Re: Windows 10 Developments

It would seem that Microsoft has started downloading Windows 10 in Thailand. It is supposed to be doing this in chunks to avoid "freezing" the internet. I see, if I look in Update History, that 7 Windows 10 updates have been automatically downloaded. They all failed to install and presumab...

Re: Zebwer

It's very good. Not the cheapest (about 350 Baht for roast Lamb). Have a good choice chicken, pork, lamb & beef. Yorkshire puddings are very good. This is not just Sunday but every day except Wednesday.

Re: Golf courses

Black Mountain & Banyan cost over 5,000 Baht (incl. Caddy Fee, Tip & Buggy). All other courses cost about a 1,000 less. Lake View which has 2 18-hole courses costs 2,800 (incl. caddy fee) but you need to tip the caddy at least 300 and a buggy will cost 750 which may be shared with another pl...

Re: Imperial Lake View

I read your report and you are very, very wrong or you are spoilt by playing too many top courses. I have played about 400 different courses (including many of the top courses in the world) in my life and the great majority of these were a lot worse than Lake View.

Re: Imperial Lake View

What a very negative rubbish and untrue review. Lake View is at this moment the fourth best course in Hua Hin with respect to condition. Only Black Mountain, Banyan & Sea Pines are better. Both Black Mountain & Banyan are only for millionaires and Sea Pines is always full of army players usu...

Re: Income Tax on money brought into Thailand for personal u

I currently pay tax in Holland. My pensions (both State & private) are taxed at source. There is a tax agreement between Holland and Thailand so I can opt to pay tax in Thailand instead of Holland but in order to do this I would have to prove to the Dutch authorities that I am paying tax in Thai...

Income Tax on money brought into Thailand for personal use

I have retired to Thailand. I understand that anybody who spends more than 180 days in a calendar year in Thailand is legally considered to be a “tax resident”. I have no businesses in Thailand thus I do not earn any money in Thailand. I understand however that a “portion” of all money I bring into ...

Re: Hua Hin golfsocieties or golf groups

Hoi Kees, Er zijn zes of meer groepen in Hua Hin maar lidmaatschap is afhankelijk van verschillende dingen (handicap, verblijfsddur in Thailand, lidmaatschap van bepaalde Thai club, ben je wel of niet gezellig, speel je met je vrouw of niet, enz.). De meeste groepen vind het prima als je speel als g...

Re: Ranong visa run

Went to Kanchanaburi last Saturday for 90 day renewal. 3 hours drive from Hua Hin center. Border crossing very quiet. Everything done within 20 minutes. Plenty of people to help with filling in forms, etc. You have to pay 900 Baht for the bus transport from the Thai border to the Myanmar border (abo...
