You would need to employ 4 Thai people in your company to get a work permit for yourself. Unless you are from the USA, you can only own 49% of the company, the remaining 51% must be in a Thai name.

what kind of arrangement do Americans have?

Sounds like they should call it the G-spot Bar to me

did you live in Samui before? in the early 90-s there used to be a club with that name in Chaweng

it's not clear to me how many people travel in total: they say they don't travel all together but in different (4-5) groups, but they also state it's about 6 people... is it maybe that they're allowed to bring their wives/families/mia-noi?

and what country (-ies)

typical...

money talks! 

lucky man you are this month! ????

was this storm natural or do you think the planes went up and started seeding? in that case they seeded to much, haha!

Chuwit for PrimeMinister!

dzjeeeeezusss, get a life, go read a book! do something constructive with yr life...

yippie! this will clear the air! in ChiangMai it is noteable right away! now we can see the mountains around us, now we can breathe again! ????

it's similar with my monthly pension from Holland. they send a form to you, which you must have stamped & signed at SocSecOff.

I do that in ChiangMai at GovernmentCentre, piece of cake!

War-dog? what war? Tland has not been in war for centuries already...

Seems amazing that only Chuwit knows all this stuff....seems amazing, because all the top in government and RTP already knew....Chuwit is so obviously just being the brave "whistleblower"....the spokesperson if you will!

Chuwit is the only one who dares to talk in public about it, but of course many others know about this...

I truly hope he's got a good (life-)insurance!

never a dull moment in Amazing Tland! ????????????????????????????

you need a good experienced lawyer who understands your situation. I went thru this many years ago, lot of paperwork and meetings! but at the end it worked out well and I even could change my visa into 'dependant visa' with only 400.000 on the bank!

so yes, it is possible but you need to prepare it well!

I agree with him that 2am should be enough, although his reasoning seems not right. Covid has not much to do with closing hours... but how the "Alcohol-Business Association" spins it is appalling as well!

most trouble and/or traffic accidents are at night or at least when it's dark. I also like to watch soccer but I watch it in daytime, much easier, no disruption of my daily routine!

Gobbledegook!

 

Maybe he was "late for an important date"?

Why do so many lie in this country like a child caught with its hand in the cookie saying they were just making sure the jar was full. Just be honest. 

it's in the genes to not tell straightforward anything. avoiding directness... also has to do with responsibility that no one seems to take...

major loss of face here ????

hard to define any painting...

every night before sleeping I read a book, usually I wake up to early so read on... 

me and some friends are circulating books around!

in ChiangMai are a couple used bookshops, when in BKK near KhaoSanRoad several reasonable used bookshops!

Thais are not readers, their attentionspam is very short! their phone is their magic tool, tiktok, roblox etc, but not for me! in Cmai 2 bookstores, small selection English books, bigger selection with Thai books, but almost no one in the shop! 

2 bookstores seems little for more than 1 million people that live here, but it is what it is... 

mind you, worldwide reading books lost it's popularity, but I also heard that through tiktok (!) some peeps promote reading books, so there's hope...

last night in ChiangMai 1 hour solid rain! good for plants in garden! ????
