  1. Whatever. Can we have one for Jared and Ivanka too? Maybe we can find the missing defense documents.
  2. They do for legal visas. Apparently not for agent extensions though.
  3. Not a chance. Refused service for the benefit of the driver is on him. Plus, a baht bus driver gets paid on delivery, not pickup.
  4. He is in for a world of hurt on arrival in China for making a spectacle embarrassing to the country. We will not have to worry about him returning any time soon.
  5. I lived in China many years and never had a problem. Everyone was very nice.
  6. He is lucky he was not shot. Arrest, incarcerate, deport and ban.
  7. Are British bouncers more restrained, particularly against people of color? I doubt it.
  8. It is important to remember that this is not an "Arab" problem, it is an idiot problem. No problem with enforcing the rules for everyone. Rental places that provide vehicles without licenses need to be closed. People driving without proper credentials need to be deported. Not just Arabs, everyone.
  9. Just a news agency trying to make a horserace. He has less than 35% of Republicans supporting him and zero democrats. He will not even be close.
  10. Yes, they are deadbeats. The O visa is a preliminary step to an extension. If you do not extend, you are not holding up your end of the deal. Wait nine months and try again if you like. This is the reason that some offices are requiring the 800k up front.
  11. The people that make visa runs 4 times a year to get a new 90 day O and never put up the money.
  12. FYI, the Elite people do the criminal check as part of the approval process. That is a key reason that it can take months to approve. They could treat O's the same if you want to wait. If you want to eliminate deadbeats, limit O applications to one a year. Eliminating the use of agents is going to be a bigger problem. It is a system that was not created by the applicants.
  13. FYI, the Elite people do the criminal check as part of the approval process. I like the idea of a criminal check for O's though. I also like the idea of limiting O applications to one per year. Eliminating the use of agents is going to be a bigger problem. It is a system that was not created by the applicants.
  14. And how is that different from the Russian mobsters, Indian touts or British hooligans? Making generalities is a slippery cliff. Maybe it is time for the BIB to be processing the overstay lists from immigration for all nationalities. Maybe it is time to limit O visas to one per year?
  15. Paragraphs help. Your text is a disorganized mess. Is there a question in there? Koh Chang is boring and isolated, the boy would probably prefer Hua Hin where he could be a little more independent, For beaches, the Phuket/Krabi area wins easily. Plenty of beach villas south of Patong. For euro-feel Koh Samui also has many small villas available but the food is bland.
  16. I have never been physically threatened by working girls. It is bad for business. Look to the tourists to have an attack of gay panic.
  17. It worked out pretty well for the Vatican.
  18. Shouldn't that be the Brown Shirts From Bangkok?
  19. Check your deposits. If you have been bringing in 40k a month, you can get a marriage extension for a year.
  20. What you need is a recirculation pipe and diverter valve. Just closing the discharge valve will just drive the pressure up on the pump side. Half the flow needs to go back to the tank. Closing the suction side is much worse as it will cause cavitation and ruin the pump. All of your options are energy inefficient. It would be better in the long run to buy a properly sized pump.
  21. They are finally going after the Agent visas. Long overdue.
  22. Try renaming at the command prompt with admin.
