It's a USA-UK-NATO-EU vs RU conflict and been going on since end of WW2. Nothing has changed, and nothing will.

Being stuck behind people using plastic for simple, inexpensive shopping takes the convenience out of 7-11 / convenient stores & fast food vendors. Use a phone app if you must. Annoying & inconsiderate

Just another embarrassing farang, doing things here he probably wouldn't do in home country. Total menace to himself & others. F'g idiot

Not puzzling at all, as TH, like myself, probably doesn't know who to believe, or even care. So instead of ignorantly voting without knowing the facts, simply gave it a pass.

I like doing the same things everyday, and as long as the wife is 'receptive', then I won't need to do a divorce over again ????

Agree, not even close, Gmaps vs PlugShare:

Better research = Better life experiences No plan = Plan to fail ... your choice If you drive around with a can to put petrol in you ICE, then you may want to invest in a solar power station, then again, why bother, as you'd probably forget to charge it up before leaving anyway Just can't fix stupid ... ????

Do people over the age of 20 actually still run out of petrol. Must be the same folks that planned their retirement so good in TH and had to return after a couple years. If you can't find a CS, you're not looking very hard.

Anyone 'having' an EV, should use PlugShare site. Those not having an EV,, well, you might as well just use the Swenson's ice cream site ... great ice cream.

A silver lining ... "Since the boy arrived at the home for children and families no family member has bothered to come and pick him up." ... freedom, a beautiful thing ????

My PEA (electric) Aug 2021-Aug 2022 was about 2500-3500 alone, and that's PEA's rate, before the latest increase, along with no landlord surcharge. 2 ppl, 1 small AC, in sm bedroom. Not sure what you're renting for 4k baht, but sounds about as basic as can be, certainly not new, which means that AC is going to suck up some juice. You can have a simple existence here inexpensively, though don't know what visa you would qualify for. I've never lived anywhere for more than 8 yrs, and that's only because I owned the house, in a situation, that I couldn't move. Usually after 3 yrs max, I move on to somewhere new.

Yea ... mine (USA) also, and it's almost impossible to do. Only say 'almost' as I try 'never to say never' ... but ... simply not going to happen. Not in a Republic, of 50 different states. Election every 2/4 yrs, so no need to tolerate anyone for long time. Plus those 100 million gun toting maniacs, kind of outnumber the military.

My installer charges 20k (I think) for registration to feed in. Says he's one of the cheapest, which I can't verify, but not a sales pitch, knowing my system doesn't quality, and me, not wanting to have anything to do with PEA/MEA. Reason being, the 20k, he has to pay independent contractors/engineer for the certification to satisfy PEA/MEA. Says some installers, charge up to 50k, whether exaggerated or not, or what size system charge is for, I don't know. But the 20k doesn't sound too much of a stretch. Especially when there's money to be gained, that "you need, or else" mind set. On a 5kW system, how much extra will you be generating. May be a while for that ROI. We're using 15-20 a day now, and it's not even hot out yet. We've produced 49kW, but that's 8kW inverter, w/ 18 (.540w) panels. Actually used shy of 31kW and fed the grid shy of 27kW. Most sites state, 5kW will generate 15-20/25kW (?) a day, I think. Doesn't leave a whole lot to export.

I hope he's not the Minister of Health, with that all important 'engineering degree' ... ... everything is wrong with that photo ... and the farang is the dirty one for not accepting ????

As stated, if you have to ask, you already know the answer. Consider the assoc/maintenance fee is divide among owners, and if you are 1 of the few ... hmm If having lifts, as suggested, make sure you're on the 1st/2nd floor.

You must be Thai, so you wouldn't notice. And you don't have to be at a tourist destination to get scammed. I'll walk in front of the wife when at the fresh market, or any vendor where prices aren't posted. Tell her what I want, and she'll go back to buy it, as too many times in the past, I've been charged more than her. This even at local market. Sometimes attempted to charge me considerably more, 50%-double to the price. Or I'll wait for a Thai to buy the same, make sure I'm standing next to them, and simply say I want the same, after I saw them pay. Easy enough. Also asking in Thai, how much, helps, then they realize you're not a noob. To state it doesn't happen simply points out your extreme bias or ignorance. As pointed out, Nat Park & hosp are prime examples & sadly, Govt endorsed ????

Along with old folks of all race, religion, sexual preference, nationality, gender & size. Along with young & mid aged folks with all the labels above. World is full of A-holes, what's new. Do we really need another label. "Thainess Matters" ... TLM.com .org .net Donations accepted ... I could use a nice Cat docked at Phuket

Damn spell checker got me again ... ????

I'm wondering why you didn't just buy the filter and change it yourself, especially since already having the oil.

Don't know about Patts, but here in PKK Changing from mine to hers is easy, anywhere ... ????
