My understanding is that your one-month entry permit can be extended for another month, or even for 2 successive months, for a fee, once you're there - but please don't take my word for it.

Perhaps not relevant to your needs, but note that if you're American or, I think, hold one of several other nationalities, merely going to Thailand doesn't require a visa.

Forums > Study > why should we learn English

I doubt if thoughts of stealing your intellectual property is high on the list of reasons why students study English. At any rate, neither you nor I are countries in the west, and at any rate I think the concept of 'stealing' intellectual property needs to be unpacked a bit. Some things, including some intellectual achievements, perhaps should be 'property', but not everything needs to be owned.
Anyway, it doesn't put me off seeing people learn English, or any language. Note that, some 200+ years ago, it was illegal in China to teach Chinese to foreigners - general fear, at least in some official circles, that the foreigners would figure out China.

Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.

As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.

Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.

Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
