When my girlfriend's son did his national service the canteen food was so bad he used to buy food from an on-site fast food vendor who happened to be the wife of a commander (I forget his rank) there. Apparently she did a roaring trade.... A nice little earner!

Wow! What a long way out of town! WhyTF do they do this?

Thousands of Thais living in apartments don't have a kitchen. They never cook

What a 5 Star C * * * Trump is!!!

My Thai girlfriend taught me to say this many years ago when repeatedly getting hustled to buy stuff at the beach: 'Pom kee nok farang. Mai mee satang!'. They don't expect to hear this from a farang and when they get over the shock it usually raises a laugh. It certainly gives me a laugh to see the expression on their face...😂.

Does dental treatment qualify?

True!

If you're willing to risk death and a horrible death at that, you carry on mate!

Well it's an issue with kids in my wife's family and they're smoking it at school too. I also have personal experience of the possible long-term effects on some who develop schizophrenia. I have been employed to support 2 in the UK. Young men in their early twenties unable to work and on powerful anti-psychotic medication for life. Their lives ruined by their old hippy generation parents allowing them to smoke it from their their early teens. And don't tell me it doesn't affect your brain. That's why you smoke it! When I was young we used to call it getting 'f u c k e d up' and for good reason because that's what it does to you. I stopped smoking it myself when I realized it was affecting my practical common sense thinking which we all need to get through life, especially our working life. If I was a rockstar or working in the creative arts I might think differently.

What is this all about? Please explain.

And the alarming numbers of young Thai kids now smoking regularly before their brains have finished developing is also a serious issue. So I am pleased about this legal backtracking.

Yes I questioned it. I even printed The 2 month requirement as shown on the Bangkok head office immigration website, but it did no good! There is a dinosaur in charge at NKP IO.

And some awkward IO's like mine still insists on 3 months before extension not two.

They want them to be sober when they fall asleep at their desks in the afternoon!

Where is your source for this and what is the date?
