As we all know, frequent visitors often get grilled by Immigration at airports upon entering Thailand. But do they grill people who are over 50 years old and frequently visit Thailand on tourist visas? There seems to be little incentive to grill them because such people have the right to stay in Thailand as long as they want using the yearly retirement extensions if they wish so. But how is it in practice?

Do Expats become estranged and socially alienated ?
JoseThailand replied to Social Media's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Being a foreigner in a country where a majority of people don't speak English or your language can be very stressful. That's why it's important to build your own social circle. In fact, a lot of expats tend to congregate together and stay in designated expat communities. -

JoseThailand replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News Headlines
The Russian society is split over this. A lot of people, especially the younger generation, oppose the war, some even go to jail for openly expressing their views. On the other hand, a lot of people support the war and believe the propaganda.- 206 replies
