The dog should this...the owner should that...the law should be... Nothing will happen. Worst case scenario he gets aggro from the whole village and just moves to another village. Same has happened a few years ago when a similar farang owned dog disfigured a 3 year old toddler. The dog lives, the owner just moved villages and had the audacity to say the toddler "provoked" the dog and made it run to the street. It would take a very "important" victim to change something, not an ordinary child or an ordinary dog. Would have to be a child/dog belonging to a very wealthy and powerful family or a loved celebrity, only then some law might be changed.

That explains why the staff member issuing my IDP (in Rayong) was asking me which country I was going to visit. I got the 1968 one. Too bad there are 2 versions, I guess I'll have to go get another one if I ever intend to drive in Japan.

it's just like this

Well, they stopped it because people were cheating and using the extra meter for other stuff in the house. I do plan to start getting into solar at some point.

As someone already replied, PEA refuses to do it now. Which is understandable if their current meters are capable of handling home chargers.

My plan is to install this charger very close to the meter itself, so the idea is to get a dedicated wire coming out of the meter that will feed this setup (ELCB->socket->charger). In this case it's not really relevant what sort of wire is going into the house, correct?

That's great advice, thank you. The wires from the meter to the house are black I believe. Regardless, I'll do what you suggested and fit a dedicated beefy breaker/socket/wires straight out of the meter. PEA should've just said "you've got a 100A meter, it's more than enough for a standard car charger, have a nice day" instead.

No idea, the only label in the meter that suggests something says 5(100)A The meter model is EMS12J

Yes there is, but I heard and read that going from 2 phase to 3 phase would require major changes in the house electrical grid, which I want to avoid.

Getting my first EV here (booked, didn't confirm yet), they don't provide the charger but I don't mind to pay. We live in a home with 2 phases and the small amp meter. The lady at the dealership said it's simple and we could request at PEA for a 3 phase, a bigger meter (30/100A) or a separate meter just for the car. I found some meters on Homepro and they say in order to install it the home needs at least the 30/100A meter. Ok, sent wife off to PEA and they told her the only way to get approval for the 30/100A meter is to have the charger already installed, then the PEA technician will confirm that it actually needs a more capable meter. But Homepro (for obvious reasons) refuses to install the charger unless the meter meets the specifications. So it's a paradox. Can't install the charger without a 30/100A meter but can't get a 30/100A meter without a charger that demands it! How the hell am I supposed to get one then? Brown envelope?

Everyone know this. But these "arsonists" are not simple farmers you can simply fine them to stop. They're suppliers to billionaire industries that will lose big money if this burning stops. And every government knows well that is not a good idea to upset billionaires.

Why show an unrelated photo of Soi 6 which has almost no transgenders? The attack happened on Beach Rd apparently far down south from where Soi 6 is.

Can't afford 1300b for rent but has 10 guys ready on call to do their bidding without questioning even at new year's eve?

Wish it was that easy/reliable. Last 2 times I got an unspecified error that just told me to go there in person.

It's not a matter of how many, but a matter of "who". If you're a random farang, a poor villager/child or some unknown elder then nothing will happen, the owner will get away with a slap in the wrist and the dog might get away with it as well. In order for something to actually change it would take a respected/rich family's child or someone actually important (a politician for example) to be mauled/killed. But these people won't be riding a bicycle in a random soi so the odds are almost non existent.
