The Catholic Church recently said there is no purgatory or limbo, and evicted all the souls living there waiting to go to heaven, I want to know where they are and if they are OK. Asking for a friend.

Called immigration today and I will have to report to renew my retirement visa which is due on May 11

.

I just called the immigration office in Sakon Nakhon and I will still have to report to extend my retirement visa for 1 year. It should be easy without all of the other issues.

I am 75 years old with mild COPD, my retirement visa expires on May 11, I am staying home until I feel safe to venture out. Is there any talk about giving an extension for retirement visas. I am not going anywhere so a three month extension would be better for me and the immigration officers.

I walked into my local hospital and they gave me a mask, cheap green one but still.

were I in an immigration office, I would quickly put up gypsum walls with counters and glass windows and a shuttle drawer. they are on the front lines. 

Recently read that the seasonal flu causes death in .02 cases, that would mean that this virus at 2-3% is something to be really on your toes about. Wash your hands and keep them away form your face, mask in crowded enclosed spaces and aware of whether the guy next to you looks sick. Just be careful and aware, not to be downplayed. Get your info from the cdc or W.H.O, not from Fox News.

Big hit to the economy as many people laid off, my wife has a cousin who was told to check back in 3 months after being let go, the ramifications are that a lot of people living on subsistence wages will be suffering as will the families that they support, companies will close up shop, already in my small village many restaurants have closed because people are not eating out. Supply chains drying up all over the world. I am not sure how much is not being said, suppressed. This has been little more than a month in the making and it shows how ill prepared the world is for this kind of event. Especially many third world countries. Wish I had something positive to end this post with, but I don't. There is a 2% mortality rate with this virus. 

Death rate of 3-4%. Scary

obviously not the amulet that protects you from thieves with screwdrivers.

As with everything else. I will wait to see what hoops I have to jump through, but I will not let fear be my guide. 

They have list on what reason you want to transfer your money, recently they added a category that says long term stay in thailand, since using this option I have had no trouble seeing it with the international transfer symbol.

The sound you are hearing is a creaking door. This is a trial balloon.

Just off the phone with Bangkok bank and they are aware of the problem and said that if you go to your branch and ask for a credit advise document from them, they will verify that it was an international transfer. I will need to do this before next May when I renew my visa. Hope it works TIT

Looks like a welcome drink on the table, room probably wasn't ready.

google aa thailand, free group therapy.

All depends on the tone?! ;-) :-(. It could be just people of European origin but it all depends on the perception of the person and the context. This is a very nationalistic country.

My bill went through the roof, the moo-ban didn't pay the electric so they put the street lamp on my line. Bah boom.

Sometimes if you enroll in their fan club they give you extra weight with checked luggage ie. Nokair, carry on I have been checked once and they charged exorbitant fees, having said that one time I was on a plane and dropped a very heavy bag and was not happy to see that their was a small child in the aisle that it barely missed.

I am happy to live here in thailand, Thais are on a different economic scale than westerners. In most instances you get a great deal in housing and food and many other things, the buses are incredibly cheap, just a few baht for everyone. I hear a lot of complaints about park fees and zoos, but suck it up. You can get a discount card at the movies. All in allow we are in a sweet spot.

Sex for security. Age old formula.

Trump put an ad in an obscure Florida publication asking for workers to his mar-a-largo resort and he said to respond by fax making it as hard as possible to apply, then he asked for visas saying he could not get local workers. I would imagine it is a legal process that has to be gone through by his stateside employer. Good luck with it. Have a lawyer help you.
