Why is Thailand so terrible at sport?
Smokin Joe replied to Yellow Fever's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub

Among countries in Southeast Asia, Thailand ranks first in terms of the number of gold medals (10), and second in the number of overall medals (35), only behind Indonesia which has 37 medals.

Smokin Joe replied to Georgealbert's topic in Eastern Thailand
That is a 25 pound practice bomb. probably a Mk76 or BDU-33. It is just a big chunk of steel. It does have a smoke cartridge that looks like a shotgun shell that is hazardous. -

I was impressed with how extensive the eye exam was at Pattaya International on Soi 4. It was included with a full physical checkup package. They do have an eye exam package on their website for 2990 Baht. Seems expensive for an eye exam but they have some very high tech equipment that an eyeglass retailer like Euro Optic probably wouldn't have. Eye Check Up Package

USA State Department Credit Union
Smokin Joe replied to shortstop2's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
If you have a military affiliation of any kind Navy Federal Credit Union has no problem with members being outside the US and they are ok with using a mail forwarding agent as your address. They are the largest credit union in the US by a wide margin and have many overseas branches. Nearest ones in Singapore and Japan. -

So many people taking this seriously. If you are going to roast the OP at least be creative. -
Which size Colgate has a flip top?
Smokin Joe replied to JeffersLos's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Somewhere there is a tree whose sole purpose is to replace the oxygen that the OP is wasting. He should go find that tree and apologize to it.- 63 replies

Why is North Thai Pho so much worse than Pho from the South
Smokin Joe replied to Yamu's topic in General Topics
I think that was a tongue in cheek post since the op says "I know everything about Pho" except that it is Vietnamese. -
Immigration archives - how to access?
Smokin Joe replied to sussex's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The basic date of the Nationality act is 2508. Amendment #5 is dated 2555. From Thai Council of State website: https://www.ocs.go.th/council-of-state/#/intro-page NATIONALITY ACT, B.E. 2508 (1965)** ** As amended up to the Nationality Act (No. 5), B.E. 2555 (2012).

Indonesia has not ratified the 1949 Geneva Treaty nor the 1969 Vienna. The UN Treaty database has the current listing of which countries ratified which treaty. Parties to 1969 Vienna Treaty Parties to 1949 Geneva Treaty That doesn't necessarily mean that they don't accept IDP's but they may require that they first be endorsed by the Indonesian licensing office in Jakarta. As already pointed out, the ASEAN Treaty allows the use of licenses issued by member countries (no IDP required) but possibly there could be an issue if the person has a ASEAN license, but the passport of a non-ASEAN country. Just speculation on my part.

Best umbrella brand/type for Chiang Mai Raining Season?
Smokin Joe replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in Chiang Mai
I would recommend a Swaine Malacca Prince of Wales for Men. Excellent quality and you can order online. https://swaine.london/products/malacca-prince-of-wales-for-men-black -
The nearest supermarket to the new Best is Foodland in Terminal 21 which is open 24/7. Going before the mall opens is a good time to visit. Although Best was never the best, and still isn't, the new location is super convenient for me so I'll be a regular customer.

Supreme Court Overturns Trump-Era Ban on Bump Stocks
Smokin Joe replied to Social Media's topic in World News
That is not correct. Fully automatic machine guns are legal in the USA. But they are very highly regulated and a PITA to buy and own. You just need to find a seller with a Class III license. Here is an example of a Miami gun shop with machine guns for sale https://dealernfa.com/ -
Your visa in the expired passport is still valid and you just need to show both passports when entering China. I don't believe a Chinese visa can be transferred. You would need to apply for a new one. If applying for a new visa you may be required to present your old passport so the valid visa in it can be cancelled . From China Embassy in USA: China Embassy in USA Q: I renewed my passport recently. I previously had a Chinese visa on my expired passport which is still within the valid period.Do I need to apply for a new visa? A: Please check whether there is any change of Name, Gender, Date of Birth and Nationality between the new and expired passports. If the information above has not changed and the purpose of your upcoming trip to China is consistent with the visa type, a new visa is not required. Please travel to China with both passports. If your personal information has changed or the purpose of your trip to China is different from the type of current visa, please apply for a new visa. From China Embassy in Thailand: China Embassy in Bangkok The Phuket Consular Office of The Consulate General of The People's Republic of China in Songkhla Vice Consul General and Head of The Phuket Consular Office: Ms. WANG HUIJUAN Add.: 96/69 Royal Place, By Pass Rd., Kathu District, Phuket, Thailand Tel. No. For Visa Application Inquires: 0066-76-304180 Fax:0066-76-304302 The Phuket Consular Office has been opened since Nov.6th 2014. The Chinese visa services is available now.

That is not according to Chang Classic Beer, that is some 3rd part website that is obviously wrong. Fat - 0g Carb- 0g Protein - 0g Not possible. It probably just indicates that the data is not available
