  1. An off topic, but related question:  A friend just bought a refillable, reusable card (for the MRT only).  It has a Visa logo on the front, a 16 digit Visa-like number on the back, and a CVV.  But it is not linked to his bank account, so is not a debit card.  And he was asked no questions about his employment or salary, so it is not a credit card either. Does anyone know what exactly this card is ?

  2. I have received conflicting information in response to the following question:  Is gay marriage possible in Thailand, if both partners are resident foreigners on one year visa extensions ?  Please cite your source.  I am not interested in rumours, gossip or hearsay.

  3. I guess someone has to answer this.  It isn't the first time I've had to answer my own question.

    I didn't see anything at Mabookrong.

    At Silom Complex,Saladaeng BTS Station:

       Double A Photocopying

       4th Floor

  4. Probably a longshot: I used to buy custom made insoles from a foreigner in Bangkok.  He has now sold the business, apparently to a medical centre in a "remote" section of Nonthaburi.  I have had no dealings with the business since it changed hands. I do have contact info. for someone there, who I presume can speak English.  Send me a private E-mail if you would like it.

  5. Posted six hours ago on Filipino Community in Thailand FB page:

    - major accident in Laos involving foreigners

    - many patients being transferred to Sun Pasit Thiprasong Hospital in downtown Ubon Ratchathani

    - blood donations required (all types)  My comment:  probably rh Negative blood types especially required

    -please consider responding if nearby.  Thank you.

  6. Is there anyone who has processed a Non-Immigrant "B" visa there since Jan. 1, 2025 ? I have just been asked a for guidance by someone who is an absolute beginner.  His main question is processing time.  Does he receive some sort of temporary sticker which will enable him to return to Thailand immediately ?  Or will it be necessary for him to remain in Malaysia for some period of time ?

  7. A friend has an Apple phone.  When he sends me a message in Facebook Chat, I can see it.  If I reply to his message, or if I send him a message, he can not see it. It doesn't matter if we are across town from each other, or sitting in the same room.  This just started a couple of days ago.  Each of us has no problem sending, receiving, or replying to anyone else, wherever they may be.  Any ideas what the problem is here ?
