I think many insurance are oversold. Like in Netherlands we all have a 'mandatory' medical insurance that's valid worldwide. Will have to request and download an international certified copy for Thailand, but that's it. All expenses paid up to the equivalent in treatment costs of my country (so that's more than enough). No extra travelling insurance needed. Still every time they try to sell me. So my advice to you guys; check your home medical insurance and download and PRINT the international validation. Keep it with you everywhere you go ...

Singapore has online visa system and Changi airport has automated passport gates with face recognition. If he had passed this quietly, no officer would have had a look at his passport at all. But maybe AI alerted to an extra check due to the haircut ... ?

I believe that's not a problem at all

If we start paying them, becourse you're scared then within a week they will all do it. Make a picture of the drivers card and file a complaint. It really helps ..

Well theire building like crazy. Big SUV's need to be paid off ... LOL

Since the Chinese real estate market is so unreliable and unstable (and limited) i do expect a surge of sales over here. Especially from the cooler Northern China area as well as from Taiwan* and Hong Kong*. * fleeing option

Maybe rent a motorbike and use a bicycle at the gym?

I think the Russians aren't going home to get draughted anyway. So the Thai government will try to avoid an uncontrolable waterfall of overstayers? Anyway, lets give the rest 90 days also. Save some visaruns 😉

Good guys in, bad guys out. Enjoy your holiday, but just follow the rules.

Always take my "underway-coffee" from 7/11 @ 14 baht ...

If i recall correctly: the guest had taken beverages from outside and then went drinking with his friends on the hotel public premises. Causing a huge confrontation with the hotel-owner. Afterwards very bad reviews were left on several (booking) sites. Hence the law suit. I don't aprove of the defamation law, but burning down a small hotel like this was not fair.
