I've had co-workers who have two U.S. passports because they have to visit facilities in Malaysia and in Israel. It's been several years, but my recollection is that the Malaysians will deny entry if they see an Israeli stamp in your passport. (Or was it the other way around?)

Oh, that can't be! We are told daily from many posters about Thailand masterful, world-class Covid response. It's among the best in the world.
It is very unusual in Thailand that anything fall behind schedule as Thais are world renown for punctuality.
A veritable hub of punctuality

Snowflakes of today are using their own context rather than the time context that the books were written. IMHO it is they who are wrong.
You can overwrite history which is what they are trying to do, to sanitise history to their way of thinking, because they KNOW better than the people who lived the history at the time.
What they cannot do and t really annoys them is to eradicate the parts of history that they don't like and replace it with the history that THEY like.
They would not be who they are today, 'knowing' what they know without the past that got them there.

My wife says that it may be they believe they were married in a previous life, so this is a symbolic way of reuniting them.

cannot really fault TA at all here
they must warn their users of the consequences of leaving a negative review
especially when there is evidence they could face legal action from specific hotel owners or management, whilst on holiday or travelling
most people are not generally clued up on many laws in the foreign countries they visit.
the hotel in question did really shoot themselves in the foot on this occasion
it will likely be a very costly lesson for themI think that to be fair, they should mention that this can happen anywhere in Thailand, not just this hotel. People need to be aware and doing this would also soften the blow for this particular property. (IMHO)

There's the official position...and then there's what the people actually think. And then, there's probably with a lot of variation in the popular sentiment, like on most topics.

I heard a film crew was in town to film an episode of Billions revolving around this riveting story...
I wonder if we'll see the return of Dawg the Bounty Hunter.

We loved Still Game, The Crown, (Chewin' the Fat too, although more skit-based). Just starting Spy, Designated Survivor and Sleepy Hollow. Murdoch is now only on DVD.. great series.

Not sure if this is what you're looking for. I've used 50 cal. ammo cans from the army surplus store, with foam rubber glued to all inner surfaces, cut to fit camera and lens. They're easy to strap down to something and waterproof. (Rafted the Colorado with one.)

Be REALLY careful. Many years ago, we had a guy who brought his son, who went up the ladder and fell off the 2-story roof, broke his back.

21 best virus and pandemic movies.....
https://www.glamour.com/gallery/best-virus-movies
One of my favourite movies:
Outbreak (1995)
An absolute classic starring Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo, Morgan Freeman, and Donald Sutherland, Outbreak centers on a group of contagious-disease experts who work to minimize and eliminate an airborne virus that’s wreaking havoc on a small California town. This one has also seen an increase in rentals in light of coronavirus.
Yes, Outbreak! We jut watched it, streamed on Netflix in the US.

15 pages. Some very interesting insights. For example, one might think of wristwatches when reading page 7. (Originally 1253).

Note: I found some articles at this source were behind a paywall, but this one displayed okay. (It did not 'download' but 'Print as PDF worked). Hoping it works for you.

2 blocks from my home in Oregon, USA; she was visiting a grade-school chum (from Thailand), who had married a farang and moved here.

I'd be circumspect. Not just 'not declaring it to the authorities' but in general. You never know when someone may lose face and/or want you out of the way. That said, best of luck!

Innovation requires critical thinking and that isn't allowed culturally because it causes loss of face. Hammered in from birth, thus preserving the hierarchy of power via collective mindset.

My guess is that you want to use Borax. It kills all kinds of insects. When building it's a good idea to get a puffer bottle and dust the framing of the walls before closing them up, to prevent ants and termites. Sealed up like that, it can last for years.

Lack of accountability. (driven by priority of 'face' and institutionalized by anti-defamation laws)

Can't vote......Not enough options.
Agree.. we need to be able to vote for multiple reasons.

I can't find it either; was hoping to find one with members' photos, like years ago on ThaiVisa.
