  1. Those machines are designed for the elderly. Not much use for younger people.
  2. Because life is all about money? Everyone who has an average salary is a loser?
  3. Would having a license change anything? There are no practical lessons at all; the theory lessons consist of just watching videos.
  4. The parallels are obvious. In Ukraine, too, everything began with the occupation of an island..😜
  5. It seems to me Putin is just waiting for that moment.
  6. If your pockets are empty, will they treat you?!
  7. Need to consider that your bank account is technically “tied” to that specific branch and province. You might pay a fee when using an ATM of your bank outside the province where you opened the account. If there's a problem with your account, you might hear " You have to go to the branch where you opened the account."
  8. I see online: The Teachers’ Council of Thailand (Khurusapha) will begin charging fees for "the temporary teacher’s license" starting February 16, 2025. Thai: 500 baht Foreigner: 1,000 baht
  9. Here we go. Backpackers out, quality tourists in. That these places are cheap compared to western standards is irrelevant. This is Thailand. With the same argument you could say, why rice with chicken is 40 Baht only, raise it to 200.
  10. You are basically saying tourist should pay 10-20 times more. Less tourists , less rubbish.😗 Talking about locals, aren't expats locals but still pay the farang price?
  11. I guess it depends on the office. My office told me they will fine me if i don't report after having stayed 24 hours in another province
  12. Wait for Musk's son Techno Mechanicus 😁 This name alone makes him the born president😇
  13. Market prices for coffee and chocolate have increased significantly due to weather and supply chain issues.
  14. A German magazine commented: It is the script of a TV show host who is experienced in staging. Trump had the conditions for a deal dictated to him by Putin: Ukraine must vacate all provinces in the east, no NATO troops can be stationed in Ukraine, and Ukraine must be demilitarized. Since Putin is not well-regarded as a deal partner even in the U.S., Trump can only sell this deal to his country if he humiliates Ukraine and portrays it as ungrateful and disgusting.
  15. for any voluntary work is a work permit required AFAIK
  16. well, they give good advice, saying stay at home, don't do outdoor activities😆
  17. There's a double test kit for I think 79 Baht, testing for Covid and Influenza. I got the flu,too.
  18. Pricewise for rct? Can't see a price list on the website.
  19. Nope. No rural life at all, apartment in the city; Big C, Tesco, Robinson are here. Lived on 20k for some years. It still can be done. But if you want more comfort, a good health insurance and enjoy western food and lots of traveling, 30 k is the least.
  20. Kamphaengphet. You can walk around without seeing any farang.
  21. My first salary as a teacher was 20k. In the province, not BKK. The apartment 2k plus water/energy. You can definitely live on 20k.
  22. What you could do is to use say 800k and invest it in Crypto or stocks that promise high returns. You may double it or lose 80%, Everything is possible.😇
  23. Here it's discounted for some time already, but not buy 1 get 1 free. I think it's 189 for one.
