  1. Anyone has a clue up to how many days/weeks/months a "border run" is, i.e. IOs not considering one to overstaying their welcome when returning? Say, if I stayed in Thailand for 8 months, then left for 2, would they roll out the red carpet again?
  2. What the heck did they plan to do with these docs? Give them to Winnie the Pooh? ☺️
  3. I wouldn't be surprised if they had the paper forms ready as a backup. 😆
  4. Confusing as always... Fill out arrival card, then download. And then what?? Will they have all those data in their Immigration computers?
  5. Tofu-dreg now also in Thailand? 😆 Anyhow, strongest earthquake, I ever experienced. Strangely, the two earthquakes in my life I felt, both happened in SE Asia. (Even though, I've been to NZ and Japan...)
  6. According to international IQ rankings, Thai college students were rated in the 80s-range years ago. Mind you, that people with an IQ of 75 and below are considered to be 'retarded'... (Hope, that those extra 10 points, or so for educated Thais make all the difference.) 😆
  7. I wouldn't be surprised if they developed their own "Global" Education Ranking, Thai-style, with Thailand ranking at the top, similar to their Thai-style "international" IQ ranking they came up with years ago.
  8. K-Bank sent me forms last year re. tax status. Arriving in Thailand again this year, I was wondering, whether I should fill them out at the branch. Not living in Thailand anymore, but spending less than 180 days a year in the country now, I was wondering, what the chances are that the bank will close my account, if I tell them that when filling out the forms.
  9. Spot on. How can one plan a (longer) holiday with such flip-flops in tourism policy? Starts already with a flight out of the country. When to book it; after 30, 60, or 90 days? (And will I later, at the check-in counter on the way to Thailand, get into trouble with such return-ticket?)
  10. I was wondering; the Canadian shops taking U.S. booze from the shelves right after Trump announced tariffs... Whatever happened to those goods?
  11. Good for Thailand, finally catching up with Prohibition a hundred years after the U.S. introduced it... 😆
  12. In 28 years, I have travelled only once for 'less than 21 days' to Thailand, and that was when flights were much more affordable... Holidaying closer to home is looking more and more like a better option, without the long flight and sour faces at Arrival in Bangkok...
  13. The day will come when they are drunk and bold enough to actually come up with a 'tourism' campaign like that, I'm sure... 😆
  14. I bet, a large number of the 'bad apples' are Chinese... But no, can't just cut visas for them, because big CCP brother will be p**sed. Maybe it really is, like the Chinese tour guides in Pattaya said years ago, Thailand IS (practically) "a colony of China"...
