Manufacture - to produce under your control and supervision with any activity involved - you need company. However if you want to place an order to local manufacture, pick it up (or ask somebody) and arrange shipment - you don't need to do anything. I knew one man from Israel who placed orders for jewelry worth tens of thousands euros while arriving each time on tourist visa. About twice every 3 month since 2003.

Denied permission to leave.
NativeBob replied to Randy99's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Good one ) Works like a charm to me as well. -
to gamble at casino in Bangkok? Yes there are "underground playgrounds" but not for public access. seems that polish freak and thai taxi driver got alone just fine: frequent stops, restaurants, english speaking tuk-tuk pilot etc. The only thing went "wrong" was not the fact that he killed his companion, but "annoying persistence" to clean up be cause of the smell. Freaky!

my bad, I missed that part somehow. yes, its a horrible horrible crime, and that monster Jan got wrong saw. What a pathetic freak. this's the correct one:
-
Nope. These are 2 reports, right? So likely 2 different witnesses arrived to the scene at different times and saw 2 different "events": First one was about left wrist and saw, the second was about multiple parts and no saw. Obviously the third witness won't see anything - RPT would clean the crime scene by that time. The article at daily-mail gives better picture, that ^^^. However looking at that monster Jan - he doesn't look 25, rather 47 - bold and ugly, how that woman even considered working with him? Probably out of desperation? Also, that's expensive hotel, sorta posh one. Something is missing. again.

Teenage boy bitten by rat at food court in Bangkok shopping mall
NativeBob replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
the owner of the printing shop in BKK told me that there are huge rats running over almost every floor at night. She said the biggest one was size of the small cat. And that is "not so old shopping mall" in Bangkok. -
sad story indeed

Kiwi locked up in Thailand with no clothes, food or water
NativeBob replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Obviously something is missing here: thai policemen won't go that inhumane unless they got really pissed. Kiwi man probably dizzed them big time. 2 pills is nothing, not worth even detaining him for an hour. That's not a case. There's something we were not told. -
Stranded in Thailand: Bankrupt foreign woman unable to return home
NativeBob replied to snoop1130's topic in Krabi News
I assume the mistake was in translation: not $10K but rather mere THB10K ~about $300. sometimes thais use word "coin" lien regarding greenback. that brings things in order. Otherwise yes, why she didn't just buy her a ticket? Another question rises: do US Embassy in particular provide such service "loan4ticket"? What I know belgium emb. doesn't, polish no-no too, while the emb. of 5th republic does. -
Medicine / herb to relieve anger, stress
NativeBob replied to Kenny202's topic in Health and Medicine
Great advice, exactly same happened with me. Unless I knew what am I suggesting/doing/prescribing don't bother to engage and offer any help. If it fails (100% it will) everybody will consider that was your fault. My ex went banana without any rational reason until we couldn't tolerate it any longer. Never been happier ever since ) Any shrink will suggest "tranks", some might suggest Xanax, however just keep yourself as far as possible from her. Person that has such mental breakout is dangerous. -
Extra class after school possible?
NativeBob replied to Joe32's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Amazingly yes, indeed, every one does it. almost every "teeecha" I met in my kid's school rush from school for their extra-private sessions. Only dude from Barklay's didn't (is it correct name?) he got 150K salary and jealous wife. Another one was brit: lazy old fart and Singha-man, yet sweet and kind chap. good idea for sure! -
Bangkok-2019. Kasikorn Bank. 3 years detailed records. 500 thb. About a week long. For legal/court case.

VISA for 5 year old child
NativeBob replied to glegolo18's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
You noticed too? -
Once we rented completely empty room. It is so nice to furnish it with your own furniture, place things the way you prefer and sleep on your bed. Not even Aircon! only sliding door to balcony and (well) bathtub. However we paid 2 month "deposit" and 1 month advance. 4 years later landlord-ness withheld about half of deposit for "renovation". She didn't want to pay even that half, but I told her I'll report her for tax evasion. However the deal was great 73 sq.m. double corner flat on 23rd floor for 9K nett. 2 balconies.

VISA for 5 year old child
NativeBob replied to glegolo18's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yes, this makes perfect sense. The confusion is only about age limitations. However that story is irrelevant for today, but gave us hell back then. None of schools gave any papers to obtain student visa except once office lady issued printout "this kid is attending school" + stamp and unreadable signature. -
VISA for 5 year old child
NativeBob replied to glegolo18's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
a slight confusion: I've been told by IMO lady at CW that kid (born in Thailand) can stay in Thailand without Visa but not leaving. But at the day he turn 14 (not 15) he must obtain valid visa or face penalties including imprisonment. And she laughed watching kid crying because he didn't understand why prison if he is not guilty. -
Maybe they had some other activity as well? Something that is not THAT MUCH available back in India? Maybe there were some extra hot somtam? Ultra delicious durians? Or something even more fruity? Otherwise the whole 50K roundtrip makes no sense: Mumbai - Bangkok - Mumbai airfare + transfer to PTT and back + few nights in NOT 4* Asia Pattaya
-
Still wonder what is the point to travel from India to Pattaya where gambling officially prohibited? There are many online casinos and anyone can gamble at the luxury of his home, villa, beach side with or without hookah? btw, full setup of such site starts from $25K incl. billing registration and payment processing. Asia Pattaya Hotel? Please!

non-O visa through agents

Samut Prakan is practically Bangkok, good to hear! Is there any details/contacts? -
Thailand is the biggest exporter of condoms in the world
NativeBob replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Latex products are going export big times. Not just overpriced pillows and mattresses but huge quantities of those rubber caps - I used to deal with one of export companies - 100% BOI nothing for local market, not 7/11 stuff. They claim its better than Trojan and similar. And correct sizes too. -
about 10+ years ago we fixed this "problem" around our area with very cheap solar-charged motion activated Dazers. Installed them on the walls and that was it. Not even single mutt. Somehow they do not enjoy that buzz. Bought on Ebay.

Two Russian Teens Arrested In Gang Attack On Rival At Pattaya Market
NativeBob replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
17 and 19 - hardly make "teenagers". However kids are still kids these days. What sort of ding-dong <deleted>-head will join thai gang? That sort of low life scum? 5AM? I wonder who are their parents: likely 60+ russian fatso and thai LBFM.
