With no need for a lawyer.

Thanks. I agree. Although considered a seed rather than a nut, sesame does have most of the characteristics of nuts. Those with nut allergies must avoid them. In the absence of Tahini I would add a little peanut butter and also a tad of sesame oil, widely available due to its use in Chinese cooking. If feeling adventurous one could blend some sesame seeds with sesame oil to create one's own form of Tahini. As you can see from above, and countless sources on the internet, peanut butter is a perfectly adequate substitute for Tahini. Anyway, like I said to the other guy, care to post your recipe or are you just going to criticise?

In my experience it's hit and miss. Since the baht has been strong against most major foreign currencies, the border officers have been reluctant to accept those currencies. From memory the VOA fee was $35. The baht fee is 1500. Doesn't take a mathematician to work out why the prefer, sometimes insist on, baht.

Can I get a work permit with a TEFL?
youreavinalaff replied to JDAC's topic in Teaching in Thailand Forum
Correct to a point. Without a degree you cannot get permission from the teachers' council to teach. This goes for any schools that are governed by OBEC. Without such permission you cannot get a work permit. Language centres and, strangely, universities do not need such permission and teachers without degrees can get work permits to teach at such establishments. -
Anyone know a decent not expensive place in O-Smach?
youreavinalaff replied to EvetsKram's topic in Isaan
It would have been far easier to have shared your knowledge and wisdom instead of posting a rather innocuous question. -
Sorry. I was referring to the place shown in your first map. Not Phayyak.

You show proximity to Buriram but are actually quiite a bit nearer to Muang Mahasarakham.

Why do you ask? -
No worries for me. I make my own peanut butter.

Not sure how many Issan schools you've been to but, the ones I've been to and know teachers at are full of NES. At the last count, the two major primary schools and the major secondary school nearest to where I live had a combined total of over 18 NES and zero NNES.

The best advice here. Otherwise, topics like this become a "my d$#k is bigger than your d$#k" slanging match.

Khon Kaen - Solicitor dealing with drawing up Will.
youreavinalaff replied to Speedo1968's topic in Isaan
My wife, daughter and I translated my will. The OP's will seems quite straight forward. Only cash and contents of bank account. If you have assets in your own country it would be advisable to have a separate Will there. You can easily start with " this will refers to all of my assets in Thailand" or something on the lines of. -

This has been done many times before. No need for lawyers. Write your own will, sign it and get two witnesses to sign it. Have the witnesses be someone who will not benefit from the will. Have 2 copies. One in English and one in Thai. Easy to translate a simple will, as yours seems to be. -
In order to get a bus into Sateuk, you would need to walk to the main road. There you will notice buses going to Buriram, obviously. Minibus transport is available at the airport, as I mentioned in my previous post.

Why would you want to travel 15 minutes in the wrong direction?

Anyone in a position to offer advice would be more than familiar with Satuek. The title of this thread is not an issue. Neither is Buriram a city. To the OP, there is car rental at the airport. If there happens to be nothing available when you arrive, it will be easy to get minibus transport into town. Have a Google of the local forum in Buriram for expats. The owner of that site has a car rental business. They are close to the bus station.

Non O visa refresh memory please
youreavinalaff replied to raptorea's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
It works well. My last year of being on a Non O I got very near to 17 months. I think I was 3 days out. I used it as an excuse to travel. Cambodia, India and UK. None involving visa stickers as the first two were Evisas and the UK no stamps. Passport still with lots of pages. I've never bothered to get a 60 day extension at immigration until the enter before date has passed. It doesn't extend visa life so didn't see the point. I see the convenience if one lives a long way from a border and close to immigration.
