LOLLLL I mean how much more can they make us laugh with their stupid decisions... Drought is even too bad to do more than 1 day songkran.

You don't deal with passports checks, luggage or customs, if having money to fly private. That is for peasants.

How is it different here?

Unfazed? The city is as death as the air quality is. Songkran is going to be a joke, with mainly cheap locals in pick up trucks, making up the traffic for a busy appearance. One must actually have lost their mind if going here on holidays for songkran right now. These hotel booking figures are absolute garbage, I guess it is counted from a select few hotels and resorts. 70% booked my ass, Chiang Mai would experience insane traffic jams, super full packed places everywhere, if that would ever be the case. It's funny too: every time they come up with these hotel percentages, it is always 60 or 70 %, must be magic. Any Thai with the option, is running away from Chiang Mai for a cleaner air location, already. I can remember some Thai lady working for TAT in Chiang Mai, at few years ago, she was the least intelligent and informed person I ever met.

What a dumb question, it hs nothing do with liking or disliking Trump. It has everything to do with an obvious deep state / corporate maffia, that rapes America and Americans, which people like to see end. But somehow the Hillary clit lickers and especially the older folks, who have pensions and wealth a young American can only think of as a unicorn, love to hate and hate on Trump, the only person who actually seems to confront the issue, in the first place. AKA 90% of people are but lickers. I always thought that it was kind of a joke, when we were told in Europe, that Americans are kind of dumb. I kind of believe it now. No wonder they are the main match and married counts in Asia too. Messed up every war since, well where to even start. Messed up every country that was about to do good. Messed up their own country + Europe. One wonders how can anyone even feel pride in that, unless being absolutely stupid. America is so big, powerful and rich, yet 70% of the population if not more, lives paycheck to paycheck, and would die within weeks if logistics cut of medicine from Asia. Same for Europe. So much for success...

What a surprise, same I asked a question today at a counter, and she just gave me a zero relevant answer, as her superior was watching, I guess she just wanted to pretend she spoke fluent English to me, and as I walked away, that confirmed to her superior she spoke fluent English.... Standard replies, why, nobody with brains is looking at our emails or listens to what we say, it is always zombie sheeps who are taught to not question a single think, let alone to use their brains to their capacity (which still would be little but enough), to solve the issue or answer a simple question.

One wonders if these activists are even smart enough to know their history, as it is the biggest owners in the fossil industries, who invented green energy + own that now too. It's about the same intelligence as most people have who took the death shots AKA super boost cancer shots. Even more funny is that all those people are the ones who get into health and legal issues, while thinking they were saving the world lol. In a way, the way it is thought out and executed, it is brilliant as a Satan. I guess they do save the world, by dying early, and reducing population....

So what is said was right; this a useless suggestion that doesn't work for most people since years, many times debated on this forum. Hence the only alternative was the single entry or multi entry non-o visa for married people in savannakhet aside from otherwise needing the 400K. So again you are in fact the one who caused this topic to go off tracks.

The fun with people who brag about their income in western countries, if you look at their actual costs, free spending power, quality of life, free time etc etc most people are actually better off with like 1000$ a month here, even most here, would say that is not enough here too lol.

Funny most American travellers I came across lately, who are mid 20 or early 30 all seem to be from there.

Netherlands and 80-150K a month, yet I earn this offshore and from multiple sources, even it does come into my Thai account for a good part from overseas, the Dutch embassy would not be able and verify that income, as it is not made in Netherlands. So you would tell me I can still then do this? As most digital workers have same or similar issue. I never spend less than 1 million a year for over a decade already, visible in Kasikorn, yet they hassle me. I should have been given a permanent residence at least, spending like 350K USD from 20-30 years old. And if they not make me leave, it could be another 1.5-2 million USD over life. Why not keep 400K baht in the bank then? I would have lost from 33.5 per 1 EUR to 39.5 per 1 EUR already in the past 2 years again (nearly 2000 euro), I had quite a few holidays to Vietnam with that money, and liked to just obtain a new single non-o instead. Excuse for some alone time too. Just gonna still marry on paper, so I can at least do the 60 day extensions on a 30 day on arrival. Better than nothing for now. Not so sure Thailand is moving in the right direction to stay much longer than a few years more anyway.

Just open the cover of the AC in your next 5 hotels, you will find the filters are extremely dirty, even it's like a 5 minute job to remove and clean those. 9/10 times I get a cold or get sick, it is after I stayed at a hotel.

Both are useless, unless they would buy dozens of those planes.

Income proof still depends on the embassies individually confirming that income too as far I know, that is the entire problem with the 40K in the first place and why everyone is left with the 400K option. Not sure why some posters even suggest this, now that they also took the easy single entry visa away, as of demanding 400K. This again is also entirely nonsense, as most people including me, mania and others, just want a single entry non-o visa. I mean, by requiring this one might as well just convert inside the country from a 30 days on arrival. The entire visa purpose is gone this way, unless you do it for the extra 3 months, but that is kind of pointless, as one can continue to extend yearly within the country in that case anyway.

Public indecency is only a 1000 baht fine here too. Seems its foreigner bashing times since the silly doctor.

Its easy to make yourself as long you can grow the beans. I just not do the beans daily instead and eat it sometimes only.

It's over 300 many times, but this is only for X hours per day, which makes the long-term stats average still below or around 200 over the entire day. There is even moments of 400-500.

Yeah DUHHHH.. seriously? Stating the obvious. The point is that MANY people do NOT have water tanks, hence they limit it to RUN. What would the point otherwise be to close off the water distribution in the first place. Good morning, maybe time for a coffee?

Not hard to tell the wife is a model: botox in the cheeks, lips etc lol. The standards are so 'high' there isn't even natural models anymore lol. Well of course they do have an alternative; ladyboys who compete against ladies to become the beauty queens of the world. Funny how the Bible does write about this stuff, that it would happen, I always laughed at my grandfather when he said this when I was young.

Obviously it is about when you can take a shower, else such measures would not be installed in the first place. If everyone had a tank it would be pointless.

But but we wanted to do 3 weeks songkran, bunch or morons...

It's not a small problem at all, any decrease from 15-25% would be helpful already and a good start. To think like you, is like the government does, result: inaction.

China banned it years ago to help with the burning, but no other country in SE Asia itself did so...

Underground water is usually super dirty too. Never had issue even with super low pressure to fill any of my tanks, that will be some plumbing fk up then. Aside from the fact one can put a pump on it too. We only use underground for absolute emergencies and with 2 filters.

Doubt they confuse anything, it is the latest to ask 400K baht when applying for the non-o visa's at many places.
