Where do you drive? City vs country driving is very different. I'd believe that figure around BKK and surrounding areas.

I drive inside Phuket, sometimes on the high way North.

Hey guys, just want to compare Mutsubishi Pajero Sport diesel 2.5L consumption to someone else. Mine is doing like 550 km on full tank and I think its not a good figure, other diesel SUV's can do something like 650-700. Please share your experiences.

Some online sources suggest you can get long term investment visa in Thailand if you buy a condo that cost more than 10 million baht, or investing in Thai government bonds. How true is it and what are the rules exactly?

Mick, what country did you get the visa at? Usually they asking lots of paper work and grant you 3 months only and not one year.

You did not look very hard

174 Thailand Visa for sixty days on arrival.

Thank you, actually there are good news. Visa on arrival for 60 days !

Hey guys, anyone knows what it takes to obtain tourist visa for Thai national to go to Mauritius? There is no embassy of consulate in Bangkok(the closest in in Malaysia) and there is no clear information on the net. Thank you very much in advance.

Thought I'd bring this one back up!

Are there any updates on being aloud to cross the border for a few 'unofficial' hours (no stamps). Would like to see the market on the other side.

Thanks!

Bumpy bump, any news?

Thank you for your posts guys. Made me at ease now...

My 60 days tourist visa will expire on Saturday, and I can make an extension for another 30. I guess immigration does not care about Saturday and I need to get there on Friday? Will they grant me extension starting Friday or Saturday? Its is important for me as I need to book/buy air tickets in advance.

Thank you for your input Fletch, will take a look at the options!

Anyone here trading SET50 Index Futures? I'm looking into them, but by now is not seems to be a good instrument with margin of almost 100K Baht per contract, low volumes and less than perfect broker software to trade them. Please share your experience, thank you in advance!

How do you wash them? I read that you can machine wash them? Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

You can machine wash them, no problem. BTW I heard you can buy those shoes now in BKK, will check those rumors today.

>I am moving to the new condo next week situated on the corner of Sukhumvit 36 in Bangkok

Not wishing to change topic but how is the condo? From the outside the building looks a monstrous and cold steel factory? Are the facilities inside more comfortable and homely?

The condo is fine as long as you stay not on Sukhumvit side as its too noisy, pool is long, gym is fine, staff is helpful and friendly. The view is great..

True, 3bb , 3bb wifi, cat are there. Yeah, the torrent kings are living there. And shared bandwidth is a mess than.

True is a mess if you try Voice over IP. they do traffic shaping and prioritise their own voip service. I would not run a PBX with them.

True is not available at Noble Remix, only TOT, made 12 MB package, gives me 2-8 MB depends on the time of the day, torrents are fine. Pretty stable.

I am moving to the new condo next week situated on the corner of Sukhumvit 36 in Bangkok. The area belongs to TOT, but i had very bad experience with that company ADSL and their "no service". Any other options available there? I need ADSL, not 3G as I am heavy user. Thank you for input.

I have problem with HDMI connector in my PS3, accidently pulled the cable out, now its not showing on the TV, where I can fix it in BKK? Pantip?

Did you fix it and if yes where did you go?

I got 5 GB data package for a month, using it only for trading, for the rest I am using wifi of my building. My weekly using on sim is less than 1 GB.

Just to follow up, I got Dtac sim card and its working very well, fast and not dropping at all.

Thanks for reply, ADSL is not an option, I stay here only for few months and is no direct phone line from what I know. TruemoveH sounds like a way to go.,but I probably will test both Dtac and True to see what is better for that area.

Hi all, I am futures trader and staying in the apartment with unstable wifi connection(fast, but dropping for few seconds often), Thonglor area. Need to get unlimited or big 3G package from one of the local providers, the stability of the connection is more important than speed. What is good for that area? I think the choice is between True and Dtac, as AIS 3G is complete crap. Please recommend and share your experiences.

Hi all, my question is about Belgian beer, where I can find some in Phuket? Last night went to Wine Connection Chalong, they had not even one available from their menu.

I am looking for Tripel Karmeliet and Delirium Tremens kinds. Thank you very much in advance for the info.

Villa Market has quite a few, and also one of the advertisers here on the forum, sorry forgot the name, sells them.

Don't recall seeing the ones you'd like though.

Thanks for your suggestion, but I am kinda looking for a bar/restaurant to have the beers in, in those nice shapped glasses etc..
