It’s not only Pattaya I live in the North and know a few who do the same I see advertisements even on this site offering that service. For me I will stay on the right side of the law and will never provide a reason to leave me vulnerable.

I have been here 14 years using a retirement extension originally arriving with a Non O? and have never been required to take out medical insurance, The 90 day reporting takes about 14 minutes a year out of my life. Sure I have to keep the money in the bank but everything in life comes at a cost and I cannot think of too many Western countries where non citizens or unless married to a citizen of that country one can arrive without a visa and stay indefinitely, certainly not in Australia my home country. As far as the ever changing rules and hoops you have to jump through don’t recall any changes being applied to me.

If you have the money take out a Health/ Hospital Insurance policy with a reputable company like Allianz/Ayudhya before you are 65 years old.

What are the ever more bureaucratic hoops retirees are jumping through haven’t seen any more I have to jump through. Try retiring in a Western country of which you are not a citizen or married to a citizen of that country. Ninety day reports take about 16 minutes a year in total out of my life.

Children are abused all around the world unfortunately I don’t consider Thailand any less safe than most other countries

Everything in Phuket costs way more than it should from what I have observed, however I think that is only noticed if you live here and are able to compare with other places For people visiting from Europe etc it is still probably considered far cheaper than what they would pay at home.

The same could be applied to you don't post if you don't want a comment.

Thirty years old hardly young and inexperienced, a great role model for the pupils. The fine is about five or six hundred pounds hardly a fortune. Don't break the law it's not hard.

Totally agree with that we live in the North and can walk into Chiang Mai Ram and see a specialist without an appointment or referral seven days per week. The standard of medical treatment including dental is as good as I experienced in Australia except considerably cheaper. I think the general care is better here as they employ a higher number of nurses. Speaking from experience in both Government and Private hospitals.

I have experienced turbulence in many regions for years seems to be the luck of the draw. One area that always seems to be consistent is North of Australia heading towards Indonesia.

Thanks will follow up just wondering though if clear and shiny may be slippery when wet which is the problem I have now with the ceramic tiles

Thanks

I don't recall anything changing while he was supposedly in charge certainly not in Chiang Mai, each region appears to run it's own race and make it's own rules.

Some Farang not all of us

The bribery of immigration officials continues in relation to most issues there are advertisements on this site on how to obtain a Retirement Extension without having the required amount of money in the bank. How do you think that occurs ?

Perhaps it’s for companionship although with his wealth he could buy that, but then again it may be love rather than lust.

Rupert Murdoch just remarried I think he’s 90 and the woman 67, so if he can do it !!!!

My family and I visited the UK in April/ May and paid a visit to the centre of Manchester. There was certainly a big change from my last visit a couple of years ago, the druggies and other low life who were being quite abusive had gone and there was certainly a police presence with officers patrolling on foot. Whoever appointed him that area had been cleaned up.
