But if that's true maybe (hopefully) the new MFP / PTP gov't will quickly enact changes to the laws re: - selection of senators (hopefully by voting) and remove any process which automatically favors / appointment of military/police/retired nilitary of police. - remove their right to participate in the selection of the PM.

Does the driver also get discount on the M150 energy drink?

The applicant must have proof of holding a Thai Work Permit continuously for 3 years and still hold the WP at the date of applying and for further time. The applicant must also submit written proof that their personal Tax Thai returns for th same period have been submitted and totally clearly (paid). Holding a work permit also means that the applicant must have a visa which aligns to holding a work permit. You need to check whether the visas you mentioned do align to holding a work permit.

There is no screen shot. - I get notification of a new message (near the bell symbol) - I click on the bell. - The new message summary comes up on my screen. - I click on the new message summary to open the full new message. - It doesn't open.

As above. Third time I've sent message to forum support re this issue. Early this morning it seemed to be fixed. Now it's happening again. Please advise, thank you.

However his followers (there's many) have every right to keep pushing and being seen to push.

Seems to me that, because it's an open spoken vote in front of all in attendance very few of the senators will give him their vote. They would get 'punished' in some way by their military brothers.

ored, so My Thai wife was a doctor of medicine and an orthopedic specialist, sadly now departed. She died of lung cancer from her fathers continuous chain smoking, as did her 2 sisters and her mother.

Not the point, is it!

My error, my apology.

True, they have one though/direction/objective only ... the glory of the military and it's right (in their beliefs) to always and forever 'manage' the country.

What happens in the US is not the world benchmark, I'm aware in many European countries and Oceania countries a 1 month or 2 month deposit is normal. And it's normal / standard practice in Thailand.

There's a dedicated online visa site operated y the VN Immigration Bureau, in English for online visas to enter VN at Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi. The online site is easy to use and all done in 24 hours. Once issued print a copy, arrive at the arrival airport and go straight to the 'foreign passports' lines. No hassles at all. I've used this method about 10 times, always worked well. I've visited both cities many time to lecture at VN universities, everywhere I went people were friendly, helpful, and polite. Yelling/loud talk/being demanding is not appreciated, the locals will just ignore you. Had one US American professor tried to berate, be abusive to the students (*all around 19 to 25 years old) about the VN war 65 years ago. Students quickly contacted the dean who promptly came to the classroom and told the professor to cease and insisted the professor leave the campus immediately , contract to teach cancelled, and go back to hotel. If needed call the uni admin and they would help to get an immediate return to US booking. Not difficult to find English speakers. Both cities and the regional areas are quite clean. Food is great and easy enough to find western food, good prices. Plenty of large well stocked clean supermarkets with lots of western products, reasonable pricing. Taxis can sometimes try to overcharge, but doesn't happen that often. Common enough in many countries. It's not a good idea to hail a very small taxi, the interior space is just big enought for a small VN person. Westerners won't fit in. Hope this helps, good luck.

Wow thanks, this is very valuable information. The step edge does look exactly like the picture. Much appreciated. Do you have any suggestion where I could buy the item in the photo, anywhere in Thailand, personal shopping or online? Or do you have a specific industry 'name' for the item, so that I could search online? Any suggestions much appreciated. Thanks again.

Perhaps this is possible in some extreme situations where there is BOI approved investment but I doubt it. Further into the above quoted legal services website: " What Are the Benefits of Being a Permanent Resident in Thailand? If you are granted Permanent Residence in Thailand, you can avail these advantages: You can apply for an accessible work permit;" This conflicts with an earlier clause in the law company webiste saying that PR holders don't need a work permit. And there's more errors in the law company website. The reality from the actual experiences of hundreds of PR holders: For standard situations where the foreigner is an employee of a Thai company then Work Permits are definitely needed*, as a serious pre-requisite to gaining PR and after PR is approved. (*And to get a work permit the foreigner must be employed by a Thai registered company.)

And it has serious errors: "Benefits of permanent residence in Thailand -Ease of buying property, business, no ned to apply for work permit."

Actual numbers were published a few years back: Typical data: - Total max. allowed for a country = 100, but in reality total actually approved 20 or even much less. I shared earlier, the year I got PR the total approved for my country was 5.

But I have PR already (27 years) so I don't have any visa problems, therefore no need for an agent. I'm not suggesting 'no need for 90 day reports' is a major benefit of PR. And in reality many visa holders do it online or a quick Imm. office visit. So 'they' is not needed at all.

Thanks for sharing, suddenly it works correctly. Magic!

I get a number near the bell, I click on number near the bell and I get a list of the notifications, I click individually on each of the notifications, none will open... What am I doing wrong?

True of course. History (some of this from gossip) old company in CM went into hibernation about 20 years ago because founder too old to continue. About 10-12 years back his 2 sons returned to LOS after studying civil eng. and marketing abroad. Father gave the dormant company to the sons who did some research and discovered there was a good market for good quality moo bahn villages, and overall CM folks are not poor plus a sizeable influx of well healed BKK folks wanting to buy good quality/good size land & house for the future. Ours was the first village in the reopened dev. coy., and they have establshesd a very good name, now on about the 10th village.

Interesting, thanks. Any hints where I could buy the kit or the name of the repair kit, much appreciated.

Developer is checking with the builder on this point right now. Developer came to look and was a bit horrified. He took sveral photos and says he's sent them to the builder, waiting for a response. He's concerned is that the same might develop in many houses in the same village and in other villages they have developed.

Previously checked this before we agreed to laminate: - The actual step is hardwood including the front of the step then all covered by laminate.

Top floor of house has laminate flooring, installed when houes built 10 years ago. House in a good quality gated moo baan. Builder & developer good reputation for quality materials/quality construction/good attention to detail etc. House came with 1 year warranty (now well past the warranty period). As in the photos there's just one spot where the 'plastic/laminate' around the curve of the step has started to peel. Total 24 steps, no peeling or disintergration on any other step. No obviousreason/factor why th peeling should be on the top step or any step. Took photos to Global, Thai Watsadu, Global, Home Pro asked if they have any suggestions or if they could share name of repairs person. Total blank response. Hoping a member can share some advice or share the name of an experienced 'technician' to do repairs. Thanks.
