Might be police call you for witness about 100 ringgit..😅😅

ok I'm a staff member working with the insurance company (back end).....know why they can't register a British plate no? Because their system does not decorate/not able to capture your plate registration inside it.....meaning they are using an old system.....this is the reason why most system keep enhanced every year

I'm so sorry for your troubles. We also crossed Malay-Thai borders with a VAN registered in Europe and it was much easier. First of all we did the Thai visa directly at the embassy in KL. We didn't have to book flights as we showed our CdP specifying in the form that we are going to cross with our own vehicle. This worked well. Then we booked only 7 days free cancelation for the hotels. And we got the 2 months visa. Everything cost 160MYR pp (the Visa fee). BTW, you can extend this visa by one month in Thailand. Then we picked the Wang Prachang border crossing, ( the Western most). At this border it was very fast and they didn't ask for the DLT approval. We crossed both borders in about 1.5h with no costs. Insurance 800BHT for 6months on the Thai side.

Thank you for sharing this - we have found out that if your vehicle is not registered with the Thai Ministry of Transport as a foreign (UK / Europe) vehicle your insurance is invalid - Marianne

@@TREADtheglobeHi, so is Trudy insurance valid now, after the 10 days post approval from Thai Ministry of Transport? Asking since the process was you guys got the insurance first then ministry approval, instead of the normal ministry approval then only getting the insurance. Good info to know, who knows one day I'm going to drive into Thailand as well! :)

Guys, I did post in your previous video you need a special permit, foreign vehicle permit before they allow entry into Thailand for non Msian car plate 😅

Another important thing, please check the approval from customs, usually they give just 30 days. If your car stays inside Thailand for more than 30 days, you will get fined 1,000 Bahts a day. I got fined for a few thousand Bahts during the exit.

Sarawak and Sabah has their own regulations with regards to foreign vehicles. So it is better to double-Check with Road Transport Department of both states.

​@@faizalisa7782we all have a "translate to English" button under comments in a different language, as far as I know. Don't you have such a [quick] translation button?

Glad Trudy's stamp in is successful. Phew! I could feel the frustration and anxiety even from here. Also, thank god, Marianne is alright. Do take care. Have fun exploring Thailand.

That green along the road is "Paddy field"..where we get our staple food "rice"

Hope both of you enjoyed exploring Malaysia and come visit us again. Love from Malaysia. Take care of your journey in Thailand.

Ohhh..sorry to hear Marianne fainted. 😢. I hope you both everything is going smoothly. ❤ love from Malaysian

Marianne is my favourite. She is a very cool lady. 😊

Welcome to Thailand ❤️🇹🇭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿♥️ From an English expat that's been living here 15 years 🤗🙏🏻

👋👋👋👋👍👍💪Hooray!!! All well ends well!! Happy touring & see you back in Malaysia soon😍😍

Really admired both you for your patience and calmness in all sorts of situations in around the world!...🥰. Enjoy your trip onwards and have a pleasant trip and Bye from M'sia...🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾. Take care...👋👋👋

I stalled my bike on the hill between Malaysia and Thailand and it wouldn't start again. I pushed it up the hill only to find out the same thing, I didn't have the right paperwork to cross into Thailand. I spent 2 days in border hotel while I worked on bike in No-Man's land. Was an easy fix but took a while to find

I did comment on previous vids on heatstroke, especially on hot Weather. Also since your heading to thailand, a trip to krabi is a MUST! Beautiful place over there

I am glad that you were able to get Trudy registered in Thailand. I was surprised that you did not get all this sorted out at the Thai consulate in Penang, it would have saved you a lot of time, money and headache? Before leaving Thailand for China got to Chinese embassy in Bangkok and get all the details worked out, including how you are going to leave China to which country. Go to that country's embassy in Bangkok and get everything sorted out. You have to do this because credible information is hard to come by, get up to date information. Please do come back to Malaysia. I would like to wish you safe travel journeys and take care.🙏❤👍

So glad Marianne was Ok in the end. 👍🏼 Marianne. Also glad you got your paperwork sorted, makes you wonder what exactly the 500 dollars was actually for as you’d done the form filling already, but you had no choice! Looking forward to seeing your adventures. Stay safe both of you.

Happy it all worked out in the end. Safe travels!

Well done, what a relief for you! Happy and safe onwards travels! Woo hoo 🙌 🎉 Yes 👍 to Borneo, we loved it! 💛

Soooo happy for you !!! Sorry that Marianne didn’t feel so good … heat + stress … 😵‍💫 Have a wonderful day ! 🥰

What a palaver that border crossing was and so expensive too. Looking forward to seeing your travels in Thailand.

Cheers! Finally, both of you are on your way into Thailand.

Phew! MY blood pressure was bouncing around just watching that experience!!! So glad Marianne was healthier by the time you got to all that! And SO EXCITED to hear you are really going to do China - what an amazing spring adventure that'll be! BTW - your park up in north Japan is under 2 meters of snow at the moment...

Thanks guy's for another great episode 👍 safe travels and enjoy

Well done guy's. The journey continues. How are all the powerlines above.

Glad you are feeling better. Scary moment fainting. Had a health scare myself this week. Suspected stroke 😢 all good, though ❤ looking forward to Thailand with you.

I hope you both enjoyed exploring in Malaysia!!I have been in Thailand before and i gotta admit is a wonderful experience and very different than Malaysia.Good luck in your newest journey and i wish thing won’t get worse during your adventure❤

I was just as anxious too...all is done and enjoy your trip..❤❤❤

Be alert especially Marianne, the temperature through out the week may raise up to 30 -38 degree celcus, May cause heat stroke, so Please drink lot of water and always keep away from direct contact with Sun. Frequent shower required in order to cool down the body heat.

Plus electrolytes or coconut milk is very hydrating as includes electrolytes (part of its job is to keep the fluid in body longer) ie drinking excess water without electrolytes is just as dangerous as dehydration most marathon runners knows this as some have died when not Inc electrolytes. ps I'm aware of this as my medical condition needs me to keep hydrated.

Thank you 🙏 Can't wait to see you again 🤩 Have a safe journey 🙏🙏

That is lot of wait time but the food, culture, people are all great in Thailand - enjoy dnd waiting to see videos of Thailand drive and experiences- a big thank you!

Safe trip to UK both of you. Come back again to Malaysia b’coz you missed the East Coast further up due to the monsoon rain and flood. Cover too the Pan-Borneo Highway. Our 16th King (Agong) and Queen with their sons and daughters have covered the Borneo Highway last year.

Glad you got sorted! Another ace video ❤

Man! That's pretty rough. That 10 days is almost like covid quarantine. But at least this one you could goto the bars and restaurants

Great vlog.... I've lived on Koh Samui for nearly 10 year's. Most year's we drive up to Udon Thani and for me it's a 3 day trip because of the madness...

It's excepted on the roads here..Stay Save..
