  1. Your next stop is back to immigration to attempt to get them to do their job.
  2. I don't know but I know they all fired a large percentage of their workforce. They didn't do that because people are using facebook less, or did they?
  3. Advertising is down across the board, if you somehow think this is driven by petty squabbles about Elon Musk outside of a couple of activist companies then you are deluded. What decisions?
  4. Yes, I use BUPA Global, just get in touch with them directly. When I first took out my policy with them before they renamed from 'BUPA International' some 12 or 3 years ago I phoned them in the UK to arrange cover. They also accept monthly payment by credit/debit card so you don't have to stump up the whole years worth of payment in one go and I don't believe they charge extra for that.
  5. Just try and stop another country from issuing a passport to a Thai citizen - they will only care about their law, Thai law doesn't come into it so they can have as many passports as they want. What are they going to do about it?
  6. Yes, they do. That's exactly how unjust and unenforced old laws get changed / removed.
  7. You have to ask the question - were all the Thais arrested or just given a ticket which would be the usual procedure? Special harsh rules for foreigners.....
  8. Indeed, contrary to popular belief some visas take a huge amount of time to obtain based on what I've heard. The more backward and third world the country the longer the process....
  9. For their own citizens maybe but it's pretty much unenforcable.
  10. I would avoid bus stations.
  11. He (President Biden) might as well provide the missiles himself if he did that - there's a reason he's not doing that - they won't get involved to that level. Nothing of the sort will happen.
  12. Get a taxi, then there will be an almost zero chance of being stopped.
  13. You can never give enough to Ukraine no matter how much you give, only this week he was in various European countries begging for fighter jets. What's next? He's already demanded that the exact conditions for a large scale war between multiple countries be enacted to save his corrupt country - the so called 'no fly zone'. At some point you have to say no and be done with it - then you get added onto a 'kill list'. Best to stay uninvolved and give them nothing. Elon Musk doesn't want to provide what amounts to missile guidance systems for their drones - that would be something for the US Government to do - but they won't, will they - have to ask - why is that and why should Elon Musk do it?
  14. Wrong, I think. Accident cover likely has little to do with licensing but that would be down to the policy. Remember we're not talking about vehicle insurance here - that would require a valid license.
  15. Did she get her money back yet? If not then I would like to know why and who stole it
  16. Inheritance planning? That's the only thing I can think of apart from someone who was seriously paranoid on the Yabba/Ice. Wiping out families for inheritance gains is as old as the hills.
  17. As someone helpfully pointed out - they did in fact pay, there are policies that pay regardless of licenses. I guess she had one. Good on her.
  18. I'm pretty sure she wasn't wearing a full helmet here if the huge cut on the face probably wouldn't have happened. No motorcycle license likely no insurance, unless she has a policy like mine - which she obviously doesn't.
  19. This whole thing stinks, like they're attempting to prevent viable politicians from returning.
  20. You know quite a while back you had to fill out a customs declaration prior to landing and it demanded that expensive items like laptops were declared. I don't think you need to fill that same form out but they definitely were interested in 'high value' items carried by tourists which most likely would have in fact been relatively cheap laptops costing 50 to 100k Baht equivalent. I was surprised to learn that many countries want VAT / DUTY payments to drive across the border in foreign vehicles, temporary import paperwork and all sorts of shenanigans. Greedy furcks every one of them
