  1. This is exactly the way that the Thai 'powers that be' want it. Without English Thais cannot learn about the outside World so the majority are more easily controlled, manipulated, and exploited for cheap labour.
  2. I also never stay long enough to report after my extension. Last year I went in person 90 days after re-entry but this year after re-entry in September I registered online and reported online just last week and it was accepted after about 3 hours. So there is obviously no requirement to do the 1st report in person every time after re-entry.
  3. In 16 years to and from Thailand - UK I have never been asked for my boarding pass entering at Suvarnabhumi. Nor was I asked last time at the end of September which was since the TM6 was withdrawn.
  4. Bad news Im afraid. They emailed to say that they cannot find a company to deliver to my location in Thailand. But you could try them with your location as I am off the beaten track, so to speak.
  5. The shelf life of craft beers is much shorter too, at least it is in the UK.
  6. They really take care of expats in Udon Thani. They have recently opened a new health care facility especially for them:

      • Haha
  7. Not sure if I am registered on the old or new site. Do you have to re-register on the new site? Do u have a link for the new site please Joe?
  8. Yes I know. It must be awful sitting in the dark and murk waiting for that to happen. Panic probably overwhelmed their presence of mind to do that, especially at their age...????.
  9. No, they replied quickly and politely in their live chat facility that they would get a quote for delivery. But no reply as yet suggests that it may not be possible. I will post if I get a reply.
  10. Jeez! What a mindset! Most people park the way that is most convenient to them without considering the SLIGHTLY increased risk when leaving the space into oncoming traffic. It is only the law that defines it as wrong!
  11. Never mind the windows! Instinct and common sense would be to open the doors.
  12. Glad to hear there is some encouragement for punctuality in this country. My Thai girlfriend is always late for everything and doesnt seem to care about it. The 4 kids in her charge are routinely late for (state) school and there never seems to be any come back. Is this a private or state school?
  13. This is the beauty of nuclear weapons as a deterrent. It is insanity to use them on another nuclear-armed enemy because you know you will get the same in return and probably more. To use them is suicide, plain and simple.
  14. I actually understand the Thai logic in this. You can only get a year's bank statement up to the previous day to renewal, so in theory you could withdraw money from an ATM taking you below 800k on the morning of renewal without immigration knowing. By insisting on seeing a bank book transaction on the account the same day they know for sure that there is 800k in the bank at the time of extension renewal. Mind you an ATM withdrawal can still be made after the bank book update without it showing in the bank book. So OK, you are right it is illogical...555. Also after extension renewal you can go and withdraw as much as you like but in both instances you would not be able to renew the following year.
  15. His supporters obviously dont!
  16. I wished to delete my post but there is no way provided by Aseanow to do this....Only to edit!
  17. I just googled it and found it. I have asked on this website's chat facility for a quote for delivery to Thailand: https://www.shopping-d.com/products/beerlao-ipa-carton-330ml-bottle-per-box-of-24-bottles
  18. Is IPA a new addition to the beer Lao range, or are you referring to normal Beer Lao or Beer Lao Gold?
  19. Dont split hairs. The inference is clear and well justified.
  20. As someone commented in the article; if black she'd have been shot!
  21. Out of the frying pan............................
