For Expats only. Thinking the unthinkable.
NoDisplayName replied to swissie's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
That is incorrect. Article 5 “The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently they agree that, if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence recognized by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area. Any such armed attack and all measures taken as a result thereof shall immediately be reported to the Security Council. Such measures shall be terminated when the Security Council has taken the measures necessary to restore and maintain international peace and security.” Article 5 has each individual nation "assist" by undertaking "such action as it deems necessary." There is no guaranteed military response. Assistance can take any form.........including sternly worded letters to ambassadors or fiery speeches at the UN, or nothing if that's what is deemed necessary. -
Immigration police promotions dogged by rumours of nepotism
NoDisplayName replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
So, ummm.....is this where I insert the Youtube video clip from Casablanca? "I'm shocked....." -
Scam. Others in her alleged tour group would help her. Nobody gets money from an ATM just before crossing the border. Foreign banks won't normally send a card to random foreign address, shirley, not the next day. Next time, offer to call the real police. Not that they'd actually respond, or be willing or able to help, but to see her response.

You'll need to visit the bank or broker to open any account. You may be asked for a residence certificate or work permit. Once set up, you can buy/sell mutual funds online at Bangkok Bank, or buy/sell stocks at Bualuang. If you're in Bangkok, the Bualuang Office is located near the Silom branch of Bangkok Bank.

Policeman In Hot Water For Letting Chinese Tourist Wear Uniform
NoDisplayName replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Cop should be fired. Not for letting the tourist wear his uniform, but for being stupid enough to be photographed in the Chinese tourist's selfie. That's the sort of fellow who might write "bribe" on an official receipt. -
Chinese EV's set to disrupt Thai Automarket
NoDisplayName replied to CharlieH's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
You might think so, if you consume CIA/Felongong propaganda. That video of fields of EV's I suspect you probably viewed on one of those sites on Youtube was a fleet of cars from a bankrupt cellphone e-rideshare app. -
Bangkok Bank in NYC : Opening an account
NoDisplayName replied to johnkm's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
New York branch of Bangkok Bank is not available to you. Any bank can SWIFT your funds quickly and easily. Your only difficulty will be opening a bank account in Thailand. Wise will get you a better exchange rate, but transfers don't always receive the proper FTT coding indicating foreign sourced funds required for immigration. The exchange rate difference may be a wash, though, as SWIFT transfers have a set cost while WISE charges a percentage fee. You'll have to do the maff to confirm. -
Are you planning to remain in Thailand, retired, or is this just a one-year visit then return to Australia? If one year and return, don't bother with the non-O. Get the METV for nine months. I assume you could then leave for Cambodia for a couple weeks, then return on a visa waiver for 30 days, plus a 30-day extension.

Taking motorbike into Laos from Tland

That was the information you were asking for. But Morch gave you the free solution. It works. Took 30 seconds to locate and install the uBlock extension for Firefox. Works perfectly once other adblockers are disabled on the Youtube page.

I've been taking statins (simvistatin) for 'bout 20 years. Originally had all high numbers, with total cholesterol around 300+. I was running marathons, cycling cross country, eating healthy, so not much lifestyle changes I could have made. I believe it's mostly genetic. With statins (20mg/day) all my numbers are normal. My current diet consists mainly of pizza, KFC, tater chips, donuts and soda. Hardly exercise any more, jog/cycle/weights a few times a week. I get a blood test every 3-4 months and adjust dosage accordingly. Statins are cheap, blood tests are cheap. Why not start with your doctor's recommended dosage for 3 months and see how you respond? Have a lipid panel done every 30 days.

Wise (TransferWise) Verification
NoDisplayName replied to connda's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Easy. Three options. Connect your phone to your computer using the charger/data cable and transfer between directories, or send the photo file from phone to computer via bluetooth, or email the photo file from the phone to yourself and download on the computer. -
Using dollars in Cambodia is stupid
NoDisplayName replied to MrPancake's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Why would you do that? Shirley, you'd take your big, handsome, crisp $100 bills to the local market and exchange whatever you estimate you'll need for your visit. Then all your purchases will be with riel, no dollars.
