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

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

well reading the comments the British Embassy staff used to get on the services provided
I would have thought not to many people cared about the building
on exiting the European Union our influence in the world is diminishing
probably the only people who care are the ones living in the past

I am due my yearly visit to the Immigration in Bangkok for the yearly Non O visa in a couple of months
I am going to use the Marriage to a Thai 40000 baht a month arrangement
my wife is currently not very mobile and this could cause her a lot of inconvenience getting her to the immigration here in Bangkok .
She is currently staying outside Bangkok with the stepdaughter I am residing in Bangkok
My son who is a Thai citizen born in Thailand and now working in Bangkok
was asking could he sponsor me if yes what paperwork would be required
any help would be appreciated in answering this question

I have already mentioned before about Brexit not going to be a good thing for the UK
especially the exchange rate for expats here ( Pensions ect ) in Thailand and else where
The people of the UK voted to come out of the EU
Boris has promised to get us out by the 31st October with a deal or no deal
expect worse for the pound sterling in the near future

well its probably a good thing catching those arriving with out Money and no insurance to cover their stay
here in Thailand
looking at the countries where they are coming from say no more
most western tourists will have money plus return tickets not to sure about Insurance but most street wise people will have

well good luck to the 3 guys getting the awards
I can imagine there are quite a few more foreigners who can do the same but probably prefer
to remain low key not wanting the publicity teachers for example and more

There will always be some people with negative thoughts on how people use the Go Fund me
but its the peoples choice to send their money to help out
will no doubt be reading more people asking for it in the future what ever their circumstances

this will be made in heaven for the Thai bashers
looking at the photos of the huge queues at Thai immigration Suvamabhumi airport and in Vientiane Laos
people the same queuing up for visas for Thailand no shortage of people wanting to come to Thailand
not everyone comes to drink in bars in Pattaya or Phuket who are no doubt are the ones feeling the pinch

Maybe the tourists after reading about the rip offs scams ect have decided there is more to Thailand than Phuket and Pattaya

when I first came to Pattaya in the 80s lots of the guys worked in the middle east so partying was the name of the game
now fast forward to 2019 the strong Baht other currencies depreciating plus more Chinese and Indians arriving
not known as big spenders in the bars ect
all that's left is the retired expats talking about the good old days watching their pension incomes get lower and no doubt will get worse if Brits Brexit ?

He has had his 5 minutes of fame
it took him a decade to get to this stage
maybe a bit more time is required

when I am shopping at our local Mart the assistant now asks how many plastic bags I need depending on the weight I now say just the one
its their non plastic day today so I take my own plastic bags when shopping
its not the Marts Malls ect that are the problem its what people do with them after throwing in the street klongs ect
I use mine for the household waste then dispose in the bin provided by the Condo management daily

Have received word from my Thai landlord for me to fill in the TM30 confirmation of foreigner address
which he will sign plus provide the required paperwork
which I will send to Immigration
looking at the TM30 Name address information to be filled in ect
1. Part 1 is that my name and current address
2. second part wish to notify the address where Alien received permission to stay temporality in the Kingdom has stayed as is that the owners ?
plus the on date month year is that the when I first moved in about 5 years ago
or when I returned and entered the Kingdom from a visit to the UK last year
he then completes the form with his signature and signs as Owner
advice gratefully accepted

Hi there,
need clarification on who completes the TM 30 and gives to the Immigration
I am renting a Condo for over 4 years here in Bangkok no TM 30 as far as I can recall
renewed my Non O last October at Chaengwattana no TM30 mentioned
now reading people filling in the TM30 when getting their Non O visa
do I contact the Landlord and ask him if he has ever done the TM30 for me
or ask him to complete the TM 30 and he submits it on my behalf ?
regards

He is not called Boris the Buffoon for nothing

when he opens his mouth he usually puts his his foot in it
