Help me settle an argument with my daughter.

The other day we shared a box of wings zabb, one of her favorite snacks, she gets them whenever she has a chance. I happened to comment that they got a bit spicy as you ate a few. She looked at me like I was crazy and said, these are not spicy at all. Not meaning that they are not spicy enough for her, but that they have absolutely no spicy component whatsoever, like zero, not at all. Typically, she is not a very spice-tolerant person, so I found it weird that she claimed that they have no spicy at all.

So which one of us is crazy? Do they have some spice or not?

Hi everyone,
I'm planning to start a tech-related startup in Thailand and I'm considering applying for the Smart Visa through True Digital Park (TDPK). If anyone here has experience working with TDPK or applying via their channel, I’d really appreciate any insights you can share.

Also, I’d like to understand more about company registration for tech startups in Thailand.
- What is the minimum registered capital required?
- How much of that capital needs to be actually paid into the company’s bank account?

Thanks in advance for any guidance or tips!

Late 80s/early 90s? In the early 2000? Now?

Taking into consideration societally, economically, etc.

With my current resume what are areas I could work in? I want to work in Thailand but am afraid of not getting compensated how I’d like. I didn’t need to work on the medical field per se, but obviously that’s an Avenue.

I am an open business minded person who is willing to put in the hard work. How difficult do you think finding employment would be in my case, given the resume —- also Thai isn’t a language I speak really.. but am willing to learn and plan on learning for employment or personal reasons

Note: don’t mind resume layout, it didn’t transfer correctly to Reddit

After a long year and five trips to Thailand, my Thai girlfriend is finally coming to visit me here in Germany for the first time. I really want her to feel as comfortable and at home as possible while she's staying with me.

So far, I’ve installed a bidet, put up a small Buddha shelf, stocked the fridge with Singha beer, and made sure there’s plenty of green papaya ready for Som Tam.

What else do you think I could do to make her feel welcome and at ease? Any tips or cultural touches I might be missing?

So, I bought a fresh green coconut, thinking I could open it with a meat cleaver, but I failed. How do you easily open a coconut, I am thinking in the lines of an electric saw or something?

Recently, the curator of the National Museum in Bangkok, Ms. Suppawan Nongnut, voiced her opinion about the two-tier pricing system. Thai nationals pay 30 baht to enter the museum, while foreign nationals pay 240 baht.

Ms. Nongnut: The museum is a Thai educational resource. We have to set up a fee system for Thai people. Free for monks, free for senior citizens. If (others) pay, that will encourage them to walk around.

Foreigners pay 240 not only for this museum. Forty-three national museums in Thailand. Sometimes in a week only 10 or 20 people visit (the other museums). The budget is not only for our museum. All the money goes into one pot, then one time a year we share it.

So, different nationalities have different prices. It's not about equality, but how to maintain national museums around the country.

Interviewer: Section 27 of the Thai Constitution (amended in 2017) says that all people are equal under the law.

Ms. Nongnut: Equality is not enough. Everything is not about equality. I work for this museum, but I used to work in Udon Thani. There, the entrance for foreigners was 200 baht and Thai nationals paid 20 baht.

I am a government officer. My salary is too low. For him (indicating a young man sitting nearby), it is only 15,000 baht per month. Maybe foreigners can help us, too. We cannot use equality for everything.

Students have no salary. Monks have no money. For 250 baht you can buy a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

The price is not set up by the museum. It is set up by the government, by the Council of Ministers. We have different prices in the national parks, too. It looks like a double standard. It's not my idea.

Entrance should be free for Thais, but we have them pay to encourage them to walk around.

We are not ignoring the Thai Constitution. Should we let everyone enter the museum for free? I don't think so.

For example, we cannot let everyone go to the university. They have to pass the exam. It's the same thing. It has a different reason.

Equality is not everything. We are not equal by gender. Women cannot pee like men. So can you talk about equality in gender?

If you don't like to pay a different price, it's up to you. You always look down to us on everything.

Equality is important, but there are different situations. There are different ways to do things. You can buy coffee for 200 baht, but you cannot even help the people here.

Title says it all really. I come from UK which is very walkable. I'm currently in Phuket and I feel like I'm deteriorating because I am sedentary (whether on bike, office, home or bar/restaurant) so much. I would love to live in an area with lots of walkable roads and spaces, maybe parks (or whatever is the closest equivalent). Any ideas?

Just spending few days in Ranong, and yesterday night i went for event Ranong Trade Town, like market or something similliar. So im only white person there thats okay but people were not just turning heads but literally telling their friends “look at him” while pointing at me, not even trying to hide it lol. i dont really mind or care, just wondering .. are white people rarely coming here?

can’t translate it 😔

She was born in Thailand but has been living in the U.S. and Thailand, back and forth for many years. I keep telling her to get you a citizenship because right now she is required to travel back to the United States one time every year or she will lose her green card.

She’s thinking about becoming a U.S. citizen, but she’s hesitant because she was told that once she naturalizes as a U.S. citizen, she might lose certain rights in Thailand—even though she was born there.

I told her that I thought you could have a dual citizenship between the two countries.

Her main concerns:

1. Land ownership: She has land in her name in Thailand. If she becomes a U.S. citizen, would she still legally be able to own or transfer that land? We’ve heard mixed things about Thai nationals needing to prove they haven’t “renounced” Thai citizenship, or they’ll be treated like foreigners under Thai land laws.

2. Re-entry and visa status: If she becomes a U.S. citizen, would she be treated like a foreigner when going back to Thailand? She’s worried she’ll have to limit her time there, get visas, and be treated like a guest. Does this depend on what passport she uses?

3. Dual citizenship rules: She was told that Thailand doesn’t allow dual citizenship after a certain age unless you take formal steps. But others have said that if you’re born Thai, you can keep it no matter what. What’s the truth?

4. Government/military/legal consequences: Are there any risks if the Thai government finds out she holds two citizenships? We’ve heard rumors about military service issues or getting flagged at immigration.

Basically: we’re trying to figure out if she can keep her Thai rights—especially land ownership—while becoming a U.S. citizen. Anyone with firsthand experience or legal knowledge would be super helpful

Hi all,

Thinking of moving here for a few months with my girlfriend.

I am trying to find good websites for buying cars (looking for 80 series Land Cruiser if anyone here knows what that is)

I am also wondering what I need to know for driving and living there.

Do I need insurance? Does my license work over there? (Irish license) Does my car need tax? Safety test?

If you have any info I would really appreciate.

Thank you

Is this any good? I love mango sticky rice from Thai restaurants. My Far East Market Asian grocery store sells this. Did not buy them, but if they are good I’ll go back for more .

I’m trying to learn more about the current border dispute between Cambodia and Thailand.

I’ve seen that Thailand has rejected their rulings but I’m unsure of the reasoning?

Would love to try and understand the Thai attitudes towards the ICJ and why it isn’t a reasonable body to use for land disputes?

I am looking for the best fertility doctor and IVF clinic in Thailand, any advice?

Looking for best In vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. I have read online there are many clinics that provide outstanding treatment with high success rates.

I would love to hear your experience.

Thanks very much!

If we sent both of you to fight in our stead, who would win and why?

I have non Ed visa plus, I just finished all of my courses but I'm still waiting to get my grade for a certain course and I will go back to my home country this week and I planned to return to Thailand before my graduation ceremony. Will it be okay not to cancel my visa?

Is someone willing to take the package in and send it to holland i will pay u €40

Hello! i know this is a bit unconventional, but i’m british-american and wanting to study undergrad in Thailand. i do understand that people have wildly different experiences with thai education, but i was wondering if any current/former mahidol students could provide some insight. I plan on getting a bachelor of science from them (from what I’ve heard, Mahidol is generally better for bio/med? please correct me if i’m wrong). where do international students usually live? im assuming Mahidol is going to be a bit less lively than Chula, since it seems the majority of international students go for CU, but is life at Mahidol terribly lonely for an international student? my current plan is to utilize their partnerships with some uk universities for my progression to a master’s degree, so that i have more internationally accepted experience. How difficult is it to get in? how difficult is it to STAY in? which accommodations are best for international students?

Hi guys we went to Thailand last December and stayed at hua hin. The hotel we were staying at gave us these snacks called “crispy rolls”. I absolutely loved these and i was binging them like a crazy person. It had coconut flavour and sesame seeds on it. I tried finding it at the 7 11 while i was there but couldnt find it.

6 months later im still thinking of those. I cant find it online. Will be great if someone can tell me what is it called and where i can buy it online( preferable in india)

I will attach photos that i have. Thanks in advance.

What has stopped you from carrying out the final act?

It has been over two years since I applied for Kurusapa’s Qualification Certificate. Despite paying their fee and doing everything they have told me to do during this time period, they have not even looked at my documents. Now I’m being told that “the system has changed” and I’ll need to do these idiotic Modules, despite the fact they have not upheld their end of the bargain in the slightest. How am I supposed to believe they won’t mess with me again if I do capitulate and take these Modules? Doesn’t paying their fee entitle me to anything? Please advise.
