I'd guess their reasoning was at 80 years old he's not a risk to anyone.

Maybe not, but his victims are scarred for life. Kiddy fiddlers should be subject to a death penalty!

However note the PR holders cannot get an exit/re-entry stamp at an airport. Has to be done at an Immigration office, normal office hours. 

 

Note also that a re-entry permit for PR holders, costs more than for others!!!

Other than get rid of the visa and permit hassles there is absolutely no gains in having a Thai nationality,

That can be achieved via Permanent residency

A new club, just opened, with no licence, and unable to operate correctly within the hours that would be permitted had they had a licence.

The mind boggles. How come people are so stupid?

With all the DWP Life certificates being sent out in recent weeks, the covering letter will suffice as proof of address

Somewhat contradictory statements on their web page

The WrLife team

We are fully-licenced insurance agents and brokers,

At WrLife we believe that customers prefer to be insured by a fully-licenced company with an honest, open and fair approach to medical insurance.

We’re a fully-licenced independent insurance group

If they are just brokers, who does the insurance underwriting?

Maybe so, but being in jail for many years many other men will be free to love his wife.

"being in jail for many years" ??  One man murdered, should mean 2 men dead!

Ignored this thread up to now. Time on my hands this morning

Like most things, I am prepared to believe anything  if given adequate proof

There is no proof of the existence of God, nor any of the other dieties  or their ability to seemingly hold power over those that believe in them and pray continuosly to them. None of the "Gods" are ever around to assist when they should be, since they are only imaginary beliefs. Remember Aberfan and now the Turkish earthquake!  WHERE WERE THEY???

You must realise that when you do a Wise transfer from the UK, you do so at a fixed rate and a fixed amount to be received, the rate being approx 0.25bt lower than the XE rate at the time Wise large transfers can and have recently taken 3./4 days  to arrive, but you always receive what you were advised at the outset.

TT rates change regularly during the day and are around 0.5bt lower than XE rates. UK money is converted at the TT rate when it arrives at the bank, which can be several days after setting up the transfer. The TT rate can be higher or lower than what you were expecting when sending.

Wise net  rate at this moment (weekend) for £1,000 is 40,35, whilst the last quoted Thai banks TT rates was 40.40+ However earlier in the day Wise were quoting a net rate  of some 40.6. Not only do the Thai banks take commission but there is a sending fee from the UK banks.

Wise fees are 0.57%for large amounts to a little over 0.60% for small amounts

Sending money from the UK depends on the time of day and the rates at the time.   I believe Wise wins hands down every time.

July 4?? I thought it was in January 2023. Quality Thai reporting of the facts.

Probably was July, August September and every other day and month for the past many years!????

Perhaps Chuwit, Joke and a few other like minded folk could run theThai government, the police and the armed forces.  Couldn't do much worse!

This man should either get the death penalty, or at least jail for life with no remission.

There can be no alternative, no matter how many wais or who he knows or whatever

Lyrica  75mg - today in Bkk Pattaya Hospital  120 capsules for 29,400 baht!!!!!!!!!  Thats 245bt EACH!

Is a re-entry permit (single entry or multiple) available at either of the 2 Bangkok airports for those being Permanent Residents? Both the passport and PR Book have to have permits.  Last time I went to Buriram Immigration main Office, they could not assist as they did not have the required stamp, which I was told was different to the standard re-entry permit stamp.

HMRC will be aware how much State Pension you receive, your tax allowance means you should not pay tax on it albeit I don’t know where you stand if you live in Thailand permanently.

The gross amount of state pension is added to any other income your receive from the UK, and anything above the personal allowance is taxed.

No. Put all the relevant information re handling the estate WITH ---NOT IN the last Will and Testament.  The Will should only include ones wishes, and who gets what.  Find a lawyer (in the US) who will handle the estate, and leave his name and address with the Will.

Perfect place for a roundabout 

Thais cannot to get it right at T junctions. They NEVER get it right at roundabouts. It is always ME FIRST, no matter what the rules are.  GIVE WAY is not understood!
