  1. In fact, last year, the I.O. told me to sign probably the same document and filled it out for me. This time, I was asked to do it by myself or with the help of anyone else..... I'm fare from being able to read official documents in Thai. Understanding them is completely another level again.
  2. Hi I recently applied for an extension of stay. At the end of the process, they gave me the following document in Thai (see attachement) to fill out. Anyone know this document? And what is it good for? And why is it in Thai only? As far I know, all the information on this document are already somewhere all the other documents I gave them. Sorry if this topic has been discussed already somewhere else.....
  3. ....he starts eating all the leftovers.... = a man with a lot of civil courage. They are all looking down at me when I'm doing that at home - and their friends too, but I don't have the "cochones" to do this in the public.... Sooo many people are starving in this world.
  4. I was thinking about that when posting this article, but I thought, Ujoe will intervene anyway, hahahaha. I just wonder if any of those immigration guys have the overview about all those changes....
  5. Section 38 might answer your question. https://library.siam-legal.com/thai-law/thai-immigration-act-temporary-stay-in-the-kingdom-sections-34-39/
  6. Hi I had the same problem with my Hitachi AirCon. I asked the experts here, what I can do to avoid something like that happens again and they told me, there is nothing I can do.... After they fixed it, I reopened the whole thing. On my board there is a small whole, where one can put the finger inside to open the board. This is the only way the Gecko could crawle in. I closed this whole - that's it. See attachement. The price for my board was about 5500 bath.
  7. I always thought, Crossy is untouchable ???? Well, I got a visit from immigration even 3month after the approval of my extension of stay for marriage visa without any notice, while I was learning Thai at school. I changed to retirement and it is such a relieve.....No endless admin and not wasting that much paper any longer. I always felt very sorry for the trees..... - maybe one day in 1000 years archoeologist may think that there must be a huge jungle where I'm living right now if I would stay if this insane paperwork.
  8. Normally I would agree, but in this case, it's not true. Switzerland is leading with sanctions against russia. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-03-07/russia-surges-past-iran-to-become-world-s-most-sanctioned-nation
  9. I made the same experience in Siem Reap 10 years ago with a little boy about 7 years old.... his English was amazing while my 16 years old nephew can't barely speak English while going to a very expensive private school with extra English lessons....
  10. ... ...I've told her to leave and move back home, I'll feed her. ... You surely are a good Stepfather and you are angry because of the situation. But there are things in life, you can not learn at Universities and life is bareley fair. A university degree doesn't grant anything. I was told by my mom, that I have to work twice as hard as others.... I have university degree and I always worked very hard just to learn the lessons in life, that there are people who don't have a university degree and some didn't seem to work at all, were so much more sucessfully than me - some of them were doing nothing else than networking all the day long... sometimes a brown nose is also very helpful for a career... But the real lesson I have learnt was, that if you get used to hard work, you will always find work and can survice somehow, while people with or without a university degree who are not willing to work are useless, because they always depend on the goodwill of others. I wish your step-daugther all the best and that she will make the right choice.
  11. As already said before, they can come everyday, wasting their time and the goverments money, but what makes me really angry is the fact, that I wasn't at home, when they where here. Assuming I would have a hard time with my wife and therefore she would tell them that I just went out "f..." my girl....blablablabla What do you think, what would happen? What do you think who they are going to trust and believe... Yeah, yeah, their rules, their games.....
  12. I was told at immigration, that the visite is only for the first application to get to know each other....And I'm living only 100m from the immigration office.... Never mind, this is not important...
  13. No, no, they can come everday....so I can learn more Thai for free....
  14. No one share the same experience until now? At least, I can see that some people are working for the 1'900 Bath fee....
  15. They told my wife that many "Farangs" do not tell their correct location...
  16. Hi, while I was at the Thai language school in the next bigger city - immigration made a random check at my home and asked my wife, if I live with her togehter (Btw: I renewed my "permission of stay" 3 month ago) and made some photos with her and the house - she even asked them to come the next day when I'm at home, but they didn't want to!!!. Anyone experienced the same in the past? (This methode rememberes me somehow the good old DDR with the Stasi-Methode.... scary stuff...)
  17. Reading books on paper makes me feel like typing on a typewriter - very classic. Nowadays, I wouldn't conclude any intelligence in this, just a little bit old-fashioned?
  18. I generally assume that other people are smarter than me until I have proven the contratry ???? Maybe your friend is glorifying his story. He slept with a prostitute and saw her pimp....
  19. "...More surprisingly, they are often delivered by their Thai husbands...." I have a hard to believe that Thai men are that stupide....Maybe your friend is not sober when telling you those stories. https://www.thaipbsworld.com/marital-infidelity-a-hard-and-illegal-habit-to-give-up-in-thailand/
  20. I have a hard time to understand, why the government has a problem with all these, after a court has decided in a case: "The pricing was set on an appropriate basis of socioeconomic status, and it benefits Thailand, so it therefore doesn’t count as discrimination.” I will never forget this...
  21. All this is just an excuse for some mismanagement and why some special people need some special treatment.
  22. According to my understanding, there shouldn't be any problem for him to enter Switzerland based on the vaccines here in Thailand: Link is published by the Swiss Government: https://www.bag.admin.ch/bag/en/home/krankheiten/ausbrueche-epidemien-pandemien/aktuelle-ausbrueche-epidemien/novel-cov/empfehlungen-fuer-reisende/quarantaene-einreisende.html#-440105700 Which COVID-19 vaccines allow entry to Switzerland? People who have received one of the following vaccines can enter Switzerland: Pfizer/BioNTech (BNT162b2 / Comirnaty® / Tozinameran) Moderna (mRNA-1273 / Spikevax / COVID-19 vaccine Moderna) AstraZeneca (AZD1222 Vaxzevria®/ Covishield™) Janssen / Johnson & Johnson (Ad26.COV2.S) Sinopharm / BIBP (SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (Vero Cell)) Sinovac (CoronaVac) COVAXIN® People who have been vaccinated with two different vaccines are considered to be fully vaccinated if: the vaccines used have been approved by the authorities in Switzerland (Swissmedic) and the EU (EMA) or are on the WHO emergency use list and they were administered in accordance with the regulations or recommendations of the state in which the vaccination took place. ....
  23. I would invest all that money in education. Less idiots would be on the road, less idiots would build bad roads, less idiots would invest in firms, that build bad roads....
