  1. Sorry, no idea. Is he living in Suratthani province, or Suratthani city? Yes, there is an immigration office and a land transport office (driving licence) in the city. There will be an agent somewhere in the city. Outside of the city...??? His pension will be frozen at the current rate and no increases or extra payments.
  2. Sorry, what is an M & P shop. A search mostly pulled loads of links to H & M. NB I have no trouble getting alcohol any day if I want to. Just curious.
  3. It is a bit better than the one for Thammanat. He was allowed to become a minister because - (extract from BBC report 06/05/21) If 'other state' convictions do not count, why do many tourists/expats have to provide police records in order to obtain a visa.
  4. Did anyone really expect the test results to be anything else? Ask the MFP to have it tested. Will Uncle Tu eat it?
  5. But that already happens all over Thailand with ordinary scooters and motorbikes.
  6. I think that quite a few Aussies, Germans, Czechs, Indians and a few others can give them a run for their money.
  7. So many AI stark reminders that I cannot remember them all.
  8. Depends on your search criteria. If you do not want to find it. you probably won't. Just the first example of many..... Researchers found strong evidence of an association between cannabis use disorder and schizophrenia among men and women, https://nida.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/2023/05/young-men-at-highest-risk-schizophrenia-linked-with-cannabis-use-disorder I suppose that the deniers would ague that if you have schizophrenia then you can both enjoy a toke.
  9. Difficult to say without seeing the lease, but a lease is normally only valid for the people named in that lease. Anyone else has no rights. A problem with long term leases for properties is that if you die, unless your benefactors are named on the lease, then they have no rights. Even if you leave the property to them in your will.
  10. No thanks.
  11. Ask your wife to register as the house owner/manager on line. Or the app is easier so I am told. Then filling in a TM 30 is a two minute exercise. Quicker to do that than to read all of the different comments here.
  12. And that is the problem. It was never meant to be for recreational use. From the lips of Anutin "Thailand just decriminalized cannabis. But you still can’t smoke joints, minister says"
  13. Welcome to Thailand. Hub of mushy films.
  14. Try and educate yourself and google 'is vaping harmful'. Eg https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/what-does-vaping-do-to-your-lungs https://newsroom.heart.org/news/current-evidence-identifies-health-risks-of-e-cigarette-use-long-term-research-needed
  15. Sad but true. Unfortunately, all of this AI garbage and dumb photos encourages clicks and comments. Clicks mean money and I have just contributed.
  16. So the navy boys keep their toys. So what happened about the government saying that they would not pursue the purchase? Buy a frigate instead? The military still runs the country.
  17. Strange. I have had a work permit for more than twenty years. My wife also had one when she was alive. All of my friends that work here also have work permits. Maybe the problem is you?
  18. I guess that you only did the tourist parts of Samui - Chewang/Fisherman's village. Which are the parts that most of us that live here avoid like the plague. Lots of beaches with easy access if you bother to look. Lots of cheaper restaurants outside of the main tourist areas. (Pad krapow moo with a fried egg and rice - 60 baht. BIG portions.) No major air pollution all year round. Just the occasional day or three when you northerners decide to share it with us. Your probably should have avoided high season. Very little traffic these days. You complain about the heat and then talk about "lots of wonderful hot springs". Make your mind up or did you just want to boast? (My pool has been like a hot spring for more then a month.) I have never been to Chiang Rai - too cold, but traffic and pollution in Chiang Mai - give me Samui every day. It did drop to 19 C one winter years ago. Lived on Samui now for 24 years. I would not want to live anywhere else.
  19. If you are thinking about this one, it is a different case. There are obviously too many kids on KPN. https://aseannow.com/topic/1321881-american-woman-arrested-for-allegedly-operating-nursery-without-legal-permission/
  20. and that is why many are tempted to do it. Money for old rope - until you are caught.
  21. Why on earth would a loan shark (illegal) admit to it and 'hand themselves in'.
