Doesn't look good for Anutin's goal of becoming next Prime Minister. If only stoned farang could vote, he might have a better chance!

They would have to be out of their minds first

There’s a list of lessons here to be learnt. You also can’t blame the truck drivers insurance stance. Get well soon

Cars before chargers is another disaster waiting to happen, or is this the plan??

Once this becomes 100% we are doomed

Their frightened they will see something they don’t have:-)

Seems that your beef is with Amazon.

 

When DHL are contracted by a seller to ship a dutiable item from overseas, DHL acts as an agent of Thai Customs and collects the duty and VAT on it's behalf, plus a disbursement charge.  All that is clearly itemised on their receipt that is attached to the delivered package.

 

When a seller/Amazon collects the duty at source and it is added to the purchase price and paid up front, as in your case, the seller/Amazon is responsible for that information.   DHL Thailand will just deliver as duty paid at source without having access to the details as they did not collect the duty, etc..

I ordered a sports massager from amazon, it arrived in bangkok, I was told by customs and excise I had to have a medical certificate from a hospital for them to deliver, within two days Amazon realised the unusual action by customs, immediately sent me a refund and an apology with a £10 voucher for my troubles, they took care of the return which I thought was good service. Note amazon refunds said they had never encountered this before in any other country lol

Lotus means 1000000 CTV cameras from the moment you enter the parking lot.  SMH

 

These small towns gets scary when the economy goes south, because even the police are under financial stress.

 

Gold is the absolute last thing you want to bling out with...

 

keep it humble and look poor.......  i'm throwing away the Armani and putting on the wife beater and those plastic 100 baht sandals matched with some 711 sunglasses.  

I’m already there, can’t get any lower lol

Herd immunity will never be achieved for the majority of sheep, only the brave will be immune to forth coming onslaught of viruses they promise

Maybe they do have brains here and not follow the leaders of the pack 

Suicide was the first assumption, after forensic took a week to determine it wasn’t due to it not being a human being

Wether she knew or not, what was in the package in my eyes she is not guilty, what a world we live in to get a life sentence for receiving a package. It’s probably infuriated the officers in charge of this case and to save face the have picked on the wrong person. 

Love it

Another policing job that will never get done

And, can you imagine the headache for the likes of booking 

.com, Agoda etc sorting out who is and who isn’t falling into different categories, they have certainly thought this one through before opening their mouths as usual. I would imagine most bookings these days are done online??

Let this beer go flat and there’s nothing left, full of wind like most carbonated beers here in Thailand 

Just do as I do, stay away and don’t go, their loss not mine. I find them well overpriced anyway

Maybe he should of phoned her a

s if he would be there in a couple of days, maybe everything would of looked hunk dory, take the bike back if it was put back and move on. 
another lesson learned:-)

If exits were legal, smoking would reduce significantly. Ecigs cured my addiction and many friends too in the uk

I returned money to an Australian Bank years ago after the changed up some U.K. pounds into Dollars, they had put in the decimal point in the wrong place and was paid 10times the value of the exchange, the teller was sweating when I returned lol

You can pay them whatever you like, it will not stop the police taking cash if they can get away with it. You can never have too much cash.

 

You call it a "bribe", but this is not always the case as I've been asked for cash money on numerous occasions before making any offer to pay on the spot. They even had a fine price list at one stop. To pay you go into the little police booth to part with your cash. One place even had a rubber stamp for your wrist (like a nightclub entry stamp) as a "leave me alone" pass for the rest of the night LOL. There are some quite elaborate police cash collecting enterprises. 

Get your credit card out:-)

Never entered my mind, must be upsetting the usual lefties??
