Unlikely to be just the one leader with Covid-19. "Superspreaders" comes to mind.

Yellow Book issues - Wang Noi District Office
rbkk replied to robwood12's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Wrong. There are actually 4 tiers. None of them mention anything about a yellow book or pink card. They are: 1. a Thai person, 2. A farang from neighbouring country, 3. A farang working on a Non Im B, and 4. a farang tourist or expat. Sorry to read you got out of bed this morning on the wrong side! I used my Yellow book to register (easily) and receive treatment (ongoing clinic +free Covid-19 vaccines x4) at my local hospital. I have never had a Non Imm B visa. I do have a Non Imm O which allows you to work if you chose (Group 3). Group 4 is for retirees not expats, you sir are wrong. Taken from your link..... "The fourth group consists of tourists and retirees." https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/dual-pricing-foreigners-legal-thai-public-hospitals/ -
Yellow Book issues - Wang Noi District Office

The Yellow book contains your Thai ID No. This is what makes it useful. An example of mine from experience was a stay in the local hospital. When it was bill time I was not charged the full foreigner price but was charged on a lower pricing tier. (I think there are 5 different pricing tiers.) -
Thai schools are rotten to the core. If they were to travel to the adjoining provence there is a high school there that employs African teachers who are paid 18,000 baht/month but their school contracts state 28,000 baht/month. The budget lady of the school is syphoning from each of the 5 African teachers 10,000 baht/month = 50,000b/mth. It's been going on for at least 10 years.....

PayPal no longer available to foreigners in Thailand

Not for the banks approval criteria. Only Thai nationals allowed. This is all about money laundering (Thai Govt. new rules) and is also the reason for the Cash Machine Deposit new rules. -

Money rules in Thailand so my bet, sadly, is on the Chinese Triads to win. -

Thong Lo Police Station 555555555555555. It's certainly made it to 'Hub' status. -
Tax reductions of 80% on electric vehicles to reduce pollution
rbkk replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I've read on here people preaching about the benefits of MG electric vehicles and that they have free charging stations. Well at the MG showroom on Highway 24 they didn't get the memo from head office. At night it is in complete darkness and no charging station. They cannot even illuminate their own company name to the hundreds of passing vehicles. Why buy an electric vehicle anywhere but in a city with power sources? -

Israeli man arrested at Phuket Airport with 55 firearm bullets
rbkk replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
So the odds are that these rounds were aquired in Phuket? Best to just ask the criminal organisations. Easy to spot them by their uniforms. -

".....they are commonly issued to new vehicles for use during the eight weeks or so that it takes for new plates to be issued. Trade plates carry a significant number of restrictions. Drivers with red plates must seek permission from authorities if they want to use the vehicle at night. Cars with red plates cannot be driven out of the province where the vehicle was registered at purchase. Drivers must ask for permission each time they want to travel outside the specified area. Documents must be in order, with the destination and the dates of travel. Red-plated cars are not allowed to use expressways. Drivers of cars with red plates must have all car-related documents, a proper driving licence, and ID card ready for checks at all times. Police officers are authorized to stop any car with a red plate to examine the car and the driver's documents even if no traffic offence has occurred." "As of July 2015, DLT has a plan to stop the use of trade plate as temporary license plates, and use a quicker car registration process." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_registration_plates_of_Thailand I guess things move slowly at the DLT Thailand!
