#5272722 Receipt Of Notification - 90 Days Report

Posted thaihome on 2012-05-04 11:46:27

- passport
- arrrival card
- old 90 day report slip

especially if it is your first 90 day reprot, also take proof of address with you (utillity bill will do).

Jus to avoid any confusion, you do not need your #3, the old 90 day report slip if you have re-entered the country sometime in the previous 90 days.

On leaving, I have had the immigration officer keep the old slip, hand it back to me, leave it in the passport or throw it in the trash. If you are leaving, it becomes worthless. If handed back to me or left in the passport, I throw it away in the next trash bin a run across while going to my gate.

Hardly combustive, it will self heat if it gets damp and release chlorine gas. Such a release in a sealed container could cause a pressure explosion.
calcium hypochlorite is sold in many shops as powdered bleach.

But it does become combustable when mixed with certain household cleaning chemical, which I am not going to name as some moron will try it....

Children doing a mans job. The level of technical expertise in Thailand is scary. So many people are doing jobs they are not qualified for, or do not understand. I was speaking to someone the other day, who was referring to the lack of expertise when it comes to getting a question answered about wine, at a restaurant in a 5 star hotel. They are charging 300 baht per glass, and the only details they understood was that there were two kinds of wine in the world. Red and white. Only the GM of the hotel had any detailed knowledge about varietals. How about water management? When the US Marine Corp offered early last year to teach the Thai engineers about water management techniques they were told that Thailand will never suffer major floods, as they had a lot of experts in water management. How much longer can Thailand keep up this charade? People are going to notice this sooner of later, right?

If a thai person asked an american about lao kao, how much would you expect them to know about it?

The floods in New Orleans was almost as bad, how long will america keep up the charade?

Sooner or later people are going to realize americans do not know everything, right?

The King knew thailand was going to suffer major floods many decades ago, and his majesty had designed a system to deal with it. But instead the land that was set aside to store the flood waters had been developed by real estate investors and an airport built within it.

I worked as an interpretor for cobra gold a few years and one of the things i will never forget was - an officer could not figure out how to turn on the hot water in his hotel, never occurred to him to turn the handle to the left.

#3808697 What Is Peptein Drink?

Posted bkkjames on 2010-08-11 12:00:41

I am amazed at the FDA allowing the approval of these kinds of drinks - especially their claims of improved brain efficiency etc. Seems as long as it is not beer, one can claim anything.

Thinking of bringing a new pill to the market and calling it "TIME CAPSULE", filled with caffeine with the added benefit of arriving to your next meeting at the agreed upon time.

#3806607 What Is Peptein Drink?

Posted Samuian on 2010-08-10 12:30:14

Wiki

My 2 cents on the issue is = BS!

Good marketing campaign to sell these "energy, fitness and beauty drinks"

Seems here the folks are highly susceptible to this kind of "nutrition"
birds nest, plum, black chicken, wild berry and the multitudes of similar
drink like red bull and lipo is an incredible money spinner and the drinks
health value highly questionable!

#4965639 Open Letter To PM Yingluck Re: Updating Laws Affecting Foreigners From Drew N...

Posted Hurricane51 on 2012-01-09 09:44:27

I guess it's symptomatic of the general inattention to detail that an attorney submitted a document to the government with so many errors. Troubling beyond the content. Makes you think twice about trusting attorneys (like you need yet another reason).

I fear that this letter will go straight to the grey file.

It would have been good to have proofread the letter at least one more time before sending it.
I can see several instances of inconsistencies and spelling mistakes.
-"not accepted into Thai society like a women"
-"At 60 baht to the pound if his monthly pension is 13,500 pounds per month (1,112 pounds per month)"
-"foreign men married to Thai women cannot become Thai citizens and must re-qualify every year for a one-year visa to stay in Thailand,"
Not quite true. It is easier for foreign women married to Thai men to become citizens, but foreign men can become Thai citizens if married to a Thai woman, but the requirements are much stricter.

Such things matter if you are going to send an open letter to a Prime Minister.
