Microsleep meaning: Description of a person falling asleep while driving. (Yes, sure! I know it´s not. Seem to be in Thai news, though.)

This is what Thais do when they're traveling in a vehicle they simply can't keep themselves awake (including the drivers). I think it's a medical thing.

Out of the reason it will be considered as a psychological disorder, it will only be worse to medicate. Just take a look at all the medicated people in mental hospitals. They seem to sleep all the time.

Thailand is once again gearing up for the annual carnage on the roads at New Year.

This is a new world record. Call Guinness!

So much people and so little will be done.

The bad taste on that rubbish will certainly kill quicker than alcolhol. It should be labelled with a 125% tax.

Correct, I said a boxing service not a boxing service offered by a delivery company.

 

It's not rocket science no but I don't want to do it myself. 

I am pretty sure that you can go in to any of the delivery companies I mentioned and ask to pay only for packaging. Or just chose one of the many other transport services. Ask them to carefully pack your products and just pay them for boxes, paper other material as well as work.

There are literally hundreds of similar movie apps on Playstore.

Sure there is. As well as there are hundreds of torrent sites to download from. As all the apps they link to copyrighted material and do not store the things you download on their own servers. It becomes you that follow the link and use the copyright material from the server they have linked to, that is going to be the one definately breaking the law.

You asked if they were illegal, and I´ve explained it to you. Noe you have to understand the information given. There is no other way to explain this, and what I post here for you to understand is 100 % true.

Movie CHD Lite and Movie Hub.

Just look at Movie CHD Lite. Normally there are pictures showing the apps and how they work. They just show a logo. It´s an illegal app that links to other sites and databases that stream the movie to your device. For Google to see all this takes time, but eventually they will take the app away.

The same goes for Movie Hub. Here they have a short description and a database of movies. After that a link to where you can watch it. The app is linking to copyrighted material and that´s why it becomes illegal. Although it´s same hard to prove that as that PirateBay and 1337x is illegal torrent sites. That due to that they do not store any illegal files on their own servers.

I hope that explaination will make you understand how it works. You will always be the one breaking the law by looking at the information provided in the link that is downloaded from another server online.

 Any Google check of free movie apps on Playstore will list dozens of options, are you saying all these are illegal and that Playstore happily allows illegal content to be advertised? https://www.digitbin.com/apps-stream-movies-online-android/ 

I do not need to check that! You are the one that stated it was new movies. If they offer new movies, without any kind of monthly fee or fee per movie. Then it will be illigal.

I can not answer for what Google do. What I do know is that it´s illegal to show new movies that goes in cinema or just come out on sale for free. For that not to be illegal, the maker of the application must pay for all. Do you believe anybody will be that generous?

Without reading the 2 links that has been provided to you, I would say, yes!

I you are applying for a M-visa that is for the things you described already and they ask for an employer on the application for such visa. Then one would assume that it shall be an employer related to the area the apllication for the visa describes.

Thanks for your permission, but I'd like to know not to guess.

But please. I know some people have hard to read between the lines, but I guess you take the first prize in that division.

You are posting that you have downloaded an app that gives you access to all the totally new movies for free! Everyone understands that is illigal distribution of copyrighted material. Or maybe you think that Major Complex have given it out as a christmas and new year promotion to all good kids?

Combo-methods??? I read what you guys write, but do not understand it. I thought that a combo-method includes an income-letter from your embassy and on top of that a sum of money in a thaibank in your own name. I thought THAT was a combo..

 

So plse explain to me so I know for the future.... What kind of combo do you have and is that really a combo??

 

thanks

glegolo

As I understand it you must show monthly transfers to a Thai bank acount as well as a sum in a thai account. If that combined adds up to the 800k per year it will be sufficent.

I might be wrong, and it might be different from office to office too.

IMO it should not be a holiday in Thailand because Buddhists don't believe in Jesus.

And where have you seen that it is a holiday in Thailand. I guess you would do very good in checking the calendar before posting.

I will let you guess yourself.

Ah you must be Thai with that remark. Blame the victims and never take/@dmit responsibility therfore never learning. 

No, as you are well aware of, I am not Thai. You on the other hand seem to be a person that just as well can blame anything that happens to a foreigner out of poor abilities and recklessness as well as everything foreigners do on Thai people. 

Just one thing. You do not have the right to do that!

Mmmm.... if it were a thread on the disastrous use of vehicles in this country, would you state;

so, telling all the nutheads that they should not overrate their poor ability at driving is out of the question?

Yes, I would! As that makes the whole lower part of this post irrelevant to me, I will just let it hang below without any comment.

does that happen? Assumedly not.... as we see world record death numbers.... or they aren’t listening. (Perhaps like beach users, eh?)

 

lets bring that aside back on topic. Begging tourists to visit Thailand whilst glamorizing the many beautiful beaches to incentivize them, requires that authorities then act to protect them on those beaches... their is a duty of care... just as authorities should protect road users, thru regulation, laws, monitoring and proactively preventing those that over rate their skills from harming themselves and others.

 

assumedly, (again) you would agree to that model to improve road safety... logically then you should follow that model to improve safety for beach users, unfamiliar with the area, or who have simply overrated their skills... in a beach area festooned with bars plying as much alcohol as possible on those carefree tourists.

 

it is absolutely bizarre to  see pictures of tourists rescuing other tourists and administering first aid, whilst those supposedly paid and charged with doing this, stand by gawking at the farangs, apparently unaware of their purpose, demonstrating a negligence in training and ability.

 

Australia is more than happy to help train your lifeguards... instead of negativity, promote grabbing that offer by the throat and squeezing every drop of knowledge out of these people, as they turn out some of the best lifeguards in the world.

 

And... one could also well argue that by supplying unqualified lifeguards, the problem is compounded, as it affords false security, adding to the authorities culpability.

 

if you want the tourism dollars, earn it

I know, but as always in thailand they will tell you all another story...

 

But i guess it not depends on the bank since visa, so a seperate company

I am pretty sure they know how to do a chargeback on the cards they provide. Maybe your best choice would be to call tomorrow and request to be transferred to the right department where they also can speak English if you do not master Thai.

Would be best to ask the bank, don´t you think?

Thanks, Sid and Matzzon.

 

I live in a neighboring country and will be visiting Thailand for a week. 

 

I'll check out both of these options.

 

Thanks.

If you have problem getting books in your neighbouring country, then I will be pretty sure that Dasa Book Cafe will agree to send to that country if you agree to pay for the delivery and books in advance.
