One mod even asked why I chucked at a news-blip. Must have been a sponsored blip, as pushing EV in TH, what's available and good choice. Or something like that. I chuckled as BYD wasn't even mentioned, as other actually posted the obvious. I try not to post on AN staff news-blip postings now, as can't tell which are sponsored or what I'm allowed to post. Another was about PKK, and I disagreed in a negative manner with the OP, and that definitely was a sponsored vid. Can't be shining a bad light if they want people to come somewhere. Oops. Got warnings 2X in 2 days last week or so. Don't need them folks in my fan club Too late ... checked my profile shortly after, and had 3 recent views ... all mods Note to self ... stick to food and EV & Solar

Couple Shocked as Pet Dogs Bring Home 400 Meth Pills

I think that would be down to 'Imm office location' dependent. I simply stated what my Imm office requires. Obviously some are more 'relaxed', others, possibly asking for even more than mine. The only thing consistent with govt offices here, is the inconsistency.

You might want to lead with cost, as probably the most expensive monitoring system. You could get the 'urine' litmus strips, as I sampled them, and were surprisingly accurate, along with very inexpensive.

Couple Shocked as Pet Dogs Bring Home 400 Meth Pills

Or given a medal, as just imagine if some youngins found them, and thought they were candy. You assume a lot, that the dogs are vicious, or even roam the streets where kids play. May live very rural for all we know. Or even in urban setting, and well behaved. Nong Bua district, UT, can be either, but looking quite rural to me. We have plenty of dogs roaming around my area, and none are aggressive. That's saying a lot, since I walk our dog around the area. -
I'm sure the bean counters worked there numbers, and acted appropriately with the info 'they' had. It was during covid, and IF here, on an -0-, you weren't going anywhere. If coming when opened again, then added to -0-A-, and easy enough for people to understand. Well, most people. Since early arrivals had to be hospitalized when tested positive, it didn't take long to realize ... hey, let's require insurance, as too many didn't have it.

Man arrested after 18 years for assaulting minor in Thailand
KhunLA replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand News
It's easy enough to hide in any country. Having his name & home address is only good if he stays at his home. Doesn't state that in the OP, only that they arrested him at his home. May have been the first time he visited and stayed long enough to get caught at the home -
I don't believe they have changed the 0 non immigrant visa, for retirement or marriage, since I've been here, 25 yrs. They have enforced more of the rules, to stop people abusing it. Thank your fellow expats for that. But the requirements have not changed, I don't think, nothing noticeable. The did add health insurance to the 0-A visa, during covid, and that makes sense, since more than a few were stiffing hospitals. 0 non immigrant is easy to get & extend yearly, if you qualify, and all simple enough to do. After a tester, of a year or 2, if TH isn't for you, you can always leave, or if lovin' it, decide where to stay. More than enough people to assist without the scare mongering that goes on, from those that failed.

ICEV & BEV have about the same range, which is dictated, hopefully be my bladder, and not the wifes, so 3+ hrs. Kms don't even play a part, as usually could go another 60+ kms, before actually needing to top up. Might take 30 secs to plug in, if that, and same, if not less, to unplug. If I use the wall charger instead of granny charger, might take 10 secs longer. Yes, it's that simple.

And when we do charge up on the road, it's usually after a 3+ hour drive, and we're in no hurry to get back on the road. Even if in an ICEV, we'd still be at the station for 20+ mins, since having to stay with the car 10 of those, while topping up with petrol. Now with a dog, usually there 30 mins, and the car is done charging, about the same time we're done relaxing.

Say what ... guess I'll be boycotting Crown now. Take that Canada

Sadly, we use to fill up about weekly ourselves, ฿800-฿1300 a week. Our last ICEV, owned 2 years, so about ฿100k for petrol, and shy of 40k kms. Our present car, also just over 2 yrs old, and about same kms, is the BEV version of that same car (MG ZS), and most charging done at home, with Solar. Lots of hours saved, since no weekly petrol stop, along with lots of many. Smoother, quieter, and better performing ride.

This century, only 1/4 over, and has been pretty embarrassing. Probably killed 1M, and displaced 10X that many from their homes, in direct conflicts. Indirectly, USA, UK, FR, DE, IT & SP ...

Elon Musk: The Rise of Electric Cars is Unstoppable, Despite Trump
KhunLA replied to Social Media's topic in World News
We do grow quite a bit now. Much to my neighbor's delight, as gave them a bunch of Kale last night, and green/spring onions the other day. Produce way more than we can eat. They ain't getting any figs though ... mine mine mine. Don't think we can drink enough lemon water, so they be getting them soon. Everyone should have spinach, as grows wild here. Squash, asparagus, lettuce & tomatoes are growing good. Not sure what else she has out there. More fruits, but not producing till later this year. Actually have two more lots, we're thinking about using (1/2 rai), which I might add water tanks & solar to, for us, and the folks farming the 2 or 3 lots across from ours. Since they don't have water or electric. We already put one house on our water line, and don't think we can add another, as might affect the pressure. Though we use rain water a lot, and don't have enough tanks yet to utilize all that comes off the roof. So that will change this year. 100m² of roof produces 100k liters here/PKK, and we have ~130m² of roof. Need more tanks, but nowhere to put them on the 2 lots we're using now. I think we have only 9 water tanks now. I don't virtue signal, I just do for us, and saving money, and eating healthier is always a good thing. If neighbors benefit, and throw some fruits & veggies our way, when they have extra, then what I a beautiful world we can have. Debating on chickens for eggs, but seem more hassle than worth it. Eggs are still quite cheap, and full of protein in TH, with nice dark yolks. Next think you know, I'll be getting some fishing gear Wife just went out to the garden / Greenhouse for something else. This is this mornings haul ... On Topic ... as always of course ... Elon Musk other business aside from Tesla, and taking the USA by storm ... Energy Storage with huge battery farms, and more to come. Along with Tesla Wall thingys for home & business.
