  1. In France, we call them "paper French" !
  2. I read the fine for vaping was 30 000 bahts + few months in prison https://aseannow.com/topic/1334318-vaping-troubles-british-tourists-warned-of-costly-holiday-mistake/
  3. Then he cannot fly back to his country?
  4. Obama meddled in french presidential election in 2017, when he supported Macron. UE union is currently meddling in Georgia I do not see any difference
  5. In Thailand, the term "farang" (ฝรั่ง) is commonly used to refer to foreigners, particularly those of European descent or with light skin. It is derived from the word "Français", meaning French, but over time, it has come to denote Westerners more generally.
  6. Because withdrawals fees at ATM are high and Visa rate of exchange bad. Before using wise, I always brought cash with me then deposited it to Bangkok Bank account after conversion at SuperRich or X-One. ATM with thai card or App only.
  7. I always stay at the same condo whenever I comeback to Thailand. I thought I could use the same TM30 but I noticed that the owner had filled in the check-out date which is mentioned as optional on the printed TM30. So I guessed a new TM30 was needed now that I am back and I asked my owner not to mention the check-out date which is optional. He tried but told me he was not possible to validate the TM30 without mentioning a check-out date. Is there a bug in their application ? It is supposedly optional but you have to fill it in.
  8. The future of UK and Europe ?
  9. Wash by hand as the Washing machine didn't work ?
  10. Manoutcher Kamel Kamai doesn't sound swiss
  11. Will she get at last 70 millions (100-30) ?
  12. I never transfer euros. Bankgok Bank rate of exchange is very bad. I convert euros to bahts with Wise which uses the real rate of exchange then transfer from Wise to Bangkok Bank. Small conversion fees. I usually plan an automatic conversion when a given ROE is reached. Wise charges small tranfer fees (44 bahts for transfer equivalent to 4000 euros) Bangkok Bank charges no fees when received from Wise
  13. 98 billions euros US aid and 81 billions EU aid as at August 2024
  14. I am french and think that @Tailwagsdog is right
  15. For more than 179 days It starts at 180 days But I think they will count the days including the day of arrival as 1, so I think it should be no more than "western" 178 days
  16. What would have happened if you didn't go to the Customs ? If in all cases you cannot get your parcel, maybe better to try and not get there if they don't force you to ?
  17. My doctor answered me by email that Permixon was not essential (only more urination) but I preferred to buy it anyway at Chula MD Pharmacy . It cost 490 THB for 30 tablets, around 13.40 euros. 625 THB at Boots. In France it costs 15 € for 60 tablets, which I need for one month, and I don't pay.
  18. Was the description of the content different when they noticed your parcel ?
  19. Thanks But is it safe on Lazada ? Real drugs? You seem to be knowing Permixon
  20. Thanks. Equivalence/ generic is a not a problem but buying in a pharmacy is probably safer, even with generic. Many fake/counterfeit drugs online. They have Permixon in Thailand. Boots could get it within 3 days
  21. I understand this pharmacy is cheaper than Boots but are the prices cheaper than in any other "real" pharmacy like Chula MD Pharmacy 942 25 Rama IV Rd, Si Phraya, Bang Rak which is much closer to my place ?
  22. OK Thanks Better not to bother with this then I will buy in Thailand and follow Lorry's advise
  23. Thanks for your anwser. I am staying in Silom. The medicine is innocuous. It is Permixon used to to treat symptoms related to benign prostatic enlargement. It would be 2 boxes with 180 pills each for 90 days treatment. What would happen if they cared ? They would just confiscate it of would I get in trouble ? I just felt it was stupid to pay a high price (arround 190 euros at Boots' price for something I had for free). In France I need a prescription from my doctor. Apparently no prescription is needed in Bangkok. It takes 3 days fro them to get it.
