  1. So you reckon they shouldn't be doing their job?
  2. Isn't this a story of Thai immigration doing their job? I understand Jenny never overstayed, but no one can blame immigration to give extra scrutiny to people who seem to reside in Thailand on visas or exemptions destined to tourists.
  3. Just got this. Which confirms what I said earlier, LTR will remain within the Thai bureaucratic realm and be unworkable for a large proportion of "eligible" candidates. How could I provide a "maturity date" which will be the date of my death, and the limits of a coverage which is unlimited? We are back to the good old OA HI situation, hence end of story. Unless I can show them a statement of my UBS accounts (100k deposit) but I am sure they have dreamed up some corny requirements for those documents too.
  4. Well if he legalised Canabis, he must have gained some "benefit" from it. "Benefitting" is the only driver of the people controlling this country. He is one of them, so can't give him any credit. And why on earth legalising recreational drugs, we have enough problems with alcohol, haven't we?
  5. Could someone volunteer a simple survey - "I've had Covid, confirmed by a test (ATK or PCR). - I have have never tested Covid positive. Assuming people will be honest, as there are some weird attitudes here when it comes to Covid... (or in general).
  6. Don't understand the topic, we are definitely not "post covid" in Thailand. Everyone is still wearing a mask.
  7. So was 9/11 wasn't? Just wonder why he comes up with such bulldeleted? Was he a commie?
  8. Were the enacting some metaphor of the Government?
  9. Well this means that I cannot use my existing UN ASHI health cover, even though could show funds over 100 KUSD, but not in Thailand. But unfortunately, this leads me to think that the yearly checks will require a lot more proof and paperwork than a mere 90 days report. If that was true LTR would hardly be of any benefit, as far as I am concerned. In any case, I'll probably renew my "Thai wife" extension early next year, get a new passport by the end of 2023 and make a decision based on what I'll read here.
  10. Did exactly the same, and same result. Promising.
  11. I guess you have embraced denial, and chosen to ignore the reality of the immense adjustments we have to make this century if we want to save the planet. This will happen only with "blood, toil, tears and sweat", for which the younger generations are totally unprepared.
  12. Things will go downward worldwide, probably for the rest of the century. And the third world will probably suffer most. Thailand is in the third world, come to Isaan if you want proof (household income/debt, education level, health, etc.)
  13. Amazon can be handy, but I have been boomboomed when I bought some useless Arlo cams, which I couldn't return because of the batteries. Net loss of over 25k, my bad though.
  14. Nope, don't need other geezers' opinion on that "matter".
  15. Well I got one for my daughter, it looked brand new.
  16. Totally reliable: Lazada.
  17. Indeed, and once this gets known in the west, the tourists ware going to stay home..
  18. Chatrium Riverside would offer the best of both worlds. Easy to Grab from there too. Or catch the boat,,
  19. I think that the re-payment schedules should be readjusted as they move up [or down] in their careers. On the other hand there should be special study schedules for kids on full time or part jobs. Universities should assist somehow in the summer job market. Employers should also understand that applicant with [hard] work experience will be better than softies with a couple of internships. I could go on..
  20. Why would I marry a boring bargirl, when I can sex with her for a ridiculous amount of money?
  21. IMHO writing the students' loans gives them a bad start in life. How will they learn to meet their commitments?
  22. In a case like that one MIL would send me to the Wat to train in levitation.
  23. But you can't eat pork anymore. You've replaced I'd rather have a few pimples and eat my "Choucroute garnie".
  24. But a 10Kw Genset is needed as well. Trying to find a proper supplier. Difficult.
