  1. New Zealand also as Asians make up a greater proportion of the population than indigenous folk.
  2. WISE tfr from NZ to Kasikorn a/c in less than 5 seconds. Card use when traveling is simple. For extended visits to say, Vietnam or UK, I buy VND or GBP in advance when the fx rate is in my favour. I even converted Wise USD a/c funds to VND when it suited and won on the fx twice. Love it!
  3. Kiwi's can enter Visa-Exempt for 30 days. Seems like the Thai embassy in Wellington is simply moving to online Visa's and jacked fees to pay the webmaster, among others.😎
  4. I'm with AIS and receive OTP's from Aus and NZ banks no problem. ANZ both sides of the ditch, and WestPac. Likely an Aussie problem, not AIS, IMHO.
  5. Try here https://www.facebook.com/huayyaicornerstore
  6. The extended 'winter' cool period is a natural fire suppressant. Wait for the hot season to kick in with lightning strikes and squalls.
  7. Sauté function might do it but I only ever do roasts in my bbq or electric oven.
  8. Yes, it is also a pressure cooker. Mine is of a similar design with same functions and although a cheapie, bought 5 years ago, it performs just as well as my son's expensive Breville. The pressure cooking function is quiet (and safe) compared with old-style cookers. EDIT: Despite HomePro labeling as a 'rice' cooker, it is in fact a multi-cooker.
  9. Lazada or Shopee sell 'Multi-cookers' or you might grab one at HomePro > (I have a similar model - fantastic!)
  10. Typical Thaiger trash news. AN should rise above copying from social media clickbait.
  11. You might have simply corrected the error, to read "reserve".
  12. Several underlying causes of road deaths often ignored are:- high powered vehicles in the hands of inexperienced drivers. EV's in particular will be a menace in the wrong hands with frightening acceleration and poor wet weather handling. New cars get quicker and quicker, alas drivers brains haven't kept pace. Phone use whilst driving is so prevalent yet perpetrators hide behind illegal all-round black tint. Even when not using a phone, night vision is dangerously reduced.
  13. 50 years of drunk driving has honed my senses and I've never had an accident. It's these young kids you gotta watch out for. Seriously though, yaba/meth/P/Ice or whatever combined with alcohol will only see a rise in deaths. Mainly (~75%) motorbike riders.
  14. "Sawan" appears to be unsuited for open waters of Phang Nga bay. She is narrow in the beam, high wooded and I daresay of fairly shallow draft and with a single engine. High windage, pax all topside on aft deck + poor seamanship would likely cause a high centre of gravity and capsize the vessel. An avoidable accident if Western maritime safety rules and regulations were in place and followed, even loosely.
