2000 baht per treatment for Thais around Pattaya area at government clinic. Thais typically get 2 treatment per week depending on their weight.
Farangs might get 3 which is typical in farangland depending on the treatment time and person's weight, etc.

China is having their own economic problems. Plus currently, they are having big respiratory disease outbreaks as well.
So I don't expect to see them in large numbers for a while.

Below are LTR Visa applications snapshots as of end of 31 Oct 2023 and 31 Aug 2023 to give an idea of activity over the last two months....from the BoI LTR website. Seems to be around 300 applications per month. Please note this is applications (applies); it does not say how many of the applications were endorsed (i.e., approved). The Pensioner category is still the most popular closely followed by Work From Thailand Professional category.....Dependents category in third place.
Through 31 Oct 2023
Through 31 Aug 2023
Not even close to their goal. They were trying for 200,000 applicants per year?

I have a pension that is more than $80,000 and Pacifist Cross insurance. I applied for the pensioner LTR in Oct 2022 and got it with no problems at all. I submitted my US tax return to verify my income and never got additional questions about it. I submitted my Pacific Cross insurance certificate and they accepted that as well. You should have no problems. If they ask for more information just give them what they ask. Your situation, and mine, are as simple as it can get and exactly what they ask for on the BOI website.
Were you able to cross out your SS number? for risk of identity theft and security?

Prostitution is restricted in Malaysia. Muslims convicted of prostitution may be punishable with public caning.

7000 baht is too much from what you described. Somebody is stealing your line or inflating the bill somehow. Check the owner, neighbor, etc.

Have you tried mail-order online Lazada and Shopee companies. Not just for vitamins/minerals but many other things as well. Huge selections of other things you might need.

to say you got ripped off is an understatement
3 weeks ago i had inguinal hernia repair at Hua Hin Government hospital.
I was in for 2 nights, VIP single room, food, meds, nurses, everything...........19,000 baht.
I had open repair.
I shopped around big time before choosing which hospital
all the private hospitals would give me an estimation, then ask me to sign a disclaimer stating, but if this, but if that.........etc..........i walked away each time......could see through them easily.
nearest quote i could get was 100k, but if, bla bla bla
Since you shopped around, how much private hospitals such as San Paulo and Bangkok Hospital Hua Hin wanted?

Many foreigners do NOT know that they can use a Thai Military Hospital once you are registered at THAT hospital. Many doctors are US or UK trained, English is usually not a problem. COST: you pay the SAME cost as Thai civilians using the military hospitals. It is slightly more expensive than govt civilian hospitals, way way less than a private hospital.
Yes, many foreign students all over the world apply to American school system for free tuition at the expense of US tax payers. Vast majority try to stay in America and few do go back to their countries, especially after making good money. Very common practice.

I also had weekly package that got deducted so I only kept minimal balance and once that runs out no more money is taken since I have no money in my account. Once I return, I add the money again for my duration. You can also add time for validity using MyAIS app with bonus credit they give you for refilling in your country using the wifi connection so you don't lose your account/number.

Corruption is way of life in Thailand including Thai Police Department. And if you interfere with that corruption, it can cost your life.
Thais all know this.

Financial sector is mostly run by Chinese-Thais. They are born and raised in Thailand. This include the former PM Thaksin Shinawatra. He is half Chinese and half Thai. They also take Thai names to blend in with the Thais.

Some Farangs I knew married bargirls and got divorces end up paying few hundred baht for Amphur fee. They told me it was simple and cheap as long as its uncontested and willing by both.

Just now, smedly said:
was he cutting customers hair ?
No he was a waiter doing a Thai job. If he pisses Thai waiters off, I'll bet he's going to get reported by them.

In Thailand, whoever has the bigger vehicle has the right away with Thai drivers. Most farangs don't understand this concept.
Foreign pedestrians need to be extra careful crossing the streets in Thailand.

I saw a British Farang working as waiter at Beefeaters restaurant in Pattaya. I wonder if he's going to get arrested as well?

USA is too forgiving to illegal workers around the world. But if Americans try to work illegally in S .Korea, Thailand, Cambodia, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, PI, SEA, etc. and see what happens. Same for immigration.
