I have not read all replies so excuse me if I repeat somebody's response. I'm not sure how old the children are but seems a bit selfish to bring kids brought up in the west to the boonies it may well be the parents idea of heaven but I doubt if many on this forum would do it . I should assume many oldies have a 2nd family here now and kids are doing great but they were born here don't know anything different Turning clock back would they bring there first family here 🤔

99-Year Land Lease To Foreigners Will Harm Thailand: Jatuporn
Dave0206 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In the UK England in particular it is very common to buy a property leasehold as opposed to freehold. Lease normally starts at 99 years but obviously as these years dwindle down it affects your selling price hence need to negotiate to extend lease as far as Thailand is concerned I don't intend to live another 30 years let alone 99 years so I don't give a flying duck I was always bad at spelling 😀 -

As long as the chain of wealth distribution was followed he has nothing to worry about but before it's become so public I think he forgot to not break the chain Looks like he is not quite in the "the watches were lent by a friend " category so I fear he is up s"it creek no paddle ect -
Police arrest Russian gang leader for sale of counterfeit passports
Dave0206 replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
If there is a market for illegal passports and visa documents I'm sure the police must have the capability to set up a similar operation 🙄. Anyone requiring such documents are obviously up to no good I'm sure they could get even bigger headlines than 180 day overstay -

British yoga teacher stranded in Bangkok airport over passport tear
Dave0206 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Most of us on here can afford a uck up like this NOW but the girl was very unlucky. I'm sure at some time in our lives ( I'm talking for me) if I had been refused my flight after thinking I was free to spend my last baht it would have been a worrying time . So I'm not going to get on her case she was unlucky and feel many of us or our children could end up in same position difference is as we get older we start worrying what if so we plan for worst scenarios -

Trump favorabilty among Latinos rising as Biden’s falls: Survey
Dave0206 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
It is just over 1000 voters hardly a figure to go and bet on .If they poll a different 1000 and they have Biden surging ahead will trump supporters ramp up the achievements of their party? As seen time and time again they can not govern and I don't know why they oppose any gun bills it would save them pain as they love shooting themselves in the foot -

I am nearly 65 still working in Switzerland been there 16 years so not enough for full swiss pension I was able to pay reduced ni contributions to get full British pension ( next year) The increases in the last few years have been enormous. Apart from freezing of pensions it seems to me an unfair 2 tier system with state and new state pension it's about 30% different so obviously even people in uk are being treated very differently depending on what age group you fall into. Of course there are social security top ups available but many older people are unaware or too proud to claim. Without sounding racist it is normally the undeserving that know how to claim for everything I had a polish guy rent a room from me years ago worked 3 months in uk got family allowance for children who had never set foot in the UK and this is all legal
