  1. They promote corruption among immigration officers and pesky visa agents in Phuket and Pattaya. Selling ED visas is a very big business over there! Russian, Ukrainian, Kazakhstani, Chinese long stayers in Thailand are mostly on a purchased ED visa. Never attending classes.
  2. And America is saying that Israel is a democratic country? And China is not?
  3. Only if you like to eat Western food, drink much alcohol and smoke cigarettes all day long. Otherwise not expensive. Taxi is cheap and high class. Asian food is relatively cheap. A lot of fruits and seafood. I lived and worked in Singapore in 2006-2007.
  4. You cannot compare apples and oranges. I worked in Singapore for one year.
  5. The so-called "Pink ID" is useless. It is probably useful for foreign criminals who don't want to show their expired passport if stopped on the street by Immigration Police. but in most cases they will ask for your passport anyway!
  6. As well as Malaysian ringgit and Japanese yen?
  7. Very good for Thailand exporters! Not good for Thailand importers 🙂
  8. That guy is very self assured, probably an Asian American, looks like Arabic or Pakistani to me.
  9. Definitely, not Russian this time. What a disappointment 🙂
  10. Looks like a decent guy. The real cowboy! Or playboy. R.I.P.
  11. They will keep the packages at the regional customs office warehouse at your location, not at the Post Office.
  12. You will receive a notice from the Customs in your mailbox. You will pay the tax online, you don't need to visit the customs office under normal circumstances. After you have paid the tax, Thailand Post will deliver the package to your home.
  13. As well as Amazon and Etsy. But only for European Union, United Kingdom, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand. This is sorta IOSS system.
  14. European Union introduced the same system 2 years ago for all goods from outside EU sent by post. EU VAT is 20% on the average. Thailand VAT is only 7%
  15. Death of Aleksei Navalny: the Brits did it! https://gilbertdoctorow.com/2024/02/16/death-of-aleksei-navalny-the-brits-did-it/
