long term resident. It's a specific category of visas, with different ways to qualify.

strange, the Homepro near me has 2 dryer models, Global House near me has none, nearest Powerbuy has one, and nearest Big C and Lotus's to me have none. Was just shopping for one last month.

If you think washers are rare, wait till you try to find dryers. Even the "big box" chains that are Thailand's equivalents of Walmart or Best Buy, may have 20 different models of laundry machines, but you'll be lucky if they sell one dryer model. Dryers are very rarely found except in commercial laundromats. Everyone hangs their laundry instead.

@Catherine **********

well there's the explanation. baht is a low-end place. It means people typically can't afford a washer/dryer and hand wash clothes, and often cook outside on a portable grill in what's called a Thai kitchen, versus the formal kitchen, to minimise smells.

Your employer is the one that applies for your work permit and Non-B visa. You can't get them yourself then look for a job. That isn't how it works. If you quit your job, your work permit is cancelled as well as your visa.

It's different depending on what mobile phone carrier you have.

@Younes *******

maybe it was just the wording of your comment that made it sound like you didn't realise it was a multiple entry visa, so he can use it repeatedly, not just once, to enter before the September expiration date.

@Albert *******

WRONG. It's a multiple entry visa and can be used as many times as the OP wants through the September expiration date.

@Younes *******

you must not have noticed that the OP posted a multiple entry tourist visa, which means it can be repeatedly used as many times as he wants up until the September expiration date to enter for 60 days each time.

15k a month obviously. No way can you run multiple ACs and keep it under 1.5k a month. I average 9000k a month for 2 ACs turned on maybe half of each day, set at 26C (79 F), paying government utility rates (not marked up like some condos.) 15k is certainly plausible for a house.
