  1. 1. Do stores (7-11, Tesco, Food Mart, etc) still provide free plastic shopping bags? 2. As a 30-day visa-exempt visitor to my own condo, can I do a TM.30 report online? As a previous full-time resident on a retirement extension I had one on file before and was told (by Immigrations) that I didn't need to renew it. I'm assuming that's different now without a retirement extension? 3. Is there a regular baht bus service on Thepprasit Road again? 4. Apparently there has been a new (or newly enforced old?) real estate tax being collected. I believe I'm a couple years in arrears. Does that require going to City Hall on Pattaya Neua to resolve?
  2. Sounds like DTAC is following the path SCB is following. I've used SCB's online web site to download transactions and make manual payments (like to my condo management for annual fees) SCB is discontinuing online web site banking in favor of smart phone app. I can't seem to enable the SCB app while I'm here in Mexico. And, even if I could, there's no way to download transactions. Progress?
  3. The Airport Limousine buses from NRT are a third option and go to directly to many of the bigger hotels.
  4. Aren't they now both guilty of slandering/defaming the other? Aren't there strict laws about that?
  5. Thanks. I am coming for a visit soon, and on my list of things to do was to go there for a checkup and cleaning. I wasn't sure they were still there, but sounds like they are,
  6. What "dose" of stinging nettle did you take? On Amazon I see capsules of varying quantities like 250mg, 500mg, 750mg, 870mg, etc.
  7. I hope they (MFP) strategize & execute such a plan effectively. But, I am not Thai and it's not my country, so I don't really have a say in any of it.
  8. If this government is "able to change the constitution which allows the appointment of the Senate," does that mean there will need to be another election for the citizenry to select Senators? If so, wouldn't it be likely that disillusioned Pheu Thai voters would switch to Move Forward? And, a further if so, wouldn't that possible outcome make the current government unlikely to favor a movement to undo the current system of an appointed Senate?
  9. Well, wasn't he in Hong Kong not long ago? That's where I used to buy all my counterfeit watches.
  10. isn't it concerning that safety didn't get 5.0/5.0? What issues with safety did those riders see/experience that led them to score less than 5.0?
  11. What is a "family director" for a political group?
  12. Will the new terminal funnel its additional 15 million passengers to the existing Immigrations hall in the current/main terminal?
  13. From this diagram, it looks like it'll be down from four lanes to two? That should be fun.
  14. The linked source article mentions "Deva Beach Resort Hotel". Do they mean the "D Varee Jomtien Beach" hotel? I didn't know where a Deva Beach hotel was so I Googled it and came up empty.
  15. Are there plans to put the overhead wires underground?
  16. I plan to close my two SCB accounts on my trip to Thailand this month. I will keep my (one) Bangkok Bank account since, at least for now, I can still download transactions. I originally only had one SCB account in Pattaya, but opened a second one when I lived in Hua Hin. Then I opened a Bangkok Bank account when they still allowed simple (ACH) transfers of money from the USA. It's overdue that I simplify things, so thanks, SCB, for persuading me to close your accounts.
  17. My main problem with that development is: How do you download banking transactions to put into a spreadsheet or financial software like Quicken from a cell phone?
  18. Why not go a step further, and have the Thai government send an official statement to the Kuwaiti government (or directly to the emir?) about the situation and how these youngsters' actions are painting their country in a most negative matter. Perhaps even a subtle suggestion that Kuwaitis may be banned from Thailand. And, maybe include photos of the youngsters with or without names. Not sure how strict Kuwait is in punishment, but if it's like some of its neighboring countries, swift justice could put an end to the noisy bike riders. Just a thought.
  19. ??? How exactly does it "save space?" In fact, it takes up more width than a normal single parking space, no?
  20. No, I don't know anything about them. I found it on a previous search for Dockers but never used them. Looking at their "About Us" page, it looks like they might be Middle East-based?
  21. Does this site have what you want? https://www.ubuy.co.th/en/brand/dockers
  22. So much for branding & marketing: the bird, "tweet," and Twitter are recognized worldwide. So let's change it. To a generic Roman alphabet letter. X.
