  1. It depends on personal circumstances. In my case I am a retiree, I will not be travelling outside Thailand, and I am happy to permanently leave whatever amount is required in a dedicated bank account, currently 800k baht. A retirement visa works well for me.
  2. Well done that man. Good to hear about people caring for animals.
  3. First arrived in Thailand in 1962 aged 21. Business visits and holidays in Thailand during the 1970s, lived and worked here in the 1980s. Retired to Thailand in 1993. Married to a Thai lady for 40 years. Have a nice day.
  4. November 19. I made my 90 day report and obtained an annual extension in person at CW. In at 0830 hrs, out at 1030 hrs. No appointment, no agent. Fast, friendly service, no hassle.
  5. Just watch almost any day of the week.
  6. The worst tasting tea bags of all time. Good riddance. Plenty of far better alternatives available at supermarkets throughout Thailand.
  7. Because of main stream media support for Hamas, eg BBC, CNN.
  8. The disgraceful scapegoating of Lucy Letby is another example of the depths to which hospital managements go to protect themselves.
  9. Jail the dog killer, for a long time.
  10. As an ex-smoker I'm not bothered by adults smoking or vaping around me. I do not support bans in general, with the exception of seriously dangerous offences such as murder, rape and theft.
  11. Abortion after birth ? Who should kill the baby ? The doctors, the parents, or someone else ?
  12. A very strange comment. It sounds as though the Aussie needs to be in care. Meantime the cost of the damage he has caused will need to be evaluated, and compensation agreed. It will be complicated given the difficult matter of assessing how far the offender is responsible for his actions.
  13. Ongoing reports concerning the ICC suggest a grimy, self-serving organisation. It's stated objectives are fine, but the reality leaves a lot to be desired.
  14. Yes indeed. Although it should not be so a lot will depend on his background and connections.
  15. The Hunter pardon is a distraction. Way more significant is the issue of how the Biden family got rich on the back of their involvements In the former eastern-bloc countries.
  16. Thank you. young man.
  17. First visited Thailand in 1962, aged 21. After work postings in West Africa and the Middle EastI I lived and worked in Bangkok during the 1980s, later being transferred to Taiwan. Retired to Thailand with my Thai wife in 1993, and have lived here ever since. with occasional trips to the USA and Europe. Have a nice day.
  18. Not a sex tourist, but a smart-ass, evidently.
  19. How do you 'bang' any form of life in Bangkok if you are living in Cambodia ?
  20. Agreed. False breasts are a turn off and, more importantly, can lead to medical complications. This guy should advise his partner against enlargement.
  21. I have to say that those British women seem to be making a lot of fuss about very little. An older generation would have put the molester in his place in double quick time, and moved on.
  22. My advice to people contemplating a permanent move to Thailand is not to expect it to be a cheap place to live. It once was. but not any more.
