I have spent millions of baht here over the last 12 years and I do respect the system and the culture, however I do believe that countries should present Thailand with reciprocal arrangements when their citizens want to reside in other countries. Being a Brit I believe that Thais should be presented with the same rules and restrictions if they choose to live in the Uk. Money in the bank every year 90 day reporting, can’t buy land etc. if the majority of countries did this I think you would see a dramatic shift in Thai immigration policy.
