Agree.  I for one am glad that Alabama is pushing such an extreme law.  Because it reveals what the anti-abortionist are really about.  If their entire position is that life starts at conception, then there should never be an exception, i.e., abortion is always wrong.  But to most Americans, forcing a woman who was raped to carry the baby of her rapist to term is just cruel and inhumane.  This should open the eyes of Americans who've been sitting on the sidelines about this issue.

If a women is raped then she can take a medicine with name levonorgestrel, she can take it up to 72 hours after being raped, unprotected sex or if the condom simply cracked.

killing humans is illegal and so should it be with humans inside a belly as well,the only exemptions for abortion if your life is in danger, period!

The left seems to enjoy killing babies, and arguing about the right to kill, insane people....

I may live to eat my words but somehow I don't see the 'cashless society concept' catching on in Thailand. A very large percentage of the workforce don't pay tax and many businesses run 'double book keeping'.

 

'Cash' transactions form part of the black economy which is massive in Thailand.  It goes on from the smallest shopkeeper up into large corporations.  My ex Mrs worked for a fairly large Japanese O.E. auto parts manufacturer - her basic salary was paid through the books at a level that kept her out of income tax, the rest, including overtime was paid in cash.

 

I don't doubt that a cashless society is coming in the West but in Asia?  I doubt they could make it work. I wonder if the B.I.B will accept SCB's new card to pay a speeding ticket?

Cashless society = a dumb society 

what to do if you loose your card and you have only one,or the card terminal doesn’t work, or the the electricity is gone there are 1000s or reasons to a cashless society won’t work, we can’t  simply trust technology.

back in the days I used mostly card, I didn’t really think about how much money I spent, I didn’t have the feeling that I have to cash which mean when I hold cash In my hands im less likely to do a spontaneous buy, now I can save money every month something I couldn’t do before.

the laws in Norway I think about accepting cash changed not to long ago which means every shop etc must accept cash, the law have been in place for many decades but haven’t been enforced until recently, but there are no law that says shop needs to accept cards which is good.

cash have come to be forever, and if one day cash are gone your money also would most likely also be gone..

cash is king!

That visa run service is not part of Thai Visa.

I can say that is a reliable company though.

Your school should be aware of what is required since the documents must be addressed to that consulate.
