Re: BKK moderately priced hotel by skytrain

We just back from ON8. Sukhumvit Soi 8. They have direct access to Nana BTS, when you leave the Hotel thru the short cut way.

One of the best location, when you like direct BTS access.

Re: Immigration 24 hour address registration clampdown starts in Phuket

Yes, for the 2 year Thai driving license is also the 30 days entry stamp as the tourist visa valid.

For the 5 year Thai driving license a nonimmigration visa is needed.
