So you want to stop a religious practice over thousand of years ago just that you get a good sleep. Be sensible and practice more religious tolerance mate. The mosque will not move but you can.

They didn't have loud speakers 1000 years ago, are loudspeakers required, as written in their ' book '.

In some countries it would be classed as noise pollution, same as any other pollution that affects other peoples life, nothing to do with religion. Not that long ago some religions sacrificed humans, is that OK with you for your ' religious tolerance '  :rolleyes:

I agree that loudspeakers should not be used.
I wonder if the calling is done in person, or if it's a recording going through speakers?
Your point about noise pollution in some countries is valid and the first to go would be incessant barking dogs.
However, TIT and we know what applies in some countries does not apply here.

Should add, Thailand is religion tolerant but a certain religion does not recognise any other religion and wants the world to follow it and what it does. :)

What, as in Mr Singh the Sikh perhaps? Not exactly kindred spirits, the folks of Islam & Sikhism, are they? First post ever and a gripe looking for support! Usually, an online social community in the 21st century has a bit of netiquette, meaning a first post ever preferably begins with a 'Hi everyone', followed by the topic in question!  

Me thinks TV is rapidly become Troll Visa in a desperate attempt to bring members to rooms. This is of course, just my humble opinion, or which I'm entitled to, and simply by my interaction here, shows that it works ;)

You could record a Buddhist Prayer and blast it back in their direction during the time they want silence.  Or pay some noisy motorcyclists to do laps around the Mosque without mufflers during the time they like silence. They should know their loudspeaker noise is offensive to the lives of everyone else around them who hold different beliefs.  So, they need a dose of their own medicine if they continue to ignore requests to turn it off.


Are you not aware that muslims are correct in everything they believe in, say and do, it is the rest of the world that is out of step.

Why all the bullshit.  The OP wants some USs.  

SK Money Changer on the river side of Charoen Prathet Road.  It's a few metres north of Loi Khroh Road (just around the corner from the steel bridge).

Edit:  They have any currency you want if you give them a little notice.  USs are always there.

How are their rates compared to what the banks supposedly offer?

Better.


#3748409 Self Storage Chiang Mai?

Have you tried doing a thaivisa forum search (in chiangmai forum) on this topic. There have been quite a few threads on this. From memory, one thaivisa member started a self-storage service as a result and subsequently I saw ads running in (I think) the citylife web classifieds. Long-time active contributors like UG would probably know if this service is still being advertised/available.
the ads in citylife classifieds are not the member you refer to. Whoever put the citylife ad does not answer email or telephone calls. Good luck ever getting your stuff out of there (if you could ever get it in of course)! But there was a member who offered storage in his home.

Most people do just rent a room to store a few boxes or a motorcycle, etc. You can rent a room for 3 months or whatever for 1500-2500 Baht per month. Put a padlock on and there you go.
