  1. I pay my agent (who is also my landlady). 14 thousand baht a year to renew my extension of stay.

  3. I have always thought of Australia as a very advanced country. This item about the banks is surprising.
  4. Yes, the constant threat of invasion from Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, and Vietnam, requires a steady supply of teenage cannon fodder to keep the hostilities going.
  5. What the HELL is "over-tourism"???? The mere concept is laughable. Money from tourism does not seem to bother any Thai merchant. We spend money, YOU reap the benefits.
  6. Obviously, if he had not been in Thailand, this would have never happened. The ultimate Thai catchall phrase that releases every Thai from personal responsibility.
  7. Asean Now is tolerating the most vile anti-Jewish content of any forum online. I frequently can't believe what I am reading. "Openly Jewish", indeed. He must have been well-bathed rather than stinking like an unwiped arse.
  8. I always tip. Usually 40 baht. These people are making substandard wages. I couldn't live with myself if I failed to tip them something. They deserve it. If the waitress is old or ugly, I generally tip more.
  9. Thanks, so much. That's the article I found originally. This sounds encouraging.
  10. I noticed a brief article, which I seem to have misplaced, about ThaiPost getting into banking. Could someone shed more light on this development? I can't find much about it in English.
  11. "Openly Jewish"??? I've never met any closeted Jews. What a revolting anti-semitic description.
  12. Bring back "bad language". Is this forum composed of five-year olds? No censorship....EVER.
  13. Hopefully there will be no banned words. The audience is not children. Let the profanities and obscenities flow freely.
  14. They now want copies for 90-Day reports. I've watched them shred the copies after you turn them in along with the TM-47.
  15. Powerful video. I hope the right people are watching it.
  16. It's hard to believe that Iran has not been reduced to rubble by now. They've been causing problems since the late seventies and the world just allows them to hold us all as hostages.
  17. If he gets the visa in the UK, won't that be an "OA" with the onerous health insurance requirement? Seems best to go to Laos and apply for an "O" visa.
  18. Actually, the 90-day reports serve the function of justifying the grossly inflated staffing at Immigration. Without this requirement, most of the staff would be sitting idle and have no papers to shuffle.
  19. Every now and then, some Thai official asks "Why do we do this?" The recognition that certain information serves no valid purpose is a step in the right direction.
  20. Personal vendettas are a favourite Thai hobby. They want full credit for doing nothing.
  21. Victimless crimes are serious business in Thailand. Just refrain from negative opinions on anything.
