My wife's family living in Kantharalak, she told me almost every time when there is thunder storm, lightning killed a few person in the field. When the storm is coming they will all switch off the mobile phone (which may attract the lightning?) and hide in their house. This is what just happened this afternoon in Kantharalak. Hope if you are living in the isaan area beware of it.

By tighten up the visa restrictions and so, Thailand turned back so many better quality tourists from many countries. Then welcome those cheap china tours keep coming in. They messed up every all-you-can-eat buffet restaurants and only know to shop pharmacies. But never spend a buck in a bar.
Unfortunately, I'm a hk guy, officially part of china. So I'm one of them. I never speak a word or only speak Thai. Everytime I buy food from street vendors I'm nervous about what they think if they know I'm a chinese.
In Pattaya I walked around Soi Buakaw, even Fri/ Sat night, only a few customers in each bar. Westerners number drops leads to less girls work there, my wife told me many of them go back to village and close the shops. Again, you don't see many chinese tourist around that area.

When can I fly into Thaland again so I can visit my wife?
I feel you, same here....
Hopefully after 1 month our great PM will announce the number of COVID is "under controlled" again. Since Thailand can't afford to stop all economy activities for that long.

I'm from HK and living in HK, saw some comments here saying HKers and Singaporians are anti-mainlanders, I'm not sure about SG but yes, HKers we hate China government, but not the Chinese people. We are asking for banning ANYONE been to China in the past 14 days coming into our place, not only Chinese travellers. Virus don't care what race you are to infect you, so we are just banning the virus comes in. HK government, just like the Thai government, still don't restrict the tourists from China, but telling us they try their best to control the outbreak.
It's like you keep smashing the mosquitos all day and leave the door and windows opened.
Yes, even banning the Chinese tourists isn't the 100% work solution, wearing a condom isn't 100% work for preventing HIV too. Nothing is 100% guaranteed. Just do the best we can.
Fully understand Thailand relies on tourists, but if the outbreak lost control, there won't be any tourists come to Thai anyway.

My wife runs the english school. I have nothing to do with it, except that we hoped I can be hired without extra hassle. Wether we add an restaurant is completely open, as I pointed out: *I want to run a martial arts school*, but I guess I wrote that in another threat. Here I only asked: how is the stuff with working for your own wife working.
A small restaurant is relatively easy to be run by two. Especially if it is attached to the martial arts school and mostly frequented by members of the school after training.
Anyway, I'm surprised about the "know nothing, but be hostile attitude" here.
But: I found it. It is super simple. You need a permanent residency: https://www.legal.co.th/resources/visa-immigration-law/nationality-law/difference-between-thai-permanent-residence-and-citizenship/
Thanx for the help, though.
Unfortunately, you need WP for 3 years straight and paid tax to prove you been working in Thailand for at least 3 years, then you can apply the PR......
So, you need to get the WP first...... now the problem comes back to the beginning, lol.
ubonjoe's advise made sense the most and probably the easiest one you can try.

Right..... to be more accurate, just to be careful in large open space like farms. But just isaan got more farms so look like always happen in there.
