What on earth has passport to do with this?

Dont mix citizenship/nationality and passport.

 

She is still a Thai citizen, regardless of the passport she travels on.

 

If she was not a Thai citizen Thai authorities would hardly ask for extradition.

Well, I am not mixing no nothing.  You just ask any immigration officer... Yes, she is a Thai citizen. But for the Thais only... Wherever she will go with another passport, she will have the "nationality" of the country of the passport she travels with.

Weird comment.

 

Having her Thai passports revoked and the lass traveling on whatever passport Cyprus - UAE - Montenegro or whatever,

doesn't change the fact that she is a Thai citizen.

 

If she were not Thai, how on earth could the Junta guys ask to have her extradited?

 

Well, quite easy to understand...if she does not travel with a Thai passport, she is not Thai wherever she goes with her Cyprus, UAE or Montenegro passport. She is a citizen of Cyprus, UAE or Montenegro.  And in that case, whatever her roots are, how can the government of Thailand ask for the extradition of a Cyprus, UAE or Montenegro citizen?  Oh yes, they can, but everybody knows what the outcome will be.

I am quite surprised that nobody ever mentioned that she might be using "another" country passport when she travels. Ms. Yingluck? Oh yes, we have one person named Yingluck...but sorry guys, she is not Thai! Wrong person!

Hi everyone,

Quite a few years ago, I spent some time in Krabi and around Phang Nga.  I stayed in a very nice resort, close by a beach, made of bungalows (see the pictures
 attached....)

I plan to go back there in a couple of months with friends from Europe....The only problem is that I just cannot remember the name of that resort!  And the person I was with unfortunately passed away...

Anyone  out there who could help me out  finding back and locating this resort ?

Thanks for your help!

Friends of mine will come to Thailand at the end of October.  They will travel with their two children, their respective spouses and grand children...a party of 9 persons.

And they want to see Phang Nga Bay, Ko Khao Phing Kan, and whatever else interesting to seein the surroundings.

Can you recommend a nice and practical place to stay?  They would like to have access to the beach too...

Thank you all for your assistance and recommendations!

Not quite true Hong Bong... Many of them, not most of them.

Unless you are an oil worker on a contract no reason to go there. Corrupt dangerous and dirty, I’m told.

I confirm. Very dangerous, very corrupted and very dirty too. At least, Lagos. I went there.

Well... a Nigerian dealing coke in Thailand... That's "international business" isn'it?

I'd be interested to know which European country has issued Yingluck with a passport, holders of passports from most countries in Europe don't need a visa to enter the UK. 

Indeed...You have a point. I'd really be interested to learn what "European" country gave her a passport...

Thaksin "wants" to make the same come back Mahatir did. He has always been dreaming to become the Mahatir of Thailand...

Its still got to e safer to have your phone and batteries in carry on luggage in a controlled environment. What would happen if one ignited in the luggage hold ?  and FYI when a LiPo battery ignites there is no extinguisher that will put it out as its a violent chemical reaction. A bit worrying isn't it ?  Maybe all phones will have to be put in a LiPo fire retardent bag, same as we use for Radio controlled planes. More legislation to come !!

I totally agree with most of your comment but...yes, there are fire extinguishers that can put Lithium batteries fires out...  As previously stated, these were on display at the recent 2018 IATA Cabin Safety Conference held at the Bangkok Shangri La this last week...

The reaction between lithium and water is normally quite violent.  Water would not be a recommended way of extinguishing a li-ion battery fire.

 

 

Quite a correct statement. But solutions to that kind of problems exist, as it could be seen during the very recent IATA Cabin Safety Conference held at the Bangkok Shangri La. It is simply a decision that has to be made by the airlines: is a little investment worth to be safe or are we willing to be sorry one day?

I agree that many of those motorcycle taxis are trying to over charge you. BUT it's a regulated market and those motorcycle taxis are registered and have had to pay to get their spot, then GRAB comes and take their livelihood away. Just look at NY, where the a taxi shield used to be wort something but with UBER and other apps the taxi industry is dying. All because of the greed of app developers and people that don't want to pay a fair price! 

Please...wake me up!  Must be a nightmare!

40.000 THB AND a big picture of the vehicle license plate in all the Thai papers...paid for by the culprit for national shaming!

Paraquat is so toxic that it is banned in the European Union since 2007!
