  1. Most ATMs in Cambodia NOW only have $100, 20k riel and 50k riel notes. Those with $10 and $20 notes are quickly becoming a thing of the past. As for the OP, I'm a bit baffled. Who in their right mind takes riel abroad when leaving Cambodia?
  2. The timing isn't suspicious at all with the vote planned for tomorrow. They sure could have referred this to the court 1-2 weeks ago already.
  3. Man-eating escalators, the latest scare with Covid-19 now behind us.
  4. If you had spent as much time on avoiding your overstay as you spend on asking these questions, you'd be in a better place. What I wrote wasn't "reasonable speculation", but based on many reports from overstayers I've read. Very few had problems with regards to entering other countries with a Thai overstay. In fact the only problem I remember was with Lao Air refusing to take people with an overstay to Laos, ariund the time when Thailand introduced blacklisting. If you're concerned, fly home first and get a new passport there. While that doesn't wipe Thai immigration's record of your overstay, it will ensure that IOs in other countries won't see any potentially incriminating stamps.
  5. They usually aren't interested. Plus the overstay stamp is in Thai language only, so except for the officials of Laos who can obviously read Thai, "nobody" can read it anyway.
  6. Can you blame him? There must be quite a few idiots working for him.
  7. How could there be a time-line at this point? Did the Russians confirm when they'll withdraw their troops? Didn't think so.
  8. That is so sad. No really. He could have quit years ago already. Instead, he held Thailand back for 9 long years.
  9. I can't blame him for trying. That's an outrageous prison sentence for such a white collar crime, especially considering that they didn't steal from some poor old grannies but from the sports rights monopoly/mafia. Well anyway, the party is over now.
  10. They've certainly taken annoying their users to a whole new level lately. I'll finally switch to using a downloader too.
  11. Embellishing his story a bit like many others... Who is he hoping to sell it to anyway, considering it's all been said?
  12. Hopefully a sufficient number of his colleagues will see the light. There's no shame in being appointed to the senate by the military, unless you let them make you their pet.
  13. This aspiring medical tourism hub has no lack of sickening slogans to promote itself.
  14. A maintenance issue then, of course, which they were all too quick to deny initially.
  15. Big Jok(e) tried the same and failed miserably, and the same fate also awaits the current head clown in charge.
  16. People on here can moan all day long, but seeing how popular Starbucks is with many Thais, I don't think their plans for growth are outrageous.
  17. Definitely. There's a very good chance that they wouldn't let you exit at a land border with such a long overstay. This ain't 2015 anymore.
  18. You wouldn't be fined for an overstay at immigration on Monday, but keep in mind that you will be on overstay in the meantime, so if an overzealous cop chooses to arrest you on Sunday, your plan to go to immigration on Monday won't be a valid excuse. Go today if possible. I wouldn't plan to go on overstay in the current climate.
  19. I like the broad range of emojis on offer, and - let's be honest! - some posts on this forum are dumb enough that they don't deserve a written reply, so giving the sad or confused emoji is the most appropriate response.
  20. Back in the real world, it was a bright and sunny day in Bangkok today, some would say a bit too hot...
  21. I'd say the bus ride in a border area is a much bigger risk than a domestic flight. You should consider flying out instead of leaving overland.
  22. Maybe the "how long it takes to get a new passport from a failing state such as the UK" discussion could be moved to a separate thread? It really adds nothing to the passport transfer topic.
