    It appears Bangladeshis are being shipped in to work in the restaurants, and maybe the Nepalese manning the Viagra and "marital aids" stalls.

    Bank Book was required, as was TM30 (because new passport number?).

    Seems someone has bought the master franchise and set up the Lower Sukhumvit Free Trade Zone.

    The footage from inside the hotel is not nice.

    We're joking about it (myself included) but it was actually very nasty. if the police hadn't intervened I don't know what the outcome would have been.

    The footage on social media taken in the road opposite the subsoi entrance and the interaction at the restaurant further up suggests turf war to me - the Thai side are hardly going to come out and say that.

    Nah, just check all those enrolled for language classes - although turning up during teaching hours might net very few.

    Business competition? i.e. the Phillipinos were performing work reserved for Thai ladyboys.

    CEA is not considered reliable enough for top down public health screening for bowel cancer. It might be worth doing but it should interpreted in context. Two Doctors who treat me have cautioned me that it should be regarded as nothing more than a warning that something is amiss. I was however sent for a CT scan when my CEA went up again after surgery and chemo.

    You are looking forward to providing all that at extension time?

    Leave a pair of womens flip flops outside the door when she goes out.

    I am dying of bowel cancer and wish I had not kept on putting off the colonoscopy. Had one done post surgery, complete nothingburger.

    Acquired the Canadian passports here after entering visa exempt on Chinese passports? To me this looks like an attempt to enter Canada illegally/destroy passports on arrival and claim asylum. Been going on for decades.

    The lines aren't where they expect them to be and so they assume there are no lines or everything can be "handled". The lines are there, just not where you new people expect them, and not everything can be "handled."

    I wave them on as soon as they wind the window down because if they wind the window down it will be a high fare or selective about destination.

    Is this based on your actual experience of filing in Thailand whilst receiving funds from a DTA country?

    With SWIFT tell them to use the message instruction: " remit as currency"to hopefully avoid it being exchanged into THB along the way - e.g. thieving correspondent bank used if your bank does not have a branch here.

    It might be so that if there is a tax treaty you will not be taxed but you may still have to prove that no tax is due, alternatively if they wanted to, the authorities could de facto exempt foreigners by saying their income was covered by tax treaties and therefore no need for needless scrutiny.

    You won't be here then unless you are Chinese. HTH

    So if you are on a new passport they can't locate you within the system? hmmmm........
