  1. Showering won't make a dent as water is practically free. AC can run 500 - 3000 Baht depending on how many units are on. You shouldn't pay any commission to anyone (that's the owner's problem) What's your budget per month?
  2. "Over 210,000 people have informed the Election Commission (EC) of their wish to run as a Senate candidate and the EC expects at least 100,000 candidates to run." More like, "the EC will allow 100,000 candidates to run". Why would 210,000 people inform the EC they wish to run and then suddenly 110,000 decide they don't want to? Farcical
  3. That's the first part that made my jaw dropped. It then dropped some more when later in the report it mentions that the case was dismissed by another court, which only resulted in his sentence being reduced? WTAF. So we've learned two bizarre things: 1) rape penalties are ridiculously light and 2) you can have a case dismissed but remain in prison.
  4. Was he prepared to pay for the promotion to his current rank though (not as expensive) or was it purely a merit promotion?
  5. I've never heard them claim that's it's higher, but they always dub it the "7 deadly days" to make the people think about driving safer. Labling some days as deadly isn't the same as saying they're more dangerous than other days.
  6. That link only references Thai people working abroad, not unemployed spouses using foreign spouse income (as is mentioned in the article).
  7. Interesting take, since the paragraph preceding this one states... How can you pay out on an outcome that has been officiated yet, if not for some sort of pre-arranged fixing?
  8. Does anybody have any insight into the veracity of the claims made in this article? Anecdotal reports on this forum used to point to GHB not wanting to have anything to do with foreigners. However, this article references loans being issued to Thai nationals abroad based on their foreign spouses income (which would be very handy). The GHB website itself does not seem to have this option, but according to some sources in Thai it is possible. https://amazingthaiproperty.com/en/38948/
  9. Because most of the brainwashed populace inherently believe that some individuals are literally above the law and have semi-deity status. They do not understand what a constitutional monarchy is. Many people forget that despite being "above politics" there were changes made to the constitution AFTER the referendum vote last time - totally illegal, but done by a god so it was overlooked.
  10. Not true at all. Gambling is not legal during a wedding or funeral (just because you see it happening doesn't mean it's legal) Gamblin is, however, legal at horse racing (which is indicative of how nonsensical many laws in Thailand are.
  11. It's just a typical Tulsathit Taptim word salad. Save your braincells and avoid reading his dribble in the future.
  12. What happened to reporting? Remember the "good old days" where pertinent information in an article would be included e.g. "Kick is a streaming service where users blah blah blah". You know, just a sentence to ensure that the readers actually understand the rest of the article. Also, are Jino and Johnny Somali the same person, or is the Johnny Somali paragraph a hard segue referencing yet more information not fully explained. The rule is: if your reader needs to use Google to understand most of your article, you've done a <deleted> job.
  13. You are indeed correct. Out of interest, can this be applied for at the port of exit, or does one need to go to immigration, get a ticket, and go through the whole tedious process where 4/5 people check the same documents before giving you the stamp?
  14. True, cheaper is not necessarily easier per se 👍. Now for Thai citizenship, it definitely is easier if married (especially for foreign women), but that's neither here nor there with regards to this thread.
