Been living in Bangkok ten years on Non O-A and no home checks. Just do 90-day reports.* But it's a thing if married to a Thai? * now on LTR Visa with 1-yr. reports.

Those terrorists being the Thai military? With UK permission, Thailand invaded The Kingdom of Patani and subjugated its Malay Muslim population to Buddhist governance. Since when is one's country The Kingdom of Patani not a safe Haven for its citizens?

A falsehood directed at a particular target intended to defame, discredit, demonitize, rob, injure etc. the target, ie., foreigners.

It seems to me that IKEA builds things to be disassembled. If you want stronger bonds in addition metal fastners, use a wood glue such as for example Titebond, Gorilla wood Glue or Elmer's Carpenter's Wood Glue in addition to metal fastners.

Looking at www.xe.com , about 1 year ago 1 baht = 2.35 ruble, today 1 baht = 2.18 ruble.

This accusation sounds like a scam against foreigners.

"vetted by the government's legal advisory body" Did this body advise that Prayut's coup was unconstitutional or accept that Prayut was not PM 2014-2018? Essentially the PM vets himself. Funny how this bill which corrodes freedom of speech even further surfaces prior to the next election.

Avoid overstay. Go back home to native country before overstay, renew passport, apply for new visa at Thai Embassy or on entry into Thailand?

Add Criminal Defamation that can be charged by the military and any government agency or official, public broadcasting mandatory self censorship, civilians tried in military courts, military monitoring of "Fake News" on all social media, repeated use of State of Emergency that by passes the Constitution. The list goes on that makes Russia look like a full democracy.

https://www.visualcapitalist.com/countries-by-share-of-of-global-economy 2022: using GDP data from the IMF. US ranks no. 1 despite all the political nonsense. US is energy independent, energy exporter, high employment, etc. US workforce is the third largest (in need of a vacation), second youngest, most educated in years of schooling, and most productive ( in need of a vacation) among major powers. 11/21/2019 Top 10 countries includes Germany, Italy, France and UK with GDP's at about 10% of US.

"enter 13-digital ID number" means typically Thai citizen. Hopefully, using online app. will allow foreigners to use passport no. Personally, I'll not bother and use passport/Thai drivers license.

Passage of this bill that will further restrict journalist reporting? Must be an election coming.

Rama 2, Samae Dam, Bang Khun Thian: 158

Keep in mind these kinds of index rankings are relative to all countries in the ranking. For example, in 2021 Thailand's Democracy Index ranking improved more than any other country in the world! One can argue that when other Asian countries slip (ie,, Myanmar) in the idex score, Thailand's index will improve if it does nothing for improvement - just maintains the status quo. Personally I find both the Corruption and Democracy indexes driven more by forward looking expectations than by fact-based statistics.

Maybe this is why Prayut wants F-35s. They won't be detected during personal use.

I Agee what Purdy says. But in the future ask for national ID, drivers license, charnote proving identity; address of residence, phone number, Selfie and any social media accounts like LINE or FACEBOOK. Such information might be useful if you have to file a police report, if only raises the severity/ number of potential crime(s), ie Computer Act and Personal Protection Act.

If Thailand Post is nearby, send by EMS in the morning (tracking number in receipt), will arrive same day and you can have receipt documented no matter the actual arrival date, missed by immigration or lost. Remember to include self addressed-stamped return envelope-10 baht.

From what I've seen from these AI's, they lack knowledge of or not programmed to consider the affect of religion in answers. Most Thais are Buddhist and thus believe in Karma: 'The result of any form of action is not determined by not only by the act but also the intent.' Sometimes karma is used incorrectly as an excuse for inaction or error. It gives excuse for not thinking or caring.

And here I thought such symptoms might be limited to military leadership.

I'm curious how the donations by each individual (not by table!) comply with section 72 of the Organic Law on Political Parties B.E. 2560 to avoid party dissolution: "The prohibition of the political parties from receiving donations of money, assets or any other benefits which come from an illigimate source." It would seem reasonable to at least expect the Election Commission to provide such assurance to the public that there was no irregularity in PP's fund raising event. The EC has the authority to ban PP from the next election if any irregularity (there are four categories of default under the law) is found with regard to PP's fund raising dinner event. While I don't expect PP to actually be banned no matter any perceived violations given its "special relationship" with lawmaking, the resulting political dance might prove consequential to the electorate.

Based on "right" is a slogan but not reality. State welfare is funded by the State. As such it competes for funding for the military, Buddhist temples, massive infrastructure projects going to the same corporations, etc. And supplemented by political arbitrary one-time "Gifts." Income equality is squeezed by increasing wealth of the elite (so-called 1%). Where is the Right here? There needs to be more funding for the former by less priority to the latter as well as more funding, ie., by higher taxation of the wealthy individuals and large corporations. The mechanisms are known, ie., earned income credit, higher minimum wages, more trade union power, more elected progressive politicians.

"Trust but verify." Ok, who supervises the RTP and Chairman of the National Police Committee? PM Prayut.

For what's worth, Criteria for Consideration of Granting an Alien's Extension of Stay in the Kingdom Attachment to the Order of Royal Thai Police no. 654/2564 dated December 27, 2021: Reason of necessity 2.22 In case of retirement (2) An alien, who has been granted Non-Immigrant Visa "O-A" under the criterion for consideration (6), will be permitted to stay according to the insurance policy term. Each permission shall be granted for no more than 1 year. Criteria for consideration (6.2) In case of purchasing foreign insurance or having non-Thai social welfare, it must be certified by a foreign embassy in Thailand or a signature of authorized person on submitted documents (Notary) must be certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of an applicant. This partial instruction comes from an instruction page given to me at CW in August 2022 by IO reviewing my non O-A visa extention request for August 2022- August 2023.

It seems to me that most of the direct foreign investment in the EEC (totalling 48 billion baht Jan.-Nov. 2022) is channeled through the Thai government. The EEC Policy Committee composed of 15 ministers and other government agencies is chaired by PM Prayut. 'The thing about so many cooks in the kitchen is that there is so many fingers in the pot.'

No more annual bank letters. For Americans no more annual Foreign Bank Account Reporting using 800,000 baht balance method.
