  1. if your renewal date lines up while your there and you will be available for any other check ins that they may want to do then yes you can. Your length of stay in the country only affects your extension if you leave without a reentry permit. Otherwise it's good the whole time. Get a Non Imm O and you dont need insurance like the OA
  2. We have a cafe in a small rural town in NST and are doing ok but sales are down about 10 % this year as well as food and drink supply cost at up about 20%. I repriced our menu and got rid of most non performers restuaraunts are a high cash flow business with lower profitability of typically 5% over all costs. Every other shop owner i know said I was crazy and would lose customers so they didn't want to follow. I explained that i may lose a few customers, but i wouldn't be losing money on every order we filled. They could not understand this concept. We are still here while most all the other shops are gone or have turned over at least 1 time in 8 to 12 months. The problem is what you outline most often. They see someone else with a business 2 shops down and immediately think they can do it too. The renovate (maybe) but buy up all the needed equip and supplies. They buy in bulk on the supplies to get a discount. They are notorious poor money managers and tie up all their cash and have nothing to support the everyday needs until they can build a customer base which often will take a year or more. The first 3 months they are popular because its new but after that without something different or special your just 1 more shop competing with noodle shops and carts up and down every soi
  3. The damage on the outside of the building appears to be coming from neglect either by the tenant above for the balcony drainage issue and the water off the roof issue as a building issue. This is a huge red flag that neither were fixed by the building as in a condo typically the exterior envelop, meaning outside walls, windows, roofing major supply equipment etc are master entity items and funded by your condo fees. Thats the purpose of condo fees is to provide a capital base to maintain master entity items and also common entity items like hallways,, elevators, pools carpets etc. If the management has neglected these for long periods you need to know what the condo fee is going to, is it properly calculated to maintain the building with a 25 year Capex plan and why havent the issues been fixed. Repairs can be done fairly easily but if the managwment of the condo is lacking, which sounds to be the case, then that aspect wont change and the building will continue to degrade affecting your investment and lifestyle and you will have very little recourse for correction1
  4. Now, Now, you are questioning the intelligence of a man that picked fights with monkeys in Lop Buri and was then insulted that the police wouldn't go and apprehend them and press charges!
  5. You avoided the issue of you not even being a US citizen, are you???? Why are you continually arguing for trump based on falsehoods , misleading information and fake facts? The courts are carrying out their duties as indicated by the laws of the USA. Maybe read up on the Constitution, Separation of powers and why we have that in the US and stop trotting out the lame cliche " he's just doing what he was elected to do" bs. He wasnt elected to ignore the laws and the Constitution, trample on human rights and threaten legal action on anyone that he doesnt like or opposes him.
  6. By the left fighting trump you are referring to the Constitution, right?
  7. Isnt trump trying to impose his misguided nonsensical "will" on the rest of the world right now?
  8. Theres also a difference between ignorance and knowledge. Trump isnt negotiating anything so you may want to check your position on that. He's just an old, fat, narcissistic megalomaniac schoolyard bully trying to act important and significant on a world stage and international level he is not accomplished or intelligent enough to deal on. He is a buffoon and he's getting his lunch taken away from him. hold on to your panties as the ride is about to begin
  9. Sounds similar to what Putin thinks about Ukraine, and what China thinks about several of its bordering neighbors? Hmmm can you connect the dots.........?
  10. Trump needed no help from MSM or anyone else for people to see an easy comparison between what trump is doing and what Hilter did to the various segments of govt, education, communication and arts as well as the actions to remove freedoms and rights of the segments of the population while he attacked his neighboring countries verbally and physically leading up to a world war. Does the scenerio sound at all familiar?
  11. You mean just like when a Thai gets out of control and does something similar? Yeah I agree, throw them in jail.
  12. Good response to this post. It's a far more complex problem than many want to believe when its a new illness never dealt with in the past and no baseline to judge the best response medically. Its one of the many reasons virus, illnesses, etc are studied in labs. To understand how they function and the potential outcomes so we can hopefully be prepared if a critically needed medical response will be needed. Gain of function research is one method of determining the unknown risks, not just to weaponize them as a tool.
  13. No she was calling you fat, thai word sounds like one
  14. Its most likely because your ed visa stamp wasnt canceled and when the Imm questioned you your answer, even if true, matches the standard excuse of family emergency and when you couldnt answer what is considered an easy question you couldnt so he presumed you may be trying to play the system. you could try applying for a tr visa but may be denied for the same reason. You can try a fast track agent, tell them the whole truth, or a lwayer who can get you info but may not be much more help. I would make sure to explain the family emergency and that you want to clear and close the ED visa if necessary. Contact MOF on their FB page and ask them for guidance.
  15. I dont hear any facts being presented by you or the other minions that have been duped by the conman trump. Pony up with some facts and truth to counter Mike's post or put up or shut up as they say.
  16. It does baffle the imagination and question the mentality of the hardcore cultist. I have come to conclude that the majority are either a similar flawed character type or suffer from Stockholm Syndrome and cant admit to their stupidity.
  17. Now, Now your just gonna confuse the mentally feeble minded trumpettes that are being duped by a conman. The verbal diarrhea they will spew to claim your facts are propaganda or MSM lies will quickly fill the pages although they wont be able to provide any facts, just somehow blame Biden for creating the situation
  18. Killing isnt ever right no matter the race or country but I guess White South Africans dont like being treated like they treated Black South Africans just a few short decades ago do they?
  19. i think its a bs story just for kicks but I'll throw out some comments. She maybe makes 9 to 10k salary a month selling bubble tea. If she has family in the country they most likely already own the land and house so have no house payment or heavy expenses. Food is basically it and maybe gas for the car and electric. They've been living off something in the past and made it this far in life without your help. It doesnt cost more than about 10k to15k all in for food, gas and electric and thats generous so your 30k is a major upgrade and thats just to start. at some point you'll be giving her money too. Your most likey being played which is pretty normal in this scenario and this is just the beginning. if your not seeing her every day then she probably has someone else on the hook too or will soon. If its a true story tell her you cant right now but maybe in the future can help. she how she reacts and if things stay the same or slow down for some "reason". Then go hang out with her and her friends and also meet the family and see for yourself their situation and how they live. By that time you'll know how serious and honest she is. I will add that its not uncommon for many Thai's to happily trade future financial security in place of love. its your money in the end so do what you want.
  20. Looks like you agree finally, good boy! Admission is the first step to recovery. We're discussing Trump in this thread not anyone else. You can start a new thread if you like on those issues.
  21. You arent smart enough to comprehend the topic isn't about Obama its about trump. I think you can find the explanation about trumps admin ignoring and denying due process in the multiple cases he's lost in court already and currently in violation of the judges orders. Research it yourself there's plenty of sites available to you or are you scared to see how inaccurate your claims are and how you've been duped by a conman ?
  22. I know enough to understand you have to uphold the whole constitution and existing laws of the USA as president and you cant pick and choose the ones you like and ignore the rest. You also don't get to cherry pick the parts out of context. You don't seem to be able to comprehend that fact. Come back when you brush up on facts and request a refund from your Trump uni law degree as you fall short
  23. What are you rambling about guns for. I've never raised that issue. The president is tasked with upholding all the constitution and the laws of the USA, not cherry picking singular sentences taken out of the context. Thats why he's losing all his cases in court. Learn to comprehend what you read before you claim to know. Your Trump uni law degree isn't valid so ask for your money back
