  1. I agree. My son, US citizen travels with me regularly from Thailand to the US. I've always utilized an (English Language) notarized consent to travel document. However, our last departure in April, immigration told me that I would be required to provide a document in Thai and procured from the Ampur. Why, not sure. As many have stated, have both passports for your travels. Also, ensure the mother knows the travel plans, day and time of departure in the event immigration decides to call her. They always call my son's mother to verify.
  2. I stayed at the Empire Villa for around a year. Upper floor, 2 bedroom, big kitchen, full size refrigerator, overlooking the pool. Family owned and very nice staff. I believe I paid 12,000 per month.
  3. You may want to double check the information. If correct, per travel.state.gov, a 17 year old can apply (DS-11) by him/herself with documented parental awareness. If correct, perhaps only his mother can attend if needed. When applying for a child passport then yes both parents need to attend or have a notorized DS-3053 if only one parent is able to attend.
  4. Oriental Residence or Conrad
  5. I agree. If the slope is eroding then it is best to address firstly at the point where there is any directed waters. Diversion at the top of slope is key. Secondly, address the slope itself to protects from direct rainfall. Textile/stabilization works well on slopes to a certain degree. Depending on grade of angle. Myself, do not install on a slope any steeper than a 2:1. Problem with textile material, at least in my experience, is that they are black. This has proven to be an issue as the material gets so hot while in the stages of trying to grow vegetation that the heat kills off the vegetation. Cement soil stabilization also works well. There are also polymer products that work well but availability here is unknown. Depending on slope size and availability of stone in your immediate area, it may simply be best to hard armor, install large stone on the slope. I say this as labor is far less expensive than paying an engineer and buying costly materials or services. Many years ago I seen a slope stabilization product installed in Pattaya that I had never seen in my country. It was a textile material, accordian type, 3" deep pockets, that was pinned to the slope then filled with material, small stone or grass. I found the product in my country and utilized it on a project with excellent results. I was just in Pattaya, passed by the area and the slope is still in tact. Whether or not the slope has been reworked I could not say. And yes, I would agree that a soil stabilization expert here may be expensive.
  6. I use the HUSHED app with text/SMS option
