    Not until I get through my immigration appointment tomorrow morning. I hope.

    Prawit's okay. If I can't have Prayuth, I'll take Prawit.

    The next time you see a Thai man with a square head offering surgical masks to foreigners, you'd better take one.

    Just when you doubt it, it turns out you can build a better mouse trap.
  5. John Drake
    Here's the thing. I don't care about what you think. I know what the proposals mentioned. You're the one in for a surprise. Not my problem.

    Srettha has overhauled a lot. If nothing else, he turned Phuket into a Russian colony.
  7. John Drake
    You hinting at a revolution? What exactly do you mean "no action by the people."
  8. John Drake
    Overwhelming arrogance or overwhelming incompetence. No in between.

    There are two proposals in the works. The remittances tax which was proposed to take effect with this year's remittances. And the worldwide income tax. Don't think the remittance tax applies to what you're describing. The worldwide income tax does.

    If that's the choice, we'd better hope for Door #1 and incompetence.

    Most of those who will be hurt most are blindsiding themselves. They've taken everything at face value. Proposed changes for September-December which were made last May, have already been emptied from the memory bank of eazy-to-get-visa heaven.
  12. John Drake
    Yeah, you're right. Better leave soon. Why not tonight?
  13. John Drake
    And all those people who took up the new lax visas and have now ungrandfathered themselves.

    I'll gladly welcome the stability we had with Prayuth, a status quo politician. No need to overhaul things the way Srettha has done and usher in chaos.
  15. John Drake
    Then why did you bring it up?
  16. John Drake
    Sorry you only know how to back losers.
  17. John Drake
    Maybe if you would have been here longer than since late July you would know. Look it up yourself. Everybody who has been with the topic knows what I'm talking about, you fool.

    Would need to go back and look at the thread. But there was a phrase about reconstituting all the visa categories with specific reference to people on retirement extensions. (Don't want to make this topic about retirement extensions, but it is one of the ramifications of Srettha getting the boot.)
  19. John Drake
    More worried about the promised changes beginning in September. Don't want any changes at all to my retirement extension.
  20. John Drake
    House cleaning, thank God.
  21. John Drake
    Hope they ditch all the current and upcoming changes at immigration, along with the proposed tax changes.
  22. John Drake
    Please bring back Prayuth. And now get rid of the changes at immigration and taxes.
  23. John Drake
    Now what? And btw what does this do to pending changes, such as at immigration and taxes?
  24. John Drake
    Perhaps the best scenario to emerge from this election will be something like a Tulsi RFKjr ticket in 2028. I backed her when she was a Democrat and annihilated Kamala Harris and ended her campaign in the first Democrat presidential debate.
  25. John Drake
    That's a point. I haven't heard of a single member of his unit coming out to defend him.
