Oh dear, it seems BJ is promoting his agenda to be on the short list and appears to be conforming to the well trodden path of collecting his dues. After all the chinese actress did say on being whisked from the airport to her hotel with motorcycle outrider's, that everything is for sale in Thailand..

Another photo op joke. The word thorough and city hall officials and the BiB is incompatible...

He was a extraordinarily incompetent PM.

Isn't there a Xiaomi shop in Central... The staff there will speak English.

What an absurd statement. With a long history of coups it won't be long before the next one is upon the nation. The army are dinosaurs and only know one thing as we have continually witnessed. They have zero credentials to run a country as we see time and again not only here but around the world. It's merely a trough feeding exercise with absolutely no benefit to the citizens at large.

So much for Thailand's digital 4.0 policy,an absolutely disgraceful situation. I would write letters to the Embassy and in particular the Ambassador showing him how disgraceful his country is being portrayed to potential tourists and the reputational damage this is having.

How about prosecuting those that introduced the Emergency decree... Another blow to freedom of speech.

Another sad day for Thailand and democracy with 20m or so voters disenfranchised and the cronies steal their way back into power by dealing with the incompetent army Muppets who were kicked out by the electorate.

At my IO it has to be dated the same day as the application.

There is no such thing as reconciliation with the old dinosaurs, who by there very actions are stealing the election from the countries future who voted in huge numbers to get them out. Dancing with military devil is not the way forward but is harking back to their illegitimate regime of 10 years. Unfortunately the corrupt practices and past are all that really count.

I've done the walk through the park too. Not for money reasons but for exercise after 8 hours on a bus, unless of course it's raining and then I get a taxi to my hotel.

Living here beats the hell out of living in the UK, which is why I am now in my 15th year in Thailand.

Paying 18k for a 1 year extension is I'm my opinion a very good deal. I know people who pay over 20k. Last week I met a Swiss guy, completely clueless about visas who told me he paid 23k for a 3 month TV...

Except the dim witted IO is Thai and will gleefully point out the error and barr you entry.

There are plenty of Thai tailors that make made to measure shirts for less than 2000 baht. Especially in Pattaya.

My marriage extensions take between 1.5-2 hours, certainly not all day as you suggest.

A quiet night time location and free parking are my top 2. E.g, April Suites in Pattaya. Budget between 800 - 1500 per night inclusive. Obviously clean with good housekeeping and staff.

Additional private car insurance is not required to renew your annual road registration, the compulsory government insurance is issued and paid for at the same time as the new 1 year windscreen sticker.

That's what happens when you deal with the devil.

Another example of a Neanderthal in the schools of Thailand which is why the completely useless rote system is still in use. These people don't teach they preach and preach utter nonsense.

Another fine example of corrupt junta appointed cronies foiling the will of the people to keep the guilty in power.

Absolutely outrageous and these military Muppets and their billionaire cronies know no shame when it comes to their contempt for the lives of ordinary citizens. Meanwhile they waste billions on submarines with no engines and other army boys toys.

I know plenty of girls here in Isaan who work for local businesses and they get nowhere near 30k a month. Most Thai people manage on half that and many more on less and keep a family together. For example their electricity bills are often 500 baht a month or less running 1 fridge and 1 TV and some lighting. A bank manager with a University degree will be making 35 - 45k a month or thereabouts depending on seniority, to put in some perspective.

Absolutely disgraceful behaviour again from people who allow children to be repeated victims. No accountability anywhere in Thailand. They should all be locked up.

No doubt anyththing published from the grossly incompetent and corrupt NACC would expose just how bad they are at their jobs by protecting the guilty. How can they even possibly over rule a Supreme court decision...
