Wouldn't call a kid with Rwandan parents a normal English kid. Who knows what acts of mind shattering violence his parents experienced/inflicted/endured from their home country in the Hutu/Tutsi conflicts.
These people probably don't speak central Thai as a first language, so find it hard to understand when accented.
I've become used to Lanna Thai speakers, and find it much harder to understand Bangkok Thai speakers.
I see no bots .............
The proliferation of trolls is due to the relaxed rules this forum now follows.
As far as I can see

Well done George, CharlieH, the rest of the team and Thaiger
And I'm a worse person now having realised being nice gets you nothing.

I don't think it's clear anyone wants foreigners living but not working in Thailand to pay income tax in Thailand.

I don't care who wins the election.
And I refuse to vote in any election unless they provide a 'no suitable candidate' box for me to tick and for them to count.
As for Donald Trump, not a suitable candidate IMHO same as Ms. Harris.
I never give my kids free money, they get paid for working (school).
No work = no money.
He currently has 13kbht in savings from money he didn't spend.
It's amazing all the Tax accountants that can predict the future tax rules for foreigners.
Meanwhile the Thai government changes it's mind every week or so.
Ganja ...... legal or not.
VISA ....... 30 days, 60 days, 180 days
10k wallet ........ maybe
MFP ban or keep
