This have to be the first of the "what they were thinking" item of the new year....

Can you, in anyway, logic or reasons, justify the rape, torture, burning and murdering of dozens of young Israeli women? This type of behaviour was practiced by the middle ages armies, the Mongols and the Barbarians, are the Palestinians following suite? One can understand a fight for a "just cause" but to dehumanise and degrade young women out of revenge and hatred?...

Yo Andre, you're not starting the year on the right footing, even an innocent Thank you get you all riled up bringing all sorts of BS, take it easy son, it's only a platform to air our thought here and if its too much for you and you read things that are not there, well, you know what to do yes?...

China is doing what they did in the electronic revolution 30 years or so ago, better looking, shinier and cheaper but crappy quality, looks like they have learned a thing or two since marketing new cars...

I stand corrected but the spirit of my post was to show thanks and gratitude to "ASEANNow", I don't know about others but i get a lot of comfort, information and pleasure out of being active on this forum...

To be honest with you, really, really honest? no one in Oz like those reg heads, Arabs, sub continent and the multitude of jetsam and flotsam that populated Australia in the last ten years, Aussies love their country just as it was, but with a Labour's Albanese government being a staunch righty not much else can done, now go ahead and call me what you like but i know how many in Australia now feels...

Not sure where you get your information from but I beg to differ as i have just renewed my Non-o retirement visa at CW where the details in my post were reaffirmed to me...

Why, what is wrong with the tile? Is the grammar incorrect, or the intended recipients are wrong? please be more succinct otherwise it will lead me to believe that you're trying to take the mickey out of me...

No i wasn't, but I'm not sure as to what i was joking about you meant? about the Modes or the members? either way, they are all deserved thanks and appreciations, at least mine, not sure about the others...

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the owners of this site for providing us all with a valuable platform to share, give and receive, a place where we learn a lot, ask for advise and help others, a place where we argue, vent and agree to disagree, Many thanks to the Mods for keeping this site civil and orderly, and of course to all the members on both sides of the divide...

No requirement for health insurance, ( not yet anyway) just the 800k in the bank 2 months prior to asking for the visa and 3 months after the issuing the visa, 400k monthly average in the past 12 months of your bank account and a whole pile of documents, bank statements and copies of everything, you can have an agent to do it for you for the cost of about 12-15,000 baht or do it yourself if you have the energy to spend a few hours at the Immigration office, I'm sure that other members will even contribute more to this subject...

The so called peace with Jordan and Egypt is just that a piece of paper and more of the cessation of hostilities agreement, you have Lebanon who allowed Iran to set up a large terrorist base on the borders with Israel, you have Syria who has the same as well as Russian and Iranian 'advisers' you have the hornet nests of Gaza and the west bank where 80% of the Palestinians there has support and approval of Hamas deeds, and that the so called Palestinian authorities who are zero in trying to control the populations there...

Not your business because you're not a starving dirt poor Thai while your PM is a billionaire, and envious? I don't write for my own sake you know, i see many others starving and with no roof over their heads who can benefit from a little kindness and benevolence, but again. he's ONLY the PM in this country and it's not his business to help his people...

Even if you're right, i would expect the PM, the leader of the of a poor nation to perhaps, just perhaps, share a little, very little of his enormous wealth with those who are much, much poorer, less fortunate than him, but that is out of the question right?...

Let's put this way: Israel is surrounded with enemies, and only of recent times, there are 1.8 billion Muslims in the world that has no love lost is Israel and if one day all the Jews in the wold will be gone ( not to mention that others, non Muslims, will be just as happy, some even in this forum) Israel now has to deals with Gaza, West bank, Syria, Hezbollah, the Huties, and of course Iran, and the world opinions, so here's the thing, despite what the world say, Israel isn't going anywhere any time soon, not while the last Jew/Israeli is standing...

Not sure whether discussing IPTV content is allowed here, but i would like to hear members experience and recommendations for ITPV streaming contents, i get mine from a place in China, Live TV, Movies and TV series by the 10th of thousands from many countries around the world for only like less that a 100 baht a year, not the most stable streaming but this is all i have for now...

I think you're not up to date, I'm pretty sure the number of dead babies is well over 8,200, that war started under his command and orders knowing full well the damages in loss of lives, homes and cities would be and he STILL, has chosen to go ahead... And knowing that his days are numbered, he prefers to continue to see his people suffering ignoring the facts that he's fighting a lost cause...

Having to run the visa gauntlets so many times so far, i can tell you that the system has to get better, just like they did with the arrival cards, entering and leaving the country, so is the mess in the IMMG. department has to be streamlined, where's one has to present a mountain of documents and evidences, wait for hours while your documents and passport goes from desk to desk and a buckets of ink is stamped on them, I have waited over an hour just for the re-entry stamp the other day and that on top of the 3 hours for the non-o permit...

So one person Yihia Sinwar, has taken it upon himself to sacrifice 10 of thousands of Palestinians just to prove a point and to make the world see the so called the plight of the Palestinians? who is he? God? Muhammad? and how many more lives of babies he's will to continue to sacrifice? dose he have a number in minds of the sky is the limit while knowing full well that the world is as hypocrite as it used to from time in memorial, and that NOTHING will stop Israel from fighting and defending it's homeland...

AND here's another eye opener some will choose to not 'take it seriously', it's about the horrific tale of an Israel mother of 2 who was kidnapped and raped my Hamas and Palestinian civilians: "How Hamas weaponized sexual violence"... ( and maybe some of you will understand the reason for Israel's resolves to wipe out Hamas) https://www.theage.com.au/world/middle-east/how-hamas-weaponised-sexual-violence-20231230-p5eua9.html

After 35 years living in this country, the word 'impossible' only pop up when you want something done and you're told 'Mai Dai' only to become Possible when you pay up, do i need to elaborate here?...

Hamas started an urban war against a regular army figuring they can beat the IDF with their human shields, hostages and tunnels, Hamas started a war and Israel will finish until the last Hamas standing, Hamas top leader Yahya Sinwar is not willing to negotiate a ceasefire unless Israel will stop it's campaign and retreat completely, he knows that his days and other Hamas leadership are numbered, Here is an eye opener article written by John Bolton: "The West may now have no option but to attack Iran" https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/12/28/the-west-may-now-have-no-option-but-to-attack-iran/

I think that this kind of wealth goes well beyond cheating on your taxes, one need to be really "crafty" (putting it mildly) to have such wealth...

At least a rooster is useful in fertilizing chickens and a rooster was the only bird that told people back than that is't time to wake up where the Koel bird is nothing but a bother and a nuisance...

Good question, i too was wondering the same seeing those piles and piles of documents at CW the other day, funny enough, they had an issue with this year's Non-0 renewal so they went to pulled out last year's one, so go figure...
