"Totally ruined over the last 5 years" ?? This joker is being all weepy and emotional. Just 1 month ago I was over in BKK. And for a country totally ruined, there were thousands in Terminal 21 alone and most soi's were busy -as were the service providers. The BTS & MRT were packed as usual with Thai's and Anglo's alike going about there business - as usual. Did not witness any Thais's weeping about there ruined country.

Yes I live lower sukhumvit and confirm your post is true. Also Master card just released stats confirming Bangkok is the most visited city on the planet 3 years in a row!! with average 4.7 nights stay..just goes to prove imbicile basher's are clueless

won’t be long now until the tourism really begins to dry up. All those years it took to build up the long term stayers and tourism. Totally ruined over the past 5 years. Somewhat like the coral reefs, it will be a long time to recoup the numbers. 

Karmic ! 

 

Ph uk’ tards ! 

huh? You're in dreamland. The Ozzie pension is now 35k and POM's are worse. None obviously have any insurance, not on those numbers. Thailand never " built " them up they don'teven register when 30 million are coming in !!!

In the UK for a few months earlier this year and I ate huge amounts of outstanding cheese, extra mature cheese from M&S, 500grams, £3, who wouldn't!

 

But despite the huge intake of fats, my blood tests came back as some of the best I've ever seen in the past ten years, PLUS, I lost 6 kgs during the trip....go figure.

That's because cheese especially Cheddar is very low carb and recommended in keto diets .No surprise you lost weight an of course you weren't eating White rice daily that's extremely high carb

What level of doctor is needed for a prescription, local doc or hospital specialist?

The visa system in VN is not easier at the moment. Nothing in my opinion can be easier than the 1 year extension here which takes me less than 5min every time. I am also staying 5min from Immigration.

thai Retirement extension is the best in SEA.Never need to leave the country again. for those running don't blame Thailand but blame your Embassy

Same as Thailand, tons of people complain, and worst is vietnam blocks you from leaving the country if they think you didn't pay your taxes.

 

Nice prison to live in.

communist government with a shocking human rights record, they can do what they like with you. Would not want to be on the wrong side of the law over there

There will be an equivalent for the TM30 in VN in the future,just wait and see. There are officially re-entry permits in VN,but you can fix that at immigration. At the moment there are no 1 year visas, only a 3 months visa that you can extend 3 times. That's 3 visits to the immigration office. Then you must leave the country and re-enter. How is that convenient?  About the >800k in the bank. You seem to think that every expat have problems meeting the financial requirements. That's not true,either. Maybe for you and your pals in your neighborhood. The money can be put in a FDA with 1,5-2% interest per year.Not so bad compared to a crappy savings account within the EU. Interest = 0%. You don't have to worry about bank letters anyway. I guess you can't afford having to park >800k in the bank. 

 

 

TM 30 already Vietnam and Cambodia

Feel sorry for the suckers that ran

Have you actually been to Vietnam?  Or are you just looking at one picture?  I think I know the answer.

Anyone who has ever been there would not say it is clean.  I go there every 3-4 months for work (HCMC) and generally like the place and people, but it is chaos (I'm ok with chaos) and it isn't clean or free of rubbish in any way shape or form.

I just came back on Thursday.  Rented an apartment rather than a hotel this time.  Check out the entranceway to my 5-star luxury pad in the absolute centre of District 1, HCMC.  Rats everywhere too.

 

 

Disgusting!

The message is spreading, why would foreigners come to Thailand to be treated like criminals ?

Vietnam and Cambodia are loving it, more tourists pouring in without the <deleted>.

Wrong . I guess you missed the article on another thread running right now about Asian  beaches empty and specifically empty hotel rooms in vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand but hey dont let facts ruin a make beleive story

The western tourists are now detouring Pattaya / Thailand, so, too "late" to put a "little" investment into infrastructure.

I have a friend who has retired in Bali. His house used to be in the middle of rice fields but now there are bungalows, hotels and bars all around him and the place is awash with western tourists. No TM30, no 90 day reporting, and after having lived there with his wife (bali woman) for 7 years he doesn't need to do a visa extension anymore.

Bali is basically another Australian state.. no thanks and I'm Ozzie!
