Great idea, send rent through the roof, then have a crisis where ordinary working people can't afford rent. But who cares, the economy will be bigger.

I wonder how he managed to do that? And fearing for his safety?

Glad to hear it, ridiculous ruling.

What's the world coming to when you can't even take a gun onto an airplane.

I haven't tried it, but when I saw the 'Pay like a local' QR payment feature in the Wise app, I looked into it. You can use it in some other SEA countries, but not yet Thailand. I'm sure Wise are asking to be allowed access to that feature of PromptPay, but not yet granted.

The Wise app already has QR payment functionality - https://wise.com/us/blog/qr-code-payment

Now all we need is for Thailand to allow Wise QR payments to use PromptPay, they already accept instant PromptPay bank transfers from Wise.

Lucky, lucky woman.

Could have entered on a tourist visa, and then got an education visa.

100kg stuffed up your ass might get a bit tight.

For a bitter ex-girlfriend, seeing this story hit the news is the reward.

I know people who have already applied for the DTV. It's not so easy. They submitted all documents and they were requested to provide much more. Official tax documents and such. And yes, it's a 5-year visa, and you can come and go as you like for 5 years. Every time you enter, you get stamped for another 180 days.

Wipe that breed out once and for all.

I found those things notable, too. I imagined that if they were poisoned, someone must have been making a point to get everyone to drink the tea at the same time. Like, "hey, there's this new tea that you absolutely must try".

In the UK, if you win £100 million in the Euromillions or whatever, you get £100 million tax-free. And I just looked it up, and I was wrong, you don't pay tax on poker winnings even if it is your job. I thought I read somewhere that professional poker players had to pay tax.

Speeding up their plans by 10- years is life-changing.

Gambling winnings are tax-free in the UK. Unless gambling is your profession, such as a poker player. For regular punters, you don't pay tax on winnings.

If this happened to me, the #1 thing I'd try to ensure, is that my mug and personal business stayed out of the news.

Time inside must have aged him, looks closer to 50 than 30.

Yea, and they weren't complaining or trying to buy beans. But everyone likes to chime in without knowing what the frick they're talking about.

Nope. It's what you get with poor governance.

Typical French name.

You said. He's not incarcerated in Thailand. He's in Scotland.

How? And what has that got to do with this case? Considering he was apprehended and held in Scotland?

When I click on a thread, it takes between 8 and 15 seconds to go to it. Also, the only way I ever come to this forum, is via the emails. However, since the Thaiger takeover, when I click the links in the emails, it takes much longer to load, again about 15 seconds. Also, every time I visit the forum, I am logged out. Like I am obviously logged in now, but if I go to my email right now and click on a link from the AN email, it will bring me to the forum, but I will be logged out again. No doubt this is murdering engagement.
