  1. The BP reports about plans to replace the Cambodians with Sri Lankans.
  2. Over the phone, they quoted Thai Massage 15-16000 Oil Massage 17-18000
  3. I remember reports that at reentry, immigration wanted to see the paperwork you had submitted when you applied for the DTV. An extension in-county, after 180 days, definitely can require a lot of "blabla" at immigration. But that shouldn't affect OP.
  4. But the big government hospital in Ubol doesn't treat them anymore.
  5. Recently, they kept a package for me about 3 weeks (sender for to write the house number)
  6. The number of passengers is expected to increase to 250,000 per day, from currently 150,000.

  7. Institute of Dermatology Near Victory Monument in Bangkok, google it They have an after-hours clinic, after 17.00 (better come 30 min earlier, walk-in accepted ) Cheap and good Dr Parichart, St Louis Hospital, BTS St Louis esp. for female patients, male patients are usually directed to a male dermatologist a real skin doctor, not a beauty quack
  8. Spoken Thai is everywhere in Bangkok as soon as you leave lower Sukhumvit, CBD, Khaosarn. I went to Bang Phli today for some shopping. I went by public transport, asking for directions many times, and I had to call the shop in advance to ask about address, opening hours, stock. I didn't speak anything else than Thai, and didn't hear anything but Thai (ok, the old lady who sold me 3 bananas said "twentyfive baht", but when I asked her for the bus stop, she switched to Thai). I saw 2 foreigners. Written, that's different. In Chinese, I had to fill out banking forms in Chinese, including the long forms of Chinese numerals. The instructions for my answering machine were in Chinese. My computer used Chinese Windows. Here, too much of the written things in daily life are in English.
  9. Thanks for the link. It just confirmed that the masks from Hardware House are genuine. They come from Singapore and Korea. Those I bought on Lazada come from China, like everything else. BTW your link is very useful, but doesn't work on every phone. And from your link:
  10. Why is it that so many posters cannot figure out the difference between discriminatory pricing based on residency (very common in many countries for many things) and prices based on nationality (unheard of for urban mass transit - Bangkok will be a first)?
  11. Hardware House Bangna, km 25 Bangna-Trat highway, near the entrance to ABAC , has plenty of stock of genuine 3M masks. Very friendly, good service. One can order online, too. They accept COD. On Lazada, I got a bunch of fakes. HomePro doesn't have stock anywhere in Bangkok, neither online. They do have stock in Sri Racha
  12. That would be me, for instance. (I suppose with "present" you mean not just present in Thailand, but present in the conflict areas, even if not in actual contact with soldiers of any side). I have to disappoint you. I feel not competent enough to answer. Of course, I have some ideas, some opinions, I know some fragments of reality - but after all, I am just a stupid farang. And I know it. Scio me nescire.
  13. Would you mind to answer all these questions about yourself? As for Kwilco, they can all be answered by reading his (quite excessive) posting history.
  14. Some people seem to agree with you: https://www.bangkokpost.com/opinion/opinion/3078749/journalism-is-the-first-victim-in-a-conflict
