This country seems to roll the dice to decide how it operates each day. They are also paranoid.

Example: An English teacher with 20 years of experience in a public school, married to a Thai citizen, carried a folder with proof of his legal status in Thailand, about 14 cm thick.

Location: Thai Embassy in Phnom Penh. Purpose: annual visa renewal.

His visa was denied.

After this experience, I told him, "Have you tried the other window?"

No problem. It worked.

Better to have an active Thai partner. Both in the same "boat."Everything will be simpler and smoother in every way.

Better a Thai face than yours.

To achieve my proposal, you need to live here for several years.

I suppose you understand me.

To have control over you, does that seem extraordinary to you?

My BEST advice. Save money.

Yes, the Samsung AR18BVHCMWKNXL has a design with the air flow directed downwards, which is part of the Wind-Free™ technology. This model distributes the air evenly without creating a direct cold air stream, making the airflow smoother and quieter.

The Samsung AR18BVHCMWKNXL consumes approximately 208.73 kWh/month, which would cost around 835 baht (~$24 USD/month) in Bangkok, based on average rates.

Minimum average

@Nick ***********

The Samsung AR18MVFHDWKNXL has a cooling capacity of 18,000 BTU/h (5.28 kW) and a power consumption of 1,700 W in cooling mode. (samsung.com)

To estimate monthly consumption, assuming 8 hours of daily use:

Daily consumption: 1,700 W × 8 hours = 13.6 kWh

Monthly consumption: 13.6 kWh × 30 days = 408 kWh

In Bangkok, with an average electricity rate of 4 baht per kWh, the estimated monthly cost would be:

408 kWh × 4 baht/kWh = 1,632 baht

Approximately $47 USD (assuming an exchange rate of 1 USD = 34.8 baht)

These calculations are estimates; actual consumption may vary depending on usage and specific conditions.

It's mainly visa advice, but not exclusively. It is also about the life of expatriates.

That's why my post has been approved. It's clearly visible in the main information of this group. But I don't want to enter into a debate. Thnx Garret
