That cafe is full with digital nomads/foreigners working online. There are a lot of videos on Youtube about the same with people explaining exactly what they do. Immigration doesn't care if your clients are located in another country.

Probably there is not much you can do.
If you check the IP https://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/45.56.146.37
It says "proxy". The hacker used a proxy server or VPN to hide his real IP address. Probably there is no way to find out his real identity.

They had no work permit. This is work that could also have been done by Thai people.

Keep in mind that even with that huge discount, Chevy is NOT losing money on this deal !
They are simply willing to take less than they'd make.
This is for sure not true. Profit margins in the car industry are not that high. A lot of car manufacturers make a loss. Some don't make a profit. And others a very small profit. No car manufacturer has a 50% profit margin on their cars.

So what happened in places like Libya, Ukraine, Iraq, etc, is better?
In Ukraine it is much better now.
There is no country in this world with a population that for the majority consists of Muslims AND where there is a normal democracy, without oppression of minorities, corruption etc.

international collect call ?
I don't know if this is possible from Thailand. There are other ways to make cheap calls. With something like poivy.com you can enter your (Thai) number on the website, and the (UK) number of the person you want to talk to. First your phone will ring, a couple of seconds later the phone of the person you want to talk to. And it's very cheap.

I bought the Xiaomi Mi Air Purifier 3H recently on Lazada. It is the latest model from Xiaomi. I bought it after reading some good reviews.
It works well and has a PM 2.5 meter with display build-in. They are around 5000 Baht. But hard to get now because there is no new supply coming from China.

the meter installed by the electrical company is 15amps
Currently around 20,000 THB per month
How is this possible ? Max 15 Amp.
With 15 Amp you can use 3300 Watt maximum. That is 3.3 x 24 x 31 = 2455 kWh a month. At 5 Baht a unit this is 12276 Baht a month.
Something is wrong here. Do you pay more than 5 Baht for each kWh you use ?

The airline won't issue boarding pass less than 3 hours prior to flight.
If you check in online you also get boarding passes. Often this is possible weeks before the flight.

2.5 months (they estimated 1 month for the actual repair work)
It's a couple of days work, not a month. It can only take longer if you have to wait for parts.
Bring today, pick up next week. The damage is really not impressive. No vital parts were broken. This damage is easy to repair. 2 1/2 months is ridiculous.

What on earth is going on with HSBC? I have been a Premier client of their Jersey-based offshore operation for more than two decades. This morning I received an email from HSBC Expat (as they are now known) informing me that as of next week no interest at all would be paid
As I write, none of the media seem to have picked up on HSBC's sudden imposition of zero interest rates
Jersey is Europe. Most banks here give 0%. Some banks now even have a negative interest rate, which means that you have to pay them to keep your money. My bank has a negative interest rate if you have more than 100k Euro in your account.
And you cannot blame the banks for this. It is a result of political decisions. The banks are not happy with this either.
And about the media... I think you missed something. This is really old news.

You replied to my post, bu maybe you did not read it or understand it. So I'll repeat it for you: "Disagree, but really don't want to get in another thread about the USA acting as world police.".
Why not? I would love to understand you, so I am really interested in your opinions.

So... You think the US should allow Germany to fund terrorists and criminals operating globally?
Who are we going to call when Russia starts to use the nuclear weapons pointed at EU cities ? The weapons we paid for by buying Russian gas?
Hey, it's the EU calling the US: We were not willing to pay 10% more for US gas but we prefered to fund Russian nuclear weapons and now they are shooting at us! It hurts so much! Can you please come to help us like you did in WW2? Yeah, we need the world police because we were to lazy to even spend 2% of our budget on self defense.

So the list of bombed countries is wrong then?
Maybe yes, maybe no. But the list with countries suffering from actions by Russia is much longer.
And I am mainly looking from a European perspective. Russia is the country that caused most deaths and misery in Europe. Russia means death, oppression, exploitation. Look at what happened after WW2 in Europe. Look at what happened with countries under Russian influence, and look at what happened with countries freed by the US and other western countries. And the same still applies today. Russia is the only country in Europe trying to change borders, waging wars against neighbouring countries, unermining security, pointing nuclear weapons at EU cities.

The arms industry needs wars.
Here a list.
No EU countries in that list.
And about that website:
Wikipedia:
Globalresearch.ca, a Canadian conspiracy theory website operated by Michel Chossudovsky's Centre for Research on Globalization
"the online spread of pro-Russia propaganda and of disinformation."
"key accelerant role in helping popularize articles with little basis in fact that also happen to fit the narratives being pushed by the Kremlin"
Founded by a Russian, spreading fake Russian propaganda. Be careful with what you read online ????

No.
Tell me which crimes the US commit in the EU. Are there US nuclear weapons pointed at EU cities ?
The Russian army is murdering people in European countries at this moment. The US army in Europe is only there to protect us against the Russian criminals. It is not that hard to see the difference.

Paying for Russian gas means paying a criminal and terrorist organisation. Don't forget that Russia is the only country pointing nuclear weapons at EU countries. It's the only country trying to change borders in Europe after WW2. It's the only country occupying territory of other European countries. When you buy Russian gas you pay 2 times. One time for the gas, the other time for the consequences of funding criminals and terrorists.
Germany and Merkel do not care about this. They have a history of committing crimes together with Russia.
Although Trump is a fool, I still prefer gas from other countries, including the US.

I wonder how countries in the EU calculate tourist figures. I might arrive to Italy, travel overland to France and fly out from Germany, never once having to show my passport in France. Would I then not be counted as one of their millions of tourists?
In most (all?) countries in the EU hotels are obligated to collect tourist tax for each night someone stays.
People staying in private homes/airbnb's are not counted. So probably the real numbers are higher.

This is not new. They once asked me half a year ago, and last week again when using another card.
I believe this is not only for foreigners.
It is because now the BTS card can also be used to pay for other things, to hold money etc (Rabbitpay?). And the passport is needed the prevent money laundering. That is the official story.
But now they can also trace everybody travelling. They now know exactly where you go each day. How much time you spend in the country. It has a lot of options together with video surveillance and face recognition. Scary....

To my knowledge you can never have more than 1 birth certificate. There is also no reason for that. You can have the Thai birth certificate legalized, translated etc for use in other countries.

Is marriage an option to stay?
in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Posted · Edited by dimitriv
A complete list for a Certificate of legal capacity to marry from the NL consulate (I am doing the same now)
* een geboortdebewijs (verkrijgbaar bij de gemeente waar je bent geboren)
* een internationaal uittreksel uit het Basisregistratie personen (met vermelding burgerlijke staat). Dit kan bij het gemeentehuis als je ingeschreven staat in NL, Als je niet meer staat ingeschreven in NL: "U vraagt dit internationale uittreksel aan bij een van de gemeenten met een loket voor niet-ingezetenen. Dit zijn de zogenoemde RNI-gemeenten".
* Als je ooit bent gescheiden (maakt niet uit wanneer) dan moet je een kopie overleggen van de echtschedingsakte, verkrijgbaar bij de gemeente waar je bent gescheiden.
* een eigen schriftelijke verklaring dat je na verhuzing uit NL niet meer bent getrouwd.
* Een getuigen en inkomen formulier (te downloaden van website consulaat) waarop u twee Nederlandse (niet Thaise!) getuigen vermeldt. Dit is een eis van de Thaise overheid. Deze personen hoeven niet bij het huwelijk aanwezig te zijn.
* ingevuld aanvraagformulier huwelijksvoornemen (te downloaden van website consulaat)
* passport + copy
I am not sure if you can get #2 and #3 in Thailand. Also not sure if someone else can get these documents for you.
Van uw niet Nederlandse partner
-Een afschrift van een echtscheidingsakte meebrengen als hij of zij eerder getrouwd was.
-Een naar het Engels vertaalde en door Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs gelegaliseerde ongehuwdverklaring van uw toekomstige partner.
-Document with address.
Nadat u de verklaring van huwelijksvoornemen en het getuigen- en inkomen formulier en gewaarmerkte kopie van uw paspoort heeft aangevraagd bij het consulaat dient u alle (dus deze 3) documenten in het Thais te laten vertalen en door het Thaise ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken te laten legaliseren.
These documents you can use to get married. The district office doesn't need anything more from you. So you do not have to translate and legalise your birth certificate and other papers.
