How recently must the letter be dated? Is a week acceptable?

nobody likes AirBnB apart from the users and the owners. I wonder why?

11 December 2025! Good to see that all plastic bags now cost a small amount. Has it changed the behaviour of the Thai shoppers, do you think? 

Do you mind telling us what it is that you make with the plastic? Are you still doing the same process now in 2018?

It would be helpful if we had an idea of the numbers of people who either do not have and will not have the 800k/400k in a bank for 3 months on Jan 1st. There will be many who will overstay and be fined if this issue is not resolved. There will also be many who will be forced to leave if they are unable to raise the required money in a very short time-frame. Many of those might be long-term residents, 10-20 years or more. How can they survive on a minimal pension if forced to return to UK or the EU? The relevant Embassies have a hand in creating this major headache and bear responsibility for not providing adequate notice. Is this an issue with the various Foreign Ministries?

Just to make those of you not aware of the situation, which seems to be a few judging by the numbers who say they will return to the UK for treatment, since April 2015, you will pay 150% of the price of the treatment. Accident and emergency is still free.

If youre healthy, don't buy it, as medical procedures are so cheap, they are almost free here. Only insure against major disasters. Otherwise, invest the money monthly in case you need it, instead of throwing it away on a policy youre unsure will payout in the event of a claim.

.

Remember, insurance companies are the pros. We aren't. They ran all the numbers, and only offer policies that will benefit THEM, not us.

Medical procedures are so cheap? Which mythical, magical hospital have you been visiting? We need to know this place.

Generally, which one is better for price/coverage and actually paying out AXA or BUPA ?

I'm looking for a policy also. I can't figure out if bupa platinum 2 mil covers chemotherapy, radiation, dialysis. I don't need them but if I ever did and didn't have cover I'd probably have to move home especially for dialysis permanently. Anyone know which policy or company has that as inpatient or paid for on an inpatient only policy even on outpatient basis?

Be careful of assuming that you can return to the UK and get free NHS treatment, you can't.

This from another forum. I believe you are describing a "Tah-Kaw" tree. My Thai friend brought over two 18" saplings about nine months ago, telling me, "These will give you shade, very quickly." OMG, in 9 months, they've grown higher than my house roof (17-18 feet/5-6 meters). It's unbelievable. And, I now have the little red berries (about as large as a small marble, right?) but didn't have the courage to see if they were poisonous or not! Apparently you survived. The berries were preceded by small white blossoms about 1/2" to 3/4" across.

The OP wants flour, not oil or butter. Coconut flour is a low glycemic index alternative to wheat flour to make bread etc. http://www.21food.com/products/coconut-flour-330109.html

I imagine there was no rape involved, sex yes, but between the dead couple. Jealous boyfriend finds them and goes berserk. And yes, he is quite likely to have packed his clothes in a hurry that night and not noticed the blood and yes his prints will be easily recoverable from the hoe and yes, if the DNA matches, he's away for a long time.

This link is useful if you are in the USA and need to renew your Thai passport. http://traveltips.usatoday.com/can-renew-thai-passport-usa-106183.html

how do you pump it full of air after draining the water from the oildrainy thing? My 255 ex is the same, runs all the time.

Does anyone know if the US nursing qualifications are accepted for a nurse wishing to relocate here to Thailand? She is a Thai national and has finished her training in Missouri, USA. She needs to move back to Thailand and wants to work here. Many thanks for any info. Does anyone know where I should look for such info?

This explains it pretty well, and yes, it is illegal. http://www.samuiforsale.com/real-estate/nominee-structured-companies-and-transfer-of-land.html

This is an interesting read. http://www.samuiforsale.com/real-estate/nominee-structured-companies-and-transfer-of-land.html

I'm thinking of moving away from Thailand. Today we saw on TV the police stopping cars driven by medical personnel and doctors who were carrying medical supplies to the injured protesters in Bangkok. The police then smashed the windows and disabled the cars, making sure the injured would not be treated. They hide behind gas mask, just as they do in other police states, (USA, Russia, Syria etc.) and laugh at the disregard with which they hold the law. It is rumored that someone has employed gunmen to mingle with the protesters and randomly shoot them dead, scaring others away from the anti-Gov't rallies. The gov't is a weak puppet run from Macao or Dubai or wherever. Another bus crash in the north killed 29 people today, a situation that has been in place for 50 years and will remain in place as long as rogue bus companies pay the gov't MPs to ignore safety and the excessive hours and speeds the drivers are forced to employ to keep to the schedules. Along with daily corruption at every level, this Land of Smiles has slowly become a rat infested, leaking, festering abscess on the face of the earth. It's a pity, it could be paradise.

Because ugly old gits who screwed up their marriage/s in the UK only have a hope of finding a wife here in Asia because the Asian women see farangs as being good-looking, no matter how old and ugly they really are. It's all a matter of perception. And because they think farangs are rich. I asked my wife.

If you Google 'Cambodian slaves in Thailand' you get some disturbing news.

Just for a giggle, try them with the word, peanuts. On a more serious note, asks, write, wrong, very, worry, query, serious and many more. I teach English and spend 10% or more of my time on pronunciation.

Not too surprised that the officer taking the initial statement, Pairoj, was a man.

I teach privately; around 4-6 students a week. They are mostly Uni graduates. They all suffer from the same problem; they have no experience of speaking any English. They can read, write and up to a point, listen, fairly well. Until the teachers are taught to conduct the classes only in English and speak only English in the classroom, the students have no hope.

btw, I speak three languages.

What a disgrace.

Thai troops have to withdraw from Thailand ground due to an order by FARANG.

Why can't Farang mind your own business.

This is a Thai problem, and Thai people can solve it, no need Farang referee.

Thailand belong to our Father, not Farang.

Maybe because the Thailand gov't has had many years to solve this problem, as have the Cambodian gov't, but neither side is willing to compromise. So to prevent a stupid and unnecessary war breaking out, a mediator (farang) has come along to defuse the situation. I would welcome him there if I were you.

I suggest a peace camp is established there with monks from both countries staying at the temple year round. There should not be any troops withing 50 miles of the place.

Thailand tourist areas is crap,crap,crap....

So is your English grammar. But I suspect your Thai is better than mine!
