Well if someone is pushed to a river causing a drowning what autopsy will show that?

Yes,, but don't forget they already charge tourists 700B which is included in your flight ticket,, and if you think that it will stay at 300B, think again... 

Still, if people whine and moan over an additional $10 or even $30 after spending thousands of dollars on flights and hotel's they should not even step foot out of their own house let alone on a plane.

Well just because you/others can or do does not mean it makes sense.  

I think you don't make sense?

They tried changing Saigon to Ho Chi Min and the hole of Vietnam still call their capital Saigon as it doesn't matter what the new name is, its will still be known as Bangkok.

As I work nights and have a hard time sleeping in the days, I found out the closest sleeping pills to Lorazepam, Clonazepam and Zolpidem at walk in Pharmacies these days that you can get is Desirel (Trazadone) which is a sedative and at only 60 bht for 10 pills, I take 2 about half an hour before sleep and I'm out like a light.

My kids In Kalasin have only gone to school for about 1 week for the past year. I understand about the covid risk but depriving a childs education all because of an incompetent clueless local school board there not knowing how to handle the situation and think online classes in the only answer.

Anybody know if I can get a 60 day extension to visit my wife as I'm currently on a covid extension which will expire next month and I was on on a Non o extension of stay based on marriage before that which expired a year ago.

So Thailand gets slave labour from Burma and Camobodia, and Saudi Arabia in turn wants slave labour from Thailand. 

 

Odd chain. 

Considering what the average monthly salary for Thai laborer's is in Thailand, These Thais that go over to Saudi to work will be making a lot more then what they can make in Thailand.

For me it would be a pain in the ass to go to Immigration that many times.
With extension based on marriage you have to go 2 times and then you safe for 1 year. With covid Extension you had to go 6-12 times for 1 year.

True, butt as I don't have the 400K in my bank, its cheaper to to a covid extension then pay an agent, plus my local immigration is very easy to deal with, very fast, they even fill the applications for me.

obviously not from long term farangs that pay only 1900 bath a year for annual marriage extension or retirement

For us that use an agent for Marriage extensions, it works a lot cheaper to pay 1,900 bht every 60 days for a covid extension which works to 11,400 bht for the year then pay an agent 25k to arrange my marriage extension. 

I just did my 4th consecutive 60 day covid extension at Kalasin immigration yesterday. No questions asked, in and out in 10 minuets. I didn't even fill the applications, just sign, picture, pay and stamp. Only needed, photo, passport copy, wife's ID and house papers. That's it. Feel sorry for you guys in Bangkok that are going through the ringer at that immigration office.

Guess he got his severance, Thai style.

Those commandoes look like cartel hitman. 

Try Bumrungrad and Bangkok Hospital as I had friends that got their booster shots there.

Lek closed again or just not doing the buffet.? 

They have been closed now for over a year.

I saw a YouTube video of a falang in Phuket who tested positive for covid and was forced to go to a local Thai quarantine facility. The place looked like straight from a banged up abroad episode.

Lek Hotel was one of best breakfast buffets in Pattaya as you really couldn't go wrong at 150 bht. Plenty of choices. To bad their still closed.

But they are open already!

They are referring to enclosed bars, discos, karaoke, go go bars, night clubs. 

I have 3 back to back Covid extensions at Kalasin immigration and each time 60 day stamps. No questions asked. It depends which office.

By the way things are looking, my guess January 16, 2023 is a realistic opening date.

I beg to differ and I'm Israeli. Majority of Israelis speak broken English. Not perfect at all.
