  1. The money is not usually "spent" It is invariably used to pay off some of the debt the parents have often incurred through laziness to work and gambling. Once the honeymoon is over the hands will be out again for more help for the parents. ONly occasionally in my area is it ever given back to the happy couple.
  2. It just sets a pattern for everyone else.. Its the daughters and their parents that will lose out in the long run.
  3. No invites! You must apply. Thats not likely to change
  4. 26 years together here. 2 kids. No dowry paid when married, and no dowry needed or paid when my kids marry (best they just live together). Whats the point of a certificate costing a small fortune? Love and happiness cost nothing!!!!!!
  5. Total stupidity. Time this nonsense was legally stopped. Hopefully just for show, and the money and gold will be given back to the newly weds. Close on 4.5 million baht, which will give them a good step on the housing ladder.
  6. Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin has ordered the mourning period, which will be observed on May 23rd, 24th and 27th. The break on May 25th is due to the Visaka Bucha public holiday. Surely Visaka Bucha was yesterday 22nd May!!!!!!!!!!!! Has the PM lost his memory?
  7. More importantly, can we buy alcohol?
  8. Any crime in which a deadly weapon is used to threaten, harm or kill, regardless of the outcome, warrants a death sentence. Way beyond time to make the scum out there pay for their crimes
  9. No problem using it on the return journey from Don Muang the next day.
  10. Note that officially, the Pink Card is only able to be used in the province of issue. Despite that I have used my Pink card in many other provinces, when checking into hotels. Only time it was refused was when I needed it for boarding a domestic flight with Air Asia, from the airport within the issuing province!!!!!!!!
  11. If the wife did not work and just stayed home, looks as Sanan alone would have had to clear the debt, plus feed 30 hungry animals. No different now, but 1 less mouth to feed.
  12. If it looks/sounds too good to be true, it usually is SOM NOM NA!!!!!!!
  13. Farcical, as most things in Thailand are!
  14. The usual hold up is in getting an appointment to submit. If you are available all and any day, no problem, but want a specific tme to submit on a particular day, you may need to wait 2 weeks.
  15. sex crimes against a child should be met with a death sentence
  16. Anyone notice the resemblance of the cop on the right to Big Joke?
  17. Valid point, but you understand the gist. If such a law were to come into force, then the wording would drawn up by legal eagles and would cover all aspects
  18. As I have repeatedly said, both on this forum and elsewhere, anyone (and I do mean ANYONE of any race. religion or whatever) found in possession of a deadly weapon in public (other than those so authorised) should be locked up for a minimum of 10 years. Anyone using a deadly weapon to threaten, harm or kill, regardless of the outcome should receive the death penalty.
  19. My son was locked up in the Immigration jail for several days whilst his deportation was arranged. I understand all foreign "criminals" who are locked up are subsequently deported. He was caught working without a permit...Hardly a criminal act!
  20. Always loathed durian. Maybe time to see whether it tastes any better 🤣
  21. I will insist on Red Plates. No plates NO PAY!!!!!!!!!!!
