    " . . . in the real world."

    There's your answer . . . the Royal Thai Police force is as far removed from the real world as it's possible to be and that is almost certainly due to the ever growing level of corruption, dodgy dealings and 'fixed' recruiting that is now endemic to the entire force - 'force', how's that for an oxymoron? - from the top, down.

     

    Sorting the RTP will be the biggest challenge of all to the next government . . . the next corruption-free government, that is.

    I thought that was a junta promise but ended up with the fox watching the hen house so to speak.

    Bionizer is a salt water pool chlorinator replacement system that uses natural mineral ions, copper and silver to transform swimming pools and spas to natural water without using chemicals such as chlorine. It leave your pool with sparkling, healthy and fresh water that will give you the best swimming experience you will ever have.

    But I also completely agree with Bargwain with this that “Plenty of systems claiming to be fresh water, however most are just a spin on words & clever marketing”

    They still need a small amount of residual chlorine.

    tax stamps ( 2  5 baht each) go in the upper right corner...

    I had the owner of my hose ( brit) make up 4 copies of everything (poa, all copies with company stamps and signed ( not photocopied)

    First desk on the right,1st guy


     

    when were u last asking in immigration? I asked on monday

    Those who deal with immigration regularly know that things can change on a whim. I used to ask what papers were needed for 1 year extension & reply "same as last year". So when I go with everything "same as last year" it is not enough. Either need something extra or they change the specs on how they want it presented.

  4. Used to get slight stinging feeling in Patong going back to early 2005. One of my daughter's was more susceptible & would come out with some rather large welts although was OK prior to that as we visited the beach often

  5. Have recently enjoyed Reign, Good Behaviour (Lady Mary of Downton Abbey fame plays a drug addicted, alcoholic, con artist) & Dark which lives up to it's name & one of the best shows I have seen a long time.

    Thai Immigration Act Section 37 / 3

    An alien having received a temporary entry permit into the Kingdom must comply with the following:

    Shall notify the police official of the local police station where such alien resides, within twenty–four hours from the time of arrival. In the case of change in residence in which new residence is not located the same area with the former police stations, such alien must notify the police official of the police station for that area within twenty-four hours from the time of arrival.

     

    Phuket Immigration is using this law not really right (because by law you would have to submit a TM28 to the police and not a TM30 to immigration), but that's the basis for their request

     

    Immigration is a branch of the police.

    Thanks, but where is the link to doing my 90 day report online???? OR how do I go about this?

    Sorry don't know. Never tried it.

    This is the question I asked a volunteer about re register address. "What paperwork do you need if you happen to be staying in the home owned by your Thai wife in which case you do not have any rental or lease agreement.

    In that situation you just need a copy of the tabien Baan, your wifes ID card, and sometimes they ask for a copy of your marriage certificate. Then just a copy of your passport, current visa, last entry stamp in to Thailand, and TM6 Departure card & a filled out TM 30 card (just the top half, signed by the wife."
     

    This situation obviously does not apply to everyone. I did it recently & they did not ask for marriage certificate but best to have an updated one just in case, which can easily be done at the Amphur office.

    I am still none the wiser, however I would like to attempt to do my 90 day reporting online and the only link I have for doing this seems to be: extranet.immigration.go.th  and this doesn't work!

    Another link I see posted here: http://www.phuketimmigration.go.th/notify/ sends me to something which is completely in Thai and from what I can gather from other posters, is really about the owner of a property registering something or another?

    So how do I go about doing my 90 day report online............. please?

    It is for registering your address after you have been away.

    Nope, she wasn't paying attention and only hit the brakes (which weren't working), after she smashed into the motorbike and the car skidded throwing the young victim ahead of the car. 

    Yes it was obvious from the video the brakes worked quite well just prior yo hitting the nurse. Looks like she was not paying attention as she seemed to suddenly swerve to avoid the car in front.
