Immigration warns homeowners they have 24hrs to report foreign guests
Nothing new and if you stay in Thailand on Multiple Entry Visum after every bordercrossing you landlord or wife ( when you not have a yellow housebook ) have to register you to. I had no idea about this til last year. Immi visited us and told my wife very politly that she have to register me after each borderrun.

Funnily enough I went to my local shop 2 weeks ago and found a new brand of cider called Sydney Bay which is as nice as magners if not better as I need ice in magners this Sydney bay I can sip straight out the bottle. It's no where near as sweet and I find after a skinful of magnets my stomach hurts a bit. The mrs complained the next day as she was hanging hard was shocked as she is normally very good but cider new to her. Anyway best part this cider was 25 baht a bottle. Likely just a promo price. Seriously it was nice.
Oho that sounds .... Where is your local shop and why havn't ask where they bought it. Would be nice to give this information to the public. 25 Baht/bottle . How small they are ?

I applied for my annual extension of my Non o visa in Korat on June 21st and was told that the Korat office does not require the new form you are talking about.
I got the impression that they did not care for the idea of the new form being used in some other offices and will not require it if they can avoid it.
There was only one form to be filled out that was not required last year.
It is a form stating that you understand the consequences of overstaying your visa and only requires your signature.
As usual, the Korat Immigration office is being as cooperative and efficient as possible.
In many ways, we are lucky to live in the area we live in.
Lucky there. In Sisaket they know and you have to give a lotof information. Mothers Name ,Fathers Name, Kopie from you Landlords ID Copy the renalcontract, Bankaccount, Email, Socialnetworks and on and on and on. Just happend to a friend for his one year extension.

Is there a price list somewhere for beer prices at Leo's?
Would be nice to know how his prices stack up against wishbeer and other suppliers.
Just an idea , why not visit him in Sisaket or contact him here http://www.leossisaket.com/ or there https://www.facebook.com/LEOSSISAKET/
Yes, thanks for that.
I did check his website. Very nice website it is too.
I couldn't find the prices for the beers and ciders. Only the food.
Why would someone not list prices on a website?
All prices are there : http://www.leossisaket.com/#!menu/orpzc

Isaan Maps
in Isaan
I get the map coming up. Maybe my "porno filter" is switched on???????This is the definitive map for now. i decided to modify the look of the map. Do you find this one more clear and easier. Added more POI and rearranged some of them in the right position. And if anyone wants to print or use the map in their websites i have no problem with that.
The map link is: http://postimg.org/image/xh2c8iejn/full/
Sorry but I think that link is gone. When I click on it I get only 5 pictres from some girls but no maps.
I know its a year ago and all was perfect with the map but know it's gone again. Pictures from some girls but no map. Any chance to get the map back ?

As harsh as it seems, I have experience the same silliness. It's evidenced in the crappy thai soaps where the bad guys/girls seem to frequently dress in black &/or have darker skin.
Off topic maybe. But my experience based upon ladies comments, is that Isaan ladies are the "Negroes " of Thailand.My wife never has and I doubt ever will drink alcohol.
She is not from "Isaan" but would tell you where to go if you attempted to "persuade" her.
So , what is the problem , if your wife , just happened to be from Issan .?
There is so much prejudice , against Issan ladies , why ?
Please enlighten , the uneducated , why you and your wife have this anti Issan , attitude .
Mostly poor, uneducated, and very dark skin.
The do not represent the desire of many of these ladies to be white and hiso looking.
PS: I personally like the Isaan ladies as I like darker skin and feel they are more real and down to earth.
Crazy but true.
Question ? Where does it start to be a " Good Isaan Lady " or not who wlll make the definition and by the way nice to read : it's old but nothing changed :
Isan women drinking too much booze | Bangkok Post: news
Isan women drinking too much booze
- Published: 10/05/2012 at 12:00 AM
- Newspaper section: News
More than half of northeastern women drink alcohol regularly, both during festivities and everyday life, according to a civic group survey.
Out of the 400 women surveyed in five Isan provinces, 59% said they regularly drink beer or liquor.
Also, 15% of them insisted they were not alcoholics, said Suphaphon Thongsu, director of the Foundation for Community Soul, which conducted the survey.
They cited a range of reasons for drinking, including social gatherings to the ease of buying alcohol at village shops with no closing hours.
Most like drinking beer and lao khao, or white liquor, which is most popular among the elderly, especially during parties and cultural events, according to the poll, which was highlighted at a seminar on a campaign for reducing alcohol consumption among women at the Rajvithi Home for Girls in Bangkok.
"A shocking finding was that women aged between 50 and 60 years drink every morning and night without caring about the impact on their health," said Ms Suphaphon, adding that over-consumption of alcohol is dangerous.
The intake of 9.6 grammes of alcohol a day can lead to alcoholism and greater amounts can put drinkers at high risk of accidents, said Ms Suphaphon.
Also, most cases of violence in families result from alcohol abuse.
A women's rights advocate linked the alcohol addiction to Thailand's male-dominated society. Many upcountry women have small roles and almost no means for social expression. As a result, they drink alcohol to help "release pressure" during celebrations, considered as their space for expression, said Chadet Chaowilai, director of the Women and Men Progressive Movement Foundation.
He called on the Public Health and Social Development and Human Security ministries to provide venues for women to complain, express their views and initiate creative activities.

Are you the Grammar Police?"The farang and thai food is well presented "
How can food be a Western caucasian, or did you mean "foreign food"?
What a fun job. Correct and Serve.
What a shame you don't understand the difference between grammar and word choice, (or correct capitalization).
I love my Kindergarden and the arguments about words. GREAT !!! Welcome in Thailand nothing else to argue.

Thai or Vietnam not come to Europe as long stay tourist or on penssion and not spend more money even thanJust a question. If that happenend in Europe / australia/ S these shops will help or have service in Thai / Vietnamese or else in their language. I doubt ,Just learn a bit Thai it's easy
the average workers .
Its happened.
Not costumers follow needs sellers.
Look in Chiang mai. Many change in few yaer. Many write chines lang
In Pattay often can look russian lang.
And etc..
And its happened not only in Thailand.
Excuse me, disagree with your justification. I am sure that in Berlin, London, New York, Sydney and other middle-sized cities in Europe or America are more Thai or Vietnamese Spreaker living there than English speakers in Mukdahan. All speak of the foreigners they are to be integrated in our home countries and even have to learn our language. You all the same people are here foreigners and expect that everyone here have to speak English (a foreign language). Who off you have ever tried to learn seriously something as the language of your host country, ?

German Beer
in Isaan
Wow, thanks for the heads up. Last time we spoke was in person, early January I think. Is the venerable N&N's closing for good, or are they just off for a while?
Either way, I think a trip to Surin then Sisaket is in order.
Is closing down in Surin. May he goes back to Nong Khai I don't know.
-
There are, yes- mostly to be found in the larger cities and towns, English teaching. Out in the ban nok you will mostly find the old crusties. Surin, given the size of the town, has a surprisingly large younger farang scene. Check out the Reggae Bar, and no doubt you can find out more from there. But it isn't Bangkok, and neither would i want it to be.
Agree but do not forget Sisaket too. Including our new Bar in Sisaket, Leo's Sisaket, a very nice guy about 27 - 28 I'm not sure, Nice place and a wholesaler for Cider ( Thatchers ) plus a Minimart with a lot of english stuff , Ckeck out on FB Leo's Sisaket )

German Beer
in Isaan
^ Thanks for the info- but we already get our Weihenstephan from Nobby! A few other things too (he does some very nice Euro style sausages). Known the guy years, since he had his business up in Nong Khai, and we're pleased to give him business. But would love to be able to offer a few more imported beers, bring down the price a bit, and of course still turn a buck. Well, at least the wife- not like I see any of it.
I'll have a chat to him about maybe bundling a few imports together, thus upping the volume, and see if we can do a bit better on price. A possible alternative might be to look for some master distributors/ importers in Bkk. Business is business.
re PM- maybe my post count is below the minimum to receive a PM? Not sure. Anyway, I've decided to become a bit more active in the Isaan sub-forum, after several years as a lurker, so it will hopefully rise to PMable levels soon.
I don't know whe you talked to him last time but he is leaving soon. I can imagine that there is a good chance for some s[ecial prices now, For sure the new What Dunkel Weltenburgen. ANDMoose cider I;m not sure but I think yes,

German Beer
in Isaan
^ Cheers- I will mention it to her. Good excuse to visit Sisaket, anyway! For the record, I'm her husband- but most of you know that already. It grieves me that she has to push out a beer at 255bht- but she makes less mark-up on it than leo or chang, and that's the truth. I think a small gantry of imported beers is in order- but how to get them for the right price, here in the wilds of Ubon?
There is now a domestic cider being produced in Thailand, by a subsidiary of the Red Bull crowd, and it is selling well. Nice to be able to offer one at a half decent price. It's maybe not a Thatchers, or Gaymers etc, but it's quite OK.
I tried send you a PM , can not. Why not visit Surin where is the main Distributor for many German Beers in Esarn.
Why you not contact Nobbi in Surin who is the Weihenstephan and other German Beer Distributor in Esarn Contact him on FB https://www.facebook.com/NN-Restaurant-Surin-779176385529999/ or visit his homepage http://nnrestaurant.de.tl/ there you can find his phonenumber too
Moose cider there too
Prayut calls for calm over rice crisis

Prayut calls for calm over rice crisis ; how the farmers can do it . They depend on the money to feed their families, pay the (free ) schools for the kids, paying the harvesters, vertelizer and so on.These people do not have your annual income Mr. Prayut. You want to help the people than use your power and order the greedy rice millers to pay fair prices.
