very helpful.... you must of been a wonderful motivational speaker at one time in your career

Hi Retired a while back, and been real heavy into python programming language ( self taught after retirement ) - can get any data set I want ie 2500 ETF tickers going back 15 years if avail.... used some algorithms ie. Efficient Frontier etc, had some success, overall still made decent money, but really feel I need a more educated approach to it. Anyone know of any really courses ? found this one - not cheap - and no clue good or bad https://www.warriortrading.com/trading-courses/ any advice appreciated

Thanks all.... Import duties last time about 4000 baht.... if incurr next time, will take the receipt and go visit the customs department and ask them why

Hi Importing shock absorbers from Malaysia to Thailand. was taxed 30%, but Thailand and Malaysia has a free trade agreement. Anyone know how to use this benefit ? Thanks

Dont drink / smoke ( yeh - a nerd ) and no health issues - late 50's

I am now naturalised.... so govt actually pay alot towards the hospitalisation - the again.... maybe back end payments to th top are a new way to spin money - who knows. ????

We are in sync 100%. well written

Ps - home quarantine until day 14. Also nuts in my opinion - am sure it was Omricon and it left just as fast as it arrived. the 14 days is still based on the Alpha.version from 2020 Sure - let’s be super conservative - 14 days - after all most Thai people have a wad of cash stashed and don’t need to work to survive ( not )

Hi Sheryl i was an inmate for 5 nights. Dr blatantly lied “ x province has no policy for early release”, obviously did not want the pressure Our govt care appointee was good though - after hearing I had no symptoms on day 3, but day 5 pushed the Dr to release me Everyones experience will differ, but if the majority experience Omricon like me, then just get it and be done with if your vaxed. It really was trivial for me, had far far worse

PCR or ATK ? I would recommend ATK unless your worried and would welcome a potential mandatory stay at a hospital. I tested positive on arrival in Bangkok, and was wisked off to a hospital - incredibly boaring, <deleted>ty internet and Dr maintained there is no way to be released early ( which turned out to be a big fat lie ). It get complicated quick - I you have a family, I if your Mrs gets it a few days later - off she goes too, and might have to take the kids to a hospital room if no one to take care. and if they catch it from each other in a delayed manner - thats maybe 20 days.... 20 days dont sound like a lot, but it feels forever when your in that bare walled room. Most commonsense approach if low to mild symptoms, do ATK and stay at home - you dont want the stress the officialdom bearing down on you. Had a sniffly nose for 2 or 3 days - that was it ! ( similar to acquaintances and family members overseas ). Really got me thinking about maybe the best approach is to let it run wild rather than tearing up the economy. Dont give a <deleted> about the intentionally unvaccinated, just wondering how to keep the at risk group safe ( cant get vaccinated, or vaccinated and risk group ). I guess its easy for me to say now as I know I can handle it, which I did not know prior to getting it. Had far far worse flu's than this Credit to our care officer from the govt, did his best to steer us through the process, and pushed to Dr to release me early.

My 10 cents.. I had to read 100 pages to figure out entry to Australia, and still got 2 things wrong. Traveling is not easy during covid times

Would like to know where to find the precise rules on what to do after testing positive for COVID. Read in one article and heard from others if after about 5 days PCR test clear, can quarantine at home if you have a house ( for thai citz ) any advice appreciated

Whole family have Thai passports - holidaying in Australia now. Where to look for rules / process to return to Bangkok end of this month ? Thanks

been looking for good travel insurance to go to Australia. Looked at SCB, and they say "3 million baht converage", but when read fine print, hospital stays are limited to 2000 baht a day.... wow, so much !!! any one have recommendations ?

getting confused where to find things these days - apologies for posting here mods Victoria Australia opened for travel today .... yay. checked all the rules... we qualify. just last thing,, have astrazenica jabs from Thailand.... can seem to find any proof its accepted in Australia. They do say AstraZeneca Vaxzevria is approved for travel in oz, but cant find proof Thailand is that one. any advice appreciated. https://www.passports.gov.au/guidance-foreign-vaccination-certificates?fbclid=IwAR1-jHgNeEz0f5AlYrXQvqNcRdb9FtdXJUBAjn0AAbnhUYoGdg4OhnXC4xI

thank you

Does anyone know where you can get commercial general and professional liability insurance for a small company ? Thanks

Must be from the UK. What a load of trollop. Pattaya used to be terrible 20 yrs back, but its it has cleaned up way better. All thai houses have a septics tank, as such there is no toilet sewerage going into the sea. Yes, I am a diver too - 1200+ dives and have dived all over Thailand and Asia. Similans has had some of the most amazing viz I have ever seen - at one time almost limitless, and you could see the 40m dee sea bed when getting in the water Agree with the other OP, would probably stay away from Patong, but Nai Harn area can be nice.

does anyone know where to rent one? would like to go our for a few hours Thanks

Nope.... I have Thai ID. Subscribed, and deleted app cause <deleted>. recently re-installed, and cant reset password Wife same issue MorMaiProm app

Seems boat tour operators don’t care about rule ie ppl per sqm and alcohol last week was on a catamaran and went past another with packed with youth, loud music and clearly drinking and drunk This week another passed on the beach we were on i guess the rules are for others

There is a problem though for people who travel. There are studies approved ie 2 doses of Astra or Pfeizer which are accepted by WHO and as such allow you to travel. But, WHO and many govt bodies have no solid data on mix and match..... so might not be able to travel

I been saying this since April... its clear Thailand was good at controlling Covid previously, but Delta is a new animal

Most hilarious post in a long time
