Suvarnabhumi Visa Exempt - Change of Tactic Applied
I do not. Never did. When I worked in Bangkok, I had a DL and a BOI WP. Now that I only visit BKK once a month on Visa Exempt, I wouldn't dream of pulling out proof of residence at Arrivals to support my short term entry. That would be counter intuitive. Kind of like a Thai lady showing a London based job offer letter to the UK Embassy to apply for a tourist visa. -

Reasons of change

Trump lost the respect of veterans – including me. He's a risk to our democracy.
Well, you should enlighten them if you aren't afraid of cancellation. Give 'em slack: veterans are subject to fake news just as much as the average loony liberal. That's why those you know think Biden did a great job with the Afghan withdrawal and think Walz really did retire as a Command Sergeant Major, served in a combat zone, and didn't cut and run out on his men.🙂 -

Horrific Bus Fire in Thailand Sparks National Debate on Safety
How is there even a debate to have? It's so obvious what the cause was; corruption and lack of safety. Is one side of the debate really saying that this is OK? -

Harris Lies, Americans Die. Illegal Aliens are more Important
I suspect that the damage from Helene, when finally tallied, will exceed Katrina. Not sure about Milton, though. If it hits areas already hit by Helene, no idea how much damage that will cause. -

Bringing Meat/Cheese into Thailand
Under NO circumstances should you even consider bringing in ANY meat into LOS, especially if you live there, unless you have deep pockets & lots of $. In the 25+ years I lived in Chiang Mai, I always brought in cheese & all manner of things I missed from home, but no meat. Entering through C Mai airport, I was seldom searched anyway. On one of my last trips before we left LOS for good I had cheese in a cooler box but couldn't find a cooler block to put in with it, so I put in two frozen sausages I found in the freezer in Oz, to keep the cheese cool. Although they usually waved me through at C Mai airport, that day they made me put my big bag through the x-ray. It was then that I saw the notice on the wall behind the machine and, all the penalties for bringing in ANY kind of meat ! They detected the sausages straight away, made me open the bag & I sh*t myself. One officer brought it to the attention of his senior, who asked me in English what it was and why I had done it, pointing to the sign on the wall. Luckily I speak pretty fluent Northern Thai & explained that my Thai wife had "asked me to buy her two chilli snags" & that "I am afraid of my Thai wife, so I always obey her" ! He laughed & shook his head, saying to the others in Thai, words to the effect that "it was only a small amount" & he let me go. Lucky they thought I really was scared of my wife. It clearly is not worth the potential risk ($$$) to bend this law.... -
