Most likely if it hadn't been this, something else would have gotten him soon after. Let what needs to happen, happen. 

I'm afraid of booking an airline that cancels their flights over and over. Which are the reliable ones for this flight BKK-Paris? Thanks!

Which Visa did you enter Thailand with?

 

 

I got here on Visa Exemption, on March 15th 2020. What about you?

I got my wedding rings (18k white gold) in Thailand this year for 10K baht each at some big mall in BKK, these shops are everywhere.
Paying much more than that is completely unnecessary in my opinion, to each his own though of course.

I just got mine in Ayutthaya province, but they were very reluctant, arguing that I can go back to my country already. I had to insist and explain my personal situation to them, they ended up giving it to me, telling me it was the last time I'd get it. I understand them completely and I'm really thankful to them, however I don't want to go back yet with the current situation being what it is. Any reports of other provinces still giving it like it's standard procedure? I'll happily move there to do a couple more extensions if possible.

So its OK for the young to kill the old due to their lack of social responsibility? In your world maybe, not in mine.

The old should protect themselves while the rest of the world go on about their life.

In this case ugly is only skin deep.  I eat a very similar looking type of banana very often.  In fact it is my and my wife's favorite.  Even when it appears too old or bruised, the flesh is still firm, unblemished and delicious.  I have yet to encounter seeds in the ones I've bought.

Absolutely agree on that, the flesh itself was great and very tasteful, absolutely worth eating raw in itself. Also the outer ugliness drives the price down which is nice.
Nam Wa... Got it guys, thank you. I shall try my luck with them again and hope for the best.

PS: Can't wait for durian season.

Seeds??

 

I'm guessing you're right but it's a total bummer when you've enjoyed seed-free bananas your whole life. What happened to relying on that cute little black thing at the very bottom of the banana for reproduction?

What about after the 29th? Any chance of the amnesty being extended? My visa ends in march.

I find NK to be particularly fascinating as it is probably the sole country in the world which is entirely self-reliant. When they build something, especially of this magnitude, it is 100% made of the sweat and blood of their own people, which is quite impressive.

Not to mention, if there is one country in the world which has interest in being armed, it is this one. There are too many sharks in the water, and they'd better have big guns if they don't want to be razed to the ground and replaced by a giant shopping mall.
I sincerely believe the narrative their leaders built about the west rings closer to the truth than ours about them.

Som Nam Na!! Wow this guy is truly disgruntled over a 500b fee. I thought it was just the tripadvisor and other hotel review site. This guy took it to the next level of writing it to the Cnn, bbc and abc news channel as well. Total entitlement idiot. 

He didn't initially write to any news outlets, just posted 4 reviews online on dedicated websites. Correct me if I'm wrong.

It is the only form of cancer in any animal in the world that is transmitted.  Absolutely hideous disease that results in tumours pushing through their eyes and various other facial parts, causing a slow, agonising death.  So yeah, it's a wonderful thing the Packer family funded this sanctuary to ensure their ongoing existence.

Great point, that's absolutely awful, I'm not surprised at all.

Looks like you have an issue with women.

Thank you for proving my point.

"This release of devils will be the first of many," he said. "We've bred nearly 400 joeys, and we're at the point now that we're able to harvest some to return to the wild."

It's unfortunate when people try to play God... Such conceit and self-centeredness. Let nature take its' course, it is a self-regulating system that does not give two <deleted> about the disappearance of this or that species. If anything its' own wonderful purpose is to flush out the ones incapable of survival and self-reliance.

The wonderfully eclectic Devin Townsend. ????

Wonderful mix of Morlam and rock instrumentation. Artistry on another level compared to 95% of modern Thai music imo, most singers sound the same these days. Rasmee is a gem.


 

Nice melody with lyrics I like, really fitting when you miss your mother on the other side of this earth. ???? Not the kind of messages you see at all in modern music.

I hope this was the list time we saw the same people waiting to the alst second before doing something about it... but something tells me on 31st of October, it'll be deja vu all over again...

Yes, hopefully at the last second they will do nothing at all instead of playing this ridiculous game of cat and mouse (guess which is which). Amnesty will then be extended again. ????

Are you an IO? It's their problem, not ours. I don't understand why you care if people choose not to act like good little sheeps running to be fleeced at every turn. Do tell us why you think people should rush to Immigration to waste their money and extensions for nothing...

If you believe the official narrative and think amnesty was extended because of the overcrowded offices to begin with, you are extremely naive... The government and immigration colluded to push people to get a visa based on an empty threat.
