next week, I am going to renew my Retirement Visa for the first Time

All I need is

1. go to my Bank and get the Statement, that 800.000 Bath are 3 months on my account

2. a Letter from my Apartmenthouse, that I live there

3. a passport-sized Foto

4. a Copy of my Passport and of the recent Visa

5. filling out the right Form

6. applying for a multible Entry

7. bringing enough Money to pay all Fees

did I forget anything?

coal miners - especially Indonesian ones. Banpu and ITMG come to mind. Supply blockages out of Australia are real, and indonesian miners are going to benefit from this.

samran - could you please tell me, on which financial website i can find their quotings?

Vertigo: And if the test is negative can she then pick another person and ask that person to be tested? Plus I thought in Germany, it is hard to get a man to get DNA tested.

DNA testing in the US can take some time. Not so cut and dry. Not sure you can do much if you are living in a foreign country trying to get DNA testing done on a person in the US. Not sure the authorities would be interested. You have to file in court and wait your turn.

The US embassy does not help people their own citizens when sh*it hits the fan so why would they be interested in helping a paternity case. Lets not kid ourselves on the role of the US embassy in ANY country.

She wants to file against him and be successful, then she needs to file against him in the county he resides in which means getting into the US and filing.

Best advice, is one that was already given. Get him to have some compassion, and agree to help out with her bills and finances. Try and get in touch with his family and ask them to please help persuade him (not them, but him) to help with his child, and their grandchild.

In future.. use a condom, or do not give birth unless married.

my two cents

thank you for your comments and advice

your first question : if the same person - this girl - would not have given in her first apply a possible second Candidate, they will refuse any further involvement

I strongly believe, that an us lawyer with department in thailand could handle the case without the presence of the mother and her child in the usa.

germany´s youth welfare department is quite powerfull - if a Father is not paying his financial duties to his child and the mother, he will even face prison

and yes - I use condom :-)

It is a controlled substance and legally cannot be purchased without a Prescription. It is illegal to have it in your posession without a prescription as well.

I totally agree to JimSiam, just go to a small clinic in pattaya, get your prescription - written with the exact dose - and you are free of hazzle

thanks for nearly all answers

i just want to inform you, how this would work in germany:

the german embassy would inform the german youth welfare department about this case,

they will inform the possible Father, that he will have to undergo an DNS Test, if he is denying

any involvment.

If he is refusing an DNA Test at all, it is probably clear, he will be seen as the Father.

if the DNA Test is positiv, he will have to pay for the test and will taken into duty to take financially care of his baby.

if the DNA Test is negativ, the german goverment is paying the costs for this test.

just would like to know too, how such a case is handled in other western countries, like usa as an example

This sounds to me like a situation that one should just stay clear of.

Wanting to help someone is always admirable, so the best advice you could give this girl is to hire a lawyer. If she doesn't have the funds to do that, she might try to find one that will consider taking on the case for a hefty portion of any cash settlement that is finally secured. I'm pretty sure that there are lawyers here who work with those terms, and if she talks to one who is typically willing work for a percentage of a settlement but won't take on her case, she's already learned that it's unlikely she's going to get very far going through proper legal channels.

thank you for your advice - but how a lawyer would act in this case?

contacting the us embassy?

I am sure, that this case is not a unique one....

A Thailady asked me for help, she has a 8 Months old Baby with an US Citizen,

but he denies the Paternity.

She knows the full Name of this Man - how can I councel her?

What steps and proceedures have to be done?

What rights she and her Baby have?

I am only familiar with the Laws in this case in germany ....

thanks to all for their nice smalltalk - but nearly nobody came to a fact about this issue

since i was reading in the forum here, that the internettraffic will watched for 90 days,

i just asked myself - and all the noble members of this forum - a simple question:

is watching pornographic web sites a crime?

You are living in Thailand and you want to watch Porn on your computer.... You need to get out more.

as i am not a natural english speaker, could you tell me the deeper meaning of

...you need to get out more .... ?

the parcel has 2,5 kg - time is not a real issue, but it should be save to send it from thailand to germany

any suggetions?

do not condem me for posting this question, but even the thai manager of my noble apartmenthouse

could not answer me that question.....

hi to all

hi to all

i was reading today in the bbc online an article about a crisis of the thai baht

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/special_report/..._woes/34487.stm

but as i checked this on yahoo, a total different effect showed up

http://de.finance.yahoo.com/currency/conve...;amt=1&t=3m

can anybody me explain this?

cheers

hello to all

i would like to establish a friendly society in thailand, which should be recognized by the thai- and the german goverment.

has anybody informations about this subject - or do any body know, where i can get propper informations about that?

any comment is welcome

cheers

has anyoe done it before with success?

which websites do you suggest?

how is the best way to approach a thailady with emails?

what suggestions do you have, meeting the choosen lady in real for the frst time ?

also ich glaube, dass sich so einige deutschsprachige mitglieder in diesem doch sehr informativen forum tummeln -

vielleicht sollte man sich mal hier kurzschliessen und erfahrungen austauschen .....

in old thai tradition, the good son of a father got the ricefields, the bad son the palm with the coconuts - now imagin this in all areas like pattaya, koh samui and the million beaches of thailand - the bad boys became rich !

many thanks to you, guys - but my google search turned out with success, and i have found a travellerguesthouse in manila

http://www.friendlysguesthouse.com/

hook up with people there, get advices and make friends

cheers

I have a Retirement Visa based on a 800.000 Baht, and in 4 Months, I will have to renew it.

Some Folks have told me now, that the Pattaya Immigration Office is asking for a 1.000.000 Baht on your Bank - is this the Truth?

Can one Immigration Office change the Rules by themselves?

Thanks in advance for any Answer.

Sign me up, please

I never have done it before to install a new XP Version - how do I proceed?

I have to mention, that I am using already a external USB-Keyboard, due to some Malfunctions in my

Laptop Keybord AND using an external DVD/CD-Player .....

With this external Hardware will it work out?

My Laptop is now nearly 2 Years old and by this Time, I got too many Errors in my Windows Application.

Now they are too much ....

I will try to resolve this Problem by buying XP Repair Pro - but if this fails, I will have to istall a new XP Version.

So how to do it, with loosing my saved Datas "C" on the "D" HD?

Thanks to all helpfull Advices.
