It is online too now, so your number will be there. I used my number to make appointments for COVID vaccinations.

When you have SS, you already have a Thai ID number, it is on the card. No need for a Pink card at all.

You said all Westerners would leave, which is not true at all.

No they won't, many have don't any issues to comply with visa regulations.

It remains to be seen if that is still possible in a couple of years.

Why would you want to buy a condo if you don't live here for a longer period of time?

Have nothing with Christmas. Can have good food and drinks anytime I want it.

You might get visitors who want to share your food and drinks:

I think that would be the length. while 70 and 90 being depth and width.

I think it is called a bath.

Chase and smack (if I could catch him / her). Would call on people: 1000 thb reward for who stops the thief and holds him/ her till I arrive if they are faster than me ( quite likely).

Fake resume, fake certificate if the company contact your previous employer, you won't get the job. It isn't a bad version it is a fraud.

You really think it is their first choice in life to play the girlfriend / wife of somebody 3 x their age?

Goodbye

The OP wants to do a dump and wee in the sea.

Any structure on the beach is forbidden as all beaches are property of the Royal family.

What about the sexpats exploiting poor Thais?

I hope they do.

Why are you blaming Thais for an accident which was the fault of a foreigner who isn't insured? Better blame foreigners who ride a bike without insurance, no helmet and driver's license.

Many people have been dealing with tax returns and visas without any problems. Why are you not capable to do so?

Thailand isn't ruined, you can't cope. Something very wrong if you need to beg for a visa. It is pretty normal to pay tax in the country you live in. If you already paid tax, there most likely will be a DTA unless your home country's government are a bunch of idiots.

The way I read it, you have a multiple entry, entries must be in a 2 week period. Doesn't state how long you can stay.

I used to live in Amsterdam, quite a big Thai community there and indeed most don't want to return. From what they told me there are several reasons: 1) They build a completely new life in the new country (kids who go to local schools, have a good paying job, own a business). 2) Don't want to be bothered by family popping in with money requests. 3) After a long stay away, then coming back for a holiday / funeral / ... a lot has changed. Friends moved on, old memories where either not good or won't match the reality anymore. I know a few who came back but that was mostly after a short stay because they couldn't settle (weather, being alone in a house in the middle of nowhere while husband was working all the time). One guy sold his 2 restaurants and retired in Phuket.

You can have a great life in Thailand as everything good is available. Certain things will cost more than other places but when having a lot of money this is not a problem. The people I know with money, do travel a lot outside the country. I do understand the family part, have the same thing.
