Visa help - what are my options?
ChaiyaTH replied to KieranM's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Apply ngo jobs and continue be a sucker lol (im not a fan). In terms of getting married and her having xyz job, wouldnt it be the school to ask, instead of random people who are unaware of xyz details? The questions kind of confirm why i dislike ngo and gov workers lol. In case is is next: no i dont know quiz nights or vegan places. -
Anywhere where there is constant tourist streams of people it is you having to prove your different and then you meet an entirely different person than that person is as a daily worker dealing with tourists. But i get where you come from with this, when living elsewhere in Thailand already and then visiting for a short holiday, the behavior in the south can come across as very aggressive and negative, anti-foreigner almost. To fix or address that is the same answer though, you have to show and proof you been around, are not a complete idiot en behave well. It sucks if being on a short holiday as of never getting that chance in that case, so again, i get where the topic comes from, feeling wise. In Vietnam this is even more of a thing.

He is right a bit maybe but for the very end 'we do not do that to you', the Thais do all kinds of stuff in other countries in terms of business, corruption and bribes. It's always these Thais who then do like foreigners, because they likely studied abroad or whatever, who speak like if Thailand is some fairytale. To say Thais can do bribes and corruption, but you as a foreigner should not, is obviously stupid to say as well. You can't live a easy life in a country where corruption thrives, without joining the corruption sometimes, specially if you live in certain areas or you would do business in perhaps hospitality and tourism. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. If he wants foreigners to not do it, start with addressing the locals their actions and behavior instead of the 0.0001% incidents caused by foreigners here.

Liquid cooling is the best, I even do it myself right now by sitting in the waterfall while working.

TR Visa 60days Savannahket
ChaiyaTH replied to Stevey's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
It just depends on the guy or girl, and their mood, that day. I have seen a dozen russians with obvious repeated history apply in front of me there, while then seeing a couple others including 2 friends being refused, who were behind me. As if there is a invisible maximum for the day where they just start creating issues (and we were even the first 40 people). If you go there for a tourist visa, while you do not have border runs left for the year, you essentially just play with fire, as of the very long / expensive trip to get out of there to any bigger city or another country. There is no reason in your case in the first place to have to avoid Vientiene. -

Aren't those birds who stick their head in the sand also from Australia? -
Starting the building journey

Both of these can be purchased in electric version nowadays too, no sound at all. Maybe the screaming will be the noise after breaking a leg crashing. -
TR Visa 60days Savannahket
ChaiyaTH replied to Stevey's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I can testify to that with 2 different european friends, who never went there before and only had 1 TR visa in recent year, but still were both refused there. Sucked a lot for them as they already did 2 landborders as well, and then it is a big hassle to get to Vientiene + elsewhere. For non-o no issues. -
Thai Viet jet airlines charges for checked luggage
ChaiyaTH replied to Dean1953's topic in Chiang Mai
In Vietnam you can just bribe them a few dollars cash and you even get a front row seat lol. Out of my mind it is around 900 baht for 1x 20KG checked luggage aside from the 7KG carry-on luggage so 36 dollars sounds possible potentially. -
Most people fly nowadays, its a waste and frustration to sit all day in a minivan being useless. Also cost me same to pre-book a round way ticket out + 1-2 nights hotel.

Israeli woman detained in Thailand for unauthorised nursery
ChaiyaTH replied to webfact's topic in Koh Samui News
For once? They have a bad rep on phangan all over the place.. -
They deal a lot with local authorities aside from having a lot of local staff, is the same. Must be a nice job as a local; you get double holidays 😉

Thai cops probe groping incident by foreign men in Bangkok
ChaiyaTH replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
Exactly that and those places are actually full of freelancers too lol, I can imagine it is hard to figure out the differences when entirely new. I mean if you walk down Samui the girls actually spank the guys walking by, if that is where one started their holiday, one could quickly assume it is all normal lol. -
This is the official store so no worries at all, is the real deal

Base plate on lazada (288 baht) Yellow crate with many base blocks (1275 baht) Lego base blocks extra 333 pcs (475 baht)
-
I buy lego for my son from lazada, there is a few populair shops including an official one, but the local populair one called brick store i believe. Best deals for me were to buy the yellow and red crate, to then keep adding to that after with smaller cheaper boxes. I also received a few times via international post as birthday gifts, never was charged custom fees on it, so if that is cheaper in your home country might be worth looking into as well. And no, the fake alternative is not worth the money, the bricks not stick well. The real lego will last 100+ years.

Sky Doctor Flies Ailing German Tourist From Koh Samui To Trang
ChaiyaTH replied to webfact's topic in Southern Thailand News
That helps you zero. Emergency care would be to try and get your heart beat running again after for example an heart attack. However, in many cases you would still need an emergency surgery or additional treatment, to ensure the stability of being alive longer-term, that is never covered. Also often there are limited specialists, the best fit doctors / surgeons, for specific treatments, who are not always near the islands. -
Seriously How Gullible Are Thai People?
ChaiyaTH replied to NONG CHOK's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
You must be joking right, 80% of all condos as well super cars belong to very few. Most with a normal car have 20-30 year loans on them, same for the condo, while the car and property wont even last that long without further injections. Oh ok, but a few million out of like 70 million do ok, we should focus on that… That is some stereotype thai ignorance lol. -
Yeah I guess that is why you would hear mainly EDM, at most places, as those are the commercial ones.
-
I see few with dreadlocks, def a minority. Maybe only phi phi would be an exception to that.
-
Lol nonsense, all the parties are full of loud EDM and buckets. It is actually a minority by now to live with bob marley style. There is plenty of good parties and music on phangan for example but the mainstream things anywhere is long time gone from that.
-
When is the last time you been there, it is been like that for like a decade. That is the same anywhere too, including full moon. EDM is the norm.

Anti-Farang hate campaign continues #Farang
ChaiyaTH replied to NorthernRyland's topic in General Topics
I can notice slight changes when driving in the less tourist parts on my motorbike, specially among older Thais, it's like they are checking me out again as if it was the first time they saw a foreigner, as it is exactly that generation watching the Thai news all day long too. Like everything is just fine, but you can tell that they are like checking you out to see if you are one that might cause trouble. They need to stop this news bs. -
In recent years they tested the water a few times at doi suthep and areas, the water was a few times very bad with E. coli showing up at the end of the hottest months. Aside from that there is at most places very little water, if you hike along the waterfall streams you can find various small pools, one is near the bottom of Doi Suthep as well. I think it should still be fine right now, I am actually about to check again this week.
