And still he digs the hole deeper.

From the Thaiger That is not nice.

Fixed it for you.

Sorry. Not a duck lover. 🫢

Ask Hamas. They also cut their heads off.

The guy that decides enough is enough. Hamas break the existing ceasefire every day. Over a thousand rockets falling on civilians. Then the animals decide to 'invade' Israel and kill babies, children and women. Perhaps throw your 'criminal' insults at those animals. Hamas are the legal group in charge of Gaza. Voted in by the people of Gaza. What is the point of yet another meaningless ceasefire when Hamas ignore it daily?

My middle finger was bitten off by my dog at the first joint. It was a long time ago. I was flown to Bangkok and it was re-attached at Bangkok Hospital, Bangkok by a doctor who specialised in re-attaching penis's. Nice Japanese microsurgeon. Mine was his first finger re-attachment. He filmed the op and follow up. I would lend my dog to you to bite your finger off but he died some 20 years ago.

The two emojis that I would vote for are a WTF (?) emoji and a thumbs down one 👎. I cannot believe what some folk post. 🫣

You were lucky. I have an account with SCB and I wanted to open a new fixed deposit account. I showed my passport, driving licence, work permit and house book. "Must have proof of address form from immigration" I explained that immigration here on Samui do not do this any more. I showed them that my address was on the driving licence, work permit and house book. "Must have proof of address form from immigration". Goodbye SCB. I then transferred most of my money to Krungsri.

OK. So that is all of the previous government and most of the current one. Next?

On the Thaiger main page at the moment, there are 8 stories of Thais behaving badly and 2 stories of foreigners behaving badly. And the Thaiger is aimed at foreigners/English speakers.

Same as nikmar Ugly as sin from day 1 and stayed that way for 72 years and counting. I was so ugly as a baby that my mother later told me 'I had to love you as no one else would'. Luckily I have other assets that women seem to find attractive. Never short of a girlfriend or three. (A bit awkward at times.) On the other hand, my wife was gorgeous from the day that I met her when she was 21. I stole her from another bloke and travelled the world with her. She was gorgeous until the day that she died (55). I still love her today.😍

For goodness sake. That is a very 'myopic' view on things. Not many Thais read AseanNow. It is aimed at foreigners. ie people like you and me. Try reading the Thai press (and even a fair number of threads on AseanNow). I think that you will find more than one or two articles about Thais behaving badly. Usually killing each other.

Perhaps it is those noisy bars, with scantily dressed ladies and drunks that the devout Buddhists find upsetting on one of their more devout days?

Here on Samui, immigration accept the screenshot. The only form in my passport is the TM 90.

Where is the 'sick' emoji when one needs it?

Like father, like son-in-law perhaps?

PM2.5 - 4µg/m³. All good here on Koh Samui. 👍 Just avoid Bangkok. https://www.iqair.com/thailand/surat-thani/ko-samui

From what I have seen, most bank loans use the land as collateral.

That last question is the million dollar one. Here on Samui, the TM 30 is accepted by most as proof of address - except the banks. Banks still demand the old form that the immigration office refuse to produce. I had to have a replacement licence some years back when I lost my wallet. All I needed was copy of the licence and my passport. The passport number was different (new passport) and they just changed it. Simple. As always in Thailand, different government offices might have different procedures.

I tend to only drink single malt whisky - very occasionally. Usually Glenmorangie in its various forms. The subtleties of most others costing 4,000+ baht are totally wasted on my 'Thai spices' palette. I once bought a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue Label whist on a visa run to Burma. Looked like the real thing except the price of 160 baht gave it away. Not a bad taste for a rice whiskey. Good enough for the boys in my local pub to sell it as the real thing. (They did tell the customers before they drank it though.) Some Japanese whiskies are good and I want to try some of the newer Australian ones. I have never seen them in the shops here on Samui and lots of places do have a wide range of foreign brands. Each to their own of course.

What farang income tax? I know of the proposed one starting next year for everyone but a farang income tax?
