    You order a parcel in the Netherlands and this gets shipped by the Belgian post through UPS?

    I'm quite sure that the post office doesn't use UPS, but the shop that sent you the parcel used UPS.

    I have no idea, but the parcel was sent th 12th of October, and the track and trace didn't change for weeks So I wrote to BP and the shop and this was my answer.... I don't know The shop never used UPS before when I ordered, always with the post and smooth and silk. I had ordered another one on the 6th of November and that is the same... still in progress by Bpost.. and Bpost told me to wait for another week at least....

    As said in every topic like this: Don't use couriers like UPS, DHL, etc, always send by mail.

    I do always, but I don't know why suddenly the Belgian post used UPS, I heard because of problems with Covid, but I still I don't understand. Another shop told me that they don't deliver to Thailand anymore because a lot of parcels are too long on the way or disappear...

    Yawn. Live local, eat local is the solution.

    I understand and I eat local every day, but sometimes, like this time of the year there are only things available that you can't buy the rest of the year. We celebrate Saint Nicolaes. So time to order the special snacks, that I can't buy or make myself and at the same time order other stuff for preparing the Christmasdiner..Not a lot of people know the snacks for St Nicolaes but, it brings back the memories of my childhood. That people don't understand says more about them then about me. Never had a problem only this time the postoffice sent it by UPS and for a value of 65 euro they want me to pay 8.000THB.... I don't think so..

    Well, what do you expect from 15 years of schooling - 6 years primary, 6 years secondary and 3 years university? 

    I don't know who is responsible for it but the students and the ministry of education for sure. I am teaching kids for 6 years every week in P1 to P^  and every lesson starts with how are I am fine thank you... And when I see them when they are in M1 or 2 and they come to visit the school and I ask them how are you they can not the answer....  If the memory is not working you can't teach them anything. After 240 times repeating the same sentence they are unable.....

    They were checking both Thais and foreigners on motorcycles for misdemeanors like not wearing helmets or not having a licence. 

     

    It was standard practice, he said.

    Now I am wondering why so many people still don't follow the rules if they are checking helmets and driverslicenses..I all those years I should think eveyrbody a=was fined alredy several times, or is it only at a checkpoint now and then that they do the standard practice??? But with more tourists it is easier to earn some money... but who cares.. Let the tourists come in and wonder why there less every time
