SIM card registration approaches deadline

Rules enforced by the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) require anyone that has a prepaid SIM card in Thailand must provide their personal details before July 31st. Google TH
Phones not registered by the deadline will no longer be able to use phone or data service.
The simplest way is to take your passport and phone to your local phone service provider. (true, dtac, ais, etc.).

If you compare the rates with previous years, 
the recent ripple is hardly noticeable

Some soothsayers suggest it will level out at 35 by year's end

90 day report online

During my last 90 day report at the immigration office, the officer on duty was quite blunt that I use the online reporting procedure.
A few things to keep in mind: 
  • Online registration can only be done with Internet Explorer at this time.   
  • Registration online must be done 7 to 15 days before your actual due date. Less days remaining must file their report at the immigration office
Example from user Guide.

Phed (spicy), Rohn(hot)


They told me it was Isaan Cake. Cake is probably the wrong word to be used here.
My temptation for a small taste was shattered when told that it's 'very spicy.'
Plenty of Thai peppers decorated the 'Cake.'

Flip a coin weather



System Northeast of us (North Vietnam) is stretching southwest, it's hard to tell what it's travel plans are.

If it turns southeast expect mostly overcast.

If it heads toward us expect moderate or heavy rains
