  1. Some of it, but your version is way way over the top.
  2. When I complete the online TA application form can I submit 2 or 3 files for one question? I found a way to convert basic or PDF files to JPEG files but it leaves each page (3 pages) as 3 separate JPEG files and they are in a WIN ZIP file, and I can't find a way to combine the 3 single JPEG pages into 1 easily accessed JPEG file. Hence my question just above. Thanks.
  3. That depends on the type of visa being held. For some visas your point is correct, others types don't need annual health insurance. Permanent Resident holders don't need to have annual health insurance. However the requirements to enter Thailand 'Thailand Pass' do apply to all people entering and therefore a short term Covid- 19 health insurance does apply. Dhipaya Insurance have a policy which covers foreigners up to 99 years old, and you can select the total period of cover (30 days, 60 days etc.). PR holders do need to have an exit/re-entry stamp. At the Immigration office you can select: - 'Single entry' (one trip out and return), or - 'Multiple entry' (unlimited trips out and in for one year starting from the day the multiple entry stamps are placed in your passport and in your Certificate of Residence book.
  4. And with a local highly respected medical institution AFTER you arrive. Don't expect that a letter written in the US or wherever in English will sway anybody here in Thailand.
  5. You might get more support here and in the public if you have a letter from a highly respected Thai institution (not a local unknown hospital/doctor and not from a nurse) and it includes the specific/detailed reason* why you claim to be exempt. *I guess you're aware that many folks cannot see/understand that a mask is dangerous to a persons health. And I guess you're aware that many people expect everybody to have respect for others and contribute to limiting the spread of the virus.
  6. These hi-so as mentioned are very powerful 'self entitled' people who are selfish and they know well how to delete any hindrance to achieving their selfish wants. Been like this for many years and not likely to change. New 'managers' who get in their way very likely to be quickly removed. I wonder if there's any recent data about numbers/monetary value of freebees and the 'types' of people who get the freebees?
  7. How do the Thailand Pass people know your date/time of arrival at Suvarnabhumi?
  8. Regarding 'Thailand Pass'; How do the gov't agencies involved know your date of arrival?
  9. From a MOFA Q and A site: If date of flight etc., changes don't try to change your application. Just quickly resubmit the whole application with new info. Maybe answers your question.
  10. Good info, thanks for sharing. Did you notice is there's a maximum file size (jpeg file) to submit in the TP online application
  11. Yep, 90% of all Thai families receiving massive support money each and every month from farang.
  12. It's floating around but being careful not to bump into the Sydney harbour bridge, which also has many owners/been sold many times by keen marketers/scammers.
  13. "... Thailand just went the wrong way on this reopening. There are few countries in the world that can quickly develop a online app to handle entry & Thailand is not one of them 10k applied...4k issued??? Think that is good? What will happen if any real traffic starts?? (Not too worry real traffic will not come while all these hoops exist) Look at their history of online apps....90 day check in online...Look at the Chiang Mai Que system for visa extension appointments....all blew up Not to mention data breach etc etc..." But it seems there's several thousands of arrivals every day, so the app is not a total failure.
  14. And don't forget if kids do (where allowed) ask questions about the lesson/subject older teachers and the much old teachers now in the ministry (and some young teachers) take the view that if a student asks a question it's a direct suggestion that the teachers didn't teach/explain the learning item very well. An insult to the teacher. My Thai son had issues with this from a different perspective, He did the last 3 years of high school in Singapore (his English level not a problem, he grew up totally immersed in both Thai and English and is at native speaker level with both languages. At HS in Singapore he loved the student centered learning approach and the project based learning approach. He also loved that teachers put strong focus on ensuring that kids knew 'the answer' but also 'knew why the correct answer was correct. A big focus on 'why'. He came back to Thailand to do a 5 year Education degree. When he did work experience in Bkk he organized the class in changing small teams and taught using student centered / project based learning and with a lot of time explaining why the correct answer was correct etc. But, several times the Thai teachers in nearby class rooms realized he was doing things very differently and they complained loudly to the headmistress and demanded it stop. The second time they protested the headmistress asked my son if other teachers could sit in the back of his room to observe. He agreed. (In fact she spoke very advanced English and had taught for several years in a progressive high school in Canada.) The headmistress also told the Thai teachers that the method my son was using is coming to Thailand and they should take advantage of an opportunity to see what the new teaching really looks like. This outraged the older style teachers, and at the protest meeting turned into claims that the teachers were being insulted and disrespected and they demanded that my son be dismissed from the school that day. And he was. They also demanded and got a written promise from the headmistress that she would never mention 'new methods' ever again. Change is not on the agenda.
  15. Thanks for the comments. I just realized that if: - I use the scan option in my HP basic home printer/coper/scanner*, and - set the scan output to be a jpeg file, before starting the scanning, - I can scan multiple documents, then save/create a file - all done, all jpeg documents in the file created. Super easy (*HP DeskJet 2310/2131)
  16. Any suggestions please free easy to use app. to convert multiple .doc or .pdf etc., documents to jpeg format for submission to Thailand Pass. Thanks.
  17. Any suggestions of a good free easy to use application to convert multiple .doc documents or multiple .pdf documents to jpeg documents? Thanks.
  18. Do if someone takes a screenshot is that a special type of file or just a simple basic file?
  19. You have been given at least 2 sites which list hotels match your needs/the regulations. Check them.
  20. Forget the main 5/6 star hotels, most are not approved for this purpose/don't have the package items required by the current government health/quarantine regulations . Check this website: https://asq.in.th/thailand-pass
