Anyone else tired of being followed around malls?
rimmae2 replied to Chris Daley's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Sometimes when I am in the queue for Hermes and then LV. -
For repeat visits with so much variety and at different seasons then Japan by far, but then I have been about 30 times on business and vacation throughout the country and in all seasons. Overall my favourite country by far for repeat visits and not as expensive for day to day living as many people think. For a first visit this very much depends on season and duration of visit, what person wants to see and visit. I just returned from 2 weeks in Japan and for some it may not be the optimum time due to weather (rain and humidity). Of the other less less developed perhaps countries Laos was always my favourite dating back to the second half of the 1990s but in recent years not so much due to the influence of another country, first visited Myanmar in the late 1990s for about three weeks when there few tourists and one the most enjoyable holidays that I had, as was Angkor Wat about the same time.

Auto Gates at BKK for PR Holders

You can read my comments on Cameratas Guide........ After 100 times approx using auto gates prior to December 2021 current situation is frustrating. -
Permanent residency and house book.

ALL OF THIS I KNOW AS A LONG TIME PR AND OWNER OF MORE THAN ONE PROPERTY. JUST GAVE A MORE SIMPLE ANSWER. -
Permanent residency and house book.

Blue book is for Thai Nationals. If a Thai National lives at this condo and blue book is in this person's name then with agreement he can be included in the book. -
Thai Airways Faces Backlash Over Business-Class Seat Fiasco
rimmae2 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Most recent flight on this seat, aircraft leased from Hainan Airlines. In the last 2 years alone I have travelled on more than 50 flights in TG BC and on less than 5% of the flights has the seat not reclined much. On all other flights seat was excellent, as was service but then I am not a demanding passenger. I also travel on other airlines such as ANA, Emirates and Qatar so can compare. -
I have a 430i and use V Power 95.

If you know which restaurant to go to in a city/town then 'real' Thai food is not difficult to find either alone or with Thai family or friends. This year I have been to old favourites including in Amman and Shinjuku, Tokyo. For the former I usually contact the owner to ask what she can make which is not in the menu in advance of going in the evening.

Everyone has different expectations, frequency of travel, preference for non-stop, etc. I stongly prefer non-stop and have sat in the Al Safwa Lounge in Doha and the Emirates FC Lounge in Dubai more times than I can remember in the last 15 years approx travelling from Bangkok to the Middle East and Africa mainly on Emirates and QA. The novelty factor of the 2 lounges wore off a long time ago. 95% of the time I travel on Thai Airways as I can travel direct. I am a Platinum member of the airline, always travelling in Business or First Class, but unlike others I don't care about (and don't eat) food on the plane unless travelling to and from Japan and don't drink alcohol. Recently I travelled again on Qatar Airways, 3:00 am departure from Bangkok, endless bus journeys from the arrival flight and to the departure flight in Doha, so 2.5 hours in Al Safwa became 1.5 hours. Whether one sits on the Business Class or First Class bus in Doha the inconvenience is still there. Contrast with 2 R/Ts to Europe, 2 to Tokyo and numerous round trips to South Asia in the last 3 months.............all direct. Personally I prefer the service of the cabin crew on Thai Airways to the airlines mentioned above, whose staff can often be OTT and never leave one alone.

Transfer money by Phone app.
rimmae2 replied to Peterphuket's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Confused. Currently I have limits which include 500,000 baht to other SCB Account and 2,000,000 baht for bill payment. I can change the limits easily and quickly on SCB App and from memory most recent max transfer using APP has been about 400,000 baht. Am I missing something? -
Pink Id card for foreigners
rimmae2 replied to Enquiry123's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Go to an SCB Branch, complete a form and receive approval by text to mobile and e mail within a few hours. My limit is 2 mio THB but this can be changed on the APP. -
Fast Track Bangkok Airport
rimmae2 replied to LauChan's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
This is not the 'main' Fast Track from your explanation but maybe I misunderstood in which case apologies. If for example arriving at C gates, there is a fast track comprising 4 counters on the right of the immigration lanes for Thai Nationals. 99% of the time I use the lanes for Thai Nationals as I have PR and in my experience few if any people queueing and processing of Thai Nationals who don not use the auto channels is quick. Above experience is based on about 100 arrivals since the autochannel for PRs was out of operation in December 2019. The 'main' Fast Track is about 100m further. Prior to the immigration lanes mentioned in above para there are signs giving the waiting time in each immigration area (main Fast Track and the immigration zones for non Thai Nationals). -
What reporting? If hospitalisation in Thailand no action required with Immigration; if hospitalisation overseas and you are worried about not returning to Thailand until after expiry of the stamps in passport and PR book as your earlier terminology, then extend for a year from the date you apply to do so.

Good comment; people ignore this. I have purchased 3 BMW coupes new in Thailand and the only choice I have had is to add or change things such as different wheels all at more cost.

Such touching lyrics and beautiful voice. First saw her in concert in 2002 and still listen to this song especially when travelling and away from Thai wife and family. 2002 seems like yesterday when I listen to the song.
