    Dumb and dumber. About as pretentious as driving a Rolls Royce or Bentley in the west. Some models sell for more than 10 million. 

     

    I recently bought a new car. One of the ways I looked at value, was to measure the cost of that same car in the US. Mine was almost identical. Otherwise, would have felt like a sucker.

     

    And at this point in time, who wants to feel like they are sponsoring a failed regime? 

    what did you buy?

    "if you have good health insurance, you are ok in thailand." That is the whole point, I know there will be exceptions to this, but there will be instances of people (like me for instance) who have spent their whole life looking after themselves from a health point of view and have no existing conditions.

    We could take out health insurance at very highly inflated premiums, paying into it for years with no claims, and still getting hit with increases every so often, then eventually told you are too old and the insurance is cancelled, especially after pocketing our premiums for years.

    I agree with you. Im not in perfect health but dont have health insurance. I just pay the bill myself at a private hospital. I have accident insurance at the pink bank via my debit card. It only cost me 1200 and I did a claim for 19000 after a running injury. They paid up. But big things I will just continue to pay myself. I also have SS health insurance after being a teacher ages ago. I can go and use the big public hospital for free if I want. I think paying private health ins is a waste of money

    There's no places up here in Northern Sakon Nakhon to get vaccinated.  We've got two elderly sisters living with us.

    There adamant about not getting Sinovac.  I have a feeling thats what the North Eastern Issan area will be left with.

     

     

    Tell these fools to get the sinovac now and then a pfizer booster towards the end of this yr.....

    If you don't mind maybe you can elaborate this a little.

    Can someone get a work permit without business visa and/or without company?

    Yes, read other comments I made. If you wife doesnt have a company and just pays personal tax, you can add your name to the license for the business and then apply for a WP

    employed on a proper contract of employment by a Thai registered company.

    Incorrect. Your statement is incomplete. You should add ' or one can have a 'proper' contract with the wife. Just download a template from the internet. My wife and I do not have a company and I got a WP

    You have to work for a company and that company will know what to do. You need lots of documents and if all documents are correct then it's no problem to get work permit and business visa. 

    You're incorrect. We do not have a company structure at all. My wife pays tax as an individual every 6 months and I successfully got a WP. I know of a few other cases of westerners with restaurants who did it this way. In their cases, they just added their names to the wifes license.

    Are you working for a Thailand registered company or partnership with a registered capital of at least 2 million baht and 4 Thai employees?

    To be technically correct you could also say.... Or is your wife paying tax as an 'Individual' (ie personal tax) and applying for a WP that way'. This is possible as I have just done it. We do not have a company structure with our business.
