good for tourism? How so? What tourists give a dam?

Bad for tourist numbers!! What about outlawing corruption, pollution, road toll, poverty, bad education and fake priministers.. All talk.....

Here we go again ! Bringing logic into the discussion.

No they don't.  The embassies want to work less.  It would be easy to show the embassy a SS statement or bank statement.  They don't want to look and write a letter.  It is called civil servants forgetting what the words civil servant means.  

Rubbish ! Embassies aren't for nursemadeing expats. To forge a bank statement or the like isn't difficult these days. To VERIFY an income could be time consuming if not almost impossible in some instances especially with privacy laws & such. Most embassies, if not all, aren't here to hold our hand. If you find yourself in legal trouble the best you can hope for is maybe your embassy might recommend a lawyer. I'm an expat, retired using the income method. I'll be waiting for the official IO ruling before I start to lose any sleep. Way too much knee jerk reaction so far.

"Not to mention the strong baht could get weaker? "  That in itself would be enough reason to vote NO !

I've had major dental work both in Chiang Mai & Sakon Nakhon. Both times female dentists & assistants. Have to say better service & treatment than back in Oz. Not that there was any problem back there. Have to agree with above post !

it depends on the species, but if Aedes, the ones that can give you Dengue fever, then they don't fly more than 100 meters from where they hatched out so you could try to locate the source which could be a stangnant pool very near to you that you could then treat with chemical.

Also moving to a higher floor if in a condo. Mozzies don't fly higher than about 5th or 6th floor.

Could well have been knocked unconscious by a careless jetski rider.

More likely knocked by the jet ski & not the rider methinks.

Yesterday at the Oz Embassy a person in front of me also had a long conversation with the notarizer and I could hear him saying that the Embassy was wrong in denying a Aussie citizen a basic right amongst other points.

How about go to 3 different gold shops and ask the price ?   might be a little more accurate than replies on a forum.    ( am i allowed to suggest that )

 

good luck !

"( am i allowed to suggest that )"   You just did !

Gold in Asia is treated differently to some parts of the world. The Thais, especially, use it for borrowing money and are regularly changing the items and upgrading. TBH, I couldn't care less about workmanship in gold pieces; I'm only interested in its weight and purity. I don't like wearing it outside. Just put it on to shower.

 

I know shinecoin is all the rage in Pattaya, but I prefer gold. Not as fast in earning power; but safer. The PMC ounce is interesting, but I'm buying up gold like there is no tomorrow. Keeping it safe is a worry. Mark - RIP bro' - had so much fear of losing it, that he buried it. Still not been found. I saw the family with their new metal detector out yesterday.

"I don't like wearing it outside. Just put it on to shower."    555555   good man.

Not sure about the video aspect, but you shouldn't have too much trouble finding drones here.

I once got stopped at checkin as I had three carryons. One was a blanket in a plastic bag that absolutely would not fit into any of my luggage. 

 

Anyway, she told me no go. I bent down, tied the platic bag to the carry straps of one of my other carryon, looked at her, and she said off you go. I do wonder how it all actually worked after that incident. I know there is a weight factor, but can you just combine carryons via tape or string? I think you can if it is under the weight and size limits. 

I guess you don't fly much. You never seen the carry on size gauge at 99% of check in counters ?  

If it were me I'd pop on down to the local post office & ask.

I understand several Pattaya & BKK taxi drivers have been fined for Grabbing !
