If you don't mind going to BNH, I strongly recommend Dr. Krirk Asavametha. He is Chicago trained therefore no problem with language. He listens and works jointly with his patients to solve problems, something many Thai doctors do not do. 

I left it blank and asked the officer what to write. She said "Thailand Elite" .

Just did my 90 day report after skipping one that was due in April. No questions asked. New report due on November 3rd.

Hi ,did you do the 90 day report at Chaeng Wattana? I received an email from Thailand Elite stating that the 90 day report (counter A) has been moved entirely to Muang Thong Thani Centre but that the 90 day extension (counter N1) must be done at Chaeng Wattana Immigration. If its the case, do you know which I should do first? Or would it make no difference? Thanks in advance.

One billion to the kids and one billion to the Sino-Thai overlords.

As a crewman just enter where the application is being made and it'll give you the time

Yep, that tells me how long until I can  schedule an appointment ,which I have already done. I was more interested in how long it takes, on average, to return the passport with visa attached. Thanks though .

I will be applying for a C1/D visa for the USA at their embassy in Bangkok. I enter USA every few weeks and stay a couple of days for work/training . It will be my 4th time applying and second time applying in Bangkok (was given a 10 year visa last time). UK passport holder. I wonder if anyone has a rough idea of how long it takes to attach the visa and return the passport (Bangkok address), assuming there are no problems with the application. I will go for the visa interview on the 19th August and plan to fly out of BKK on the 28th August. I forgot how long it took last time to return my passport so anyone with recent experience, would be great to hear from you.

HIV was first discovered between homosexual gays.

Can you deny that? with one single prove in front of everybody.

No, HIV was first discovered between heterosexual gays. Buffoon. Put down the Chang and go home.

He has made a clear choice to remain ignorant on this topic. He refuses to believe that ,globally, more heterosexuals than homosexuals are living with hiv. He believes heterosexuals don't have sex out of lust but for the express purpose of procreation only. He is incredibly unread and uninformed- through choice.

It is more important for him to state falsehoods, degrade and demean gay people in order to show everyone how macho and heterosexual he is. Probably from a bar stool in Pattaya with a hooker on his arm that he is soon to marry.

Because I used to think HIV can spread through normal sex between a male and a female, now that I know the HIV predominantly spread through homosexuals I'm at a great relief.

Except ,of course, that you are completely wrong.  You know, if you are able to use a computer, you should be able to educate yourself. But I am still not buying that excuse, I think you are suffering from internalised homophobia and self-hatred. You think the more you marginalize and invalidate gay people with your ignorant and false statements, the more heterosexual you will seem. In fact, the opposite is true, if you were so comfortable with your sexuality you would see no need to spread lies and hatred.Just keeping it real for you.

Makes it easier for him to pay his tea money.

Why do you feel the need to make ignorant and inane comments whenever anything regarding gay people is in the news? Is there something about yourself that is terrifying you? Are you secretly gagging for some man-on-man action? Because your obsession with this topic is very suspect. I'm just saying.

When a man have sexual intercourse with a female that is not lust because it is normal behavior  which result in breeding children so human can not extinct but when a man decides to have sexual intercourse with another male that is lust by preferring males over females.

Ok you ignorant buffoon, so what is it when a man sleeps with a woman who cannot have children? Or a man who  cannot have children? Or when a man purchases the services of  hooker, did he plan to have a kid with her???? None of those is lust??! <deleted>, you a just an old bigot! <deleted>, you make no sense at all ,fool.

This is what you get when some males insist of having sex with same gender only for the pleasure of lust which is also against human nature.

Ok genius, then how to you explain that the vast majority of HIV infected individuals globally are heterosexual ? Or is this just an opportunity for you to put you bigotry on full display? This is 2017 you muppet, although it may not seem so from your bar stool in Pattaya! 

My son (Thai citizen) has been accepted to take a 2 week course at Kings College over the summer. Looking at the visa requirements, they state to bring his TB test results, but the very next page state that if the visa is for less than six months (it will be for 2 weeks) then its not necessary. The test has to be done through their approved hospitals, via an outsourced office, its time consuming and expensive! Anybody have any experience with this? I have emailed for clarification but have yet to hear back. Appreciate any info.

Dr Krirk Asavametha at BNH hospital specializes in Infectious Disease. Have heard only good things about him. (Believe he also does some hours at Samitivej)

So, why didn't the media go after the kid that killed 9 people while texting the way that they are going after Jenphop? I don't see anything different between "two young, bright students" and 9 other lives who did not get the same social media attention.

Are some HiSo more connected and protected than others? Gives cause to ponder...

The two kids that died are connected to the highest authority in the land who are watching this case . Its unlikely this will be brushed under the carpet. For what it is worth, the guy is gay, heavily addicted to crystal meth and antidepressants and (according to his employees),a vile person to work for.

Hi, PM'ed you the number of a BKK lawyer who is also a notary,cheers.

I am about to get my 3rd five year elite visa (original programme member). I just spoke to the service centre regarding this exact subject. The information tpkhk gave regarding the elite visa is 100% accurate. I cannot speak for other visa types.

I just had a new passport issued (blank booklet) here in Thailand. My old passport has the SE visa and the entry stamp.

Need to go to Immigration in Chaeng Wattana to do a two step process;

1. (Transfer / Restamp) the arrival stamp into the new passport. This can take a few hours.

2. Once the arrival stamp is in the new passport, need to get in another queue/window to have the (SE) visa sticker placed into the new booklet. At a minimum, you will be able to conserve any unexpired visa time.

The process is slightly different for those flying into Thailand with a new passport, issued overseas. In this case, the (SE) visa in the expired passport needs to be presented upon arrival and immigration will stamp the arrival details into the new booklet. You will need to go to Chaeng Wattana to get the visa sticker in the new booklet (which seems like a 15 minute process).

Some countries allow you to continue to present an expired passport with a valid visa... no need to transfer it to the new booklet, but this is not the case for the above visa.

Hope this helps,

Do you have an official source from where that information can be verified ?

How about removing the 6 smartly dressed people who stand on the skywalk above the Erawan shrine and pounce on every tourist who stops to take photos, promising them special one day deals on gems and silks etc. They have a flotilla of tuk-tuks waiting down below to whisk the gullible tourists away. God knows where they end up. The masses of tourist police and press there yesterday just watched these people at work. Today, no tourist police (because no press).

I get the Toyota Camry... I used to get the BMW 7 Series, but Thai Elite moved the goal posts a few years back.

I purchased Life time Thai Elite Membership for 1 MB approx 9 years ago.

Could it be that 'Original Members' (Lifetime / 20 years) are offered the Camry, and the 5 year members get the BMW 7 Series ?

I've also been provided with the AOT Van when travelling with my family and a lot of luggage.

I am going into my 10th year (original 1m) with Thailand Elite. Yes, the 5 year visa get a BMW 7 series transfer and we get a Camry. We don't have a limit on the number of times we use the transfer though (I use it roughly 4 times a month), golf or spa services. 5 year visa holders are limited to 24 transfers/12 months.

They have no idea. They just keep making announcements as if they have a clue. They do not. The two others in the shrine, for whom an arrest warrant was issued, just turned themselves in. They are tour guides. Again, the authorities have no clue what they are talking about.

Has anyone taken out a membership or been to enquire about the price at Virgin Active gym, Emquartier. I havent had a chance to visit the gym, but have heard its close to B3000 per month. Any info greatly appreciated.

April 1st?
