I normally check out the ASEANNOW website on my phone early in the morning, it is nearly impossible now to read even a few words before an annoying advert from ANA a Japanese Airline takes over my phone, even if l watch the advert all the way through (120sec) it pops up again a few minutes later. Advice needed to stop the advert, it spoils the site.

In reply to your post Bluemon58 is quite correct "Yellow Fever Vaccine", Issues to be aware of: Get your Yellow Fever Vaccine before you travel to Nigeria $50 You will be issued with a " Yellow Fever Card" with your "Yellow Fever Vaccine", you will be asked to show this (so keep it on your person) along with your Passport at Lagos Airport on Arrival, prior to Nigerian Immigration. Note: If you fly directly from Africa (not via Dubai or other hub) to Bangkok, you must go directly to the Airport Medical Centre (prior to Immigration on the left) and fill out a Medical Form and show your "Yellow Fever Card", then proceed to Thai Immigration. No, "Yellow Fever Card", No Entry.............Simple, (or they'll insist on another Yellow Fever Jab and charge $100+) Good luck with Nigeria, there nice people,,

As one of the previous posters mentioned the Invertor controls the Motor speed by changing the frequency of the Electricity and sometimes even the waveform from sinusoidal to sawtooth or other, this is known as "Variable Speed Control" it does make things more efficient. People who travel on electric trains will hear the noise changing tone/frequency as the train excelerates, a similar thing is happening with your Refrigerator, Aircon, washing machine, but we can't hear it in the same manner. Electricity at 50hz can only drive a motor wound with a fix amount of Poles at a set speed, previously to make the motor go quickly or have more Torque there was other tricks, but now there is the Invertor which can increase the Frequency of the Electricity, which increases or slows the Motor Speed. But this is Thailand, there are many Lightening Strikes every month, this send Spikes through the supply network 3 or 4 times the magnitude of the 230vAC supply you only might see a dip in the lights a Brown Out which can damage delicate electronics, hi tec is not always reliable, who is going to fix it, in our through away society Even in the UK we have this issue l am now on my 3rd Solar Inverter in 10 Years. In my opion the efficiency benefits for most domestic electrical device are negligible, unless you want a Washing machine that spins your clothes at 200rpm

I agree with Hotchilli's comments, just because you can't see it doesn't mean its gone away, plus the Oil Dispersants are just chemicals which cause more pollution and harm to wild life. The sunken tanker is only in shallow water 30m, the cargo is light oil (not crude), l worked in the Bay of Biscay recovering Crude Oil from a sunken super tanker called Erica, using Divers its possible to tap into the Cargo Tanks and pump in either Hot edible oil or Water to displace the Diesel, but all this takes planning and money. It's cheaper just to dance around the issue

Hello, Thankyou in advance for any assistance. We arrived from the UK on 90 Day O Visa and plan to apply for a 1yr O Visa Extension for our 2 adult Sons (Mother Thai) base on having Thai family. Thai Immigration have requested a Certified Copy by the British Consul of there British Birth Certificates, the British Consular service: Oaths affirmations and affidavits (Thailand), see there response below Thai Immigration Bureau does not require a letter from the Embassy in order to extend a visa within Thailand. Your adult children can complete an affidavit at their local Immigration Office. If your children have questions about their immigration status in Thailand, they should speak to your local Immigration Office or visit the Thai Immigration website. I suggest your children contact immigration to check if a certified copy of a British passport, or other service we provide, may be accepted in its place. Has anyone come across this situation is there other options, what can we do, our 90 Day Visa's expire on 09/02/2022

Thankyou in advance for any assistance as, l've always travelled on a 30Day Entry Visa: Arrived in Thailand 13 November from the UK. with my Thai Wife and our British/Thai adult Sons all with 90 day "O" Visa (Visiting Thai Family) which Expires 09/02/2022, l have already changed our flights to return to the UK to the 31st May 2022 for a short holiday. It was our intention to apply for a 1yr Marriage Visa for myself 61yrs, so 400,000THB deposited into the Bangkok Bank 09/12/2021 and 1yr Visa for my 2 Sons (British Born) aged 25, 27, based on there mother being Thai, again 400,000THB deposited into the Bangkok Bank 09/12/2021 Thai Immigration in Phetchaburi have give us some guidance but l'm still not 100%, were are getting my Sons British Birth Certificates Translated into Thai to present to Immigration in Chiang Wattana My Question is: 1) How do you make an appointment at Chiang Wattana for Visa changes 2) Should l book a Hotel nearby. 3) Is there any Forms l can download to make things easier/quicker 4) Would it be easier to just apply for Covid Visa Extensions instead 5) Also as we plan to travel back to the UK in May, how can you do this without cancelling the Visa Again, thanks for any tips in advance.

Seen this type of technology before, about 40yrs ago, it was used to as a sort of mechanical UPS to power the UK 50volt Telephone System, these Flywheels needed to buried under ground because of the huge amounts of kinetic energy and sat on floating magnetic bearings, next to no friction, no power loss, might even be spinning in a vacuum. It makes sense Battery storage is very expensive, inefficient and environmentally unfriendly.

We went to a Vaccination Centre in Surin 21/12/20 looking for a Booster, they had free Moderna Vaccine available but not for Farangs who had received 2 Pfizer jabs, my Thai wife received a Moderna Booster as she been give 2 Astra Zeneca jabs in the UK.

Hello, This is my very first post so please be gentle, Whilst l am sitting here in the UK patiently waiting for the "Thailand Pass" Website which has crashed yet again, to come back to life, l would like to spend these few minutes venting my frustration at the Donkey's who lead the Thai Civil Service in particular the "Department of Consular Affairs" yes YOU. To these people everything seems logical, but they just don't seem to think things through, but are quite eager to pat each other on the back for a job well done, all they have created is a bottle neck, it was very obvious for weeks before, they were so specific that the Thailand Pass go online on the 1st November. Firstly the the COE. Certificate of Entry was flawed, they killed it off too soon, on the 31st October thinking that everyone's application could be attended to, whilst people like me and l can only assume many others who had been pushed towards the "Phuket sand Box" scheme and locked in unable to there COE details for 15 days awaiting Flight updates that were never going to happen, Phuket was never my intended destination, just an option at the time. My frustration now is that out of my family of 4, 1 was rejected by the COE with all the same data in the application as the others, and now again with the "Thailand Pass" you guessed it out of my family of 4, 1 was rejected by the "Thailand Pass" meaning extra AQ hotels, Travel Insurance and Flight changes. Does anyone have any contact details telephone/emails for my friends at TP "Thailand Pass"?, suppose to be flying on the 11th Nov
