  1. Booking.com is a subsidiary of the US company, Booking Holdings, who is the parent and owner of booking.com. "Booking.com is one of the largest online travel agencies.[1][2] It is headquartered in Amsterdam, and is a subsidiary of Booking Holdings." Yes it was founded in The Netherlands and its headquarters are based there but it is now an American owned company. Philips and ASML are Dutch companies.
  2. No LOTO of E/M systems, workers take shortcuts and this is how accidents happen. A trained lift technician should know the procedures and also the engineering manager and safety in charge at the airport who should be overseeing the safety of workers on their equipment on their premises.
  3. Here is a recent thread on selling gold coins. Seems the OP had success in Pattaya. link aseannow sell US gold coins
  4. Haha, so the same foreign tourists entering on 30 days and extending for 30 days (total 60 days) did not allow for those same foreigners to work illegally in Thailand?
  5. How did you come to that conclusion, please elaborate on your knowledge. I would say keyboard xenephobes are virulent.
  6. Any reason not to book directly with the airlines? I have always found the prices to be cheaper directly.
  7. They are all part of the same US company Booking Holdings https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booking_Holdings Take a look at the recent reviews on trustpilot for booking and agoda. There is some interesting info on booking.com wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booking.com https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agoda
  8. How will that stop individuals who want to overstay?
  9. Ever sat in a barbers chair in Thailand expecting a certain style of haircut and being on edge hoping for the ordeal to end as you watch in the mirror your head receiving this odd haircut. Happened to me a few times and in the end just asked for all the hair cut off equally with a razor.
  10. Try an international hotel with a business centre. One of them may have one.
  11. In this day and age, why are they still calling it monkeypox. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mpox Nomenclature The name monkeypox was originally coined because the disease was first identified in laboratory monkeys.[3] This was subsequently criticised as a misnomer, because monkeys are not the main host or reservoir. It was also criticized because the name reinforced stigma about African countries as a source of disease.[17] After requests by a number of public health organisations and scientists, who argued that these issues were harming the fight to contain the disease outbreak,[18] the subtypes of monkeypox virus were renamed clade I and clade II in August 2022. The World Health Organization announced in November 2022 that it "will adopt the term mpox in its communications, and encourages others to follow these recommendations".[6]
  12. Hot means hot as in illegal goods or hot as in heat (freshly cast ingots)? Really strange that they could form a company and set up such a plant for recycling aluminium dross. Were they using a thermo-mechanical process or chemical process to recycle the dross. for eg a dross recycling plant in New Zealand
  13. Usually dealt with through the contact, tech specs, claims and warranty arbitration and the court.
  14. Animal breaking the law...lol. Just pathetic psychos who want to control, inflict pain and harm on other species.
  15. Since the advent of computers,increasingly govt and employers are becoming more intrusive and requiring criminal record checks for all kinds of jobs. To the OP, it would be convenient and easier if you get a CR check whilst still in Thailand and then it does not have to be applied for from abroad should an employer need something like that.
