The normal (approved) size luggage, stuffed full, would rarely reach this much anyway. Even bringing back books for my wife from America just made the 25kg mark.

Yup, I await those future posts, they should be very entertaining.

Me too, but I am still holding out as long as possible on remitting anything to Thailand. I want to see the first guinea pigs that go through the tax process, and especially what happens to those who ignore the remittance rules, or play ignorant of them. If I can make it until Jan 1st before needing to remit anything, I should have a clearer picture of things.

WIFI is cheap here, just purchase a monthly plan and stop worrying about it.

I hope that some of us not sending remittance (or less than usual) to Thailand for use in the local economy has contributed to this dilemma, then may the TRD will wake up....who am I kidding....TIT

They aren't going to clarify anything, and they don't care about fair treatment, especially as it applies to Expats.

That's some high-quality engineering there....LOL

Italian-Thai Development, you know, the one who's President was arrested for killing, cooking, and eating an endangered black panther in a protected National Park.

That has got to be the most ridiculous comparison I have ever heard.

You mean putting up a bundle of "Safety First" signs wasn't enough?

You mean Nauru and Manus islands?

That fragile male ego, rejection isn't easy after being told all his life how wonderful he is by mommy and daddy.

Isn't this the same company owned by the state park panther eater?

People do realize you can make money no matter which way the stock market is head, right?

Well, that's a new take on the "brake failure" excuse.

Until they realize China is actually pulling the strings, God forbid they make the mistake of angering their Emperor.

A Thai male ego was tarnished, everyone, run!

Yup, Thai way of doing things, double down on your stupidity, nothing to see here, move along. It's just a misunderstanding.

Deja Vu.....again, and again, and again.....is anyone keeping count on these Rama II construction disasters?

Yes, it is dreadful, I wouldn't drink it if they paid me to do so.

I just patiently wait as oblivious Thais block aisles when they could easily move to the side, I've found they really don't care about anyone else, typically blocking a whole aisle with their cart while perusing through shelves. They are about as good at using a shopping cart as they are at driving down the road.

Wouldn't make any difference, I live in Nonthaburi, and the motorcycles shortcut through the construction cones all the time. Wherever their motorcycle fits, they just ignore all danger and do whatever they wish, basically undertaking/overtaking vehicles in the construction zone, TIT. They even shortcut through construction sites where workers have access through the jersey barriers, driving right through the jersey barrier gap (3 foot wide gap), then to add even more insanity to the process, they go through the jersey barriers and sometime head against traffic.....all to save time taking the correct/legal path. Come to Chaengwatthana-PakKret39 where they are installing the new Pink Line extension to Impact Arena Muang Thong Thani, you can watch them do this all day, that's with a well manned RTP booth within sight (at the intersection).

Thais don't care about laws, rules, or regulations. So I guess, in this case, what's good for the gander is good for the goose.

The last thing I want to be doing in Thailand is riding a bicycle in traffic, I barely feel safe in my car.

Well if you ever get your hands on it, post up a few pictures of the front cover, back cover, and copyright/publisher pages.
