But what about the loss of "benefits" some Thai officials will have to endure with the deportation of foreign criminals?Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:58:13 +0000This is just the start. A part of Labour's insistence on us all having ID cards. Little by little it will lead to no one, adults included being able to use any part of the internet without giving ID. No privacy or encryption for the public. But like many ill thought out plans, it will have unintended consequences, and there will likely be future data breaches where people will have their personal data stolen because it is being stored on internet companies servers. Already, Australia's version is proving this, and now other countries are also jumping on the bandwagon.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:55:31 +00002045? That is optimistic.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:54:54 +0000I don’t think there will be a deal. Israel has been “ordered” by Trump to stop hitting Lebanon. Israel is damned if it does and damned if it doesn’t. Hit Lebanon, lose America. Don’t hit Lebanon, lose these wars with Iran AND Lebanon. This will push Israel into something clandestine, activity they excel at. I’m not sure what will happen, but I’m sure Israel will be behind it.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:54:42 +0000Any foreigner who retains an agent to "induce'" an Immigration official to waive the nominal extension of stay requirements may be in conflict with Sec. 144 Thai Penal code: Section 144 of the Thai Penal Code covers active bribery and corruption related to public officials. It makes it a crime to offer, give, or promise property or any other benefit to a public official or assembly member to illegally influence them to perform, delay, or neglect their official duties.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:54:01 +0000More White House generated fake news?Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:51:26 +0000DOJ says it has superseding indictment against Southern Poverty Law Center The superseding indictment does not contain any new charges or name new defendants from the original version, which was returned in April. In the prior version, the indictment alleged that an SPLC employee who opened the bank accounts in question made "false or misleading statements." But the Supreme Court last year, in Thompson v. USA, ruled that the bank fraud statute at issue only criminalizes false statements — and not statements that are misleading but not false. The new version of the indictment no longer includes the words "or misleading" in reference to the statements made to banks.

A reporter asked Vance "The Iranians are saying they're going to have access to a $300B reconstruction fund. True or false?" Vance replied "That's the sort of thing they could have access to."Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:48:14 +0000India is too chaotic and too noisy. There is no real escape, except up in the mountains. How is the hygiene in India? And can you travel freely almost everywhere and still feel safe? If India was an alternative, I would have chosen Fortaleza in Brazil instead. Safety wise, it is not especially good, but the stabile climate and clean air year around would outweigh India for me. I would also choose it over the Philippines, Cambodia, and even Vietnam.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:45:53 +0000Thank youWed, 17 Jun 2026 00:45:30 +0000That’s some achievement when the rest of the world thinks the average yank is (how to say this politely) a bit dim.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:45:05 +0000The sooner the west admits we are at war with militant Islam the better. They are already bold enough to state in the UK,”we are not here to take part,we are here to take over” How much more bleeding obvious has it to be?Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:40:04 +0000Agreed. I find it incredible that sane, educated men would even consider the possibility of the existence of god. The whole idea is preposterous. Regarding proof however, there is proof that religious texts supporting the existence of god is incorrect. Every religious text said to be divine is incorrect too. These texts, purportedly divine, were written by man and described scholastic thinking of the time period which scientifically has been disproven today. We know that humans and apes share a common ancestor, two branches of the same evolutionary tree. There is no room for the bible’s explanations in any of that. Whilst I am certain god does not exist, I am less certain of some other examples of post-death, pre-birth events, but I’m sure there is no god in those either.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:39:37 +0000Should not be required. Bank Book + photocopies of pages sufficient + Bank Letter. Note: CW increasingly shifting towards 12 month bank statement. For the sake of 200b I would provide bank statement. The bank statement and bank letter can be obtained days prior to applicationWed, 17 Jun 2026 00:34:15 +0000But you're not the bar owner. Why are you meddling in how bar owners should compensate their staff? This is how it works in most bars. Why not open your own bar and then run it how you like instead of meddling in other people's business?Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:34:05 +0000I look forward to reading your paper on inflation that includes empirical evidence.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:33:10 +0000When the IO asked for the photocopy of the yellow book, I handed it over (but was not asked for the original). No, I didn't offer the yellow house book with the usual papers handed to the IO at the beginning of the meeting. I had never needed to show it (and give a photocopy) over the years at CW, but I had read a note here on asean.com that they were asking for that now, as well as for a photocopy of the pink ID card, so I came armed with both. When the IO asked for the photocopy of the yellow book, I handed it over (but was not asked for the original). They did not ask for the pink ID card,. If I may, the yellow house book (and the blue one) was a piece of cake at my district office. You show them the deed (chanote) and sale contract (stamped by the Land Office), and you get both books. The pink card was a bit trickier and required a Thai witness, but they issued that to me, too. Every official document with my name on it makes me feel more secure here in LOS.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:33:09 +0000you should know. you been to 60 provinces.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:31:01 +0000Please explain why Trump is a fascist or are you once again simply parroting MSM/leftist rhetoric.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:30:47 +0000The birthrate is not slowing down in the awful continent.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:26:59 +0000Nobody seems to know what Nazism is, or what it is to be a Nazi. There are plenty of videos of interviews with Nazis from WW2, the brainwashing they had and the people it made them. Different kettle of fish to the last 50 years or so.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:26:18 +0000Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:25:02 +0000That's how the legal system in Thailand works. In large measure, there is no action until there is a complaint.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:24:19 +0000I've seen taco seasoning in many stores here in Thailand.Wed, 17 Jun 2026 00:23:24 +0000
