"Somchai's Book of World Records". A book consisting of one page.

and that would be blank. Unless it included gaffs and medaling in politics.

And there i was thinking only a doctor could pronounce someone dead, scary thought that some rescue untrained person could wrap you up there and then and send you to the morgue.

The project would be presented to the Cabinet for approval of an estimated Bt600-million budget in order to advance the development and production of a vaccine in Thailand, he added.

Yes, they take a charge for transportation. From Trat to Bangkok I would take a guess on about 2k baht.

That would barely cover the fuel cost.

No proper life jacket then, that will keep your head afloat, face up, even if you get knocked unconscious. back to education once more. My condolences to the family.    I can remember when i was 10 yr old a kid in our school drowned near a bridge, in morning assembly, the Headmaster stood and explained to us not to go swimming in the river especially near the bridge supports because of strong currents maybe because of this advise i am still alive.

Tw@ts.

I meant where was he taken in if not leaving via an airport.

 

Please Read the story He was taken from KOH CHANG (in the province of Trat) that does NOT have an AIRPORT

It seems a bit odd that he has to travel from Bangkok to Trat for an overstay

courtcase, unless there are other IDC's throughout the country.

 

I also thought this may be the same guy, and maybe after his initial arrest immigration

looked at his visa situation.

Koh Chang IS in Trat.

Just curious. How on earth did they catch him? Where? Good luck!

There was a lot of police cars on Koh Chang around the 5/6th Aug, i live up a small soi and one parked outside my gate for about 15 min, ???? the next day i saw 3or 4 police cars waiting for the 7am ferry. They could have simply gone to his last known address.

Email the British Embassy in Bangkok. They are very helpful. Body cannot be released for cremation without death certificate from town hall and letter of release from British Embassy.They should only release to next of kin Or executor. You can also contact the Foreign and Commonwealth off ice in U.K. who are also involved in overseas deaths of U.K. citizen’s.

you May well have widow’s pension rights on the U.K. so important to obtain death certificate a d any bank details to identify source of funds.

good luck

I agree it is only a direct family member that can get the body released, no matter how long they have been a partner, so your direct family member who got the body released has the death cert.

At 0.25 a M/C swerves to the opposite side of the road. Was he avoiding the oncoming pick up? OR was the pick up trying to avoid him ? ????

Yes, my wife's family will assist, but based on their explanation of the process I just find it to be too easy.

I was told "we just go to the bank together with the seller, pay the money (the bank get their part and the seller get his part), get the paper (the bank will release the paper), go to the land office and make the transfer.

It might be this easy, but I wanted to try to obtain some additional information before going to the bank.

Do not do that, read my post above. edit; i have just re-read your post if the bank has the land title then the owner has borrowed money on the land beware of that one, it means as far as i know the bank owns the land 

This is how we did it. 4steps, 1.Owner got the land office to come and mark out the plot 5,000 (if not already done)  2. Go with the owner and a witness for you preferably some one that can speak good english to translate for you , to the Pu Yi Ban they check the land title, and make a simple contract, where you hand over a small deposit say 100,000 baht photos were taken of handing over the money, 3.then go to the land office with owner and a bank check for the balance hand over the bank check when all has been checked , LO called us when the they had completed the transfer, 4 go back to land office and pay 5% tax, you should then get the land title in your wife's name. take photos of all steps and keep a witness with you.  quite easy really. memory has faded a bit but this is about it.

This is the proper set up; left concrete, for shower; center plastic, toilet; right concrete, kitchen. 

2 mistakes in this was they put shower tank to close to toilet tank and had to cut out some concrete. and the gas pipe was very low so got them to put it up to the eves with a T piece on topthe gas pipe is the one on top.

Not sure if they still have shops but 'Telewise' can find the number, also 'Advise" are quite good with problems like this.

It seems as though every 7-11 in Thailand employs at least ONE ladyboy. If they aren't too flamboyant, they can usually find some kind of work.  I hate to see anyone starved out of existence. Ironic that Thailand is doubling down on visa regulations to make it difficult for their farang "cash cows" to live here. It is always "ready, FIRE, aim". in Thailand. Absolutely NO thought given to the consequences of actions.

Seems many also work in call centers AIS to name one.

I feel sorry for the cop but, from my point of view the cop was standing in the wrong place, and directing traffic to go around the back of him and no Hi-Viz vest. what could go wrong ?

Nice to see the doorman/cop  in the photo, completely ignoring the menu stand blocking the footpath, well done. does the other side of the manager's sign read foreigner's not served ?

In 20 years I have never seen "one way traffic " in Thailand. 

Then take a trip to Chanthaburi.

many more streets in Pattaya should be pedestrian only, this idea is going the wrong direction

I have never understood why so many small sio's are not one-way anyway, 11, 12 etc.

So Thai passports are valid 5 years?

Maybe that explains dropping the charges against the Red Bull fugitive. Didn't he flee in 2015 so that would mean that his passport has expired or will soon? Maybe they dropped the charges so that he can get a new passport?

It seems you are unaware that very wealthy people can have several passports from different countries he does not need a Thai passport to travel anywhere, including Thailand.
