower than that of my monitor.

lazada and I'm sure shoppee too have many monitors for sale. Some are large, some have multigases readings, some are small enough to carry with one when jogging or walking outside. some only measure the 2.5 microns. check them out and see if any meet your needs/requirements.

one is not limited to 65k oonly per month, just a minimum of 65k each and every month of the 12 months.

Well, if your bank is based in one of the signatories of the OECD agreement in July of last year, that is exactly what HSBC will be required to do..BTW China was a signatory of that agreement too.

The LTR visa, unlike other visas prohibits tax collection by the Thai government from the holder due to Royal Decree. I do not agree that if the govt changes the law, that it will affect the holder of the LTR. If the govt could and did change that law, then believe they would probably wipe out the DTA's also. But these are my opinion only and there are too few people who really have any idea what is going to happen.

Lazada and probably shoppee both have all kinds of measuring widgets, cheap and/or expensive - can check to see what gets measure when you turn it on. Today air is horrible here in BKK.

And what pray tell were the "certain criterias'?

because the US politicians need to fill their re-election chests with more and more donations from China

yeah I was always taught for chapped lips, try horse crap, rub some on your lips and you will stop licking them which causes the chapped lips. I never tried it but just thinking about it taught me a "valuable" lesson. One never really knows when such a recommendation could or could not be valuable.

Yeah and maybe have to take out aloand to pay that 500 baht fine! for that amount, I am sure there are probably folks willing to disobey the signs anyway. Just my opinion!
