  1. So far today: UK 1, Russia 0
  2. As an aside, I must say Aseannow's marketing seems to be doing very well, there seem to be no end of new posters.................
  3. This is your function, to provide for this. She may well fulfill he half of the bargain, but this is the driver.
  4. Come on now, no jokes.
  5. You need insurance for long therm debilitation but that seems to be something that isn't covered or won't be paid out on.
  6. I saw a very funny sight at L section 2 years ago. The numbers stopped being called out and a bus load of people who looked like Chinese entered the L section with just passport and an application form as far as I could see, and left within minutes with a receipt in their hands. TR section extension where that is just feasible is 'round the corner.Things subsequently tightened up with long standing agents having problems so perhaps things got a bit much. It seems work regulations are being waived in the 'Lower Sukhumvit Free Trade Zone', although I suppose the 4 Thais per foreigner are back in a Lawyers office, but I am surprised waiters are paid the minimum Bt40,000 salary required which I thought was required with a few exceptions. Whether ASEAN is also an exception I don't know, but Bangladesh seems not to be listed as a member.
  7. Not sure now the Soi 7 Biergarten is closed. You could also meet women in their 50's there (bless them).
  8. Chill. They will control them with new, stiffer requirements for retirement extensions.
  9. Both fire doors on my floor jammed open with cardboard wedges (again). Was alerted to the need to check by door slamming at 3 am. Why are they using the fire escape, who are they, do we have their passport details at reception?. Time to clear these people out.
  10. Lots of people on here seem keen to use the instruments of state to achieve political goals - specifically eliminating any opposition. So you are fine with fascism so long as it is in pursuit of your goals?
  11. How things have changed. Years ago there were people who had been here for years on back to back TR visas from Penang.
  12. How's it going with the preferred tourist groups of Russians/Indians and Chinese, Thailand?
  13. Discovery of a chopper where one wasn't expected maybe.
  14. Xi is "Number One Big Fella"
  15. Yes, but filing with just a lease and no housebook, housebook for where owner resides, and owner bat preseason is not possible at all offices. You need documentation from the owner CW will apparently let you file with lease and apparently receipts for utility bills paid.
  16. Translation: You Landlord is not declaring the rental income to the Revenue Department. Making us dependent on a TM30 filed by someone else to extend a visa was a very "provincial" thing to do. Meanwhile people fly in and stay in an Airbnb with no TM30 filed with a material number committing crimes or going onto overstay. Isn't that where they should be focussing or does that come under too hard/too hot?
  17. My wealthy US friend who is their target market now will only come for 30 days as he has had enough of the nonsense they subject him to when applying for a simple 60 day tourist visa (Yes. Kazakhstan and Russia get 90 days on arrival). Seriously Thailand i think you may find the Teflon has worn through on this one - maybe Srettha will get the one finger salute when he greets the "new" priority tourists at the airport.
  18. In so doing she besmirched the good name of Thailand.
  19. Basically those perceived as useful to Thailand.
  20. Philippines had similar but have rescinded it - seems too may Triads sought to "retire" there.
  21. It seems they can do anything they want without an act of Parliament. If the don't, it is because they don't want.
