Do Filipinas make better wives than Thais?
HaoleBoy replied to Brian Nose's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Yes, and Thai food is better than Filipina food IMO. Now are Thai women sexier and more romantic than Filipinas? I don't know that ... -
"the people who were injured would get 4,000 baht, those who were disabled by the fire would get at 13,300 baht, and the families of the dead people would get 29,700 baht" Amazing how little injury, disability and life are worth here in Thailand. It was reported that the club was reported to be operating without a license back in June (operating after hours). Apparently the police knew all about this place and it not having a license ...

PM spars with Move Forward MP during censure debate
HaoleBoy replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
For what specifically? Failing the country in his actions? For telling so many lies? What is it you think he should be so proud of? -
Thai PM hits back at Opposition leader’s allegations in censure debate
HaoleBoy replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Prayut said: "He claimed that the government has a vision for Thailand’s future in its 20-year national strategy, which aims to reform the country in all aspects, including economic restructuring through innovation." If Pinocchio is so insightful regarding all things Thai, then why didn't he institute a 20 yr plan for the Thai military while he was in charge there? I didn't see anything in his 20 yr plan regarding the RTP ... everything is just fine there? I do remember Pinocchio said he would reform the RTP just after his coup, but .... -
PrikPot Sparks Thailand’s Online Cannabis Market
HaoleBoy replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Any info on buying seeds online? Is it legal to put your condo as the "ship to address"? Or would it be better to ship to a Thai persons address? I have a green thumb and would love to have a couple of plants growing in my house and outdoors. I talked to one shop in CM, High Queen, and they recommended SeedsMan.com ... can others recommend other note worthy seed shops to order from? A Thai friend gave me a CR seed shop, but they only have feminized seeds and no AutoFlowering seeds ... Are there other Thailand seed shops? -
PrikPot Sparks Thailand’s Online Cannabis Market

I would love to see a "underground" tours set up to go to these quality growers. Much like wine tasting in California! -
Might be better than having the Chinese come in and build / run casinos in Thailand as they are doing in Cambodia and other places. The Chinese even tried to open a casino in N. Mariana Islands (a US territory close to Guam). The Governor there is currently under indictment for bribery, money laundering and more ...

How will new 'red' plates be handled? These are re-used when given out after buying a new car / truck. New motorcycles do not always get a "red" plate when bike is first bought. This is province (or city??) dependent (Bangkok - no, Pattaya - yes, ... ). If no plate then ??? Can we all assume any tickets sent in the mail prior to this getting posted in the Gazette are just fire starter? When we foreigners move we must update our license address (or re-register our cars / motorcycles) when going to a new province - get a new province plate. Thai's do not have to so how will this be enforced for Thai's?

‘Tourism fee’, now for all travellers to Thailand, ready to launch
HaoleBoy replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
What is the existing "exit" fee that is applied to airline tickets? Is it for ALL tickets or foreigner tickets only? -
I think 1 way to stop some of the "tech" immigration is to cutoff the piggy-back immigration; the ability that these tech workers can bring their parents and other family over after they have gotten their green-cards. The Mexicans are needed in almost every state doing jobs most Americans will not do - working in the fields, slaughter houses, mowing lawns, maids and janitors ...

A lot of what you say is true, but I feel you have this backwards about Chinese / India immigrants. The India immigrants I knew in the tech world would not go back to live in India and had a hard time going back to visit family there. The Chinese in tech I always felt they were more loyal to their mother country. Huwei engineers and others. Keep in mind that regarding "tech" workers most have finished graduate degrees in the US. And only the very top 1-2% of graduate students from China / India end up going to US graduate programs.

All in the name of corporate greed. IBM gave their big 370 machines to companies in China just to get a foothold there - next HP, MS and others followed suit ... Then these companies complained to the US Gov to stop the IP problems. It was the company problems to start with and their basic corporate greed.

So as the lady in TX was driving in the carpool lane since she was pregnant, will the a state government allow a pregnant woman to claim an extra dependent on state income taxes? The woman is eating for two and buying new things just for the baby ... (TX doesn't have state income taxes but other of these hypocritical state governments do.) Would be nice to get the OLD mostly men out of government and let some reasonable people get involved - both sides.

Checkout "Yellow Pug" in CM. You can buy some weed and Craft Beer at same place. Although, they didn't know the % THC of the weed they sold. Maybe you can smoke outside ... I'm not sure. Had a place like this in California ... Craft Beer in the back .25 of the warehouse and Craft Weed in the front .25 ... in between they were growing the weed.

Are you getting the seeds online and via DHL?

Insurance firms cheated out of ฿500m in fake COVID-19 insurance claims
HaoleBoy replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Insurance companies as bad as used car salesmen. Willing take your money, then look for any way possible not to pay a claim be it some bullsh*t "pre-existing condition" or some other reason. -
Traffic offenders in Thailand who fail to pay fines may face arrest
HaoleBoy replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
What happened to the national database of traffic offenses and the "new" point system the RTP spoke about last year? Did they forget about this already? Or possibly could not implement it ... How many currently drive with no valid license and they can't stop this ... -
Didn't a satellite Immigration office just move to KSK after Promenade died? Where will the new "satellite Immigration" go now?
