May I ask you guys.... Is there anywhere a link where I can direct my thaiwife to read this, she is not good with the computer so she can not find news about the election in thai language..... Anyone that can give me a link plse?? Thank you so much..

THAT was a kind of ¤%¤%#"&% comment. If you ever were living here or leaving your "village", you would have noticed that the military actually have taken Thailand many steps forward in it´s development... Corruption immy was down a great deal as from 2014 when the military here stopped the upcoming civilwar..... And the building of the country has been fantastic.....

Most and best sales of secondhand shipping-containers are being done down in Bangkok Area..

Poor Mr John (last name withheld) he was drunk and in the end Mr. Viljoen (last name NOT withheld) paid his debt..... hahahaha

spidermike007 The desperados army goons will do anything within their power to avoid a free and fair election, where they will lose by a decisive margin. No doubt the election commission is as corrupt as the army. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So your view of a free and fair election is to hand out 10.000 baht to each voter, great opinion.... Maybe you should think things over a bit..... The desperado red party do whatever it takes to take power again, maybe they will start to shoot thai people like they did 2014 again???? No for me, of course if these corrupt offerings continue this election will be a place of joke and not a serios election...... For me, time since 2014 and onwards has been a great time for Thailand with great development and progress despite all this bull<deleted> on social media..

What do you mean Dr Jack, with all respect I do not get your wording at all.... I understood it as his O-A VISA was expired, but NOT his period of stay/permission of stay connected to that VISA!!! AND he can not extend a VISA, you know that very well... That was what I did say...

Ops, I nearly missunderstand you, considering the wording of "extending your Non Immigrant O-A"... So you did NOT at all extend that O-A..... That you can only do by passing the boarder.... What you have done is that you have made an extension of stay based on your period of stay/permission of stay.... Nothing else.....

Sad to hear this. A good man who helped numerous people with his knowledge of VISA-stuff. R.I.P. glegolo

So in my mind may, june and july is the small rainy season, why the serious one up here in Isaan is september and maybe october down further south like Hua Hin.......

So "Crossy" is completely wrong then???????

yes good idea, you probably live up north then.. Why not move??

Yes our soi is completely dog-free since 14 years back, and it was me that arranged that. It was surpricingly easy.... As soon as I saw a dog there a throw stones at them, not on them though... I did it frequently day after day and night after night and after a week about, no more dogs.... From time to time new generation of stray dogs come by and do not know about the stone-throwing, but they learn quickly.....

Thank you so much...

A friend of mine married to a thai-lady who have a child from an earlier marriage. This child is only 5 year old and mom and the son have gone to Thailand (from Sweden) and entered on the swedish passport. Even though they both have passports from both Thailand and Sweden. I am wondering, and my question is therefore. If entered on swedish passport do the 5 year old have to have VISA? Child have stayed the 30 days with mother and mother returning to Sweden without the child. The 5 year old will stay another 2 month with the thai-father.... Will there be a problem with Immigration and VISA??... Can anybody help out here?? Thank you, glegolo

If you like to know about Chaiyaphum..... For years the very same requirements to open a bankaccount for falang: A - tabien ban OR B - Wifes tabien ban OR C - Certficate of recidency D - Passport of course And off we go...

So who really is the victim here you think??? A guy that have to pay for his bad behaviour????? Or the thai people that had the privilage of receiving this drunks bad wordings??

Thank you Brittim and Dr Jack... we are living in Chaiyaphum so we do NOT have these usual problems with banks at all like tourists have... So all good with that. Thank you so much, now we can go on...

Good afternoon, May I ask you for your help? Thing is that a friend of mine will be entering Thailand on a 60 day tourist-VISA. His intentions is to go further and in the end apply for a extension of stay based of Retirement. Yes he is over 50 and he is from Denmark,,, Can you plse tell me how it is being done also what regards timeline to expect it takes as well other stuff that you are aware of... I am very grateful for any help.....

You try to make it looks like a common thing that "thai" people attacks falang. And as an example you use a video of a gang of mobsters/criminels as evidence of that... I think that is just desperate reasoning from your side....

"Interesting" comment really!!! (NOT)...... I have during my 15 years here now NEVER seen a thai attack a falang except 1 single time when this norwegian drunk falang was attacking his wife and thereafter himself was attacked by the neighbours, and that was OK, I think, he deserved that well.. Common occurence is strong words,. especially when you do not give any more explanation to it... If falang learn to NOT mingle or socialize with thai people outside family, and not publicly go out drunk as a wet cat, then we should be OK in most cases.... Finnish mean reaks drunkness and alcohol sorry to say, so my guess is that this finnish man was NOT innocent at all, as the wifey likes to show it....

Thank you so much, appreciated...

Chaiyaphum

Can anybody plse help me and inform what documents is needed to make an 30 day extension of a Tourist-VISA. Thank you so much.

This is a stupid and completely ignorant comment. Grow up and try to adapt to way of life here in Thailand, if you even living here, that is....

You speak of 2 completely different kind of expats. where 1 is the argumentative one (as you said) thinking he knows it all... And the other one is very often a complete novis, left everything to wifey and do not understand the process at all.. But I can tell you that there is a huge crowd of expats, knowing their way around Immigration and the rules, and are fully capable of performing an extension of stay based on retirement. I think that to achieve this level, you really need to show some interest and be part of the process, and not take the easy way out and sleep it out, and let old wifey take charge....
