To hell with the global stage.
I'm a non smoker but I'm for the smoking rooms, let the smokers enjoy a fag before boarding.
All these stupid changes.
It's what I like about Thailand the differences, it's not the west, the west is what I left bloody behind.
The local bottled water delivery truck here in Pattaya has filtered water which is basically distilled water, I'm sure this would be good for you to use.
Look out for these guys in your area.
When I first arrived Thailand I was working, Songkhla working for a few years.
Back then your first licence was 1 year, my next DL renewal I was given a 5 year licence.
The rig I was working on moved to Vietnam, my rotation was 28 days, so I flew in and out on a tourist visa on my time off
Sadly when time came to renew my 5 year DL I was given a 1 year only because I no longer held a long term visa.
I have the same, it's not been a problem for the last 20 years, don't worry.
My passport shows my surname first, it's probably why it shows first on my DL
Last year I bought the gf a vivo v29.
Quite slim and lightweight, 512gb Memory, big processor, 50MP camera and 50MP selfie (she loves the selfie camera), NFC, esim etc, for only 10k baht, I got a steal.

Happens daily, tourists passing out from alcohol abuse.
Funny thing is that the Bolt driver dumped him in front of the cop shop.
Also funny this article posted on the Phuket news.
Thailand is changing fast, the Woke's are arriving and changing Thailand, they want Thailand to be the same awful place they have left behind.
Thailand has been my home for over 20 years, I reckon another 10 years it won't be worthwhile relocating here.
The Thai's are no longer welcoming us as they have in the past, the nasty foreigners that are arriving is changing the Thai attitude.
