Google search "Wiki Chiang Rai Province". Scroll down. On the right side you will see an outline map showing the ampheurs (Districts). If you search places individually, the results should indicate in which ampheur each is situated.

First Daily Departure Time, Hua Hin to Bangkok
allane replied to allane's topic in Hua Hin and Cha-Am
Thank you to both of you. I posted this because I thought it was probably not realistic, which turned out to be correct. I had advised my friend to make a Plan B, which he did. And Plan B is the one he has now used. -
Can anyone provide the first daily departure time for a bus or van from Hua Hin to either Morchit 2, Victory Monument, or Sai Tai Mai (Southern Bus Terminal) ? - please indicate to which of these locations the van goes. - please indicate the departure point from Hua Hin - please give an estimated travel time for an early morning departure on a holiday. I am not in Hua Hin myself.I am attempting to assist someone who has never been there before, and wants to attempt to get to Morchit 2 for a 9:00 a.m. departure from there. Thank you.

If she is still in her home country, I think she should contact whatever govt. dept. is responsible, and get a letter saying that she is one and the same person. where I come from, it is the Department of Vital Statistics. (registers births, marriages, divorces and deaths.)

I am contemplating opening one. But I want to know if they will permit me to make withdrawals/transfers while I am here in Thailand. I am sure someone will say "Why don't you ask them?". I am planning to do that, but also hope to find corroboration here. I have a bank account with them, which I only opened because an employee in one of their branches assured me that I would be able to request transfers from here in Thailand. Then, the first time I tried to do one, the very same person told me that I could only do one if I came into the branch !

Is Ferry from pattaya to hua hin closed permanently
allane replied to Jenson55's topic in Thailand Travel Forum
Precisely. I never understood why anyone ever thought they could make a go of it. There would be virtually no Thai demand. Anyone who lived in one of these communities would have no reason to visit the other. As for foreigners, would there ever have been enough on any one sailing to make it pay ? Maybe, one sailing a week for three months of the year would work, but that wouldn't justify the investment. And what would the employees do for the other six days ? -
You are entitled to Thai statutory holidays. If a holiday falls on a Saturday (and you normally work Saturdays), that is the day you get off. If a holiday falls on a Sunday, you get the Monday off.

Carriage of suitcase from Bangkok to Roi Et
allane replied to SteveMdmt's topic in Thailand Travel Forum
While I don't know which company it was, it was definitely not the Pink Bus. Sorry I can't be more helpful. I no longer live in the area. -

I once took a bus from Amnat Charoen to Khon Kaen. It passes through Phanthong. -
A scam is something where you are not given what you were promised. This is not a scam. It might be called an unacceptable offer to renew a contract. As for your Thai friend, it doesn't appear that she was scammed either.

Agreed. My intention is more to warn others.

There has been an apparent Covid-19 outbreak at the 7-11 in downtown Surin, across the street from K-bank. I was by there at about 11:15 a.m. Tues. Nov. 2. The store had just been closed, and staff were leaving. Two ambulance attendants in full hazmat gear were guarding the door. I asked what was happening, and they said "Covid". Does anyone have any information, particularly, the time of the first known case ? While I am now vaccinated, I was in there at about 5:00 p.m. on Mon. Nov. 1.

You need: - From you passport, 1 copy each of your ID page, Arrival card page, and current Visa Extension page, and the completed "90 Day Notification form" - Two envelopes; one small enough to fit inside the other 1. Sign and date the 3 photocopied pages and the 90 Day form. 2. Address the small envelope to yourself. 3. Address the large envelope to your Immigration office, with your return address on it too. Do not seal the large envelope at this point. 4. Take all the above to the Post Office, about 2 weeks before your due date. Buy a 3 baht stamp and put it on the small envelope. (In the future, you might reduce from 2 weeks). 5. At this point, put everything else in the large envelope and seal it. 6. Tell the clerk you want to send it by Registered Mail (Rong tabien in Thai). Buy enough postage to do that. Affix the stamps, and keep the receipt. This prevents Immigration from saying they didn't receive it.

Is Bang Sue railway station still open on the 21st.October.
allane replied to kidneyw's topic in Thailand Travel Forum
Oct. 21, (Khao Phensa) is not a statutory holiday. Friday, Oct 22 (Sustituition for Chulalongkorn Day) is a statutory holiday. Of note: the latter would normally have been celebrated on Sat. the 23rd. But, to create a 3 day weekend (to more effectively spread Covid-19), the govt. has moved it to the 22nd. -
You need to verify if the Park you are planning to visit has accommodation within the Park.

Thai Airways International Routes Start To Return
allane replied to VBF's topic in Thailand Travel Forum
I flew Thai Airways to Phuket in about 2000. I happened to be staying near their office, and walked in at one point to ask about limousine service to the airport for my departure. I saw a sign on the wall, noted the most suitable time, and walked out. There was nothing to indicate that a reservation was required, no indication that the service was operated by some other company, and no indication that the limousine departed from somewhere else. All of these points I found out a couple of hours before my flight. When I wrote to Thai airways to complain about this they called me a liar. I have not been on one of their planes since. -
Question about 1.2 call cards ( 50 or 100 bahts )
allane replied to Aforek's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
I personally have never had this problem. A friend, also with AIS, did. My best guess was that he had inadvertently signed up for some text message service in Thai. Are you receiving "The Joke of the Day", "The News of the Day", or anything similar ? Even if the answer is no, call AIS. They fixed the problem for my friend. The value of the card decreases only when you call or send a text message. -
A friend of mine, then (and still) employed at a government school, had a 2nd job at another nearby public vocational school. He was required to get a letter from the director of the govt. school stating "no objection", but did not get an actual written amendment to hi Work Permit. I don't know if this constituted full compliance with the law, but it worked for him.
