  1. iF LIFE IS SO GOOD THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD GO BACK TOYOUR HOME COUNTRY AND stop whining
  2. The government is supposed to do things to protect the people. Is it a shot gun affect YES. But using your thinking because not all people that drink get into accidents then the governemnt should not have rules and laws against drunk driving. ISlam is a lot more than rape it is a belief that the only person that should see the ladies beauty is her family. You need to study and look at hisotry hijabs and veils have been around for a long time. They were even a fashion statement
  3. The flaw to your thinking is that you are thinking of North America, Europe mentality. First, how many Thais that you know can afford just to hand out 1.8mill one-time shots? Second, the banks should be doing this. However, they have been so protected that they do not want to do it. Again remember you are in Thailand. As to limits for triple bypass or an SUV or buying a house, there are ways around it. Try taking that much out of your western account and see how fast they stop the payment. You need to contact them so that they can allow it, know it is you doing it, and know that their reason is legitimate. Stop thinking of just you and look at the average Thai. The Thai government could care less about you and what you think. They are responsible for protecting Thais, and that is all. I can guarantee that if the upper-class Thai wants to buy a car, they are not worried about doing it with an app. The same thing with hospitals. This is a measure to protect THAI PEOPLE, not some rich farang that they could care less about.
  4. What visa are these professors coming in under
  5. Let me guess: Kamala was the brightest and most worldly knowledgeable person that you ever saw. The challenge is that California universities are more interested in quotas. However, a kid in England who can outcode anyone in the U.S.> you are saying should not be able to get a job working for a top company in the U.S., that the U.S. does not want the best and the brightest working for American Companies. You do not want the best and brightest professors teaching Americans how to build things or develop skills. You also realize that businesses can not just hire anyone. They have to qualify to hire a foreign person for the job by proving that an American can do it now. https://www.boundless.com/immigration-resources/h-1b-occupation-list/
  6. Hate to burst your bubble but most Thais donot go to BNH Yanhee or other top hopsitals. Most use the government ones. Also, there are very few that have the ability to withdraw 50k a day. Again, the challenge is simple: you have people who have grown up in the old non-techie world who suddenly have been told by their family and the media that they need to do banking online and are trained to follow what any authority figure says. They need protection. This is the simplest way to do it. When you, Mr. Rich Farang, want to buy your motorbike with digital fine, I bet if you go talk to the person at the bank, they will help you. But remember the other part of this bill is that they are going to hold banks more responsible and therefore expect restrictions.
  7. The challenge is that there are not enough qualified non DEI WOKE people toi cover the jobs. Look at the substandard education system. MIT and other universities are too busy with DEI and woke policies. Meanwhile, you have kids in India or even here who are doing really well and developing and coding in the new crypto works with Ethereum and Solana and such, while American kids just want to play the games. These people on true H1B make a difference. He wants to get rid of the people who walk across the border or take a boat across the Great Lakes, not the people who come here legally and serve a purpose other than cheap labour for hotels. Would you rather have your kid taught math or science in school by a kid that got a degree in racial studies or underwater backet weaving or a person from India that actually knows the science and how it all fits in and has won awards studying science or math.
  8. And the Thai government is going to give every retired Farabg a 10-year visa with no restrictions.
  9. Considering that brittania used to rule the sea why is there not more of a presence in the channel and southern region
  10. This may seem harsh but do you allow kids to play with guns setting their own limits Most Thai people especially older have no idea about mobile apps except what their kids tell them. They are so used to being told what to they do so willingly and treating everything as gospel This ruke protects them from themselves
  11. How many Thai pay cash for car. Again we have to remember that we are dealing with early 21 century thinking and 22 century technology
  12. Most cdn banks have limits on what can be withdrawn or tfr. If you need it changed you just have to call them.
  13. Didn't you realize that every Thai teen is rich What they need to do is teach people how to not be stupid
  14. Starmer is already planning a trip to the U.S. during the same time period
  15. Aww young one you now see the plan
  16. Hopefully it gets resolved quickly
  17. Thanks every once in a while need to book hotel. Through agoda or buy something online. Pay it off immediately . Trying to get rid of cdn card
  18. If ,@georgealbert is correct it probably met standards. It's too bad someone diedy condolences to the families hell of a way to start a new year. Have to wonder if cigarettes were involved
  19. In most cases, if the person is domestic, they want to destroy it. Security. However, they also realize that in the event that a person is outside the country or is travelling a lot they may need the old passport to get stamps copied. It actually makes sense when you consider that most people who get a passport are doing so for a holiday and not relocation. If you were living in Aus full-time, would you need your old passport?
  20. Willing to bet that Aus will need it soon as well to many people can say too many things. It is like all the people that used to tel their embassies that they made a million baht a month and got the letters LOL
  21. Canada is still allowed to use the lettter and I just attach my bank statements from Canada. The embassy does not take my word for it LOL they want to see the bank statements. il the CDN Dollar improves I think we are one fo the few. Going to have to start building my banks account up to the magic number LOL But waiting until the CDN Dollar improves IS THERE A FORM FOR CHANGING PASSPORTS
  22. @DrJack54 Just a follow up got informed that my passport is ready to pick up Monday. They are also going to help me with my letter for immigration hopefully Question Is there any form I need to do beforehand for them to move everything to my new passport? I like tohve all the paperwork done before I go there seems to make it easier at PT immigration. Thanks
  23. Just think, when they get rid of D O T, he will be the next Prime Minister of Thailand.
  24. Isn't this the same thing they stated last year. I think they take it out change the dates and republish
