I think powerful slingshots are illegal in Thailand. however you can order a " Bait spreader" which looks remarkably like one. A bag of marbles - a little practice and then one night discreetly Fido goes home suddenly. It won;t kill or main the animal but will give it a stern reminder not to come back again.

Worked for me - it was the policeman's dog in the street under my window routinely stuck on " bark - wait 3 seconds - repeat." The last bark ended with a yelp and Fido went home right away.

Now if he hears my upstairs window open he remembers and all is calm.

I agree, CM immigration is very efficient and foreigner friendly now. They also told me no TM30 unless you return from overseas." I heard the adjacent IO tell this to another Farang at the same time and they had a sign displaying the same message.

Stop spreading negative BS.

This morning I attended Chiang mai Immigration TM30 desk. An official sign clearly posted on the back of the monitor where I sat said that a TM30 report needs to be submitted if the foreigner living at the address returns after leaving the country. We had spent 5 days traveling in Kanchanaburi a month ago so I expected that to come up on their screens. It either didn't or more likely was ignored.

So as I understand it from this morning : In CNX your TM 30 is required if you re enter the country and that is it. It is currently not required if you travel locally.

Both the officers working at the counter repeated the message on the posted sign to me and another Farang So as far as I am concerned that will apply unless notified otherwise by the Immig Dept.

Thank you to Isaanlawyers for his excellent work.
