ive been there numerous times to study massage over a number of years, its ok if your with a group of friends partying but most tourists go there for a week after BKK to apparently chill out before going to the islands. After 7 years living in Thailand my assessment is, its the same as everywhere else unless your a tourist, sure pai is 3 odd hours outside but even thats the same as lots of other places. Coffee shops, grapow, its the same. If your a tourist or want to study its great but as a place to live it would get as old as fast as anywhere else

Ok ill do that thanks. My wife said the same just hoping there was a solution that would work at my desk

Hi I just bought a new annual sim card after my last one expired (you need to register one yourselves these days and this can be tricky as your talking to the seller in thai on lazada) My specific problem appears to be verification I scanned my passport and face successfully but then it wants an address. What address is the question? All attempts to enter my address have failed. Does anyone have any idea on this? what address do they actually want? mine hasnt changed in years ?

No as I said they keep the contract vague about details such as that. They do pay 1000 baht a day for 8 hrs on a Saturday but I don't do that in common with most non Asian staff. We get nobbled two days a year for Saturdays normally a seminar that's completely in Thai or some competition, I was actually looking for a clause that said we are hired to teach school students not teaching staff in the ministry of educations regulations.

Ok, so our school has now instigated with no notice btw a English language course for our Thai colleagues from A0 all the way to B2 (cefr levels) for 12 hours. Is it legal under the laws of the kurusapha to make foreign teachers teach their colleagues? There is nothing in the contract about it ( but that has lots of latitude anyway it's been getting more vague for years) I spoke to labour who said it was the under the kurusaphas control. Anyway do we have to do it or can we say no. Does anyone have any info from the kurusapha's laws for foreign teachers on the subject? My investigation is ongoing but I could use some help .thank you. Needless to say three teachers were let go last year and their workload transferred to others so some people are v busy now so this is adding to it all.

Hi my wife is going out to get a non B visa, she doesnt get back into Thailand until 6pm that day after collecting it. What is grace period before you have to report in as shes heard out immigration are fining people if they can't get back the same day. Can you confirm theres an official grace period and what it is? When I search the internet it keeps mentioning 90 days which isnt what I want? It also says landlords have 24 hrs to report a new resident but this also isnt what I want, Its someone returning who wants to go and confirm their address, Recently a colleague of mine for fined 800 baht for forgetting to go back but im not sure the grace period. If anyone has an official document weblink I can give to someone if they disagree with the period of grace that would be great thanks everyone

Hi ive been offered a job in Vietnam, the only problem is my wife has two guinea pigs, all the importing pets articles are all talking about cats and dogs and vaccination certificates. I know its a long shot but does anyone know the regulations for taking small creatures into vietnam (ones that dont have rabies) guinea pigs are classed as exotic animals in Thailand where I am at the moment thanks, I presume you need some sort of import licence or something, but not sure how they could be considered dangerous. Im considering travelling overland through laos into vietnam as its safer for them
