You can't trust your 6yo to hand you a package?

When you're 70 you probably won't want to do much. Which is what a lot of posters seem to be missing.

I'd still be here, same house, same woman but maybe a new car. I'm OK with my life and what I have.

Almost all that want 500bht for a prescription.

Meth tablets are 25bht and available everywhere, why would kids want cannabis @ 500bht/gm?

Do most foreign countries even have access to Thai script? I think not!

Slightly off topic, I used to do time trials cycling from CM Zoo to Wat Doi Suthep. As a male I was positioned at a bit over 600th. As a female I was in the top 10. That's a massive difference.

Only primary (6 years) and lower high school (3 years) is free, 9 years in total. https://www.talkeducation.com/news/thailand-s-schooling-system-everything-you-need-to-know

Because it's Ladyboys doing all the robbing. And they mostly aren't transgender but transvestites.

Use WISE between your UK bank and Thailand Bank. No need for your UK debit card to be used at all. Pay for everything with your Thai debit card + sa-kan QR/promptpay. My UK bank sees ZERO foreign transactions.

Very cheap this month, big discount ..........

There is an attendance requirement at all Thai government schools. The girl I took in couldn't progress to her next year as she skipped too much school. Yes, it's true, everyone that turns up gets a passing grade during their free government education which ends age 15 (but that's still only 61% of students from 2019 UNICEF study). At that point 66% of the remaining pupils are culled from the schools as unsuitable for more education and those that continue must pay. Less than 29% of Thai students graduate high school at age 18 (2019 study). https://data.unicef.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Thailand-Education-Fact-Sheets-2019-EN.pdf

Would point out the majority voted against the general, the policies of the other parties was largely irrelevant. The MFP has a list of 45 bills they want enacted, saying that cannabis was the important one in that little lot is disingenuous at best.

And how much will they have to pay to get those permissions?

no welfare for single moms = cheap sex. What I don't understand about EVs is why are Thai prices 30% more than Chinese prices?

I thought their position was mainly about getting their share of the prescription charges.

Civilized countries always end up importing food from the more backward countries. Even Rome got a lot of it's food from Egypt. As for those of us choosing to live in Thailand, More to do with cheap housing and no welfare for single moms.

"1. Summer storms are generally 2 – 3 times stronger than normal wind and capable of toppling a building." But oddly enough they happen every summer.

It's actually the 'green energy' brigade pushing up UK electricity prices. Windmills and solar require huge subsidies.

When I arrived in 2009 petrol for my scooter was 33bht/ltr, today I paid 35bht/ltr. That's a 7% rise in 14 years.

Surprised 30% of Thais could afford a s/h scooter let alone a car that costs more than their house.

I think they were confusing Thais and Vietnamese. So not racist but ignorant!

I predict pound will be at 45bht by the end of the year. Inflation falling IMF backtracking.

Vietnam won't want you. Best to go to Cambodia or Philippines. Personally I'd use VFS in CM or BK for your new passport (currently 9 weeks) and a 60 day extension to visit wife if required.
