🤑That'll boost the brown paper bag sales a bit. By the time this and that committee is formed they'll be asking for more

The Weather Channel app on my phone says ฮุดร is 37o C at the moment and forecast the same for the next few days.

Besides the burning fields etc. I've got neighbours (and I'm sure other expats have too) who regularly burning plastics, rubber etc. in their gardens. Plumes of black smoke shifting into people's homes but no law enforcement comes to tell them to stop. Yet here is a government advising people against burning incense sticks????

Does that mean Immigration offices, Banks will be closed for 3 weeks???

There are many scientists working on data from JWST all in different "teams' depending on their knowledge and skill. Dr. Nicha along with Michele Trenti and Nicolo Delmasso were investigation high red-shift galaxy clustering and their paper was published last year. Earlier she was in another team, Takahiro Mori<deleted>a and a couple of others, investigating UV luminosity parameters. And still earlier in 2023 Dr. Nicha worked with Michele Trenti again and a couple of others, investigating, and I quote the paper title 'A massive interacting galaxy 525 million years after the Big Bang' unquote. So the scientists move around a bit. They get acknowledged by their native country, and why not indeed, as for example in the UK various medals (named after yesteryear pioneers) are issued for work and discoveries. So perhaps Dr. Nicha will get some Thai prize. I hope she continues to help expand our knowledge of the universe and perhaps one day Thais who follow in her footsteps may be awarded a medal named after her.

Don't think that is the case...well that is if you are commenting on Cosmology. Certainly NASA still holds that view because it is based on Einstein's work and the present Stand Model of Quantum Theory. What is hotly debated however, is how the universe will end. But of course you knew that anyway and just threw a negative in there for fun, eh?

As I understand the procedure members of the various teams that work on such projects, get results simultaneously so as to avoid individual claims. So yes, seems like Thai Press spinning things a bit.

This is a photo published in July 2022, One Dr. Nicha of NARIT' She was part of a team that found the most ancient galaxies yet observed using the JWST. She studied at both the Chicago University and California Institute of Technology.

Like the headline 'Dead wife caught husband...' Zombie or resurrected?

Oh I get it...throw soup over this one then lick it off? Now,now, naughty naughty.

I had a slim girlfriend once and she always complained that I hugged to tightly. So, my next girlfriend was chubby...tables turned...more than once I nearly suffocated.

I was thinking the same thing. On the 'fishy' part...another teacher heard some girls talking? l'd Like to know what that teacher heard and how the the parents got to know of it (via the girls or a teacher). Hope they keep us updated on this one.

Well, keep her away from me, I don't want her ฿ millions...would put me in higher tax category.

Playing games with life...well that's okay if if one is so inclined but doing it an inhabited (built up) area? Air flow conditions are not the same as those as a mountainside.

You might find it is January. Like many here I did not have a tax number. I do have one now. I visited the local area revenue building with what I thought would the necessary info and quoted the P.161/2566 amendment. The experience was a good one and all the personnel were very polite. After they showed me the deductions I was allowed (single, retied etc.) I paid the required tax due for January 2022 to this month, which was less than what I thought it would be when considering the guide Mike Lister has supplied (and what is on the Thai Revenue website) So there are probably personal details which have to be considered during the interview. Hope this helps

Hope the young lady recovers soon. When I came to Thailand I got stung on the knee and shin/calf areas. I suffered some swelling but a couple of locals applied some local plant preparation. I was okay the next day. I was told such preparation were only good for mild stings. After that I wore 'tights' and a 'T' sheet when sea bathing, which wasn't very often as I am not really a 'beach person'.

I don't anything about these two guys but it doesn't seem like they have promoted something insulting to Thais, they don't appear to have physically hurt or killed someone while driving/riding on Thai roads (non nod wink wink)...and if they are on overstay etc. then let immigration sort it out. I would have thought this type situation would be more appropriate in the 'younger set's' magazine(s).

Wonder if they are the same women?

I am a non-smoker...but are cigarette packets large enough to put all that on it? Seriously though, I think the risks of smoking have been around a long time but still people do it, as with other addictions. Probably go the same way with Weed.

Is that other oldie about playing chess in Bangkok still banned in Thailand?

'No'. Ha, . You obviously didn't read Mike Lister's reply to my comment which included '...Thailand doesn't operate those notification systems, especially not for foreigners.' That I don't agree with YOU has nothing to do with the law, which is correct. Don't try to make it look like I said that I don't agree with the law. I think you are just trolling.

Well, that's not really so. I was alerted last year elsewhere and my comments have been solely concerned about those whose circumstances are different from mine. I do not agree that it is everybody's responsibility. If those in charge change the rules then it is their responsibility to make it clear to those affected by the rules. But as Mike Lister reminded, Thailand doesn't do things that way.

Isn't that what I said...lawyer etc. I am not arguing about the law, those on forum like this are forewarned. But as I mentioned earlier there are those who are unaware and it isn't really their fault that there is no formal announcement system to alert them.

Yes. I understand. I only hope that an 'alert' is served through the banks or immigration so that those unaware of the change won't have to pay a penalty in the future. Thanks for the conversation. Have a nice evening.

That is ridiculous! You are saying that we should all know every section and subsection of the code...because that is what this topic is about. What was a 'loophole' has now been closed by an additional section. This is why there are lawyers and advocates...if we all knew it we wouldn't need such academics.
