Sugar cane itself, or long bamboo staffs come to mind. They work for monkeys. They just might work for cane farmers.
They don't give a monkeys ...

You don't know me, or how I am. I never complained about LOS in my early decades there as it seemed like paradise to me. It only went bad after 2000 IMO, though Thaksin started the rot.
I remember the reason the Yaa Dong carts disappeared was that Thaksin stipulated that the herbal medicinal hooch had to be registered and sold as pharmacy type drugs
Used to be a good start to the evening a few 5B shots of 'Sua Sib Et Tua' and others .

You could be placed on overstay if you just remain in Thailand till the date indicated by the stamp.
You need to go to immigration office and have the error corrected.
Correct it happened to me and the immigration officer noticed I was referred to for overstay as I pleaded innocence and the overstay was 16 days and my flight soon departing I got away with just the overstay stamp and no fine .. I advise to visit your local imm office and get it sorted out asap

Obtain a tourist visa and enter at BKK.
Why bkk? Seems others are saying chiang mai
I was stopped at BKK on this visit by the head shaking Imm officer flicking through my passport pages, taken to the supervisor desk and shouted at and harangued for having 2 covid and TR visa extensions in the last 2 yrs .. told to get a long term visa not a TR visa and given contact details of a 'visa consultant'
I was entering on the 45 day + 30 days extension they did not like that one bit .. had to fill in a form to give extra personal details address phone email hotel and warned if I try to to enter without a visa again I could be Deported!!!!
So I would recommend entering at CNX next as I would be doing ... they obviously have something going on at BKK

Several days ago I had to show my onward flight at Stansted to board a Emirates flight without a visa
As for the immigration reception at BKK and 1 hour interrogation regarding past extended stays during the European winter months I will leave for another topic

There was a Thai style agogo that John owned just across from his place on the small soi, they had a couple of sofas and arm chairs, couple of girls wearing shorts and t shirts on the poles. That was approximately 1997.
They used to wear a lot less than shorts & t shirts during the soapy show
My mate who had met John at JP went into a Patong Go Go a few days later and was baffled as to why he was there .. "I'm his twin brother" uh ok ..
I was told at the time the 'Hi Hi So' who was upset with the Loh Kroh scene was a 'Male' and wanted it all shut down
So it's time to remove the John Place 20% discount card from my wallet then

It isn't rocket science to get it right regardless of LHD or RHD, I've driven both extensively. I wonder if it was a Chinese tourist in their LHD vehicle getting confused.
I've seen the Chinese tourists on scooters wandering to their 'right' side of the road around Pai until they realise they have to get back to the proper left side when a huge Hilux is about to wipe them out ..
A few years back some Isreali C*&4t in a rented 4x4 smashed into locals near Chiang Dao killing them after forgetting to drive on the left

Does any one know if Mae sai has scooter monthly rental ?
I used to rent a scooter for a few days from the Honda Dealer 'Greenwing' on the main road, you could try them
I also rented from a chap on Thetsaban 21 after the arcade on the left side but cannot see his place now on street view so I reckon Greenwing is your best bet

Odd that you can hear them walking in a concrete structure. I’ve never known a Thai to not take their shoes off when entering their home.
The reason I also rent on the top floor is that Thais stomp around at all hours with no thought whatsoever for the victims in the room below

The bombing was FAR away in Mae Sot. I think this should not affect the on-going efforts by the Myanmar and Thai officials to re-open the Tachilek - Mae Sai border crossing.
There has been several bomb attacks in Tachilek this year

I don't know why people hit gold shops. This is like the third heist in as many months up here in Lamphun and the cops always catch the robbers.
Look at the lack of security, it's an easy target.
Getting away with it is another thing altogether due to stupidity and grasses mainly.
Yes get caught so quickly as the morons forget that all Thai urban streets are covered by CCTV

In Chiang Mai 60B at a barber shop most places have a price list written in Thai .. I let the barber know I can read the correct price and tell him that is what I will pay
If the Falang can not read the price list it will be 100B+

With no Chinese to feed them they should be reducing in numbers anyway.
I'm in CM and I know of 2 premises nearby where some nutty local is feeding them, pigeons are now wandering about on the Sois and roads in my neighborhood and a few are getting splattered by drivers who will not slow down to avoid killing them .. unlike myself
