  1. If you have time, it's worth resubmitting. I've had a few online rejections that are still approved with exactly the same information after resubmitting. One on the 4th attempt.
  2. The irony is that the police are now preventing redshirts from getting anywhere near Thaksin. They're just wondering when he's going to seek justice for those killed and jailed after he was able to just walk away. https://prachatai.com/journal/2024/03/108434
  3. It didn't come into being until the 1990s with different elements implemented in different years. So you probably didn't lose out on too much.
  4. Is it overlooking the river? 'Not prone to flooding' - but is this going to be affected by the construction of the Luang Prabang dam, which is going to have some serious impact on water flow, water levels etc. Is it in an area that is likely to be attractive to Chinese investors? Or for a Lao government project - in which case it wouldn't matter what's in a contract between you and your friend? But if you're sure everything checks out, why not give it a go? I'm sure you'll be prepared for the situation to change at some point and not regard it as a completely 100% safe option.
  5. Yes, always been instant for me since I added the card. The only difference I can notice between my account and Sheryl's is that I used a UK address with the Thai phone number.
  6. I have no problem with a Kasikorn debit card. That's the only method I currently have to "Add Money" to my Revolut account and it worked yesterday.
  7. Government has already announced the holiday I believe? Private sector, up to them? But a lot of Isan company employees use leave days at Songkran. You'd imagine that the banks in the North East are mostly staffed by Isan employees (not to mention Bangkok). It doesn't seem of much value to keep pushing the idea that the residents of the Isan region are all poor farmers living hand-to-mouth.
  8. It reads like a comedy script. Only behaved like that because I thought they were Chinese. I wouldn't have done it if I'd known they were Thai. At least I didn't threaten to shoot them. I only said I know high-ranking police officers because I was angry. I couldn't apologize because I'm a farang and didn't know what to say in Thai. (To be fair the Chinese thing might have worked if they'd actually been Chinese and he said he was afraid they were going to take a dump on his grass, Thai Internet would probably have been on his side).
  9. Lots of Issanites are employed by in government jobs and will be getting an additional day. Also some of the millions employed in Bangkok will be able to return a little bit earlier. Many even have office jobs in companies (!) and I know a few who have already booked a day or two's leave to get back and join the party even earlier.
  10. His whole manner was extremely abusive. He doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt IMO:
  11. It worked fine for me with a UK address and my Thai mobile number. Confirmation through the Thai number during the signing-up process and subsequent transaction notifications have all gone through very smoothly.
  12. Just ignore it. The 90-day system automatically sends out the reminders from the previous report. It doesn't 'know' that you left the country or that your status has changed. So no action needed on your part.
  13. More likely to be an older animal perhaps, coming out to find easier meals. Oh no, it's a younger animal, so scrap that thought.
  14. Are you in the newer TM30 system? And if you have time, try again. I once got an approval on the 4th submission, with the same details as the first one.
  15. Agreed. And it's good to add the nationality as well. I think all the Americans will be fine with the "Yank scum" titles, and the Scandinavians with the "Scandi scum" headlines. Seems like the way to go.
