Hi all,

Please apologize if the subject is in this forum channel. I haven't seen a channel related to driving, etc.

My wife will come over to Europe (Belgium). Can she use her Thai driving license to drive a car in Europe or does she require a international driving license like we do when we go to Thailand?

In case an international driving license is required, where can she get it and what are the costs involved?

Dear friends,

it has been a year I have been to Thailand, I have to travel next Tuesday to Bangkok for business. As the flooding is getting worse, will it be a problem to travel from the airport to Samrong?
Last year, the BTS Bearing was still closed for construction. Is it open yet? Maybe I could use the airport link and go further with the BTS to Bearing station if it is operational.  

Are there still busses running from the airport to Sukhumvit?

Greetings to all.

Dear friends,

as I have been riding the honda wave bikes 5 years back, I have bought myself a honda wave (in Europe named innova) about 3 years ago. As I have no dealer close to my location, I am facing the following problem:

There is a black tube that comes from the bottom of the carburetor. And it leaks, not just one drop, it leaks about half a tank when standing still for more than 4 days.
I have opened only the bottom side of the carburator. There was some dirt in it, cleaned it, and checked the float set that floats in the fuel of the carburetor can so if it can move up easily. I also checked the small pin that is supposed to stop the fuel entering the carburetor what the float pushes it up.
After cleaning and checking, there is still fuel leaking out of the carburator? Does anybody have any experience? Do I have to take off the entire carburator? Should I buy a new one when I go to Thailand next month?

Kind regards to all, and thanks for any help.  

PS. Parts of the motorbike seems to be available at the following website: https://docs.google....3NTc5NjBi&hl=nl
see carburetor page 20 section 3, 17 and the picture under.

How hard I try to do my best, every time I'm leaving Thailand, the lady (man or ladyboy) behind the counter is telling me I have too much weight.

How do you deal/cope with it? Do you have some creative ideas besides stuffing all heavy things in your hand luggage?

I'm in Kho Chang at the moment. I met a German neighbour in the guesthouse where I stay and he told me it is possible to get another 14 day stamp upon my 30 day stamp in my passport. He told me to go to the immigration Bureau close to the pier at Centerpoint and they will add up another 14 days and it is even free.
I have many doubts regarding his story, because things like that are not for free in general.

Is this true? If so, is it really free.

I can of course just to a visa run to Cambodia, but that's of course about 1200 baht.

In case I can get another 14 days, is the immigration bureau open on Sundays?

Thanks for any help.
