Whatever the other ins and outs of this whole scenario are I am fairly certain that anyone working on an ED visa, even as an unpaid volunteer, is exposing themself to serious grief which may or may not materialize. Not advisable IMHO. Especially if the group has already been rejected by immigration.

Soapy king takes a bubbly detour: Chuwit’s suds-n-cancer-seek in Scotland

Not looking at those pix, no. -
This is not just a Thai problem. The prevalence of weapon type i.e. guns may be but killing for 'love', as femicide is euphemised, is prevalent around the world. As Margaret Atwood said: Men fear that women will laugh at them. Women fear that men will kill them. It's quite clear he was out to get her and took the two out who were protecting her.

Maybe have something to do with your beer buddies?

Teens Warned about Safe Sex as HIV Infections Rise
BusyB replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Surely teens should be warned about unprotected sex, not safe sex. -

Germany grants 16 billion baht to Thailand for climate change projects
BusyB replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Wow! That is some trough! I hope Berlin's keeping close tabs on where it all goes to. Although to be fair it probably will be monitored - Thai corruption is legendary throughout German society and government. -
Eisfeld I can confirm your research. It's on the Berlin site as well, also updated end of October. So I initially also thought they'd reimplemented it. However I'm inclined to think Dr.Jack is right. I can recall they announced this a few years ago, maybe ten, only to ditch it fairly quickly. Since there's been no official statement about it being resurrected I suspect it's just bad website housekeeping, or, because no official cancelling of the measure, it's left there by website maintenance who don't feel able to remove it. I've never heard of anyone refused entry with this 180 in 6 month issue, and I follow this forum almost daily for some 15 years.

Foreigner Arrested at Phuket Airport for 80 Days of Overstay
BusyB replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
He might have been simply some dude who decided risking picking up a pal at the airport. There is no reference to him trying to depart. It says ''arrested at the airport''. Could've been in a coffee bar. -
Getting used to live in a wheel chair

Sod the gold. I'd much prefer a Paralympic sports model. Never worn gold anyway. -
Getting used to live in a wheel chair
BusyB replied to OneMoreFarang's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Doesn't need to end things right now, but since there's obviously a process of deterioration underway, it would pay to have things in place when it gets to that stage. (It's an option I've considered as time goes on and I probably will get things into place before too much longer. I saw what happened to someone who didn't time the jumping off point right. It resulted in years of trouble and worry and at times misery for his family.) Sorry to hear about this guy's unfortunate position. But it sounds like he's still got a chance to continue having a good run for his money before things get too dire. -
Phuket Veg Fest food frenzy turns rancid: Sacred shrines face hygiene havoc
BusyB replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
I've never had a serious problem in 20 odd years of Thailand extended visits. There has been the odd occasion right at the start where I had to reach for the Disento. Remember that? In the yellow packs? They stopped making it a couple of years ago unfortunately. It was instant cure. -

He could turn failure into success by claiming it was a war wound from when he was a secret agent. If the thing still works that is.🤣 -
Operation launched to Regulate Society and Combat Influential Figures
BusyB replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Another day. Another parade. Another court report. It seems to give them a feelgood sense of doing something about serious problems without actually doing something. I'd far rather they spent all these parade times sat at their desks researching or out doing the footwork of investigating and then parading the actual 'influential figures'. But I suspect some of those are on parade here. Nothing but smoke and mirrors.
