I really hope so. I saw a couple of the local crazies yesterday afternoon that were a lot more aggressive than normal, ( both women ), one was carrying a knife in full view. Makes me wonder if there is some sort of bad batch of pills going around.

I thought it was a random attack or have I missed an update ?

Bringing your unique brand of misery and negativity to the countryside.

And therein lies an issue, I'm surprised given where you come from you're abdicating your moral standards for the get out clause that connected age and wealth forgives in this country

For me Jomtien/Pattaya is attractive as a living destination not because of any stand out feature, its strength is in the sum of the parts. Unless you've lived here for some time it would be hard for you to appreciate the total package, as evidenced by the detractors who always focus purely on the sex reputation whilst admitting they've never actually spent any time in the city. " No one likes us, we don't care ".

If their leader " Aero " is wearing his leather waistcoat in this heat I think he'll melt.

Yes but your scenario is not what is being proposed in this case, they are talking about offering only an extra 15 days for tourists. This is short term holiday stay not an avenue to relocate your working or living situation for any meaningful length of time.

I got the impression that global inflation was starting to put the dampners on people's disposable income, seems a bit of a strange time to feel there is a significant demand for longer visas. The average length of stay for Thailand's mass market near neighbours is under 1 week and for the long-haul European markets it is under 3 weeks. I doubt any change will have a material impact, far bigger issues outside of Thailand's control that are likely to affect tourist numbers in the near future.

I've gone through this route, just checking your model of phone it supports OTG so I think the problem may be that your card reader is not OTG compatible. When I had a phone that was Micro USB I bought an OTG hub, from memory around 400 baht, put my non OTG Transcend USB 2.0 card reader into one of the ports and the phone recognised it via the hub. It's easy with my USB C phone now as Transcend have a Type C Card reader that is OTG compatible, no problems.

It might be newsworthy if the Prime Minister could be bothered to make an appearance.
