  1. This line made me smile; "66 year old Yongyuth's life" (Young youths)
  2. In Thailand it's called Territorial Defense Student (นักศึกษาวิชาทหาร) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_Defense_Student
  3. I don't know if this is an official policy, but I've heard someone is luk khrueng, they aren't pulled into military service here.
  4. So if someone can't have a social drink in a bar or restaurant then they "may well turn their attention to other "happiness invoking substances" and could possibly become a catalyst for a more serious form of drug addiction."? Sounds like they didn't need much to push them into being a drug addict.
  5. "This follows a general crackdown on what the RTP calls obscene and pornographic content on OnlyFans and similar services..." Sounds like a good name for a military cosplayer on OnlyFans..."General Crackdown"
  6. Anyone have 1st hand knowledge of the actual fine these folks had to pay? We all know the possible maximum, I'm looking for the amount these guys paid.
  7. Talk with the Home Pro Customer Service Desk, many times on sales like this they have connections with installers.
  8. I found this on the US Embassy's website; If you reside in Thailand and have other questions regarding services provided by the Social Security Administration (SSA), you must contact the SSA Federal Benefits Unit (FBU) located in U.S. Embassy in Manila, Philippines. For more information on their services and how to contact them, please visit their webpage at: https://ph.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/social-security/
  9. Read this off their website: Choosing the right way to send money with Wise will largely depend on your payment method. Some payment methods are faster than others. Some can be instant, while others are cheaper.
  10. Maybe contact this company in Bangkok and see if they can help you; https://www.glassisgood.co.th/en/product/glass-top/
  11. "plans to focus on Indian and Russian tourists first" What does that mean to the average farang on the street? Hotel discounts? BOGO free in all the bars?
  12. I'm guessing as the country opens up to tourists that were vaxed back in their home country, the mor prom app won't be a deciding factor for many establishments.
  13. I did my very first Wise transfer this month (US to Thai), and due to a misunderstanding on my part it took 3 days. I read the part about the two small money transfers wrong. I'm guessing my next transfer will go a lot quicker.
  14. https://www.dlt.go.th/en/renew-license/
  15. Huge thread with a lot of info;
  16. Click box 1 or 4, and if asked you say you didn't see as much as Thailand as you wanted due to everything being locked down and things are reopening Oct 1.
  17. “The good old days” are just easier to “live” in and romanticize because they are over. There’s so much certainty in them. You already know what happens. You already know who’s who, what’s what, what means what and how the story “ends”. The present demands that you engage with it and find comfort in not knowing the story (or how it ends).
  18. Lock this 23 y/o in the IDC, serving him meals that would make Oliver Twist say "Uh, no thanks" and see how fast he comes up with the 20k.
  19. "Copies of passport page with all previous visas" Copies of all previous visas? Is this something new or just specific to the OP's IO?
  20. Don't drive too far left or you'll have a head-on collision with Mr Som Chai driving on the wrong side of the road.
  21. The limit of 500 was made on BPH's Facebook page the same time the walk-in announcement came out. Perhaps some missed it, or it was lost when partial info was passed from one person to others, or some just flat out ignored it.
