This means nearly everywhere will be closed at the normal time, doesn't it?

If other exchanges can do it then so can Bitkub - so far they have chosen not to do it.

Admirable work. I don't use Bitkub as I heard there were many issues with verification. But I do occasionally use UpBit Thailand and I am fully verified there, it's a Korean exchange which operates in various South East Asian countries, including Thailand. I received an email from them over the weekend about this new enhanced verification requirement and they specifically stated that foreigners can do this 'DIP Chip' thing using a modern day passport which contains whatever chip it is that is used - presumably it's the NFC 'chip' in the passports. I have until some time in December to complete this. Based on what UpBit have said it appears that there is a way to process foreigners ID confirmation with some app and their passports and it's done at 7/11 in a similar manner to how a Thai would do it using their national ID card at 7/11. I haven't done it yet though, but they say it is possible. They also mentioned that if it doesn't work, which I guess is possible for some passports then there are other documents that can be uploaded to complete the verification process - the webpage didn't list what these documents are.

Yes, the whole thing is hilarious - it's almost like there's a bunch of inexperienced idiots running the show

They smoke it? As it was tablets I have been working on the assumption that they just swallow them, like all other tablets?

All of these things happene every time I get in my car, apart from bad weather. I will never purchase a vehicle with anything like this, I'll do it the old fashioned way for the foreseeable future. Only when these automated systems are several hundred times better than a human controlled vehicle will I consider one - I'm sure that day will come but it's just not time yet. Having said that I have no idea if it had anything to do with this accident, it's just that whenever I go out on the roads I'm surrounded by complete idiots who make seemingly random moved all the time, any quick breaking reaction by my vehicle would result in the tailgater behind me crashing into me - and there's nearly always someone driving just a few feet behind swerving from lane to lane to get slightly ahead, even on a busy road with a red stop light in view 🙄

As Prime Minister he is literally a puppet by definition. One wrong word and the delicate and fragile coalition will split which will result in the puppet masters (the parties) kicking his ass out - he will find out. This guy seems to be on a crusade, first with has deluded tax reforms, knee jerk banning of all firearms via Anutin. He won't be PM for long. I'll give him a few more months at most - whenever Taksin gets out of hospital prison - that's when he will hear the clock ticking, it's already ticking now of course but he just doesn't realise it.

So it's quite possible there could have been 'auto drive' features in play here? I am not familiar with this car make/model at all.

They always checked before, every time I've had an overstay going back decades (before they decided to make a big deal out of it) they knew at the checking desk. I know this as I've had several overstays in the past.

From the above Nation link : I guess they've decided to completely disarm the country. "He said he would not allow ordinary people to get a permit to own a firearm" No guns for the peasants...got it.

Yes, has Phuket airport gone rogue? If on overstay maybe best to make your way to Bangkok They're definitely missing their flights.

Odd pattern emerging here, if you get to the airport you can leave. The check in desk know you're on overstay the moment they see your passport. What happens next? Do the police still pay rewards for reporting overstayers?

How many of these things does the average 'addict' take each day?

Here in Hua Hin we have to make do with the karaoke area which seems to close sometime around 7 or 8 in the morning. I was told by someone that they close at that time because it backs onto some commercial premesis that opens early 🤣

So BB guns and toy guns (blank firing) are illegal?

The state pension doesn't even come into this. A million or so goes a long way in retirement. It's kind of unfortunate that these people will be taxed to death from next year - because all that money they're bringing is not from state pensions, it will be from investment income, sale of property, etc - all of which they apparently plan to tax.

She worked as an au pair when she was a kid and now she's an ambassador - that's the strangest cover story I've ever read. I wonder what she did to become elevated into the corridors of power in Sweden and the various embassies she's worked at around the world?

Why is the Prime Minister / Finance Minister even involved with such a decision? Is he micro managing everything that happens in all branches of government?

Around these parts we usually get about 2 weeks of cooler weather before it turns around and starts rising again. That's been my experience over the last 15 or so years anyway

Six months. I'll give it six months before he's out on his arse.

They most certainly do, remind me - what time does the big 'full moon party' on that crappy island close at?

I read the other day that the god like masters who reside in Bangkok already announced the 'trial' won't be happening in Pattaya. That's the end of it. The masters in Bangkok have spoken now get back to work and shut the <deleted> up.

Telling someone they are wrong isn't an insult. If he attacked a younger man he would likely have had the crap beaten out of him.

Many such videos were online in the days after it happened, including this one. They were already out there.

Half the world has seen that video as it was all over Twitter / X
