    So you've fallen for the immigrant stuff too then . Amazes me how easily folk are brainwashed by misleading articles from the biased media and a couple of disruptive s***stirrers in a new party over in the uk .

    Sad state of affairs , " must be true as the mail and s*n said so " ... Free press eh .

    If Thailand dropped its 72% USA import tariff, trump would drop the 36%.

    What is it that USA exports that is so sought after in Thailand ? Can't be the crappy poor quality cars they make , Hardly Davidsons for the ultra rich or  is it the chemically converted chicken and beef , maybe Boeings with bits falling off or inability to fly straight ?

    They will soon find out that being friends with china isnt all its cracked up to be

    And being chummy with Donnys paymaster Vlad is ?

    The orange one will flip within a month or two is my bet once someone's explained it to him with simple words and pretty pictures 😀.

    Not sure where you get that from.

     

    1) When they <deleted> up in investing in UK Steel, they increased costs in Thailand for banking facilities to write off the debt hence there was fee(s) associated with card withdrawals (increases) from non domestic bank cards (as an example but there were many.

    2) When they repo a property/asset they allow it to sit on their books rather than reduce (trust me i tried to buy a repo property that had a tree growing through it.

     

    3) They spin out bad debt into new entities opposed to having it sit on their balance sheet bringing it down (hence SCB pushing CC into CardX).

    I just made it up of course,  I know nothing as Sargeant Shultz would say .

    That is pretty f——- up. What difference does it make where they live if one is vetted and qualified.

     

    Glad America doesn’t have that policy but if Harris wins anything is possible to include complete forfeiture to give to those who refuse to work.  Socialism is what she represents.

    Haha typical yank , socialism isn't communism which is what's got you folks all hot and bothered on the belief that the commies are out to get ya . Old agent orange will save you for sure as he's really got your best interests at heart of course .😜

    Ex-nurses, firefighters & Police Officers all get “Final Salary” government pensions which are very generous & exempt from Tax in Thailand. 
     

    It’s the average Joe with little/no additional pension that feels this the most. 


    Should have moved to Philippines (where State Pension is not frozen). 

    Or planned for their future whilst working and ensure they're not reliant on a state pension which if that's all they had in the uk they'd be struggling even more .. no pad krapow at 40 baht etc etc ... it's no mystery , you'll need money when you're older so plan ahead while you're younger and then the state pension becomes your "beer" money .
