Thailand Braces for Increased Rainfall as Typhoon Mawar Approaches
marin replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Been saying rain for 2 weeks. Few drops here and there in the Central region. Sick of the heat, 30+ years here and this is the longest heat wave I can recall -
Should we apply to a few schools simultaneously?
marin replied to STD Warehouse's topic in Primary & Secondary Education
Patana is the exception to the rule. The only International school here with more international students than Thai. You do have to test and do well. Plus you need to have some English speaking ability even as a 3 or 6 year old. -

Son with thai and EU passport??
marin replied to beammeup's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
He would need to re-enter on his Thai passport. Simply put he can't exit on a passport he did not enter on. -
Thai with expired passport

My kid was coming for 3 weeks. On a US passport she could arrive Visa exempt. She chose not to do so, but the option was there as offered by the Thai IO. -

Agreed mate. I only posted it up in response to a post saying something quite different above mine. -
Thai with expired passport
marin replied to BenStark's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
She came in on the expired passport. The IO was advising her to use the US to both enter and leave on. She declined. As I said less than a week later she had the new Thai passport. -

marin replied to BenStark's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Hmmm... When my daughter came in September she had a valid US and an expired Thai passport. She told the IO she wanted to enter on the expired passport, they said better on the US as you have to leave on the same passport. She explained her parents were at the airport and the first stop was the passport agency on CW. So entered on the old expired Thai passport and had a new one in 5 days to exit on. She told me "IO said if I enter on one passport and I must exit on the same." Yes it was new but biometrically tied to her old one. -
Where can you find a 5k-per-month condominium in Bangkok?
marin replied to Goodboybkk's topic in Bangkok
We live in different worlds. Bangkapi is a major district of Bangkok. I dont make a distinction of where a foreigner might want to live. But I have been here long enough to have a nice detached house and a car. I never knew Bangkapi had no modern public transportation to it, so thanks for that. -

You dont know Bangkok well do you? A well known district of Bangkok.???? -
How did they sweep Bangkok and win in almost every province in Thailand without that? Why are Taksin and Phua Thai saying they need to modernize their communications to match MF? Just sayin.

He entered 6 months ago.???? His last time to exit is the key. Think about it. -

None of this matters. You did not understand your visa. It had to be used the last time by May 11. So on May 12 it expired. If you had taken advantage of your last entry you as has been said you would have two more months, and then could apply for your 30 day extension for 1900B. Its simple but sad in your case. If you take the time to scroll back and read you have been told this by numerous posters. Nobody is trying to confuse you. Only educate you. Jai yen yen. -

marin replied to sefwrwyju7lo6's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
seems to me it was multiple entry valid for 6 months. If he had left on the 11th he would be fine and gotten the last two month entry. But it expired. My two cents worth anyway. -
Recommendation for colonoscopy/gastroscopy
marin replied to voyagerUSA's topic in Health and Medicine
With insurance covering it I would recommend Dr. Pisit Naprasert at Bangkok hospital. I have had two done by him and both very smooth and easy. Very professional service and excellent English. Good consultation and explanation both before and after the procedure. Very up to date equipment and attentive staff. -

You must have missed the street protests of 2021. Thousands in the streets. More than 1000 young kids arrested and locked up for this since the protests began. Including a number of teenagers who were not yet 18. Because of democracy you have the right to an opposing view something the protesters did not. But dinosaurs will soon see the old guard is in decline and the progressives who want a life better than their parents had are looking to achieve just that. When the ruling elite only gets a quarter of the votes cast while the progressive opposition get the rest its a clear sign its time for a change.
