  1. actually I like a bit of a robust debate. It's just that pointed tin hat............
  2. have you thought about a career as a ventriloquist ?
  3. ah! the old 3 card trick. (appologies to Maxwell Smart). ????
  4. was it Lou Reed who was supposed to have said 'don't believe anything your plumber tells you and only half of what your mother tells you.' ? 555
  5. I agree, somewhat. How do we learn from history? . The last time we had a decision that affected most of the civilized world, in 1939. Ironically the Soviet invasion of Poland was a ''military operation to save our blood brothers, the Ukranians'' without a formal declaration of war. Sept 1939, the Soviet Union invaded Poland from the east, 16 days after Nazi Germany invaded Poland from the west.
  6. Yep. looks like Dotcam's profile photo was taken in his Mom's basement. I cannot quite make out the newspaper clippings on the wall where it's been reported that Biden is a pedeo. please provide a source, Mr. Dotcam.
  7. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you not naive. Then, you must not have a clear understanding of the difference between (i) tax avoidance (legal) and (ii) tax evasion (illegal). Ref to the various legal cases being pursued against Trump (and his conglomerate). 2 examples of tax evasion are: overstating the value of your property, so that you can claim an excessive deduction for 'depreciation', to reduce your taxable income illegally. The Don is such a buffoon that he signed the check which paid off Stormy Daniel and was charged as legal fees. I miss him ????
  8. yesterday's visit was a pleasure, if you can believe it. New, young, very professional IO. He selected my white background photo. My wife only had a blue background photo, which he accepted without a problem.
  9. if only the Don would pay up the taxes he owes, like the majority of the country, the deficit would not look so bad. Claiming you're extra smart by cheating taxes, should make any GOP'er ashamed to mention the deficit.
  10. You must be missing a brick short of a load, mate, if you think that The Don is relevant, any more..
  11. Thanks all.... I am here in Nakohn Si Thammarat. IO runs hot and cold. ???? Ill go back to the Kodak guy, and get white background.
  12. have to go to IO tomorrow, annual retirement visa extension.. the sole officer can be unco-operative, some years. Must you present photos with a white background. ? last year, he accepted blue background. Photography shop who has done our photos for the past 17 years say ''blue background is acceptable''. thanks
  13. Thanks. I was mistaken - wife & I have non-O. although off-topic, when you get older, it pays to have a good independent agent, who will check out what options you have for deductibles. and, in the case where AXA declined to renew both our accident ins. policies, due to age, he got me into a decent priced alternative policy.
  14. Thanks Joe, Honest to God, I just about had a heart attack. No idea why I did not check my original entry stamp - it is NON-0. sincere appologies for wasting your time.
  15. Joe, Please be patient - as I know that this topic has been flogged to death. I'm on an OA, since 1999. At the age of 81, I cannot get 3 million of Ins. cover. what options do I have.? My wife & I have 800k ins coverage.
  16. First Year Applicant The applicant is-invalid required toast have a valid-feedback health insurance policy, either form Thai or from Overseas insurance companies, which the minimum coverage of 100,000 USD accounting for 3 million baht and it includes the treatment of Covid-19. The insurance certificate is strictly required to be presented to the immigration. For more information about the local health insurance policy for the long stay visa, please visit longstay.tgia.org/companiessoa In case of non-Thai health insurance policy, the insurance certificate form can be downloaded from here, the form must be signed by the authorized person of the insurance company or public organization.

In the case where the accompanying spouse is not eligible to apply for the O-A visa, he or she will be considered for a temporary stay under Category "O" visa. A marriage certificate must be provided as evidence. thanks dude. i'm prepping for our annual OA extension, this week. there is info all over the net...but this is exactly what i needed. that 3 million ins. coverage has always bothered me.
  17. That would make sense - and it should be regulated. then again I must be insane to think that politicians will do anything. btw, I had lpg installed, after i had to buy a new wagon, after Dec. 2004. I get it serviced, regularly, at both Ford and the LPG service centres. I am sure that lpg+petrol combo is the cause of the this horrible fire - but the fuel type is not the cause of the accident leading up to it RIP to all 11 poor souls.
  18. had any experiences, using Ali Express? several items I want to order (vacuum bags) always seem to be out of stock at Lazada.
  19. nobody that I can read, here, refers to the bank's letter of certification of balance. I present that, plus a copy of my savings book, where I keep my 800k. Interest rates are so crappy, that I find it's not worth while to take 400k out and put it back in again.
  20. you refer to 'the letter from the Embassy' -would that be the letter enclosing the old/new passports? if so, i must be careful to keep such letters for each of my wife and I.
  21. Great song, that (Bare Naked Ladies). ????
  22. I renew my 800k deposit annually. With current rates what they were, when I renewed, I'm saving up for a magnifying glass, so as to identify the amount of tax deducted. later this year.. ????
  23. Just bought a new one for my old J7. one of those vendors at Central Surathani. so it is possible to replace. i use him regularly for our phones, screen protectors, etc. he says the battery is genuine and has a 6 mnth warranty. cost 650 baht.
