Phuket night time businesses say Sandbox has been a huge failure

That’s why the adverts always start with the words “ Amazing Thailand “ -
Udon police arrest Swiss expat who killed armed intruder at his home
crazykopite replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Is there no such thing as self defence in Thailand so if an intruder breaks into my house I’m not allowed to defend myself but he can kill me with his gun . That’s why the adverts always start with “ Amazing Thailand “ nothing ceases to amaze me ! -
I use wise all the time I never transfer funds until I am happy with the rate . Every morning they send me the new rate from U.K. GBP to Thai Bht . I have never felt the reason to stop a transfer as there is no other company that I’m aware of that offers better rates and handling fees . If I were to cancel a transaction then I would expect to pay some form of fee as Wise is not a charity it’s a business.

I have my own pool and an outdoor shower I always shower before and after my pool is salt water far better for the skin -
I’m looking at buying my sister a used Nissan Leaf in the U.K. it has 30,000 miles on it is under 5 years old and will cost 300,000 baht I’ve done a currency conversion. To purchase a new Nissan Leaf in Thailand the cost is 1.95 million baht it’s time this so called government stopped the ridiculous import charges Nissan have brought out the Nissan Kicks cost for the top model is 1.1 million baht if the motor show goes ahead this year I will go and see what deal I can get on it it’s not a plug in its electricity is generated by petrol I think the petrol consumption is 4 litre per 100 km but as there are very few places where you can charge an EV this might be a good option for Thailand . China is going to be the main provider of affordable EVs maybe this administration will do a few brown envelopes and bring them into the Kingdom without ripping off the public we will have to wait and see.

16 years ago I lived like a millionaire due to the exchange rate nowadays I have had to tighten my belt a little but I’m still comfortable the sad thing is from an outsiders view Thailand has gone a step back the coup did nothing to give the people a better living standard as most are in debt up to there eyeballs

I think it’s wishful thinking but even if it does remove Thailand from the red list the AZ vaccine being administered in Thailand is not recognised and although I have had the two jabs I would have to go into quarantine for 14 days at my own expense so it looks like no visits to the U.K. until all the restrictions are removed

Thai Court rejects dual pricing case from expat in Hua Hin
crazykopite replied to webfact's topic in Hua Hin and Cha-Am News
No surprise the Thai judicial is not an independent body they do as they are told .won’t be surprised after seeing this ruling that charges for foreigners will rocket price fixing at its best just like the park admissions and they want to attract the very wealthy to Thailand it’s like the import duty for foreign vehicles the whole thing is a scam -

Large money transfer.
crazykopite replied to ray richards's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Set up a wise account the first two transfers are free if I’m correct plus they give the best rate best way would be to transfer your 100k into you new wise account and when your happy with the exchange rate send it to your Thai bank account there is a charge -
