    Much ado about nothing, and now if the party poopers get their way, easy going potheads are going to start filling the jail cells once again. Moreover, the government now has a list of people who legally registered to grow at home and sell in shops to chase down and send to the gallows. Life sucks sometimes.

    Like an overly complicated form of entrapment

  2. Hello all,

     

    Need to renovate a house and looking for suggestions for people to help.

     

    I know of home pro, but am curious if there are other or better options.

     

    Right now looking for sun blocking curtains, interior paint jobs to make the place look nice, and possibly a new kitchen.

     

    Side note:. The house has one of those basic default built-in kitchen inside it.  Are they difficult to remove?

     

     

    Also welcome any other guidance you may feel will help.

     

    Thank you all.

    If I bring my family over and show them around (13 people), am I techincally acting as a guide? So am I breaking the law? Maybe Thailand should reassess whether "Tour Guide" should be a protected job, as there seem to be too many grey areas surrounding the issue. 

    Are you getting compensated?  Are you doing this on a frequent (daily basis all year)?

     

    If not, you're not a guide.

     

    The legit guides have to go through a process (and learn a language) to do their jobs.  The non legit guides get to bypass all that and earn a non traceable amount of money.

     

    This issue should be addressed.

    It was a total flop in 2003 and has changed a lot since the original 20 year elite card. With possible amendments, an unstable political situation, and the fact that you have to renew it every 5 years and still have to do the 90 day report “with their assistance” makes me stay away from it. I guess if you’re under 50 or have cash to throw away with no guarantees it may be for you. Cost for 20 elite premium is over 2 million plus a small annual fee. 
     

    Cost for 20 year is 1M.  No annual fees.

     

    90 day reports can be done alone or online in five minutes.

     

    Government's stability issues have not had any real effect on the tourism sector.

     

    TE is a cash cow, so is very unlikely to be effected.
