A month ago I booked tickt Udon hani to BKK EBP no problem. Return booked separate didn’t know what day returning to UT.

Requested EBP which I got and it said nite EBP can not be used 

at BKK. Used it with no problem. Very strange..

China has very good high speed trains. Modern and kept clean. 

Tickets are not expensive and if you wish there’s first class.

OP instead generalizing all under the same umbrella. Take two weeks at the airport near the exit and ask everyone you can why

they came here....

Then you would have an understanding why they camehere, Get 

there contact info and in a months time follow up and see if they’ve jumped off the class or not....

Can you get an Elite for 5 years? 20 years is a long stretch and you 

never know what’s goingto happen. 

Myself personally wouldn’t go the 20 years the odds are I’ll be pushing up daisies long before that....

Saw this in a post today......who would that 

Balloon value = over inflated price.... joking i don’t have a clue.

My wife had to have a new Mercedes every 2-3 years.....she leased

all in her name. 

US we divorced and she was going to keep the car but the pay off

which they tacked on each time she got a new lease... it was more than a new one...

Might get more traction if the families we support find a way to 

show many Long Timers are doing positive things for their families 

and the country. Then maybe some of the hurdles will be removed, 

TM30, 90 day reporting It should be the least of our worries. China

has similar requirements for reporting your whereabouts.. I did it for 10+ Years if you don’t let it be a focal point then it’s less painful. 

Those that travel a lot yes it’s a pain. 

Just do it... whatever one thinks is best. My guess some were already on the verge of unhappiness ..... on the edge 

Just do it GO if unhappy Or stay ..... 

On your first flight ask if you can check bags 

thru to motherland. When I flew to Singapore 

flight from Udon Thani to BKK bags checked

through.

Cleared immigration at Udon Thani landed at BKK

they take you through another area IO again and 

wait for flight minimal waiting time 15 minutes.

If you can’t check luggage to end destination you should 

arrive with extra time, sometimes lines at Sawmpy can

be painful...

License or not, PoRorBor insurance will pay.

I don’t know what PoRorBor insurance is guessing government insurance. Our car has mid range coverage (Swift) wifey hit the 

gas instead of brake. Went off the road hit a barrier.... she didnt

have a drivers license (dumb) insurance wouldn’t pay bill to repair  

car 160,000.

To this day I can’t figure out what happened Damage to three sides 

of car. I just forget about it.... 

i rented a moto in CM 400cc ran by Brit. They asked if I wanted insurance and cost a day. I 

Opted for insurance. 4 day ride triangle...

Aren’t most if not all cigarette manufacturers state owned. Probably a sizable stream of income. Maybe they’ll reduce 

price from the savings going to drab packaging.

Wouldn’t taking a little bit of time and get it taken care of now.

No one knows what future penalties might be. What if they change 

and give you the boot and don’t come back for X years...

Any good Mexican in NE Udon Thani or Khon Kaen...

hoping some will stick.,,. Then you end up with hears stacked on top of each other then usually reduced.

That’s difficult to read and can’t imagine how you and

your wife felt.. glad everything turned for the best...

Breathalyzer should be available for those that want to use them. 

China has a zero tolerance for alcohol and there’s a service for those who drive you can message or the bar usual offers. 

The person shows up on a bicycle puts the bicycle in your trunk 

and drives you and home. Charge was less than a taxi and you didn’t have to go get your car the next day. They drivers have ID

and are certified by provider. 

I felt bad I lived out in the middle of no where a new community. The MTR stops at a certain time ...usually the driver would catch that back into town. I asked the driver to stop so he’d 

be closer to go back, He said no you’ve had to much to drink.

Like you said, "owner is an expat". A jerk around landlord is a jerk around landlord! They come in all colours and stripes.

I’m my opinion sure there are some but to put all in one basket doesn’t seem fair. Ask around the complex see what other tenants say, 

Thailand 1 US 1 Ex Wife 1..... That’s about it. A guy that worked with me once said when you die most people can count real friends on one hand..
