Citizenship or Permanent Residency?

Do you have a Thai Passport?  

No. I was told to go to my embassy and cancel my existing Citizen ship...

so I desided to stay "Farrang"  and save 97500 Baht.
(The 9700 Baht for applying was lost)

P.s

My contry allow dual citizenship

And I really do not think the yearly visa extension and the tm47 is a big issue anyway.
I just  wanted to be able to work without needing a workpermit....
 

The requirements for PR and Citizenship is almost the same...
Except you have to speak better Thai and sing the national Song for the citizen ship...

Thw stop of new citizen ship since 2006 I do not belive. since I was invited by RTN to take the citizen test in 2014.
And I had a long meeting with a friend in RTN that handles the application for Citizen ship,

who also recommented me to move to BKK before I apply, since the processing time in BKK is faster.

I think there are many people who listen to "fake" news.

Immigration once told me NOT to listen to people in the internet.
They told me to come and ask them instead

Cheers . I'm not saying you are wrong as there is lots of disinformation on the internet about Visa/residency/Citizen

 

This is what I read

 

In all cases you will also have to fulfil the following conditions to apply for Thai citizenship:

1. You must have lived in Thailand continuously, for at least five years before applying.
2. Be a permanent resident.
3. Be 18 years old or older and have reached legal majority in your country of origin.

That is correct

You have to Stay on long term visa (1 year) If you do a visa run with not teentry pemit the 5 year will be reset.

Thai wife and children make it easier.
If you have a Thai f\wife you can actually apply after 3 years.

I now this because I went through the test at RTP in Bangkok.
(But the law can have changed)

P.s.
I got 72 points but desided not to apply because the RTP required me to terminate my original citizenship.
(Maybe because I did not offer any tea money 5555)

Getting PR status seems to be the first stumbling block one extended 3-year non-immigrant visa, not multiple visas for example

PR is not required before getting Citizenship....

My Thai friend moved to BKK so his chinese wife could become Thai citizen...

Only cost him 400000 Baht and took less than a year 

Up country he told me, it would cost 1.2 Mill and take 2-3 Years....

TIT

P.s

I took the citizen ship test in Bangkok 2 years ago and passed.....

If you want to kill somebody bye a pitbull and pay the fine after it has done its job....
No need for tea money or prison ... This is Thailand...

Brown envelopes are addictive... If you take one you can not say no to the

next...

The problem is not student teasing freshman...

The problem is that Thailand wan to keep up an image which they can not in an open modern world.

Only solution is to close the internet or wake up and smell the fact about Thailand and accept that the world will see your true face.... ... and change little by little...

(or become the HUB of hypocrisy)

Wonder if Farrang and Thais will pay the same for the tickets

Dear Mr. electric chief

We belive you..

Dear Mr. PM...

Please have a look at the labour department. Work permits are getting really expensive in Bangkok.....

Never mind "SIN CITY"............ Focus on this........ Pattaya will lose many more 'high end' tourists from this 'stinky' publicity............. PATTAYA is so 'nasty' and it is not the bars that is doing it.......  Wake up, PATTAYA........

"You can fool some of the people ALL the time..... and fool ALL of the people part of the time...... BUT you CANNOT fool ALL OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME"...................

In Thailand you can fool all People ALL of the time.... sad but it is the true

There is a reason why Thailand smell so bad..... 

I guess it is better to crash a  training jet that a armoured fighter jet  

keep up with the good work....

According to (August 2016)

http://thedailyviz.com/2016/08/25/charting-world-alcohol-consumption-how-much-does-each-country-drink/

Thailand rank no 73 in the world....

I guess numbers are easy to manipulate ...

Do not worry Australia....You are no 23 
 

Personally I no longer notice siren and blinking light, since so many civilian Thais use it.

I normally move the foot to the break paddle and prepare for emergency beak, when I
see a white wan. Since most times it is an insane mini-wan chauffeur.

Maybe our PM should ask the police to do something about the many civilian Thais who use blinking light and siren.....

Mondays headline, honest taxi driver hands back wallet with 200.000 baht to Chinese tourist.

Why the fuss that he was driving a fake taxi?

Most of the so-called taxis on the roads are fake.

True.

I many times see that the driver is not the person on the taci license in the front window...
Then I just say "Lyme sanyaa... ko tood"...
And try another Taxi...

I understand they need to earn money for their famely and I sometimes have to hail 3 cabs before the driver say yes...
Not a problem for me, If I was VIP I would have a police escord....

P.s
I do not like driving with taxies because they always try to cheat....
And you can do nothing

So we learn:

You can not hit a dog but it is okay to have sex with it.

Was the dog puying or putyai?

But remember....NO sex while driving 

Any country where police do not care have the same problems

5000 Men... Lets say 100 men/year = 50 Years.........

or 25 years if it was a double dates......
