Thailand is walking a very fine line and could drop off it if not careful. In bed with Putin. Supporting the illegal Burmese military and bowing to Xi who is saying that Israel must not invade Gaze (but it is OK for Russia to invade Ukraine).

Same same. Pay compensation - case over.

Always has been. Pay to stay open illegally or pay to open legally. Up to you.

I have always used the NatWest online banking and I receive OTP's, messages etc fine on my Thai number. I am registered with them as living in Thailand.

Damn. Looks like is might be all Southern Hemisphere semi and final matches. Again. Come on England. Come on France.

Forms and advice here. (I have just used those docs.)

I think that is it is more a political decision - big uncle Xi? From what I read, most EV's in Thailand are Chinese and they are building factories/assembly plants for them.

Yesterday, I saw a young girl, walking backwards up the down escalator. What could possibly go wrong.

Does anyone actually believe what he says?

Blue Tabian Baan is OK as well. All of the villas that we register are on blue ones. I think that the 'new' rules are because immigration now have a centralised database and a single method of capturing the information (for the on line users). Before, each office would register on a local system. (Samui was 'the hotel TM 30 system'.)

Yes.

Most villas on Koh Samui are advertised on AirBnb. Most villas rent out by the day with deals for weeks or months. Many have a 'hotel' licence . 'Legal' or not, no idea but the government/TAT know about it. AirBnb is a commonly used platform in the major tourist areas. (I use it when booking weekend breaks.)

And then I have always have had to pay a deposit on or before check in. Usually 80%.

Not easy to slit someone's throat if one cannot walk.

Confirmed in the Thaiger article

Or maybe their home in Gaza has been bombed?

And if Israel do that, they will loose. It is always the way when fighting extremists. The 'good' guys follow the rules, the 'bad' guys don't give a frock.

Not in Tie Land ???? Sorry. I will close the door as I leave.

Of course Putin will ally to Palestine. That will distract from his illegal invasion of Ukraine. The more money and weapons going to support Israel will mean less money and weapons for Ukraine.

The PBS article is quite good but I wonder how true their observations are. eg Do we really believe that the military are not in control? The military appointed senators changed the election outcome against the will of the majority and they are still in place. There are quite a few 'military' still pulling strings.

We use these - they use less electricity. https://www.homepro.co.th/p/181691 Refill with these https://www.homepro.co.th/p/181688

There is zero justification for these terrorists to go wilfully, gleefully and knowingly into civilian areas and murdering innocent men, women and children.

No surprises here. October/November have always been low season. This means less tourists. ????
