I changed this year. I already confirmed with Jomtien that I needed to adhere to the criteria for the June 2022 approval ie money in the bank - 800k for 3 months after and 400k the remainder of the time. I also had to evidence 12 X 65k pm leading up to June 2023 (evidenced by a special form of certification from K Bank).

Dreamers rarely achieve anything. Nothing wrong with aspirations but fairy tales are for fictional story books. Feet on the ground and a practical approach to developing/evolving the country will likely reap better rewards in the long-term.

Three particular favourites:- You ain’t seen nothing yet - Bachman Turner Overdrive Born to be Wild - Steppenwolf Rebel Rebel - David Bowie They all seem to make me drive faster.

You must be blissful in your ignorance.

Please don’t confuse ‘off limits’ with ‘not an area of interest’.

To the best of my knowledge I have never met an educated Thai woman. I mean well educated, not someone who has acquired a degree and is working as a teacher or in an office. They are not obvious in the areas that I ‘hangout’ and I have certainly not been interested in seeking them out. I have met some smart, switched on women - but largely uneducated. I am content with women who are kind, calm and caring - and have an open mind towards things that are non-Thai. If I wanted intellect I would probably look towards my own culture.

Well, they are putting the road network in. Give me Utapao over Don Muaeng anyway.

Of course we can. It is just remainers who want to believe we can’t.

Does anyone have experience of such procedures in Thailand?

Pattaya was popularised by the Yanks, but now it's like little Britain. I agree. A definite improvement.

What date did she arrive in the UK and was that with the return ticket from Dublin to Bangkok? What date did she enter Ireland? I really cannot see any issues if she entered on her UK visa and is staying legitimately in Ireland. However, if you have any concerns at all you should direct your question to the airline. Any problem is likely to arise at check in rather than exiting immigration.

Don’t hold your breath! The Labour Party showed no sign in the past of wanting to remove the freeze. No government has the desire, or incentive, to change the status quo.

Seriously? You think in Thailand an English worded version of a Will would prevail. Good luck getting Probate with that Nang Rong or Kanthalarak. The English version is solely for the Farangs information and to allow translation into a Thai Will.

As long as you don’t mind it being in Thai. Fluent in Thai script are you…….if not, you will have no idea what it says. Not necessarily an issue, just flagging it.

I don't think that I would credit Prayuth with that. It is certainly a weak criticism of Prayuth as the inequality has been built into the culture/system for centuries. It also grew in Thaksin's time - obscenely in his favour as it happened.

I am a British citizen living in Thailand. Next year I am considering spending up to 5 months in Spain. This takes me outside the 90 days in 180 days rule; what are my options?

Absolute rubbish. Forex ..I have been waiting years for the Baht collapse that hasn't happened. Yanks talking about 40, Brits 50.... Tourism is on the way back - and it was much higher in Prayuts time than Thaksins. Huge road building in the last 10 years..... something Thaksin only ever talked about.

You don’t have a Thai SIM card?

I think you will find that SCB consider it a forward step. (you must smile when you see yourself described as a ‘newbie’)

Did you really find it necessary to use capitals when correcting someone who said that they “thought” it was 90 days?

How?

Nobody cares, he served his term. Don’t like him but Thailand didn’t do badly under his tenure.

Thank you ????

I don’t understand why a published income method is not accepted. Are you suggesting that EVERYONE using Hua Hin immigration office can only use the money in the bank method?
