What century are you living in? It is simply unacceptable in this day and age to expect an eight month pregnant woman to work. Her well-being, and the well-being of her unborn child, is much more important.

Received an email from SCB at the weekend informing me that effective 14th July they are doing away with Easy Net and I have to turn to the phone app. If this is a sign of the things to come, I'd much rather just go to a branch and do my banking there.

Have decided to take 50% Monthong (most commonly avail) and 50% Gaan Yao (one of the more expensive cultivars).

What pronoun do you "identify" as?

Where is this? Just asking for a friend ????

Brilliant!

I don't mean to be disrespectful, but if the student can't afford the books/doesn't want to pay for them, how is he/she going to pay for (1) an IELTS tutor/course and (2) the test (a few thousand Baht)? Unless the student in question has a very good grasp of the language, he/she should definitely enroll on an IELTS course or take a private IELTS tutor. Studying alone is not the best course of action for people who are weak in English. Time with a tutor, private or group, is the best way to learn the techniques and strategies to help candidates improve their band score. While our esteemed fellow ASEANNOW member Plern might disagree with the last suggestion, I assure you there are many good, experienced and passionate tutors out there helping thousands of students to improve their band scores. They must be doing something right! Just found out this evening that my private IELTS student achieved band 7.0 in both speaking and writing. Band 7.5 overall. Not bad for a "degrre-less, sketchy af farang" [sic]

While I do feel sorry for these two women, I have to ask: What were you thinking?!?! 100k-150k to work as a maid in a developing country?!?!? Seriously? I've been saying this for years: people should have to take an IQ test before being issued a passport.

We want to plant both durian and lychee fruit trees on our land, probably about 50 or 60 trees in total. I was wondering which durian cultivar is the most sought after durian?

That's why some of us leave the lights off ????

Make this guy PM.

The time he spent plotting and carrying out his "revenge", is time he could have used to meet another woman and get on with his life. What a loser.

Those salarymen that you so despise had a skill set that allowed them to earn a living without having to make fools of themselves just to "entertain" millions of brain dead viewers.

While I can't stand Nate, or most other YTers for that matter, I am starting to admire them for being able to make money from posting s*it. I'm seriously thinking of uploading videos of, well, nothing really in the hope that I too can make some easy money. So fellow ASEAN now members, please support me if you see stupid, meaningless videos of djayz on YT, and don't forget to hit the subscribe bell ????

Some more cultural events would be a welcomed change to the endless temples, street markets, street food, beaches, elephant rides, etc. constantly advertised as the "amazing Thailand".

Wonder how many of the ASEAN Now members from the LGBTQ parade are looking at visa options for Ecuador and Cameroon right now? ????

Thank you FriendlyFarang. So, this TM30 then means I'm permanently living there and I do all my 90 day reporting in Korat too?

After years of travelling back and forth between BKK and Korat, I'm now ready to settle there full-time and this coming week I want to officially register as living at my partner's house in her village in Korat. What is the process? Do I go to immigration in Korat and register there as living with her or do I first need to inform immigration at Chang Wattana that I'm moving to Korat? What documents do I need and what documents does she have to show? I have had dealings with the officers in the Korat immigration branch in the past and, although they have always been very friendly and helpful, I'd still like to be prepared. Thanks in advance for any advice you can proffer.

The very fact you responded like this tells me you know I'm right.

Maybe the parents should put down theirs phones and ignore their TikToks, FB, YM, IG accounts for half an hour every morning and prepare a healthy packed lunch for their kids instead of being so outraged

What else do you want?

I don't think I know him well enough to ask him what they are. Time will tell I suppose.

The village doctor recently bought the land adjacent to our plot. He had some work done on it, for example a pond dug out, trees dug up, etc. A few days ago I noticed cement rings on his land and I assumed he had had a well dug, but upon closer inspection I see the rings are full of cement and have a metal bar which is easily 5m high with some kind of lid on top (see photos). What is this? I've never seen anything like it before.

I'm pretty sure the guy operating the digger/excavator will know how deep to dig.

I assume this is rhetorical.
