Time to clip those weapons?

I order off Lazada a lot, and the only times I've gotten the "wrong item", was when I didn't understand Thai and misread/assumed what I was ordering was the same as the photos shown. I can't blame Lazada for my inability to read the language of the country I chose to live in.

Alcohol Wholesalers Hit By Weak Holiday Season Sales
bbko replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Side note, ganga sales are at an all time "high". -
Yes, I did it this morning, downloaded the GO Wholesale app, entered my name, phone number, passport number, etc. Lots of promotions and lot's of free sample booths around, I guess to get customers in the door. Some items the same price as Makro, some cheaper.

Have the village committee members approached those not paying and ask them why? In a friendly non-confrontational manner of course. Another option is to print out a letter (in English & Thai) explaining the fees and pass it out to everyone's mailbox, then follow-up after a few days with a door-to-door visit with many residents, especially with those those not paying.

I'm not sure if it's still there, but there used to be a UPS store in Big C Extra, by the entrance/exit door by the food court.

This is my first time trying to use a package forwarding company from the USA to Thailand and I'm in contact with WSUSA but have a couple of questions about addresses. WSUSA told me to put "Amso" for the first name and put my full name for the last. Question; if I order off of Amazon, do I add WSUSA's address to my Amazon profile as my default shipping address and the name would look like this? "Amsco John Doe" 2nd question, how/where do input my Thai address for WSUSA to know where to send the package once it arrives in Thailand? TIA.

Thai-Italian man arrested for stealing petrol in Bangkok
bbko replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
According to Google, a Mercedes-Benz C0130 can hold 50L, so even if the tank was completely empty and it was refueled with the most expensive (Shell Super @48b/l, that's still only about 2400b. -

2600b of fuel? Wow, that car can hold a lot. Put 1000b in my car and it's full. -
Are you a mod?

IMO the polite thing to do would have taken the 1-2 seconds to remove an earphone to hear what was being said. If I was asked to watch someone else's bag or belongings, I'll say "I'll try, but it's not a guarantee". As for the OP saying the stranger was standing over him, it brought back memories of those comic book ads I used to see as a child.

It's today, Monday the 27th. Thai wife and friends putting out krathongs this evening.

Boy Air and Sound on Sukhumvit has been in business for many years. If I was looking to upgrade, I'd buy off Lazada then have Boy Air & Sound install. Or stop by and see what they have to offer.

At the top of Soi Nern Plab Wan at the temple (Wat Sudawas) they've had a festival for the past several days, I think it's for Loy Krathong.

Trump power grab comes into focus in leaked Georgia videos
bbko replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
tRump and his cult-like followers engage in stochastic terrorism. Stochastic terrorism refers to political or media figures publicly demonizing a person or group in such a way that it inspires supporters of the figures to commit a violent act against the target of the speech. -
The other day I purchased some stuff in my local 7-11, one or two of the items had the bonus stamp promotion, while at the counter the girl motioned/hinted if I wanted stamps, I said in Thai "yes, my son likes the stamps", she gave double what I would normally get. 7-11 girls are cute...555.

How to Bring Your Own whiskey bottle to Thai music pubs?

So you go up and inspect other people's bill in the bars? 555. -
So I'm a little more than half-way on getting my wife her "green card" visa to the states and after a year she's getting anxious. She's tired of waiting and wants to get the police clearance letter now, even though her vaccines won't be finished till Feb 2024. Anyone know how long it takes to get the police letter & how long it's good for? TIA.

Those in Pattaya welcome Chinese police in Thailand
bbko replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Let me preface this by saying I'm glad the Chinese police won't be patrolling in Thailand , BUT how is it the US Military Police are allowed to patrol in Thailand? -

bbko replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
If they want Chinese folks on patrol, why not have them join the Thai Tourist police volunteer group? Letting the Chinese patrol as their own force is absurd. -
Hezbollah warns of regional war if Gaza bombing goes on
bbko replied to CharlieH's topic in The War in Israel
The Hezbollah threatened "no-one would be able to stop the repercussions". Oh the irony. Hamas rained down 5000 bombs unprovoked and now they warn of a regional war?!?
