What is the advantage of an expensive smart phone?
MrJ2U replied to OneMoreFarang's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
I just went to make a deposit and Samsung has sold out of all its pre orders on its Samsung Thailand site. I was thinking, "Thats expensive". Oh well. -

Samsung is offering 4 years of Android updates. Incredible cameras that rival $2,000-$3000 DSL's. You can call other phones 24 hours a day/7 days a week. Cool factor! I've just pre-ordered the Samsung 22 Ultra. Lots of promotions if you order early. -
Water Filtration Business. Anyone with actual experience.
MrJ2U replied to Adumbration's topic in DIY Forum
Good luck. I always go a little overboard on things like that. You sound like you know what your doing! I'll definitely have to read up on it. -

Be interesting to see how it goes. I was thinking the same thing. Not for selling but for having it for our own use. Pricey buying cases of Crystal every week. Check AliBaba, they have some good prices on automated systems for production and bottling portable water. Nice to see a town taking responsibility and building an adequate and safer water supply instead of pocketing the money like our village. Good luck. -
China-made diesel locomotives handed over to Thailand
MrJ2U replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News Headlines
Way ahead of its time. -
Its sometimes the only thing available. For me in Issan I had to send an expensive watch for repairs. Thaipost wouldn't send it, small battery in it. I had to drive to Udon Thani DSL. It was almost 2,700 baht. No choice. Watch was fixed anyhow. Pitfalls of living in Issan. Sometimes cheaper to send gifts from the intended recipients home country using Amazon.

Disney Land Hong Kong has an electric train that circles the park. -
JAS21 is right. Unfortunately thats what we did, "Western" style. We're trapping the heat in. #2 is good. Light covered roof tiles with heat reflection will help keep it less hot. Also rats and birds love that roof insulation to make nests. Next house I'll definitely plan better!

There definitely more expensive here. However I don't remember them being that pricey. I bought ours at Home Pro or Global house. They'll always have some promotions. Here's an example from Amazon USA to Thailand. Import fees 1.21. Shipping 11.41 Wow! I'll order from Amazon next time. Shipping and customs tax is cheaper than the gas to get there! Good luck. LED's will save a bundle in the long run.

Thats interesting about the mangos. I'll have to mention that to my wife if I don't forget.

Does Dating online in Thailand and Asia really work?
MrJ2U replied to webfact's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Tinder seems to work fine. Don't bother paying for any dating apps. If you're confident just go to any shopping center and strike up a conversation with some girls. .....Or just go to NaNa and get a stunner for a 1500 baht and forgoe the small talk. -
Govt Urged to Cut Oil Tax by 2 Baht/Liter
MrJ2U replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News Headlines
6 baht a liter in tax revenue. 20% is pretty high. -
"A leading professor at Chulalongkorn University has come out this week to criticize the government for its continued obsession with acquiring Sinovac vaccines. The professor joined Thai Enquirer to outline her grievances, the same one she shares with millions of other Thais." https://www.thaienquirer.com/28886/leading-chula-professor-criticizes-governments-sinovac-obsession/

2022 Honda 160 adv vs FKM Venture 150 ?
MrJ2U replied to rayinkrabi's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
I wonder why. There more Honda dealerships here than anyother motorcycle brands. I usually get off brand batteries on Lazada or Shoppe. -
I doubt many parents will want their children vaccinated with Sinovac. Pfeizer is hard enough. I Know my wife agreed to Pfeizer, but no way to Sinovac for our daughter who's 7. I think that's the sentiment in most Thai households. They better do it fast, the 1.5 million doses they have in storage is already 5 months old. Shelf life is 6 months. Storage in Thailand is questionable in Thailand at best.

MrJ2U replied to rayinkrabi's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
I've got a Yamaha. It's nice. But Im sticking with Honda next time. I find them more practical and comfortable for driving longer than 50 kilometers.
