  1. What difference does it make to the natives and to the foreigners whether or not we are in the government-declared winter season?
  2. That's a courageous and very welcome act to have been taken by the cabinet. Congratulations!
  3. Thanks. I wrote that wrong. I did mean MSG, Monosodium Glutamate. Vile stuff when added to food in excessive quantity and unnecessary. Thai cuisine has so many herbs that can be used to add flavour.
  4. Just like I said. Food has a bad taste (flavour) Add "flavour enhancer" Now the food has an "enhanced flavour", ie no longer a bad flavour. Actually, I would have thought that all the garlic and chili would be enough to mask the original bad flavour, in fact kill all meat flavour completely regardless whether the meat was good or bad, but it seems that does not really work and GSM is needed to do the job. Or perhaps the addition of GMS is just overkill. I really do not know, and I suspect that the cooks using GSM also do not know, but the recipe writers who say "GMS (as desired)" probably know but they can't write: "good meat, add no GSM; bad meat, add GSM as desired until the flavour is good"
  5. MSG Is it bad meat and MSG is used to mask its bad flavour?
  6. Thank you for this clarification.
  7. Thank you for this clarification.
  8. Home delivery of alcoholic beverages is legal and and advertising this service is not a scam.
  9. What would you imagine for tourists not arriving on a visa?
  10. What about stir-fried squid with curry powder?
  11. What about barbecued suckling pig?
  12. Thank you for sharing this information about yourself. Was the food home-cooked or in a what restaurant?
  13. Yes, it is, although shocking may not be quite the correct attribute from the website owner's and the advertiser's point of view. Frightening, perhaps.
  14. Pay attention to how he pronounces Pattaya. It may be silly, but just for this alone, I wouldn't choose him as my tax advisor.
  15. I wonder. How does Mr Mook Sulaiman know that "there are no longer any Thai workers in Hamas custody" when at the same time he admits that "their current whereabouts are unknown"? I wonder. Does Mr Sulaiman have a contact in the Hamas group who told him so? I wonder, but this may be irrelevant. Is Sulaiman an Arabic surname? I'm making no implications; just being my curious self.
  16. The OP did not write "...leave to live in another country..." but from what you now write it seems that we were meant to understand it that way. Is that it?
  17. Wan Org Pansa[sic]. That's a new transliteration for what is otherwise known as Wan Ok Phansa. Of course, there is no offical rule for the transliteration or romanisation of the Thai script, so I'm not complaining, just making an observation. Personally, I find wān ʔɔ̀ːk pʰān.sǎː rather cute.
  18. Shouldn't the police be able to trace the mobile phone to which the daughter's LINE account is attached?
  19. What does the bank say about the money? Are they not allowed to tell the father?
  20. Since the Tesla share price did not jump up and as I had some play money lying around I now speculate on a price downturn and sold a naked TSLA put option. With a bit of luck, I will be the owner of 100 Tesla shares at USD 190.00 per share (currently trading at 219.71) by the end of next week.
  21. It depends on the land crossing you use. The TM.6 requirement has been suspended only at 16 major land and sea entry points.
  22. The chronology of the TM.6 requirement apparently is like this: Once upon a time, all aliens arriving in Thailand had to fill out the TM.6 arrival/departure card. Then, a few years ago, this requirement was abolished for aliens arriving by air. Starting from 15 April 2024, the requirement was suspended for aliens arriving at 16 key land and sea checkpoints, including Aranyaprathet in Sa Kaeo, Chiang Saen in Chiang Rai, and Padang Besar in Songkhla for a period of six months, ie until 15 October 2024. On 15 October 2024, the suspension for aliens arriving at 16 key land and sea checkpoints has been extended until 30 April 2025.
  23. Oops. Thank you. I now cleaned the lenses of my spectacles and saw that you wrote fight, not flight.
  24. What's a peer to peer flight? Never mind, I just looked it up (Leo AI) but cant figure our how if fits into this topic:
  25. I'm afraid your post makes no sense to me at all.
