Getting Set For My Work Permit

Now we have completed the registration process for our Foundation project, The Stratton ABC Foundation, it is time for me to apply for my new work permit as Foundation Director. Today I went into Chiang Mai to prepare the nesseccary for this.

First of it was to the Fuji photoshop on Moon muang Rd, close to Johns Place(nothing to do with me), where I had four photos done, (4.5 x 5.6-i think). The proprietor is aware of the correct size needed if you tell him its for a work permit. The whole process takes about 15 minutes and cost 100 baht.

From there I went to Chiang Mai Ram Hospital on Arak Rd, for a health certificate and blood test for syphillis. This is where things went a bit askewd. I needed to produce my passport, which i thought I had taken. Unfortunately I had taken the empty cover! So it looks like I need to go back tomorrow.

After that hiccup I popped into Kad Suan kaow Shopping Plaza to pick up the  reading glasses that I ordered last week.

I can highly recommend the ” Beautiful Optical” shop, on the ground floor of the Plaza. close to the Bangkok Bank.

They have a wide range of frames and lenses to suit all pockets. There is a free eye test, using computerised scanning equipment to assess your precise needs, and the service is very friendly.

After a brief session of window shopping it was back home to get on with website work.
