Re: Obtaining A Thai Birth Certificate For My Significant Other Of 30 years.

"brought to the States." That implies she came in on an immigrant visa and must have, at one time had a Green Card.. Immigrant and Naturalization should have records of that.. So, in the long intervening years she probably lost her Thai Passport too? I agree with other posters that the Thai Embassy ...

Re: Israel under attack from hamas, war declared.

UNRWA has 30,000 employees. Only 300 are non-Palestinian.. So, why would anyone be surprised (UN Hq in NYC??) that UNRWA is rife with clientitis and massively infiltrated by Hamas or family and friends of Hamas. No doubt UNRWA is one of the larger employers in Gaza and the West Bank.. Hamas and/or t...

Re: Air pollution in Udon

went through a few days of cool weather with winds blowing from the east and a bit of rain in different parts of the province.. That pushed AQI's down to decent levels.

Re: A long, lazy weekend in Vientiane

the long rough road to Vang Vieng now has a better option, the Tollway/Expressway that's been open for over 2 years. Up to Vang Vieng in a bit over an hour, driving 120kph..

The train to Vang Vieng too is an option, either the "high speed train" at 120kph or the regular train at 100kph..

Re: SRT double tracking BKK-Nong Khai route?

no doubt it should have been done long ago.. Just as for decades in Bangkok there was talk of building a 2nd airport. That eventually happened with the attendant political accusations of graft, kickbacks and bribery.. Bangkok got its first Skytrain nearly 25 years ago and people said that would neve...

SRT is still building the dual track segment from Khorat south to just north of Saraburi. The three tunnels are done. the 5km viaduct through Muak Lek (at its highest 50 meters) is done. There are only a couple of segments not completed. Can't comment on it much though since the SRT AMMW You Tube ch...

The Lao government hyped the high speed passenger aspect of their new rail system endlessly.
