  1. I took my passport, wife, house book and a village elder to the district office. They gave me the yellow book and then a pink ID card. It was a little convoluted but I have plenty of time.
  2. It is a two way street. The Thais treat doctors like gods and do not question any abuse. I will concede that a doctors time is more valuable than mine but not infinitely so. The system can be broken for the benefit of and deference to the staff.
  3. Clearly a mental health issue. I hope they are talking to his home country about getting treatment. He might just be off his meds but that is not a problem for the Thai government.
  4. Putin is counting on Chump winning and then helping in the attack on Ukraine.
  5. That is not that large of a dowry, BUT! You need you know the rules. Second marriage 0, already has kids 0, no advanced education 0, works independently of the family 0, has ever been in Pattaya 0. The dowry is paid for well behaved, young women of child bearing age that can help support the new family, AND for the economic loss to her parents earnings. On the other hand, you still need to pay for the wedding. In an Issan village, that will set you back maybe 100-120k. You would also need show money to maybe 50k that goes back to the bank.
  6. When the stockers can be supervised and the inventory monitored.
  7. Another idiot. Book him, jail him, deport him. It does not require this much air time.
  8. I wonder what happened with the piss test. This is not 4 beers and a joint behavior. Not even close.
  9. Sad for you, mine works just fine. Not everyone is from the UK.
  10. Get an APEC card, then you can use fast track all over Asia and get extended visas as well.
  11. Let them extend their stay for several years, then deport them.
  12. Absolutely unacceptable comment from a monk. His job is promoting the temple and it's events, not insulting performers that are trying to help the temple.
  13. "Recommending"? Was he selling drinks or just a customer making suggestions about the menu? It would not be unusual for a regular to suggest things to someone new. You don't need a permit for bar chat. On the other hand it could also be the horrible vocabulary of the posts on this site. What is this guys relationship to the bar?
  14. Gays make up about 10% of the population. The curious might drive it much higher.
  15. Prison for a year or two. Reparations to her, then back to Europe. Maybe he would prefer the UK where he can commune with some football thugs.
  16. Tolls are still part of the negotiation for that, but I leave Pattaya for the sophisticated foreigners like you.
  17. Assault and battery sounds like a reasonable issue to me. See ya!
  18. Never owned one, never needed one, never wanted one. The gun crazies in the US are just that, crazy. Cross the Venn diagram with delusional MAGA morons and you have a deadly mix.
