Indeed he can celebrate his second birth. Obviously not touched two lines simultaneously or any grounded object like a lightning rod. About 11000 Volt would have burned him to ashes. You can hang with one arm on the line and no shock like the birds resting. Local PEA does many jobs on live wires.

Don't copy Thai driving style!

Not alone on beach rd.

Retirement, Khon Kaen: Never needed any map, GPS etc. for retirement ext. But seems some offices have their own requirements. STM 11 not req. 800k: Bank book update same day. Many years day before was Ok here. Not anymore. One year statement same day makes no sense. Practically undoable with Bangkok Bank. (only max 6 months on the spot). And statement covers until day before issue anyway. For 12 month transfer not relevant. Just cover the transfers (common sense required though 😁).

Confused. Deleted.

As I noticed from others on my last visit to KK immigration they now always require a one year statement. Bank book not sufficient. @DrJack54 @Tod Daniels

Right hand? Never took notice of that and no idea about the meaning. Some internal stuff. So far the 2nd column from left (CODE) was relevant. Just checked: for me at least with WISE transfer the bank book has become irrelevant for proof! The last transfers from Nov and Dec are simply "TRN"! As previous post says: get a blank statement! For your personal use you can do the download/mail with the app. Row looks like: Thai text translates as above (editing on the phone with images has become a mess)

RIP to the deceased. Gruesome end of the dream holiday. Horrible attempt to speed away nearly hitting and killing more people. Another proof how you can die on Thailands roads without ever touching a wheel. So often. What to do with this p.o.s ? Volvo. Obviously not from the peasant caste.

In sharp contrast to international weather forecast centers. Steady rise from next week. We will see. European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts:

The unavoidable babble. No such thread without.

Pattaya News Facebook from yesterday:

Conflicting, don't you think: This prohibition applies to all election constituencies within SAO jurisdiction

Same to me. Second time I had to resort to smaller bottle as the usual 2l was out.

Important sentence overlooked. Not nationwide. Not here. But where? Very particular sub districts. Less affecting than it sounds?

The good news for me: roating speakers on pickups up and down the village will pause for a while. The noise for national elections next month will be much worse 🫣 The loudest and frequent here was some #3. #5 Pheu Thai not even needs much campaign and will be elected. My guess 😁 These speaker campaigning with not much more than roaring a number shows the level of democratic development.

It has always been in the past at least for visit on military areas, ships etc.

Ok got it. So it's definitely individual problems.

Thanks. That's what I did yesterday and hope with the new TM30 it will be fixed. Will know only end of March.

So many complaints about 90 day report online not working. Who had success in the last time since about December last year? What do people mean with not working? Can not login/submit or result rejected? Please specify date and your responsible office.

Report forgets to mention: off limits to any foreigners.

Today at KK immigration arrived about 9:15:AM. Was worth. Not crowded like 26 Dec. When leaving about 10 AM the parking had filled up a bit. All 5 desks occupied. Asked for TM30 and 90 day. Had my wife sign the necessary copies and application for TM30. To my surprise I was sent to the 90 report room which last time was not for me (Lao.. only). Don't try to understand. Less than 15 minutes there and done with new address report slip (TM30) and next 90 day due April 7. Will try online March 24. If reject I will use postal mail. Side notes: again this female agent with a shoebox full of Lao passports. She is greeted with wai and walks straight in to the office boss room.

Nice try 🤣

By theory: some sites claim that even notes from series 9 (after WWII) are still valid. My memory goes back to series 14. Series 15 and 16 should be accepted at shops. 16 (last Rama IX, Bhumiphol) still found occasionally in circulation. Any time you can deposit/exchange at banks. https://www.bot.or.th/en/our-roles/banknotes/History-and-Series-of-Banknote-And-Commemorative/banknotes-series.html (don't ask me why these "links" not actually work)

What's this "XQ-VPN" app? They make it sound as if this is needed for use.
