Just because something was forecast doesn't necessarily mean it will come to pass. Many, if not most people haven't a clue of what is happening, so consider it a wake-up call.

This smells like a project of the World Economic Forum (WEF) (C40.org) and it will end up being a death trap where people are forced to eat bugs and live in mud based "homes", banned from eating meat or dairy, unable to travel, unable to own private transportation and only allowed to purchase 3 items of new clothing a year. Right now the WEF, UN, IMF and the EU are developing mandatory digital IDs, ESG scoring, and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) like communist China to control every aspect of everyone's life. If people fall for this, they will end up slaves until they are no longer useful, then disposed of.

I am just telling you what I was told at the time.

About 2 years ago at CW, I asked what happens if one is too ill to go in person for an extension of stay based on retirement. I was told by the IO that someone could represent me with some kind of medical document. No specifics were mentioned, but the IO probably meant a Bai Rap Rong Pat ใบรับรองแพทย์ (medical certificate)), but my status would change to something like "Sick", and if, for example, I happened to be grandfathered (in Thailand continuously since before Oct 1998), I would lose that status and if I recovered, I would have to start all over again under current rules as if I had entered the country for the first time. That would mean I would have to bring in B65K/month or put 800K in the bank, instead of 20K/month or 200K in the bank under the grandfather clause. I did not ask for any more specifics at the time and the above is all I remember. It is also possible that the medical certificate must be a certified copy issued from a government hospital. My only advice would be to ask your local Immigration Office before you get too sick to report in person.
