Never heard such catterwalling. Idont carry my passport but a copy is always with me with current visa, I dont bother with certification. I also carry my wallet everywhere I go, as do most people, and in it is my photo ID acceptable Australian drivers license. Here ends the requirement and it has ever been to the best of my knowledge.

They just keep on selling tickets but dont worry about the number of seats available.

How does one go about identifying other TV members. One couldn't say, for example, "Is there a Rimmer in the bar."

Perhaps a new occupation of "driver shaker" on buses and officially listing purse and gold chain snatchers as employed could help lower the rate and counter the tourism downturn.

Airlines around the world are struggling in a highly competitive industry, major cultural changes are needed to save the airlines of some countries. Qantas are going through this now and needed to as they were /are a sht product loosing money and hoping / expecting the Australian government to bail them out. Thankfully that didn't happen, I think the public is tired of private profits and public losses, from poorly managed corporations.

Thai will need to bite the bullet with austerity measures like Qantas and if an effective CEO cannot be found locally then they have to look elsewhere.

This is the post of the day. Please bite the bullit like QANTAS. The best way to do that is with little Irish leprechaun. Please come and get the one running QANTAS. No none here will miss him.

The problem is they are always looking for a Thai to fill the position. They need to look outside of Thailand for someone who is qualified.

Thank you I am ready and able to do the Job if they want me. I am glad that you were thinking of me

Harry I know its great there in Pattaya but it is still in Thailand last time I looked. The brief said "look outside of Thailand".

I fear this will be a pay day for the BIB. Speed checks may now include a visa check. On the spot bht200 for speeding and bht???? for visa irregularity. Shouldn't take long for the masters of scam to wake to this opportunity. Perish the thought.

Doesn't seem really logical to assume a murder suicide this early. Maybe it was and maybe it wasn't. The info from the article doesn't give enough info to know. In addition, it depends on whether or not the police aren't lazy on the case. Fingerprints and DNA, background info and lots more stuff should be looked into before automatically making the final call on the case.

Forensics perhaps?

What's a hub? There's always hubbub whenever the word hub is used.

I can't believe that divers are in that canal. What courage. They should receive all sorts of danger money and bravery awards!

This body could have been disposed of by anyone or any group. Thailand, like any other nation, has murders that don't have a political motive. Please don't be so quick to allocate blame.

Another farang who thinks he can get away here with stuff he can t get away with at home.

I tend to agree with your comment but if you really want to be "rebelplatoon" you have to stop sounding like mother theresa.

"Province suffering from shortage of virgins".....how big is the province anyway?

Sent from my GT-I9200 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app

Nothing to do with the size of the province. Its more to do with an excess of uncles.

I think the current salary arrangements have to be changed fitst. They must remove that part that says "9000bt/ month plus tips etc."

Gonna be hard now for the hardcore red-shirt fanatics to mount a serious challenge now to the general - He's just put money in the pockets of those who have traditionally been UDD / PTP supporters and dug some of them out of a financial hole. That will certainly raise his and the army's popularity at a grass roots level.

I doubt very much that they are going to go against him, especially as PTP left them balancing on the abyss for a long time with empty promises.

Nice bit of populism it would appear?

I really like this post but would suggest that the populism was the ruse of ptp who then reneged on peyment. I would refer to the current peyments as as " nice bit of justice it would appear".

Well hello sailor!

I had to do a visa run on the day of the 2006 coup. My wife made an enquiry by phone to immigration and the answer was basically "are you stupid of course its closed there has been a coup." I then rang one of the visa run van companies who happily told me that their fitst vans were at Poipet already and the border was open. We then drove up and renewed my visa without a problem. On the way we passed a few tanks at some majot intersections which I later understood were in case of rebel army units attempting to head to bkk. This fear was never realised. The mood of soldiers at these chechpoints was nothing short of jubilent.

My apologies to "bkkgooner" post 26 somehow my post in response post60 was included as part of your post.

Martial law should never be invoked under any situation, an army that works against the people and becomes a police force completely misses the point they are meant to be the guardians of the country against outside forces, their role is to HELP Thai people not to fight against any of them.

The army have done NOTHING in the past few months and have been utterly ineffective in trying to stop violent attacks, let's see if they even have the balls to go and remove the few guards and the insane monk who have managed to hold onto a gigantic government complex for about 6 months. They have been getting destroyed in the south for years and were really outrageously stupid in 2010 as well.

Well you just can't have it both ways. In your fitst para you rail against martial law and backflip in the second to criticise the Army supposedly doing nothing.

The Army has acted responsibly yet again. Good work General Prayuth.

Will this affect Phuket property prices,

I wouldn't invest if Imwere you. You could do your shirt! Oh.. hang on....

Truly amazing Thailand. Now that the whole region is prosperous thanks to the governments rice pledging scheme I am surprised that they still want to sell their souls and the soul of their nation for bt1000. Why can't the red shirt leader be named? Name em and shame em I say!

If this is the same lunch box man why is he still a lawyer? I thought that guy got a custodial sentence or am I wrong. Does Thailand have the eqivalent of a bar society?(In a legal sense of course)

Aw, daddy (Thaksin) couldn't bank roll their campaign funds? Perhaps daddy knows that he'll be wasting his money on two clowns. He rather use that money to get his whole clan out because the [ema

=S@%5E*T]S^#*T[/email] about to hit the fan.

If Daddy (Thaksin) only pays for results why does he persist with the perennial legal loser Noppadom. This guy has lost every task set him in recent times even with the aid of a lunch box. I think Thaksin likes sychophantic brown nosers even more than achievers. Its the desert sun you know.

Perhaps more than taking bat and ball. An ominous foreboding of bad behaviour without dragging the party down has come over me. It may work for an unjust cause too. Watch these men they are not to be trusted.

I doubt that a five year ban would be a punishment for Khun Yingluck. She is probably celebrating her release from the clutches of Dr Evil in Dubai. Impeachment, five year ban from politcs.shopplng spree versus exoneration, back to pariiament and the bidding of Dr Evil. I think we all know, deep down, which this lady would prefer. No excuses but perhaps she is in fact a victim of sorts in all this.
