Import products are on short supply? Off topic, but a lot of imported meat/sausage products seem to be banned for fear of swine fever. Next week in Pattaya and excited to compare.
-
Doubt it. It's a German brand with a long history stemming from "Bahlsen" (99/100 Germans know this name). AND imported, quite sure. But in the global world I bet on nothing. Milka from Australia? ????

The thing is a support for the overpass under construction. If it's completed will you fear to drive under? Even if it's Thailand, do you believe a big construction company just lays a loose chunk of concrete over a motorway? Fear a major earthquake which would be needed to bring this down? Typical social media buzz where a mosquito can make an elephant.

Elon Musk reportedly fires top Twitter executives as he takes over company
KhunBENQ replied to webfact's topic in World News
Don't ask me. It's people who buy stocks and blow up the value. Tesla more "valuable" than a few major car companies combined. -
Lot of old planes and not the best record regarding incidents (not necessarily fatal). Last one: runway excursion in Chiang Rai in July this year. Blocked the airport for five days. Good for a lot of posts here. Some "interesting" stuff here: https://www.aeroinside.com/airline/nok-air# (not all are NokAir's faults)
-
Yes and for every other case avoid NokAir.

KhunBENQ replied to webfact's topic in World News
That's what he spends 44 billion on. Will he be the next US vice president? (or does his origin exclude that) -
0nline 90 day issue with netzero email account
KhunBENQ replied to Toolong's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That would match my experience with the website. Kind of zombie. But still some offers dated 2022. -
0nline 90 day issue with netzero email account

Same to me and a somewhat obscure website. Can't really find what and where they are (poking around on their website, no proper imprint. "services" site empty). The problem from the OP is likely created by the mail interface of this service. Blocking/hiding attachments? Blocking stuff from Thai IP? I had/have even worse problems with a major German mail provider. Since long using yahoo or Gmail. I would much recommend the friend sets up some other mail account. -

Heard about 44 million in stock options. For San Francisco just enough -
That's the only option with one flight that I would accept. About 200 km on the road, 3 to 4 hours?
-
More than 800 km on the road! Never for me, old man! Not a second thought for me. Morning flight to Don Mueang with AirAsia (8:30 or 10:00). DMK to BFV with AirAsia at 12:35 (PM).

And you assume that they are on and working? And not the frontlight exchanged with a red bulb as it looks cool. Backlights at motorcycles: my estimate 10% dark. Riders in the night with proper gear, reflective stuff? 0.1% (one in a thousand). Up here completely unlit motorbikes are a daily observance.

Thief steals 200,000 baht from local grocery store in Chonburi
KhunBENQ replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
You think such insurance exists? Stealing cash from an unsecured box? It's still amazing how naive/careless banks, shops and other businesses handle cash. A simple box, in a drawer and the like. Gold shops with an open counter. They still believe living in a safe country. Compare to countries where guards with rifles/guns are at every major business . -
Germany plans to legalise recreational Cannabis.
KhunBENQ replied to MrMuddle's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
Making nice plans and putting aside that it violates EU law, the holy word I just wait it to be wiped away by the superior judges. -
WISE transfer receipt, useful?
KhunBENQ replied to KhunBENQ's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
My Euro transfer to Bangkok Bank does. I select expenses for long stay in Thailand as the purpose. Might make a difference -
800k Thb Pattaya Immigration
KhunBENQ replied to Adelphi's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I have put the example in a separate thread: https://aseannow.com/topic/1275989-wise-transfer-receipt-useful/ -
For WISE users only. Is it common knowledge that you can download a three page "transfer confirmation"/receipt for WISE transfers? Will it be good enough as proof for money coming from abroad? Never had to try. Screenshots from the desktop website. Cropped white space and footer with the company details. How to: select the transfer. Click on the 3-dots menu and select "Get PDF receipt". Download the PDF and see these real life three pages created from a former transfer. Click on image to see full size. PAGE 1 PAGE 2 PAGE 3

It's a three page PDF. When I am at the desktop I will do a pixelated example -
800k Thb Pattaya Immigration
KhunBENQ replied to Adelphi's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Even if not required... WISE has a somewhat hidden function to produce a PDF with the transfer details. Clearly shows foreign amount and amount of Thai Baht credited to your account. -
How to do border run from Koh Samui or Koh Phangan?
KhunBENQ replied to parafareno's topic in Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao
? Is that a typo? Koh Larn? The little island off Pattaya? An immigration office there? -
I have entered an example to the TIMATIC system which airlines use to check the "clear to board". https://skyteam.traveldoc.aero/ She is clear to board to Thailand even when passport expires between departure and return flight. What I can't tell: would the airline check/comment the status for the return flight at boarding in the US? Probably not, as letting her fly TO Thailand is OK and does not affect the airline.
