  1. I Witnessed two swimmers in trouble yesterday resulting in one death. Two elderly men (Not sure if they were traveling together) got into trouble yesterday with 1 meter waves and red flag alert. One barely escaped with his life, while the second died one the beach after CPR administered. RIP Lesson: Do not turn your back to the waves as they can knock you down along with a second wave forcing a person under water.
  2. I saw a story on US Citizens being scrutinized by not being within the US territories for more than 6 months (with no ties remaining in the USA). This would apply to retirees overseas possibly. They see this as abandoning US Citizenship. Thus the next step of course would be to stop Social Security/Medicare. It is a new world of corruption that can include many “far fetched” ideas and instigations by a dictatorship. Cheers
  3. Farangs advertising nationwide with their “Chang” tank tops already… Do we really need more? How about promoting meditation in schools and awareness for the ecology? Electric motorbikes please! Get rid of noise pollution…
  4. FYI I just did my 90 day and the email came back to my junk folder. keep an eye there as well. Cheers
  5. This is the same uninformed guy that said that Social Security is a Ponzi Scheme. He has no business delving into the Government entities without expert supervision by both parties. To watch Trump and Musk talk continual lies is disgusting. Trump is running a Criminal enterprise consisting of billionaires.. Lies and conspiracy theories abound. I fear for my continued Social Security payments with these crooks in charge! I paid into my entire life…no it is not an entitlement! Eliminate the FICA cap and save Social Security! Support Bernie Sanders!
  6. Yea yea, will this be another Foxconn (Wisconsin project) that spent millions and NEVER MATERIALIZED? Sounds to me like a ploy to lower taxes for the corporations (as now the budget is being discussed) and rich! I’ll believe it when I see it. Trump Scam scam scam. The world doesn’t need AI, why is it being shoved down our throats? Freakin tech nuts
  7. The people voted in a poll that gambling is not an good idea for Thailand, and I agree. The greedy powers need this though so I guess it will pass. Unfortunately Thailand is becoming more and more “Westernized”… Here is a novel idea for you rich greedy folks: Purchase tractors and plows for the farmers, and eliminated the burning so we all can breath! Now THAT would be helping sociaty!
  8. Ok you were right. I went into the personal details and updated to Thailand address. The repercussions of stating Thailand as my “Country of residence” will hopefully be minimal. Also there is a hold n the account now until they sort out my new address input. Cheers
  9. Here is the page that needs confirmation by WISE. Note that the Country (My resident Country) is shaded and cannot be changed.
  10. It will not, I tried, The Country…United States is shaded so it cannot be changed…
  11. As with my Drivers license they may want an electric bill or rental agreement in your name for proof….thanks
  12. I too have two US bank accounts, and both of them need updated addresses every year. So far they have “accepted” my mail center address but threatened to shut them down if I cannot prove my US residence.
  13. They have tried this as well, but so far was able to avoid my banking shutdown. WTF USA!
  14. Doesn’t work… WISE only accepts address from you passport (issued) country
