I did a UK wise Xfr to BBL last week, arrived in seconds.

Absolutely correct

There are no bar closures this weekend, alcohol can be bought in the normal way.

About time CP were made to pay up for their incompetence since they obviously came from their premises. No doubt they as part of the billionaire old guard they will get off Scott free...

Not long enough for that bully.

Fail to see the problem, I concluded many deals on the golf course or at the 19th hole, it was a normal way to do business.

My experience earlier this month was this, Copies of passport photo page, 1 year visa extension stamp, 90 day report slip. Front and back copies of old 5 year licence, Pink ID card, and 1st 2 pages of yellow book. Medical certificate, 60 baht. 1 hour doing the DLT e-learning course, in Thai but with English subtitles. Had to answer 1 question from each of the 4 episodes. Show QR code upon successful completion. You can do this in advance and present the QR code to the DLT for verification upon arrival. Colour and reaction tests, photo. Collect new licence, 505 baht. Obviously offices around the country vary in true Thai style, mine was in Roi Et.

It's just the usual Thai mumbo jumbo of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing...

Don't need 1 as I have a full 5 year Thai DL. Previously some 16 plus years ago I used a IDP issued in the UK without any problems here.

Thailand the hub of being guilty before you are charged with anything and even after you have been found not guilty, you still are. The so called justice system is a gross infraction on human rights along with other things in Thailand.

Maintaining trust and transparency. There is no trust and transparency to be maintained the organisation is riddled with corruption and scammers

Good, I hope the chinese lose all their investments, I for one won't be buying the crap particularly if it's labelled premium. I haven't come across anything remotely premium in their products to date, cheap crap

It's all a scam, I avoid anything artificial especially bolt ons...

Good luck with that approach because LBs can be very violent as I have witnessed with silletto heels being embedded in a guy's head during a altercation, claret everywhere. A polite non confrontational engagement is my recommendation.

Not unless you took the cowards way out and topped yourself like the guy in the story.

Just another layer of veneer on Thai society in general trying to cover up the rotten wood underneath.

Ugly as a pig

Unfortunately the level of corruption in Thailand means that the rug is so huge it covers the whole country.

There has never been any sort of strategy, they are purely driven by numbers arriving at the gate...

I used the DLT e-learning App and there is a version with English subtitles which I used 3 weeks ago to renew my 5 year licence. The guy in my local DLT office set it up for me. Try Google, DLT e-learning in English

Well I don't stay at that hotel because regardless of the environment the room rates are extortionate for a town in Isaan and it's in the middle of a market... Far better value to be had a couple of hundred metres down the road.

This has been going on for decades, poorly paid people given loans that don't equate to their income. Especially in the public sectors, police, army, teachers, doctors and nurses etc... All can get loans from government banks at silly times more than their salaries.

It's the same everywhere, price goes up, content goes down Still cheaper than most places, if you can't afford it don't order it

IME they are all liars, obviously there are varying degrees. I just BS back. Most can't remember a conversation from last night let alone anything else about what you or for that matter what she said. It's a game, play the game or get sucked in...

He is such a dumb piece of excrement, he says wait until the investigation is complete but before that has even happened he already knows it's not terrorism related. Another incompetent PM unelected who like his predecessor is a know it all...
