I was at Khon Kaen Immigration yesterday (April 9, 2019) for my 90 day report. The 90-day notification went smoothly. Because there is some ambiguity about the rules to be applied by KhonKaen Immigration, the following.
Factories in Thailand to have clothing stocked in bulk?
I would like to get in touch with a few factories to be able to stock up or have clothing made. I have recently started my own clothing line. Do you have any idea how I can get an address.
When are there the most mosquitoes in Thailand?
I hate mosquitoes. That's because I always get punctured and also get huge itchy bumps. Of course I rub myself with Deet, but that doesn't always help and I refuse to walk with long pants in that heat. What made me wonder when are there the most mosquitoes in Thailand? Now it is the dry period so I assume that there are fewer mosquitoes than, for example, after the rainy season, is that correct?
Internet users who distribute photos or videos of scantily clad women and transgender people online during Songkran will be severely punished, the police warn. The persons in the photo can also count on prosecution for their obscene behavior in public.
Another disappointment richer, went for extension Visa After Chachoensao immigration. All copy and other papers have been carefully checked, so everything was correct. Had to wait a while, but it's your turn soon. The lady from Immigration starts talking to different people, then she looks at the papers, neatly includes the letter with the copy extra of the Aow pension and partner's pension.
On Wednesday afternoon, a fire raged at Centara Grand @ CentralWorld Hotel in Bangkok (Ratchaprasong Intersection), killing three people and injuring seven others, Bangkok governor Aswin Kwanmuang said.
The Thai Painter and Death
A long time ago, a painter lived in Thailand. It sat from morning to evening in places where a lot of people came. Wrapped in a great cloak, and with a hat against the sun, he sat there watching.
Do I need to show 20.000 baht at airport immigration?
I heard a year ago that when you enter Thailand through the airport, immigration sometimes asks if you can show 20.000 baht in cash. Is this still happening? I myself have a Non-Immigrant B (Business Visa). Is this also asked of people with a Non-B visa? I find it really such a strange arrangement, who takes 20.000 baht cash in his wallet?
Is there a Songkran water festival on Khao San Road?
We are two backpackers from the Netherlands and we arrive in Bangkok tomorrow. We have a hostel near Khao San Road. We would like to experience the water party. Now we heard that it is not possible there this year because everything is neatly made for the coronation. Is that right? We would regret that very much. And where should we be then? Somewhere where many young people come?
Reader Submission: Pattaya and the 'new' tourists
Today, young tourists, many of whom are families, fill the new shopping malls and restaurants along Beach Road or Second Road. The sidewalk along the beach is wider, full of new trees and surprisingly pleasant to walk on. The beach at Beachroad has become a real beach again. Most tourists now come from Asia, the Middle East and Russia. Families with children are everywhere.
On King's Day, the Dutch embassy organizes a spectacular party that starts at 5 pm and ends at about 10 pm. There is the famous DJ Renato S, also a band and of course plenty to eat, drink and party.
Thunder, lightning and flooding in Pattaya
Tourists sometimes ask what is the best time to travel to Thailand? Usually the question then refers to the weather. There is currently no level to be measured. This month of April is normally the driest and hottest month of the year. Lately, however, we have been dealing with heavy tropical rain showers in Pattaya. Sometimes even very local.

NL embassy Bangkok no postal voting office in European Parliament elections on 23 May

Friday 5-4 I put on my naughty shoes and made an attempt to obtain my visa extension at the immigration service in Nakhon Phanom. I am 67 years old and married to my Thai beauty and have been living in Nakhon Phanom for over 10 years. I am legally married, but for convenience always ask for a non-immigrant visa extension based on retirement, so the expensive option but less fuss. It has always been quite smooth and fast in recent years.
We will soon be flying with EVA Air from Amsterdam to Bangkok. My question is, how much weight in suitcases can you take on the plane? When I look on the EVA website they talk about a Booking Code.
I love watermelon and often get them from the market. My Thai girlfriend says that they are injected with a chemical substance and that is why they are so beautiful red inside. That stuff is said to be carcinogenic. Is this a monkey sandwich or not? Does anyone know more about it? I do notice that the watermelon on the market are deep red, but they taste great.
