  1. I believe that Thailand has to do what ever it can to discourage foreign ownership to avoid the ridiculous prices that are paid for property in the west . The idea of leasing land for 99 years and at the end of the lease the ownership goes to the government will mean that not too many would want to get involved.
  2. Often a country is considered rich by how the old people are cared for . With pension payments of 600 baht a month here in Thailand you could say it will be 20 years minimum before the country can be considered rich and free of poverty.
  3. I just came back after a visit to Chiang Mai Immigration to ask about the combination method for a 12 month extension. The answer was that they do not accept the combination method . Simple as that .
  4. Most western men here in Thailand have a relationship with a Thai Woman Pattaya sex tourists are short term and a small percentage of the scene in Thailand.
  5. Try asking your insurance company , thats presuming you have the Rolex insured. They may want an extra premium for wearing the watch out in Bangkok. I think London would be a more risky place my self.
  6. I am pleased to say I do not hear western foreigners refering to Thai women as whores. Perhaps it is the company you keep.
  7. I just hope that the police look into all people present at the womans house . A child of three can be coerced into giving false testimony. The authorities need to be investigated as well for incarcerating the childs parents and then leaving their three year old child with an alcoholic aunt.
  8. Thank you for your help Rob. Much conflicting advice around on the the financial requirments . I will take a trip into the immigration office today and will report back what I learn about the combination method .
  9. A tiled roof is not waterproof . You need a secondry roof to be secure on a leakage. Problem with a secondry roof is your cost of building the housse increases .
  10. What has your experiance been to know what route to take for knowing who obtains the most sex ?
  11. How can you obtain a lease for 99 years when the maximum is 30 years???
  12. More to remain in Thailand if you are below a certain age.
  13. How do you observe other people's bank accounts? Or are you purely working on rumour
  14. Maybe have to have a man and a woman to achieve a green card as you call it
  15. Yes, I agree , equal rights should apply. I am not sure how immigration will tackle wanting to see there matrimonial togetherness.
  16. Are we going to see a surge in scam marriages in Thailand With this new development. With males able to marry males i think we will.
  17. A minimum wage is designed to stop unscrupulous employers pay even less . Be a good idea to expose companies that are only willing to pay the minimum. I have read that in the UK there is only a small percentage of employers pay the minimum due to market forces demanding them to pay more. What percentage of Thais are on the minimum wage ? With wealthy business owners attitude I would guess the percentage is high
  18. There has been a significant reduction in pork production in Thailand since the African Swine Disease outbreak. Many small operators have dropped out of the business due to high cost of feed . Imports can stabilise the price of the peoples stable diet of pork. The minister of commerce does not mention what the real problems are.
  19. Correct , the money arrives each month except not always the same amount received in baht. I appreciate your advice on speaking with the Chiang Mai immigration yet all the same it is good to learn from other people's experience and have as much understanding of how they operate on the subject of combination extensions. Thank you for your reply
