I also suffer from intense night cravings, but I just deal with it the natural way plus some trick to fool the brain. What helps me most is plain soda that you can find anywhere for reasonable prices and it fills your stomach giving a false sense of satiety and is caffeine-free so anytime, one bottle and there's less hunger. I've been here for just over a month and dropped quite a bit of weight doing intermittent fasting. Record is 5 days at a time without food so it can be done and then you can treat yourself to a japanese hot pot buffet. This is how it works if you are serious about weight loss, physical activity aside. Good luck!

I wonder who made that assumption. A Thai in a prefecture not very well known for being in contact with foreigners is a good recipe for miscommunication. Being a non-Japanese detainee I can see why nobody cared much about that lady's demisee either.

Let's wait for an investigation to determine the root cause of the incident. Safety regulations, standards and procedures is also a good metric to define first world status. If you have solid prevention measures, rescue and evacuation may not even be needed and its expediture obviously goes down. The fact that the building is not public doesn´t mean that the government should not be held accountable if there are some holes in the safety standards that private businesses must observe. I see many reports of accidents involving what it seems ill prepared workers and there have been infamous incidents involving fires at venues to happily give Thailand first world status for displaying some glimpses of modern equipment in the capital's city center.

Clearly not a dealer. Why would Thailand want to host a petty offender in their overcrowded jails? A judge would release him before trial and "forget" to take away his passport so he flees and never comes back if it wasn´t for the overstay. My take is that police will try to get a substantial cut and ship him right after. Everybody has a happy new year this way.

That's why it's best to get wasted by the 7-11 from unopened liquor and mixers while saving money in the process.

That place you call "America" is full of immigrants. Some got the a bit before others, that's all. You´re one of them unless fully native.

That was well before 2023. Rule tightening in Thailand is always relative though. I'm quite convinced it could still be possible for someone to open an account there if persistent enough. You might wanna purchase a condo and need to transfer money from abroad. That's one scenario/excuse. Krungsri and UOB seemed safest bets, but Bangkok Bank could also be possible. I remember they just wanted me to provide a copy of my condo rental and a certificate from my embassy as a registered non-resident in Thailand. I just wanted the easiest one and Krungsri had more ATMs at 7-11 and more branches overall than UOB so I went with the yellow bank. Always cool people working there.

Krungsri let me open an account as a tourist and it came in handy. I´ve been away for a while but I can still log in so I hope they don´t close it down. One can get THB and deposit to shop and stuff. So Im a fan of Krungsri.

I believe they did that on purpose to deter people from taking naps or any extended stay there in groups. That's precisely the materials I'd choose if the goal was to prevent loitering to an extent, even if that only works during the sunny hours. I've seen many Thais taking naps during daytime there and it didn't bother me at all, but who knows if they wanted to get rid of that somehow.

Thailand is quite big. Not just Bangkok. I hope they provide 60+30 days on land border runs too as it would require just 1 for a 180 day/year stay.

They've been arrested in Cameroon and both were identified as Cameroonians according to this source https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/2024/02/17/two-burmese-murder-suspects-will-be-sent-from-cameroon/

Singapore don't allow their residents to even access the casino. Same policy for Thailand and problem solved. Lucrative business for Thailand.

She got the cardio and quads done in advance.

the torso is still missing, so I doubt they can charge him 100%.

Judging by that avatar, your kind have never killed a fly in world history.
