Burma Bill

A genocidal maniac as President? - let us hope he is assassinated before this comes to fruition

Never been a problem for me- Where you come from..................England what your job............ police employee End of harassment and conversation!

With respect, not dangerous but ILLEGAL in Newcastle!

Wait until they take over all the go-go bars and beer bars in Pattaya and convert them to curry restaurants!

Yes, very much so. My first mobile phone was a UK British Telecom model with a base charging unit. It was quite heavy and had to be carried around - too large for most pockets (not unlike todays smartphones!)

If you must know, I have mobility problems with my fingers and thumbs. Some are arthritic and others injured after many years associated with football (soccer). The small touch screens are almost impossible for me to use. A computer keyboard with a mouse is ideal FOR ME. I do not use QR codes, other than TDAC which I print off my computer and present the paper copy with my passport. All my digital and internet business I complete on my computer. My Cambodian bank offers Personal Internet Banking for home and laptop computers. When shopping I use cash or my Visa Debit card. I have a Canon digital camera for taking photos. My choice - no further comment from me.

Easy for me - I use my personal Dell computer. I do not own a smartphone (and never will!)

Insurance job before mandatory medical certificates are introduced and loss of business?

For reference, no proof of income needed by ex-pats in Cambodia. In fact one does not even need a Cambodian bank account. Just 300 US$ cash and some admin for your annual retirement visa with multiple entries included - also no 90 day reports! Easy and hassle free.

Maybe soon the inspections will include medical certificates for Cannabis users!

Well I never - the safe, family friendly resort of Pattaya!

For all of you who may be fed up with Thailand and its bureaucracy regarding visas, income tax and mandatory money requirements. For reference 23rd May 2025: Cambodia's 10-year Golden Visa, also known as the CM2H (Cambodia My 2nd Home) program, allows foreigners to reside in Cambodia for 10 years by investing a minimum of $100,000 in real estate. This program offers a pathway to Cambodian citizenship after five years of residency and does not require minimum stay requirements. Key Features of the CM2H Program: Ten-year visa: Applicants receive a renewable, 10-year visa with multiple entry/exit privileges. Investment Requirement: A minimum investment of $100,000 in real estate is required to qualify. Path to Citizenship: After five years of residency, CM2H holders can apply for a Cambodian passport. No Minimum Stay: There are no minimum physical presence requirements to maintain the CM2H visa, according to IMI Daily. Family Inclusion: Family members can be included in the application process. Work Permit: Successful applicants are also granted permission to work in Cambodia, but a work permit is required. Benefits of the CM2H Program: Long-term residency: The 10-year visa allows for extended stays and the opportunity to build a life in Cambodia. Potential for citizenship: The path to citizenship after five years is a significant advantage. Access to a stable and growing economy: Cambodia is experiencing economic growth and is a safe and secure country. International community: Cambodia is home to a growing international community, providing opportunities for networking and social connections. For more information about the CM2H program, you can visit the official website of Cambodia My 2nd Home (CM2H) or other reputable sources like IMI Daily and Offshore in Asia.

Unfortunately this is true if you live in Thailand. When I want to comment on such issues about Thailand, I wait until I return to my home in Cambodia. If Thai people want to sue me for defamation it will be very difficult and costly.

Funny you should mention it - photographed in Beijing
