seems to be getting regular news here on Thai Visa about people not having Medical or travel insurance 

we have all been through the ins and outs  of peoples reasons for not having 

but hopefully some on here will be reading this news item and 

Re-consider their options 

The Labour Party can promise the earth  knowing they have no 2 chances of winning the General Election 

Bob Hope and No hope

now if they changed their leader  who knows?

it goes back to the old saying 

if it looks to good to be true it usually is

and agree Greed  is the number 1 contender 

those who are in their late 60s early 70s   getting medical insurance will be the main problem cost wise

plus any existing   conditions will not help their case 

It's amazing here in Thailand expanding airports more people driving 

smog everywhere yet in the UK climate change is the big issue telling everyone to travel Less cut back flying driving ect it goes on

maybe that Swedish girl needs a visit to Thailand to enlighten them 

I am sure there are plenty of Farang bar and guest house owners

who are on the Thai Visa daily news  forum

who could provide some up to date numbers on how their businesses are doing in Pattaya ,Hua Hin for example

get a update idea on how things are here in Thailand tourist wise prospective 

I am meeting the immigration officers next week will let you know how it goes

thankyou for the information provided 

Hi there 

I have the immigration office where I am applying for the Non O Requirement based on marriage 

saying I have to use the 400,000 baht  in the bank 

I have advised them I was told it was okay to use the 40,000 baht monthly transfer when I was last in 

Chaengwattana 

Can anyone please show  where I can find the information on the 40,000 baht on the immigration website  

thankyou

I remember a while back when I mentioned I was covered with First  class  Medical insurance  and was treated in Bumrungrad for Prostate cancer only hospital at the time qualified  to do it

I was suddenly jumped on by the cant afford  it and to old brigade basically saying I was showing off

I have been with this insurance company over 30 years  yes it costs a few pounds  but well worth it

I have just been in hospital again and the cost was very high but the insurance company paid no problem always said  Medical insurance  is a important requirement when Retired and not getting any younger

I rest my case    

I am currently renewing my yearly non o retirement  the start day will be if approved November the 8th

my current 90 days expires 6th December

when does the next 90 days reporting start

if the 8th November do I wait 90 days before submitting the TM 47

thankyou

What time frame do you put on that?

Well its taken 3 years so far and nothing achieved 

if Boris can get get Brexit done October 31st 2019

its proberly going to take minimum 2 years  for things to 

Improve 

I am trying to put a positive spin on this for the future 

to many people on here seem to be looking at the bar scene in Pattaya 

plenty of quality tourists are not interested in drinking in bars ect 

plenty of places  to visit other than Pattaya  in Thailand 

once the Brits get Brexit sorted out the pound will rise and the Brits will come back ?

well its no consolation but she is not the first and no doubt the last to be scammed

I don't know how many times we read of people  getting ripped off

some people never learn what ever the reason ? 

Have to agree with some on here 

The TM6 was no big deal its the TM30  that they need to resolve  and  looking at the news its here to stay 

Sick of reading about the pair of them and their insults 

hopefully the pending case in America will finally resolve it one way or the other 

well we all know what happens here 

when the price of oil drops it takes ages for the punter to get the benefit 

talking the UK here last week it was reported Tesco and other big supermarket chains were dropping the price of a litre by 3 pence this week

lets see what happens now wont take long for a increase at the pumps

Won't hold my breath but a step in the right direction

Can always live in hope it gets resolved for the positive

I think the Government woman  is responsible for taking this action  giving her 5 minutes of fame 

and for the newspapers  making something out of nothing is pretty pathetic Mountain out of a molehill comes to mind

a fool and his money (  plus watch rings and Cell phones ) are soon departed  no sympathy if due to drink

no doubt will be covered by insurance 

This  seems to be a endless conversation about wanting to be here or not

we all have our reasons 

bottom line if you can afford to go else where and are not happy with the situation here just do it

Others like myself cannot  do this as most of what I have is here in Thailand Family  ect

I try to remain positive I have made my life here and intend to enjoy it

No matter what 

okay agree its a step in the right direction Malls shops ect  cutting back 

but its the people who need educating  on how to dispose of them properly 

Hence  streets sides of roads  drains beaches ect  still in dated with them l
