    Someone has to be carrying that stuff. I see 2 brands of it on the internet and they are both made in Thailand ! The first one is the Healthy Boy brand.

    Can't find who may carry those items though. Saw the Healthy Boy brand on Alibaba and the Jack Hua on a Vietnamese site (don't know if they ship or what).
    Can't find it (in English) on Lazada.

    Found similar items on some other sites, only to see that one was in Canada, one was in the USA (plus a listing on Amazon) and one site in Australia.

    Really irritating to order something and have it shipped here only to find it was originally made here !

    (Had that with a hard drive once. Took a PC from Thailand to Afghanistan. Ordered a new hard drive from a site in Canada. It arrive in Afghanistan, opened it and saw a "Made in Thailand" sticker on it. Bloody thing went around the world and ended up back in Thailand again when the job ended. Lucky they didn't charge me an import duty on it !)

    hi yes i also saw on internet talked to a few people but said they only send overseas lol so i asked were i can get here he replied i only sell over seas its sad that its made in Thailand and i cant find lol

  3. hi has anybody read on thai visa expert about becoming a permanent resident after 3 years of continuous stay in thailand is this true

    The minimum requirements to apply for Permanent residency is to have at least 3 years consecutive extensions issued from Thai Immigration, Holders of multiple NON-Immigrant visas can not apply. You must have 3 un-broken yearly extensions in order to qualify.

    Advantages and Benefits:

    It allows the holder to live permanently in Thailand, with no requirement to apply for an extension of temporary stay. In addition to the permanent residence book, an alien registration book will be issued, which is the equivalent of the ID card held by Thais.

    A permanent resident can have his/her name included on a house registration document (for example, if you buy a house on wife’s name. You can have your name on house registration in order not to lose your property no matter what the circumstance may be in the future)

    Obtaining a work permit is easier for a permanent resident than for a non-resident, but you still need to have a work permit if working.

    A permanent resident also has a number of other privileges such as, for example, being able to:

    • Buy a condominium without being required to transfer money from abroad
    • Apply for naturalization in accordance with the law concerned
    • Have Thai nationality granted to children who are born in Thailand
    • Become a director of a public company; and
    • Apply for an extension of stay or permanent residence for non-Thai family members

    The Residency Permit itself never expires, unless revoked. To be able to leave the country and return at will, though, you need to apply each year for a re-entry permit (endorsement) at 1,000 baht (multiple entries). If you don’t leave Thailand, you don’t need to have an endorsement done. Also, you must present yourself at the police station covering the area where you are resident once every five years for a stamp in your book. An alien with permanent residency status will be eligible to apply for Thai citizenship after 10 consecutive years.
