All they have to do is suspend or not renew his passport, then they will know exactly where he is when he tries to renew it.

Why would he bother renewing his Thai passport as I am sure he has a few other countries passports, that is why he can travel around and also why he can not be extradited as easily as most people seem to think, in theory he is not Thai.

What is "an aquarium-cum-zoo" 

Sounds like a wet dream in a zoo.

No mention of tests required entering by land, or is that the test and go ?

They were certainly available in Chiang Mai in October and November.

I had my second free Pfizer at Promanada last week.

Same Koh Chang, but a lot never bothered to reg with Thaivax or visit the local hospital and register.

Prostitution is paying for sex, as a friend once told me he never pays the girls for sex, he only ever gives them money to leave his room.

The true 'FACE' of Thailand.

Banned on Koh Chang thank god.

Well I wouldn't be that stupid, what would cause me alarm is the letter 'out of the blue', I had such a letter from the German tax authorities once, I hadn't done anything wrong, the rules had changed concerning taxation on pensions, I hadn't filled out a tax form in 4 years as I didn't know of the changes, it was an enormous amount of work including visiting the Thai tax office and writing emails to the German embassy and gathering info from 4 years back, eventually I got a letter back from the tax people saying I needn't pay tax and so needn't fill out any more forms, I still recall the fear when reading the surprise letter. So yes, I am careful.

Germany is not the UK in case you hadn't noticed.

I knew a friend who returned to the UK, he told all officials he had never left and had been living hand to mouth living in a camper van, picking fruit and veges for 15 yrs, he had a valid UK driving licence, and registered with a doctor you do not need proof of address or immigration status ID or an NHS number. Away from home or medical emergency is good enough. He also opened a bank account with a downloaded lease, DL, no utility bills as it was shared accommodation.

Do you think they are clueless ?  You can have a bank account in England and get your pension paid there but how do you get your money, ATM here, Transferwise, etc. The tax office can and do have access to your bank account, they can see all payments made and where they are going, where do you apply for a new passport? if you don't fly back and get it done here they know, even if applying back in England they can still see all the visas in your old passport. If you have an address in England then you are liable for council tax. They have so many ways of getting to you if they want to. When I applied for my German pension, attached to the form from my German pension provider was all the payments I had made to the UK pension, the world is a village.

Sharing tax or bank info with the NHS is illegal in the UK.

According to CDC, treatment for TB doesn't seem to require 12 months.

The 9 mth medication I first got made me puke, back in hospital for 2 weeks in isolation again (take note anti-vaxers) it was changed and to a 12 month medication. the worst side affect was arthritis, but now ok. it still took me overall 18 months to recover, and was very proud of myself for climbing up the Anchor Wat steps while on holiday in Cambodia.????

Last December I caught TB... I was shocked and after 12 mths I'm on 18 tabs a day and feeling <deleted>...

Have you spoken to your doctor? Some of these meds have horrible side affects and you can explain that to the doctor, he might find other meds with less side affects after 18 months you should not still be on meds IMO. Have you done any research on side affects from the meds you are on ? Are you still contagious ?

No TB implication, how did you catch it?

I caught TB here and have no idea how i caught it, it is very contagious and took me 18 months to fully recover, the worst of it was from medication side affects.
