Perhaps if the country was given a none preordained and free general election with no coercion, then maybe they could allow the winning party to choose their own Prime Minister.
Its never likely to happen, but I guess I can dream.

On my one and only visit to a government hospital, I presented my Thai pink ID. It was not refused but my passport was also required. The private room @ B1300 per night for 2 nights was about a quarter of the total price. The operation and ancillaries making up the remainder. This was KK General about 4 years ago and I have to say the service was first class. If needed again, I would certainly make it my first port of call.

I think the OP is aptly named, and looking for trouble where there is none and getting people stirred up. Sticking his nose into other peoples business is a dangerous game.
I personally use an agent for the hassle free service they provide, and it is worth ever last Baht I pay.
Whether I have the required money in the bank or not, is nobodies business but mine.
Butt out Mr, whoever you are and stop stirring muck.

So I get 12 points on the motorcycle licence, and another 12 points on the car licence?

The OP is using money in bank method for retirement purposes.
Hence the reference to 800k.
It is not possible to do as you suggest.
Dr Jack. May I point out, 12 monthly transfers can be used to obtain an extension of stay. If the OP wishes to hold a static amount in a bank that is entirely his prerogative. And I might add, there are alternatives.

What is you basis of such a strange post.
I use money in bank method and have a Will to pass that to Thai partner.
Don't post such throw away lines without basic facts.
Not hard to find, but I suggest you have a quiet word with an honest bank manage.
The police have to informed of a foreigners death, and we all trust the Thai police, don't we!
I don't keep more than one months living expenses in a Thai bank for this very reason.

when no one takes up this wonderful offer, perhaps they will think all foreigners are stupid, or possibly their perception of us all rolling in money is not true????

I have had similar problems over the past couple of months, the sign in always directed me to confirm my details via email or SMS. No response from either which can be very frustrating.
I found the Lazada phone number and got hing put right. However, I have had to phone them since, but they are very helpful.
This is the Lazada number 02 018 0000

An ignorant post! I was riding a motorcycle at 79 yrs old. If one feels confident enough at whatever age, its down to the individual. What I read of the details, it wan not the riders fault

Like many other things regarding this government, mayhem from start to finish.
They start with good intentions, but such is the system it all gets blown out the window.
They really couldn't organise a visit to the toilet for someone with diarrhoea if they were stood outside the toilet.

I am just going to throw this idea out there, and just maybe some school directors, and teachers will take up the challenge.........Now I know, after more than 25 years here, that I am being just a tiny bit optimistic, but would it not be a good idea for the teaching staff to take turns to monitor the crossings in the mornings and afternoons. I realise that a lollipop lady such as we have in England would have a shorter life span than a Kamikaze pilot, but surely a teacher wearing a hi vis jacket could have some success.....................
I have seen police on some of these crossings outside schools mornings and evenings, but still motorbikes and some cars take no notice of the police direction. What hope is there of change when the whole attitude of drivers is 'Me first'?

You are wrong...
When you renew your passport from within Thailand you do not send off your passport.
Your passport remains with you.
When you collect your new passport the corner of your old passport is clipped off.
I was referencing sending a PP OUT of Thailand. NOT renewing within Thailand. Is that CLEAR for you?

Oh smack handy Tom, naughty boy.
I was passing on my experience, that was then clarified by Ubon Joe, which I acknowledged. I still maintain that if applying online you need to send your old passport to London before they issue a new one, they then return old and new passport to your UK address. The online instructions are very clear on this point.
Happy now?
By sending you PP out of the country, if you are in Thailand, I believe you are committing an offence. Correct me if I'm wrong!

Quicker way is to fly back to UK and find a passport office where you can get a quick appointment, only viable if desperate
I see you keep up to date very well......and obviously have money to burn.

Hope the EU puts up some sanctions if they do. First you agree to something and later you want to rip it up. Definition of untrustworthy. I hope the EU hits back hard if they do so.
Besides if the Irish want to unite and leave the EU its their choice.
The EU forced the issue at the time of signing the agreement. Johnson agreed just to get the deal done. Unfortunately, neither side realised the problems that were about to be unleashed and the EU will now not give ground, although workable options have been put forward. It all about punishing the UK for leaving what is plainly a dictatorship.

Placing trash bags and bins around whatever area means that said trash has to be collected and deposed of. This costs money which means someone who has their hand in the till doesn't get so much. Its the same with household trash clearing, every one should pay but there are those who wont and dump their trash in other peoples bins. Having paid for the bins to be emptied, you are lucky to get them emptied once every two weeks. Why, because it cost money and the same person with their fingers in the till lose out.

Simple fix. If your a foreigner stop visiting dual price venues. When revenue drops the greedy venues will drop there prices.
Dual pricing has been going on here for donkeys years. I don't see it changing any time soon.

If sea levels are rising, why are the water levels the same at low and high tide at Patong Phuket as they were thirty years ago? Why are the high and low water marks at the beach in my home town in the UK, the same now as they were 60 years ago?
The clue to the reason these cities in S.E.A. are flooding is quite clearly stated in the article, and it is not because the sea levels are rising.

Serious issue.
Poor reporting, translation or geographical knowledge.
I am certain East Kalimantan is not on the island of Java.
You are correct. It is Borneo. Java is much further south.

Kasikorn is the same. which is more secure. KrungThai is just a 6 digit access code and away you go.
