  1. Are you born and bred of Thai nationality?
  2. But it is not planned to happen overnight, but over a 5 year period as the economy improves, something that is not happening under the current government.
  3. It is actually 50 baht per person, per day, per year. In addition when people earn more money they tend to have less debt. The government gains, because people have a bit more money to spend so VAT income increases, as does the number of people who pay tax. The people who don't gain are those multi billionaires who have more money than they can ever spend in their lifetimes.
  4. I wish I had a friend like that. ????
  5. Not necessarily. It depends on where you live and where the weather station is situated. The closer you live to the weather station, the more accurate it is. If you don't like the Thai weather forecast try these, and choose your own locality. https://www.wunderground.com/forecast/th/khlong-lan https://www.accuweather.com/en/th/khlong-lan/318424/weather-forecast/318424 https://www.weathercrave.com/weather-forecast-thailand/city-588481/weather-forecast-khlong-lan-patthana-today https://weather.com/en-MT/weather/tenday/l/Khlong+Lan+Kamphaeng+Phet+Thailand?placeId=5e07d1001622e556db0a77e4674333837e7ce3469f89429d8e44c4ccde96c7c4 Please bear in mind that most of these weather stations are virtual and none really have a weather station on the ground. Alternatively you could buy your own weather station and set it up.
  6. At 06:00 this morning out in rural Kamphaeng Phet it was 17.2 C, the coldest it has been for months so far.
  7. It certainly clarifies it for me. You have described what, where and how you did it, and yes it was reasonably simple as both offices are in the same vicinity. Why other people may not believe you, is that for them the Provincial Amphur office and the Provincial Land office may be kms apart.
  8. BBC link for you. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61735603
  9. Just a thought. If you were to go to a country which requires you to wear a mask, would you comply with their rules and regulations and wear a mask?
  10. So out of 70 odd million people in Thailand a huge 3 948 members, 81 online are members. Am I impressed, not in the slightest. You seem to be a foreigner like the majority of posters here and ResistanceTHA does not apply to you anyway.
  11. Believe it. The bigger the institution the more corruption there is, and the easier it is to hide it.
  12. My pc has an ad blocker. He has a mind blocker, so whatever you post in favour of common sense and mask wearing, he will mind block, because he does not agree with it, therefore you, me or anyone else are wrong and stupid. He is already on my ignore list.
  13. I see trucks around that must be 40, 50 up to 60 years old and still giving service. Now the LTAT will expect the new owners to pay the selling price of each EV truck at 5-6 million baht, AND replace the batteries every 6 years or so. To meet that target you can expect the cost of transport to sky rocket, which in turn will raise the cost of living even higher, given how much transport is moved by road. Where will all these truck charging stations be, and how long will it take to recharge the truck batteries? Serious thought and forward planning seems to be missing here.
  14. My wife's family live in Bangkok, some 350 km away from us and we are on good terms with them. The house and land are to go to our son (18 years old now) when she dies.
  15. But she was doing it as the hacker was breaking the law. If she had been tasked with it and the account was in somebody else's name, she would still have done it. The fact that it was her own account must have been a bonus.
  16. HE is quite irrelevant Sandy, and is already on my ignore list.
  17. It is easy to impersonate anyone on Facebook. You can create a new account in anybody's name or you can simply hijack the account which is what happened to me. Only if Facebook notices the account goes against their "Community Rules" with they do anything. What they did to me was suspend the account IN MY NAME and contact details and they say it will be sorted out, usually within 24 hours. If you appeal against it then the account is suspended and after 30 days the account is shut down, OR SO THEY SAY. My account was suspended to me on 30 October this year yet it is still active today. You can appeal to Facebook but you need a Facebook account to talk to them. Catch 22 rules. I could regain my account but to do that I need to know the password that the hijacker is using, I need my email address and my phone number which is suspended to me as it is in use on MY hijacked account. Catch 22 rules.
  18. I have just done a Google search and it seems that the USA is suffering, https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/27/us/coronavirus-hospitals-capacity.html https://www.npr.org/2021/12/19/1065626395/hospitals-are-still-reeling-from-delta-as-omicron-cases-start-to-multiply https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-59960949 The UK seems to be the opposite https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-51768274 It seems to me that, if you want to search for a result that suits you, you can find one. It all depends on your point of view.
  19. Yes it really is, if you take notice what has been posted here in the last few days, what has been posted in the Thai press and what has been posted on the internet.
  20. That 45.09 million baht paid for a couple of pieces of metal plate are the equivalent of 180,360 days or494 years of work at 350 baht per day on a 7 day week.
  21. quote "People like you are the main reason why we have the issues with these totalitarian governments and government-matrix-agents worldwide nowadays." ???? ???? ???? Stupid people similar to you believe that they don't have to wear a mask to visit a bank, and get indignant and upset when they are not allowed to enter the bank without wearing a mask. They believe that it is an affront to their human rights and they demand, in their arrogance to be let in. OTOH smart people put on a mask for the period that they are in the bank. and take it off when they are outside again. I guess that makes you one of the stupid people, that there is no hope for.
  22. It was Trump personally abusing his position as POTUS that made it worse.
  23. I am 78 and feeling my age. Between my neighbours hose and mine are 1 male adult, 3 female adults, 1 male teenager and 2 female teenagers. ALL the teenagers have had Covid despite being vaccinated plus one adult female. Of the 3 remaining adults there is me with 2 Pfizer jabs, my neighbour with 3 Pfizer jabs and my wife with 1 Sinovac jab. None of us has had Covid. None of us take vitamins, None of us are particularly fit. None of us believe it is scaremonger time and it never was.
  24. Why would I have the desire to find out anything about Hunter Biden? I am not a US citizen so nothing about him affects me. AFAIK he was never in any government position and only is of interest to some people because he is the son of the current US President. Whether he took drugs, had porn on "his" laptop, did deals with other countries is a US problem. If he broke US laws let them deal with it. If there is enough evidence to convict him, then so be it. If not then let him alone to live his own life. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Biden
