It is so sad in 2025 that many Thai woman are so shallow they don't have the motivation to earn money themselves. This man must pay mentally is so old fashioned and woman like this are money parasites. What educated, intelligent reasonable looking man would do this. I doubt if money is her main goal she is deep in emotions and does not know true love. Just another whore trying her luck.

as soon as you mention Lamborghini and Liberia in the same sentence you know that there's a monkey business there as importing cars to Thailand reeks of corruption and malfeasance, although 30 years is a bit harsh but Thailand don't look kindly on people who are short change them on what they owed.

No one person got 30 years. Read the post.

.

Does the tax apply to Retirement Visa holders as many have been living without paying Thai tax. Even for more affluent foreigners with businesses overseas this will mean a large deduction and some are here because of the past tax free status. Is it being enforced and are tax forms in Thai?

So, visiting her country of birth and using that countries health service? I know that's a no-no for the UK's NHS. (Have to wait 3 years for returning residents.)

Rubbish - https://www.gov.uk/guidance/using-the-nhs-when-you-return-to-live-in-the-uk

Have many Thais left Phuket?

Surely many bar owners have gone back to their original countries. 

How long have all the bars been closed in Phuket? Have many closed down forever? How is life compared to before Covid?

Not really. Which one is the loser (and a definition of this word please) the smug one who speaks the word or the one who is spoken about. Never knew it was a common phrase so I suppose that says it all about me.????

Zzzzzzz

How many times have I read that tourism was/is a small percentage of the Thai economy, Phuket, Samui, Phang Nga, Bangkok, he has a few other places to visit to look at the small percentage. How much of this small percentage goes back to Isarn? Scams etc are on the internet now, including in Chinese. What is plan B? Phuket has seen it heyday of tourism. How many Chinese visit hookers and most Thai hookers will not go with "Asian" men. Hhmm. Plan B.

Anyone living in, and at all conversant with Thai practice, would be aware that wages here are always discussed in monthly terms. There was no confusion for the vast majority reading the article.

Some lazy readers are always too quick to seek out any petty reason to criticize. 

In developed countries the time interval would be quoted. Citizens from these countries deserve such a reference point. Do you suggest "guessing" is the way to go forward? 

Telephone the Israeli Embassy in Bangkok and ask how to get to No 1 in the world to vaccinate their population like Israel has. Israel managed this before the richest, most developed countries in the world. Ask them how and if they tell you then copy.

I like to think of agents as just a police check tax. 

 

Most people using a THAI agent will probably be wisked off to the immigration office, photo taken and collect passport a while later. During that time the immigration dept can quite easily see if that person is wanted, has a fake passport or throws up any red flags. And they could be arrested. They are in fact just checking the person out - and you are paying to be checked out - expensively.

 

I doubt anyone that uses a THAI agent wants to draw attention to themselves.

 

It's the ones that do not get visa extensions - or use agents for them - that are the real issues for Thailand in my opinion

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So your logic is the people that go themself to immigration are the problem! Then if they were wanted they are arrested in person and be in any location having given their passport to an agent. Hhmm not sure what do the others think about this cunning observation?

I have had my vaccination and after 3 weeks I took a Covid antibody test and tested positive, so glad I am now immune.

I would say that a bigger problem is calling other people losers. And I still feel the same as I did last night; I was being ironic. Also understated and self-effacing. 

 

Ever wondered why loser is such a common phrase among non-Thais about other non-Thais in Thailand.

Not sure how many countries will want to take the time for this and Thailand is known for copying and fakes. However some Thais think they are the best so maybe Thailand will lead the world in vaccine passports.....not convinced. Advanced countries will have the data attached to flight bookings and Immigration so that you can't board a plane without staff swiping your passport and the modern world it's all linked the same as if you are wanted by the Police etc. Australia has been doing this for at least a decade as everyone (except the Aussies) needs a visa before entering and how else would immigration know before you book the plane and you don't hear of people arriving in Australia without a visa, only some getting denied entry and their visa is cancelled. There is also the possibility of an App that is far more secure. That book looks easy to copy and about 20 years out of date. Thai are making around 50% of people redundant, another reason I think it will be at least 5 years before the numbers are anything like before. Most Chinese have not even had the first vaccination. I have had my first one and also tested for antibodies and I have them so immune.

On behalf of all the other losers I/We can only apologise. 

 

But I have been drinking so I may feel different in the morning. 

Another problem with non-Thais living in Thailand, alcohol.

You people are rubbish. Someone has died and if a foreigner, their relatives and friends might read this. Someone most likely had a brutal end to their life and you make amusement for your own gain. Is this what Thailand has done to you? Would you be the same in the USA, UK, Australia before you come to live in Thailand. You people need to look yourself in the mirror and see what you have become, losers!

Lucky that they are offered this option, and aren't getting deported for being on overstay or being told that they have to leave.

Where exactly can he go, with the airports and borders closed. Geez, think before you become a keyboard warrior!! Also have some compassion!

Netherlands have spikes too yet there are no more in hospitals and no more dying either, the real difference; they test even its known to have 30-50% mistakes on results. Anyway, much more jobs will be gone soon enough, as a lot of money indirectly comes from foreigners and tourism related business. 

 

Actually most of Thailand seem to only consist of endless repeats of optical stores, motorbike and car shops, 7/11s and maybe a few more. Sometimes I wonder if there is a conspiracy behind the population count of near 70 million here, as you almost never see any of them at all. I mean even central Bangkok is like a ghost town at night nowadays, the capital with millions of people....

Credit where credit is due optical stores, motorbike and car shops, 7/11 and a massage hole in the wall shop with a room behind as a knocking shop. When I lived in Thailand I had to visit many "massage" places not to get a happy ending. My girlfriend did not believe me and told me, all man want it. I said "Tiruk" only with you. She never believed me.

Have worked it out:

 

Group 1 people who are easily fleeced as they have no option but to come

 

Group 2 lucrative groups who have a choice therefore much harder to fleece

 

Seems about right and par for the course....

I can't see where there is a mention of increasing the Visa costs. You sound very fed up in Thailand, maybe time to go somewhere else.
