Misplaced Passport.
Hi there, I live between my house in Bangkok and my condo in Pattaya. I need to do a 90 days report by 01 July but I"ve misplaced my passport. I'm in Pattaya now so I must have misplaced my passport at my Bangkok house. Can I do a 90 days report using the passport and visa data on my laminated copy? If not can this report be done online? Thanks. -

Crime Drug Dealer Shot Dead After Knife Attack on Police During Pursuit in Nonthaburi
Picture courtesy of Matichon. A 34-year-old suspected drug dealer was fatally shot by police after a dramatic chase and violent confrontation in Nonthaburi province on the evening of 10 June. The incident occurred around 19:30, when patrol officers from Mueang Nonthaburi Police Station attempted to stop a man suspected of possessing illegal narcotics. The suspect, later identified as Mr Rattawat, also known as “Ae Sai Ma”, fled on a Honda Wave 125 motorcycle, leading police on a high-speed pursuit. Officers followed the suspect from Tiwanon Road through several intersections until he veered into Soi Wat Chomphuwek, in Tha Sai Subdistrict, Mueang District. Attempting to evade capture, the suspect lost control of his motorcycle after hitting a speed bump and crashed in front of a factory. As police approached, Mr Rattawat attempted to flee on foot while carrying a black shoulder bag and a plastic bag containing large quantities of yaba (methamphetamine pills) and crystal meth. When officers caught up with him, he drew a knife and tried to stab one of them. Sergeant Nattawat Ketkaew, one of the pursuing officers, shouted at the suspect to drop the weapon. When the suspect ignored the command and attempted to lunge again, Sgt Nattawat fired in self-defence, hitting the suspect. Officers immediately administered first aid and called emergency medical services. Despite being rushed to Phra Nang Klao Hospital, Mr Rattawat succumbed to his injuries. At the scene, police recovered the knife used in the attack, the black bag, and plastic-wrapped narcotics. His damaged motorcycle, bearing a Pathum Thani licence plate, was found 10 metres away from the point of arrest. Police Corporal Nakarin Panan, the officer nearly stabbed during the altercation, credited his narrow escape to a Buddhist amulet and a protective charm made from his mother’s tooth, both of which he wore around his neck. Prior to the incident, both officers had received intelligence about a planned drug handover in the area and had been patrolling in response. Adapted by Asean Now from Matichon 2025-06-12 -

Are high end smartphones worth the money (to you)?
You are almost accidentally correct. Truly wealthy people can buy what they want, but usually just buy what they need. They can afford to get the pretentious aholemobile paid upfront in full, but usually drive something more common and practical. Pretty much the opposite of 'rich' people that feel the need to drive something more flashy and expensive and usually on payments. Often living paycheck to paycheck, not saving as much as they should be. When they travel to places like Thailand staying in nice hotels, overpaying for everything, and looking down on people with more modest travel budgets, they are often referred to as "short term millionaires"
