Oh dear, yet another one comes out of the woodwork..........Conspiracy theorists of the world unite as you possibly have a new "leader".
What on earth makes these people believe in this nonsense??
Some people are just foolish enough to believe their own eyes. Imagine that.

Well, now the perp will have a place to stay for a long time - without having to worry about finding a job.

I don't know what's worse: his overstay, or the fact that he would wear blackface in this day and age.

I'm sure the foreign couple would have preferred to have their daughter use a toilet - had one been available nearby. In any case, do Thais really expect all foreigners to know what will offend them? A foreigner kicking a doctor in the back will get him deported, but a Thai killing a foreign woman with a speeding vehicle while running a red light doesn't elicit any outrage from Thais.

Brilliant. Well done. What AI program did you use? And what prompts did you use, if I may ask?

Two cases of engine failure in one day, Boeing?
Yes, but you'd better not say anything about it. The last two people who blew the whistle on Boeing got whacked.

It rained all day yesterday in my part of Bangkok - out on Srinakarin Road. But today, not a drop.

My understanding is that the online 90-day reporting has to be done 15 days before the due date. So doing it a week before the due date won't work.

Everybody looks so happy there. I'm moving to North Korea.

I spent five weeks in Dalat, Vietnam, during this past March and April. While I was there, I saw a modern-looking eye hospital, so I stopped by to get my eyes checked for cataracts. The eye test cost me the equivalent of 220 baht, and the result was that I don't need cataract surgery just yet. However, the doctor said I should continue testing myself every year because I will eventually need the surgery.
So I took the opportunity to enquire about the cost of the cataract surgery there, and it ranged from about $1,000 per eye up to $2,000 per eye for the newest, fanciest lenses. The doctor told me that he does cataract surgeries every day, so I would feel comfortable having the surgery done there when my time comes. This is the website of the hospital:
And here is the price list, which I photographed when I was there. Everything is in Vietnamese, but you can see the names of each kind of lens in English - and research them based on that. Right now there are about 25,000 Vietnamese dong to the US dollar.

Yes, you can use Grab from the airport. I did it about a month ago and it cost me the equivalent of about five US dollars to get from the airport to the center of the city. Otherwise there are (cheap) buses from the airport to the city, which is an option if you are staying somewhere where the buses pass. Speaking of buses, there is a fantastic app for buses in Saigon called "Bus Map". It tells you the routes, which buses stop at the bus stops near you, when the next bus will arrive, etc. But Grab is both good and cheap. Once you settle in to your hotel and you don't have a lot of luggage to carry around, you might consider using the Grab motorbikes, which are also plentiful and very cheap.

It almost seems like it's just about getting more money from foreigners rather than pursuing any kind of strategy.

This is the obvious question, but we won't get an official answer - because the answer is also obvious.

Prominent figures like David Axelrod and Ezra Klein have voiced concerns about Biden's ability to lead effectively, prompting discussions about the need for a potential replacement.
The fact that it's a couple of Jews who get to decide whether Biden runs again or not tells you all you need to know about who controls American politics.

Do you know how many scurrilous villains are entering
this country without visas or criminals checks ? If you are not doing anything illegal what could be wrong with a purvey of your messages, contacts and photos?
If I were a dictator, you're exactly the kind of person I would want to have as my subjects: people who believe that they have no rights - and don't deserve them either.

Just now, it is what it is said:no it's not, it's immigration and customs doing their job. how often to people on AN complain about authorities inaction? i wish they'd search more people, more than happy form them to search me.
It's one thing to search a person's bags for contraband such as drugs and weapons, etc., (which I agree they have the right to do). It's an altogether different matter to search their phones (and computers) for whatever it is they are looking for there.

1 minute ago, Mika78 said:If they searched my WhatsApp they only found work chats, with my family and with some ladies scattered here and there in Thailand. The same if they searched in the application called Line. If they looked at the gallery they will have found some photos taken during some short time, but nothing illegal and a lot of families photos. OThey checked the phone and gave it back to me without asking me anything.
Still, all of that stuff is none of their business. The right to privacy is a fundamental human right.

YOU might think that you have nothing to hide. But it all depends on what they are looking for. In any case, this is a gross violation of privacy. It is unacceptable.

I use cash for 90% of my transactions - deliberately. The only things I pay by bank transfer are my rent, my internet, and my electricity bill - for MY convenience. I don't object to cashless payments being an option - as long as I get to choose how to make the payment. The obvious intention, though, is to woo us with the convenience of digital payments, then to switch to digital payments being the only option. At that point, we are slaves - because if you are a dissenter, the government can just switch off your ability to use your own money. China is already an example of that. And don't think that every other government in the world would not love to do the same thing.

I just got that SMS for the first time a couple of days ago. I'm pretty sure that clicking on the link would not lead to anything good, so I deleted the message without clicking on the link.
