If you are male married to Thai citizen.

Read this thread: Camerata's Guide To The Permanent Residence Process

If you are female married to Thai you can skip this part but must have had extension of stay at least two years in Thailand.

OK, many comments here and not a single one about the achievement.

Hope he wins.

did he throw it off Doi Suthep?

More quotes from The Nation mathematicians this week.

Since low pressure ridges still cover Thailand and Bangkok, forecasters say we should expect continuous rainfall over the current 12 month period. Bangkok's rainfall in August and September will total from 190340 millimetres, and there might be tropical cyclones.

There are now 19,653 joint Thai-foreign businesses in Phuket, which have invested around Bt62 million.

Maybe the Nation should post news here first for a reality check.

Court asked to declare Saudi businessman "missing"

The Office of the Attorney-General on Wednesday asked the South Bangkok Criminal Court asking it to declare a Saudi business who disappeared in 1990 a "missing person".

.......... snip

The missing man was seen in a car with Saudi consul Abdullah al-Besri on Feb 12, 1990, and was reported missing three days later.

.......... snip

It was widely suspected that al-Ruwaili was kidnapped by police investigating the Saudi consul's murder, and that he was tortured and later killed by his captors to cover up their brutal actions.

The businessman's disappearance and the consul's murder followed the killing of three other Saudi diplomats were in separate shootings on Feb 1, 1989. One of the diplomats, Saleh Abdullah al-Maliki, third secretary at the Saudi embassy in Bangkok, was shot dead in front of his home in soi Pipat 1.

Nobody lost face?

I read they were promoting Phuket in the rainy season, without even stating that its dangerous to swim. So in a way all those greedy thai and farang who live of tourists are responsible.

I mean there were posts about this and how it would endanger people (cant find that one now). It seems that the people opposed to it were right

I guess maths is not in the curriculum for journalists.

If we had an international forum, all the sport and good fun of trying to justify things as "Thai related" would be lost.

Here is a test for you to test your skills:

How is the Calaveras County (California) Fair and Jumping Frog Jubilee Thai related?

I'll give it a go.

"The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" is an 1865 short story by Mark Twain.

Mark Twain named the frog after Daniel Webster.

Daniel Webster was both a U.S. senator from Massachusetts and a U.S. representative from Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

In Massachusetts there is a hotel named Daniel Webster Inn Hotel.

You can book it on www.Chiangdao.com

Chiangdao is an amphur in Chiang mai, Thailand.

I wondered where Lat Koh is as well but doubt it's the viewpoint (where restaurant is, right ?) between Chaweng Noi and Lamai as that's way out of Bophut, isn't it ?

Just south of Chaweng Noi where they used to have many spirithouses (no restaurant)

Still Bophut sub-district, Maret starts after the next bend towards Lamai.

Bought mine at HomePro for 6000 baht.

Four digit electronic and key.

Fireproof, bolted and motion alarm.

Sell the plot to a local Thai.

You can not win this battle.

A terrible loss of life no matter what the circumstances. My condolences to his family.

Where exactly is Lat Koh ? Is the "cliff" there hazardous at all ?

I believe it's "viewpoint" between Chaweng noi and Lamai.

Democrat candidate Thani Thaugsuban has cruised to an easy win in a by-election in this southern province to succeed his brother Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban in the lower house.

Mr Thani yesterday won 122,032 votes - far ahead of the 24,624 votes secured by the runner-up from the Puea Thai Party, Sompol Vichaidit, a younger brother of former party leader Yongyuth.

The turnout yesterday was very low at just 47.66% of eligible voters. Elections have been held frequently in recent years, and voters might be bored, said Boonsong Techamanisatit, Surat Thani deputy governor and provincial election commission chairman.
