Ok, so how would you assess whether the applicant is likely to remain employed during the five years of their permission to stay? I reckon LTR is quite lenient, especially with regards to income; 80k USD isn't a high income at all.

And where in this article is it written that this sudden deaths are caused by the Covid vaccines?

And I don't see what changes could improve that; so the number of visas issued will remain low. Which is bad news for those like me who have gotten an LTR, as we will be constantly facing difficulties with IOs who won't have any idea of what an LTR is. The only sensible place to cross the border will be the priority channel at Swampy, and for any other formality we will have to go to the Silom office.

20000 wouldn't last a couple of days. Ludicrous.

They still waste half an hour every morning, even in private schools. Feel sorry for my kids. Schools are to give knowledge not belief. And proselytism should be seen as a crime.

Mr. Alain is a high potential perp.

Maybe Indian? after recent developments.

God is an englishman.

So, if you drive without a license they'll deduct two points from your inexistent license. The epitome of Thai logic.

But remember that in 5 years you most show that the your balance didn't go below 100k at any time during the preceding year. Some might get caught on that.

Once more, Thai xenophobia at its best. And there will be apologists to assert it isn't.

Everyone can acclimatise to 6000 meters, or more. There are rules to follow such as: sleeping 300 or 400 meters below the day's highest altitude; set a conservative daily altitude gain; Diamox (125mg) morning and evening; and ideally, before attempting a trekking peak rest rest at lower altitude 24 to 72 hours at a much lower altitude. For instance when I trekked Kilimanjaro I climbed Mt Kenya (5000) and recuperated during the transfer to Arusha. Guides should always have Dexamethazone and know how and when to use it.

And how about alcohol? Are you a drinker? But I agree that legalising [another] a potentially dangerous drug was totally insane.

A bit late in the season, and climate change may mess that up too. So getting at 5000 caught in cold and snow can be life threatening for inexperience plodder used to mild climates. Happened before.

I am DDTM [<penis>Driven Totally Male]. No apologies.

The topic here was "Pattaya entertainment venues", but I agree that Thai tourism can do well without the westerners.

Macron has lost my vote, Thai boxing and Prayut. I feel sick,

Won't make any difference. Trips to Thailand will become unaffordable for most westerners before the end of 2023.

Thought such wholes were features. I my previous life with reported only bugs.

Sherpa.

You just made Mother earth cry.

Dunno, but I'd simply leave without reentry permit and restart with visa exempt, 60 days to visit wife and Thai wife extension. Or change visa, OA, OX, Elite? if you travel a lot. Was known to be a lateral stinker.

I'd be interested to know how you clean old concrete from old oil etc.. before actually painting.

Disappointing, one would have thought that Brexit could protect the country from nefarious outside influences.
