  1. @Sheryl Is it possible for a person to get 1 standard lens in one eye and 1 progressive lens in the other eye?
  2. I just had my BK bank account frozen a few days ago. It is a secondary account that I use to pay bills with <25k THB in it. Opened a few years ago with a Non O visa based on retirement. I haven't had a chance to go to the bank to find out what is going on yet but having one's bank account frozen definitely makes me want to close this account once I am able to get to the bank.
  3. In the orange man's first term the USD was as low as 29.6948 THB in 2019. It seems we could get down to 30 THB per USD again in the orange one's second term. https://www.exchangerates.org.uk/USD-THB-spot-exchange-rates-history-2019.html Best exchange rate: 32.335 THB on 01 Jan 2019. Average exchange rate in 2019: 31.035 THB. Worst exchange rate: 29.6948 THB on 31 Dec 2019.
  4. The dollar index has plummeted from 109 the day that Trump took office to 99 today. This will translate to lower exchange rates for the U.S Dollar. Are American expats here concerned?
  5. I see the pathetic and hopeless Thai bureaucratic state is at it again. The constant flip flop by the clowns in the banana republic. They don't seem to understand that people are tired of putting up with their nonsense and many will move on from Thailand.
  6. I see that your new Farang tax dollars/pounds are being spent wisely 😆
  7. They will want you to pay taxes on the value of the card you sent to the minister. That will be 30 Baht tax, please remit to the TRD. 😆
  8. Now, watch them change their mind yet again in about a month. The Thai bureaucratic state is full of incompetent baboons. They've done a lot of damage with this whole tax situation and caused a great deal of stress and grief to Resident Expats in Thailand.
  9. He can't help himself it would seem. Good likeness no?
  10. Gee, I thought Emperor Thaksin Palpatine wasn't supposed to get involved in politics anymore? 🧐
  11. I was referring to Resident Expats, their numbers will be decreasing over time due to the nonsense the Thai Bureaucratic state subjects them to.
  12. Yet another example of the Thai Bureaucratic State trying to prove their worth or value added to their government heads. Other examples: TM30, 90 day reports,fees already built into airfare departure tax, arrival tax (to come within the year). ETA system (to come within the year), proposed revised/reinterpreted income tax rules., foreigner pricing in national parks, dual pricing in hospitals. These pathetic Thai bureaucrats just can't help themselves. Their actions will continue to drive people away in drips and drabs over time.
  13. Can you share the name of the Public Hospital? Thanks.
