  1. IMHO the BOI/LTR visa range is pragmatic and comprehensive. Their only weakness is the availability of redundant offers such as OA, OX Elite, etc. As far as retirement is concerned the LTR should become the only long term option, while extended tourist visas (3 or 6 months a year) could be offered to retirees. Of course people established under Non O and Non OA, etc should have the possibility to remain under their current conditions. Now that leaves out the Marriage option, which the Thais will probably leave as it is now.
  2. This is the bit I don't get: 150000 to speak at a short seminar in Thailand doesn't look exorbitant to me, even rather small. Unless the seminars didn't happen, but no proof of that has been mentioned.
  3. Yep, my cat's been doing the job, so far.
  4. Well during all the decades I had worked for a UN organisation I had never heard the so pleasant "ass backward" qualification. I apologise for my offended reaction.
  5. Ok, since you don't come up with the second law of thermodynamics, I'll try to answer that. If you read (carefully) my post you'd see that I haven't said that you should not insulate your home. My point is that the type of insulation you need depends on the climate. As far as I remember I said that ceiling insulation is less critical than in cold climate. While in you need a significant mass of bulk insulation in Europe, a reflective sheet spread over a concrete slab under the roof will do marvels in the tropics. Getting a light colour for you roof tile will also make a difference. Anyhow this attachment will clarify my thinking. Always amazed by unpleasantness that a simple technical consideration can trigger on this forum. The first law of sexology probably says that one should boomboom one's wife more frequently, isn't @Lacessit
  6. Roof insulation under tropical climates is a lot less important than under cold climates. For the simple reason that cool(er) air won't try to disperse through the ceiling. Remember there is no such thing as a cold air balloon. So insulation must concentrate on wall and windows, while high ceilings will do the job for insulating the upper part. Just picture your house like a pool filled with cool air.
  7. I can understand your bitterness; it would look so good to see a warm embrace between Prayut, Putin and Trump.
  8. Well if it brings men to its condo, I'd try to hire someone who would act as a client and off it.
  9. Are you promoting prostitution?
  10. Guess u meant "Éminence grise" . Is Chidchob as monk?
  11. If you accept to live like a native, it is OK. But on the other hand this is a lower/middle management salary in Bangkok.
  12. I invite everyone to share this pricing table on their social media.
  13. I don't see what his manhood has to do with his battery problems.
  14. Do you realise that you come up with such drivel on a thread that is a powerful illustration of why firearms should be banned? And yes you probably have an "overactive imagination", just to be polite as I could be inclined to mention a problematic "size".
  15. Gave u the hiccups hasn't?
  16. Nonsense. Where I come from it is very difficult to justify a gun license, and you must renew it yearly. At which stage one must show a clean criminal record. To any sensible person this makes person sense. And in my opinion doesn't go far enough, there should be no private possession of firearms at all, which would make enforcement easier as any possession would become a crime.
  17. Well, who in Thailand would know about UML, Use cases, release scoping and at the end of the iteration testing based on the in scope use cases. Use case But no system gets released without "glitches", ask the great Elon Musk.
  18. Shouldn't we make a display of power, and develop this huge eastern parking lot?
  19. There should be mandatory minimal charges for both procurers and clients. Something like 20 years would be useful.
  20. Something like "falang kee nok mao"? About the only sentence I know (?) in Thai, heard it so many times.
  21. My guess is that they just wanted to "play doctor", for face. While the right thing to do was to put mutt out of his misery.
