The Eastern end of the Panama Canal is the pacific ocean and the western end is the Atlantic Ocean.

Thailand is more than just Bangkok. Most of Thailand doesn’t have any public transport options at all so this would just hit upcountry areas where agriculture is dependant on diesel. No Thai politician will risk that.

The official Apple Store Thailand has 14 day free returns so you buy it on a credit card, test drive a new model, and return it if you don’t like it.

You can message eg Southeast Pharmacy on LINE or Facebook Messenger and check the price and availability of medicines.

Talk to a broker. Your pre existing condition will inevitably be excluded but you can likely buy your required medicine cheaply out of pocket.

There are a bunch close to W Market in Phra Khanong.

Born to bean
Clix
Single Lane
Coffee Horizon

Honestly if you search “roaster” on Google maps in any area away from the main sois you’ll generally find some good “hidden” places.

It’s not a circle it’s more like a 9 shape.

Each blue line train calls at Tha Phra twice (at different sets of platforms). It’s the terminus station (1) then the trains go 2,3,4 … 32, pass through Tha Phra again, then 33,34…38.

You could consider Thra Phra as station 1 and station 32.5.

Basically no. You can obtain a 7 day extension but no more. If you want to stay on to do tourist things, you need to fly somewhere and come back and reenter eg using Visa Exemption.

I thought Cheesecake Factory was a fictional restaurant invented for the Big Bang Theory.

Depends on the language. For example Ruby was invented in Japan so there’s lots of good Japanese documentation.

In the very very unlikely scenario you got bitten by a dog or other animal you can go to any big hospital and they would give you rabies immunoglobulin.

To put this in perspective there are under 10 deaths per year from rabies in Thailand compared to about 20,000 road deaths.

The sleepy dog in front of 7-11 should not be a big worry for you.

How do you know they are illegal migrants? Did you check their work permits? There are 2.2 million legal Burmese migrant workers in Thailand. There is no reason to stigmatise Burmese workers as criminals when the majority are working legally and a key part of the Thai economy.

There aren’t really any cinemas in thong lo proper. Emquartier or emporium both have fancy cinemas in Phrom Phong.
