hi. thats also another reason why i started this. And yours is one of them. Actually they were talking about how people take seriously their jobs when doing something and then somehow he took the topic to nationality. Such as this country people do work like this, that country like this, blah blah.. And then it came to his nose and where he is from. Btw his nose is fine, nothing special. So, the topic was serious. And im pretty sure he knew what he was talking about. another problem with him is, he is all over the thai female personnel. He is flirting with everything he thinks is female. im serious. And we are working for the Royal Thai Airforce, everyone here is ranked people. I will give him a verbal warning tomorrow. If this still goes on written. And then i have to think about his employment. thanks

Hi guys, thanks for the great comments. I also kind of agree that it was not that high level racism but questionable behavior. I think i will give him a verbal warning with this and his other few things regarding in our work place. At this point the other guy told me no need to complain.

So the other day i was sitting at the office and doing my work, I witnessed a conversation between two of my co-workers. We have this new german guy joined us probably 3-4 weeks ago. He is expert about plane engines. In his mid 50s And the other guy (not important where he is from) also expert about engines for drones. And he is with us for probably 5 years now. I must say the german guy already got everyone's attention because of his attitude and behaving to other people both Thai and foreigners. Obviously in a negative way. No need to give examples. So get back to the conversation i heard. I will not give the full details but at some point german guy said 'yes, you are obviously from ... because your nose is very big.' And the other guy (who is well known about his really nice personality, etc.) asked like 'what do you mean?' And the german said 'thats how we understand where you are from (mentioning his country) in my country. There are lot of from your country'. At that point something came up and we had to go to the workshop to check few things. So i was thinking about this conversation. Was it racist or he was just describing what he looks like? I know in Nazi times, germans said Jews has big nose (he is not from Israel or a jew). I checked with the other guy and he said he doesnt care about the conversation but he thinks (me too) the german guy will not stay here long (obvious reasons). But the thing is i must decide if that was racist or not, because im the head of the section in here. What makes me think is the german guy is not good in english. But he said that very clearly and even made a comment about it. what you guys think... thanks

I dont understand why people suggest Cambodia border. I read terrible things about the border and also im one of that terrible stories. It happened with my non-o multi. I would do my best to avoid from there. Everyone knows and agree that Thai-Laos border is the most friendly one. Mukdahan / Savanakhet. Although i dont know if its open for the thing you want to do. If not, Cambodia can be the second option. If laos is not an option I would choose @DrJack54 suggestion, Saigon. But its kind of long and lot of time and probably lot of money. And obviously you are looking for a very fast and quick way to do this. So 3 options: - Laos: if possible. - Saigon: friendly, more money and time. - Cambodia: not friendly but best option if that 2 option is not possible. PS: you really really no need to use any agency for your trip or else. Dont listen to people suggest that. They will do nothing special. You will still be the one who ahs to do all paper work, and everything. so they are not doing anything BUT take more money than you would pay by yourself. The bus from bangkok to cambodia border is around 450-500 baht. Also they will stop at a PTT gas station in the middle of the night, then ask you to fill the forms for the visa and other things i front of the toilet.. trust me, you want to go by yourself.

well, all advices says you need to leave and get a new visa which is suitable to your situation. Good luck
-
tbh your post is full of misleads.. and also some interesting infos about the visa situation.. you mentioned that you got education visa but then you said you got it for 8 months because of educational 2nd test which is... doesnt make any sense. is it like you found a new work to teach and they ask you to take teacher license exam? is that what you mean by educational visa? if so.. thats totally wrong. you can get a letter from the minister of education for 2 years and you can teach any school you want.. just must change the school every 2 years. and yes, at some point you need to take the test. but again i have no idea what you mean by 2nd test?! And to be honest if you cannot have the right visa to stay and live in thailand (which looks like you are trying to stay here as long as you can) well.. im sorry but i dont think anyone can help you about this. Abusing the system is not the answer. Soon or later.. thats it.. the end i think you need to be more clear with your visa situation.. and all of with this educational visa thing..

The 250 baht Thai Massage........
problemfarang replied to Iamfalang's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
were you drunk or high when having this 3am massage? -
in my opinion, khon kaen is one of the best cities in Thailand. I remember 17 years ago of khon kaen. It was not a small or big city. No Central yet too (i also remember its construction) And not that much farangs too. Very friendly people. Also i would say its one of the fastest developing city in thailand. Seriously lot happened in 17-18 years. I also noticed in this time that many farangs started to come to khon kaen from udon or around cities. I can say it took the capital city of Esan area from Udon for sure. Great city to live in. Really nice shopping areas. there are some really nice italian and other countries restaurants. Although i wouldnt expect too much international shopping in khon kaen. There are some but not like bangkok area.

i would go Savanakhet. Well known by its friendly stuff and procedures. -
Same thing happened to me about many years ago at Cambodia (the one near bangkok) border. That was the time IO started not to accept people using non-o multi marriage visa. He told me im abusing the visa (and he was right) and will let me do the run one last time. And YES, he wrote a note with red color that if i try again it must be denied. So its true. But mine was land border not air. And he didnt mention anything about 1 year ban. All i can say is that he did write in red about last time doing this and no more that was the time i decided to use an agency.

well we all know the list they provide on their website or other places is usually very different then what they really want at the immigration or the embassy. If i were you, i would let the HR or the lawyer reach the embassy and found out whats needed. Via telephone is the best. They usually answer sending the link so it might not help again if you email them good luck

What do you think about ASEANNOW new aggressive adverts?
problemfarang replied to problemfarang's topic in Forum Support Desk
hi guys, i think this topic is off from what i intended. My point was i see adverbs everywhere and its kind of annoying and what other people think about it. I didnt want or mention someone tells or explain how to block them or avoid seeing these. its very normal that a website use adverbs to earn money or keep the website going. thanks to all Moderators that actually understood the topics and let it go so far. i dont want this topic goes off from the track so if any Moderator close the topic that would be nice. @blackcab or @Crossy please. thanks again -

Medical tourism? Right, double-charging foreigners!
problemfarang replied to unblocktheplanet's topic in Health and Medicine
no offense or else but just want to know is it more expensive where you are from? do you have social security or insurance? if no, how you can stay and live in thailand? the numbers you wrote are.. really not that much for something needs a very special treatmenh, and you are talking about some really special equipment. I dont think you can find this equipment in every hospitals in Europe or in the USA too. the equipment you are talking about is around 5000-6000 usd I also really understand it is not cheap if you dont have the money, and i respect that. I have been there in my life. And health is money. Sorry for that. Who ever said money cannot give you health is the biggest lier. But for a very special equipment 40-50K is nothing. I know some people paid 100K or 400K for something not even important as your case. And i rally hope you will get well soon -
well the topic says all. I'm sure everyone noticed that this great source of information website began a really aggressive and (at times) annoying advertisement campaign. It is all over my screen or my mobile and sometimes blocks my view or my mouse clicks.. Really large icons.. or flashing things.. at the bottom of the webpage.. at the corner.. it really started to be like some click bate website thing! It starts from the homepage and it gets bigger when you click on some topics to read. That is the worst one. There is a full-screen advertisement that pops up whenever i click a topic to read.. Another thing is that sometimes when the homepage comes up, I click a little bit quickly and then the link I click goes down and it makes me auto-click the advertisement. i really know it is not easy to keep a website live. I did some websites and related professional income in my.. young life. So i know its not easy.. but i never disturb any user with advertisements. thats another thing. So I was wondering what your thoughts were on this. Again, I'm not trying to start an argument or anything else. I just want to mention something that has been starting to happen for 3-4 months now or a little bit more. Please be objective. We all know and agree that money and income are important, but does it really worth disturbing a lot of people? PS: i almost forgot.. its also so annoying to see BIG advertisements when you are reading posts in a topic.. between every 2 or 3 posts there is this BIG advertisements on your way down to read.. I hope i could explain what i am trying to say or explain about the new policy of aseannow with advertisements.. thank you

Do I need to register to re-enter Thailand
problemfarang replied to OzMan's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
yes can you can print it. Also they can scan the QR if they want. For thai side all you need is to take a screenshot of your morpor app and print it. But again im not sure for OZ side. Tbh it should be enough -
By family if you mean a thai wife or a husband, you can get non-o multi only. Apply in the morning and get it afternoon the next day. -5000 baht -original and copy of the marriage certificate -original Kor2 (your wife can get it from Amphue) -copy house book -copy wife id (sign by wife) -copy your passport -2 photo of you for the form. Everything must have 2 copy and your signature. Only wife will sign house book and ID Good luck

As been told you can get it at the airport. The IO officer will also remind you or ask you if you want to get a re entry or not. Thats what happened to me. If you say yes he will lead you where you can get it. Airport is better than the immigration in city. It takes really short time to get it at the airport. Its a counter before you reach to passport check.

Do I need to register to re-enter Thailand
problemfarang replied to OzMan's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
International certificate might be good. But my thai Morprom is also in english and have QR code which is a direct link to the minister of health thailand and again its in english. When i left thailand 3 or 4 months ago print of the screenshot of morprom was enough. On the thai site they didnt even checked it but they wanted to see before the immigration. Hope this info helps -
