They processed these dried mangoes from their organic farm and packed it to sell to Japan about 350g for S$5.00

14/4/2010 (PHUKET, PATONG BEACH - THAILAND)

My wife and I visited Phuket, Patung Beach in Thailand. We took a flight from Changi International Airport in Singapore.

I remembered we paid about 20 Thai Baht each for the photo taking with them. So two photos taking we paid 80 Thai Baht. They are transvestites (Ladyboy).

yah I know topping up only extend 1 month, hence my qn haha
but didn't know min topup is 10baht, which is not so bad..!

thanks!
Download AIS app, every top up is 10 baht. Remember, don't top up 120 baht one shot thinking it could extend the validity to 12 months. You need to top up 12 times, each time 10 baht. Takes a bit of time but only do it once a year.

Cannot compare apple to orange...CM vs BKK totally different stories. SG embassy is in BKK itself.... in the morning submit your doc, afternoon get the cert. What is troublesome?

3 weeks? Same as my new SG passport renewal in BKK. :D

I am a true blue Northerner. Don't like my driving license to have other province's name. No lah, actually I'm lazy to fly and spend extra to stay in bkk to complete the renew. I just engage agent to do it for me, once a few years only just give them kopi money

My Singaporean friend in Thailand forwarded this photograph yesterday. He bought the Traditional Moon Cake at one of the shop near his farm. He said, "I’ll eat my oldest version of the moon cake tonight price also back in the 60s, S$1.50"
