Highly Positive Necessary Step. Builds upon existing Sandbox Experiment & Learned Lessons. Oct & Nov “abandoned” as Continued Extended Sandbox Experiment ? Clearly Targeting Potential Xmas / New Year (December Holiday Break) Tourists. Govt. again had no need to indicate/ guess possible tourist numbers. EXPERIMENT Only. Yet Predictably virtually all Member Posts are Negative, Critical or “ Funny”……. Hideous Attitude. Embarassing for All Expats. No Wonder we are fairly Universally Loathed Here.

can I get some idea why expats retire to Thailand, even remaining during covid, in dirty congested dangerous cities, still tourist areas, when idyllic rural / island life with great weather, housing & full services available ? I loved bangkok / pattaya pre- covid but only for 3-6 days for Sukh. Road Nightlife, Walking Street & Old Culture. but seriously, apart from those temporary attractions, just specifically WHY ? no “rip off” bs either please……or “I didnt like Phuket (prefer Pattaya)”irrational nonsense.

you clearly “understand” my plain english, your problem obviously is “believing”….. based on my Aussie friend’s specific case earlier this year, his IO do so report as there is appears to be an arrangement between the two govts to do so. So Aus Govt . would stop or suspend Pensions. He confirmed this directly with his Oz Pension Co. Might apply to other Govts, except UK. he had to use an Agent for a “Chonburi” Ret. Visa to avoid this IO advised reporting to continue receiving his Oz Pension. Yet another clear benefit to Agent Use……. my post is intended as useful information / consideration only. I do not “prove” anything on TVF by member- beloved “links” or “ attachments”. believe it or not and move on.

personally never doing that as customer, vaxxed or not. these fools are determined to put all small businesses out of play, for political gesturing bs…… bangkok anti - vaxxers better all learn home cooking then ………

No. Matching your Full Name & Birth Date on your bearer Thai Covid Cert. to any Travel ID surely would be Sufficient. Except perhaps highly common names like “John Smith” or “David Brown” ……..

perhaps anybody who supports permanent dehumanizing, useless, gesturing, public mask wearing would be better off moving to some totalitarian fear-based hellhole like China or North Korea…..or becoming a cyborg machine. China created & released Covid onto the World in February 2020 with 70 million Chinese New Year Travellers, having known about Covid then for three months. Clearly China should then have sealed their borders, if not a deliberate bio weapon. they did not so it clearly is. Then Govts.should have moved ONLY to protect the Vunerable (Old & Sick), leaving Society & Economy otherwise Untouched. Sick includes Incredible Western Pandemic of Stupid Fatties / Smokers/ Druggies/ Alkys who were already bankrupting and overstretching Western National Health Services, driving up Taxes too. But NO , Politicians determined everybody must share the societal & economic misery & ruin….because its “ compassionate” and “ the right thing to do” and actually Sick People are the Voting Majority & Taxpayers.WE COULD NOT AFFFORD THAT. Also, one high profile UK fattie ill leftie guy, somehow clinging to his now useless life, with permanently & serious damaged brain, heart, lungs, liver, etc, in covid- based coma for 18 months, has cost taxpayer MILLIONS . ONE GUY ! That money LOST to Innocent Children with Cancer & Heart / Lung Conditions. Normally his Life Support would have been switched Off after 2-3 months….. absolute disgraceful “ political” action…… because all Human Life is “Priceless”… no, it is clearly not…

fully respect those following the “rules”. we are all shaped by personal experience. heres my take:- “the rules” can be and are legally waived by Imm. all the time , who are often the agents too. due diligence in everything in life: agent should be suitably recommended & ideally an Imm. Officer. agent reasonable cost is easily offset by having full control of the 800k/ 400k funds (x 2) indefinitely tied up. ensure agent secures retirement visa / extn only from your local IO for your reg. address. separately ensure your visa is on Imm. Computer thus being fully legal & irrevocable ( excepting jail / deportation !) & clear for airport Imm. applies using agent or not. you can use pretext of “stamp looks odd” to get IO or IO Volunteer to do that…..then you may ignore the usual jealous scare stories from the visa sheep here of “visa not legal”, etc. Imm. aint challenging any visa / extn issued on computer by themselves ! would be bad for “business” confidence. yes Imm. here is primarily a Business….. avoiding financials clearly beneficial: Australian (& Canadian ? Not UK ) Pensions are Blocked for example, as IO report direct process retirement visas to your Home Govt…. personally I dont want ANY of my non- home country business routinely reported back to home govt. such separation of thai & non - thai matters important to me… if thai or home govt want to review or release my thai govt. data its all on govt. computers here….. btw I have previously done the Home Embassy Retirement Visa (40 man hours work, embassy appd. in ten seconds) & experienced friends Thailand- based process often involving substantial problems ( overcome yes with time / money) . I will not risk being messed around like that (again) & value convenience & control , where possible, over blind obedience to arbitrary anti- foreigner “rules”. I love it here but we are not wanted, except for money. cannot own land & yearly “visa grubbing” with 3 mth “reporting” , for example, despite in my case being Invested here substantially with Property, Family, Time, etc

What a Performance. Simply enter thailand “visa exempt” then use thai agent to get the retirement visa / extension / reporting / reentry permit, done all in thailand, with no financials / no documents/ no thai bank/ no USD 27k tied up here for years, for about 30,000 baht each visa/ extn.

“zero long term research on mixing vaccines” (never mind that what we DO know on that is all positive) Wright Bros : right ! Cancel the Humans in Aeroplanes Thing !

Depends on Property & Lifestyle. Live in Nine Unit Four -Story Townhouse Pool Villa Seaview Complex. Shared Pool / Spa Essential Really. Use the 17 mtr Pool for Daily HIIT Finned Resistance Swims. Young Son also there Every Day ! No Proper Swimming ( Training ) Pool should be any smaller. Member with 50 mtr Olympic Pool: Green with Envy ! Have also Jet Flow Spa at end of Pool. Essential for My Property & Lifestyle & Covid Coping ! Common Fund pays MRO. So I pay 1/9th total Operating cost. + paid 1 /9 th Build. Proper Swim Pool VERY Expensive to Build & Operate for Single Owner (Concrete Build / Tiles / Lights Sandwash/ HD Pumps/ Tanks/ Piping / Filter/ Chemicals/ Furniture/ Showers/ Roofing/Spa/ Water.

Employ Expereienced & Qualified Competitive Thai Architect for Standard House Design Mods. (Land Office Plans), Conduct Build & Manage Build to Completion. Architect & Client approves Final Design, Specs.,Cost & Schedule. Architect selects & manages Builder and sub-trades. Inspects Materials & Design/ Build Spec. Compliance under Payment Schedule. No Scope Errors. No Delivery Delay. No Extra Costs / Claims. unsupervised thai Builders cannot be trusted or controlled by amateurs. strong tendency for cutting corners for more profit if (recommended) fixed price lump sum. can walk off the job, leaving you out of pocket and finding replacement builder, who may also walk. yes, this happened to me, twice, on very small works; a house would be a potential nightmare if not thai architect- supervised. alternatively you can believe the expert expats here who will tell you its no problem & architect not needed (extra cost…. seriously). My experience based on Off Plan Town House in Complex without Architect just cost- cutting Builder on Developer Lump Sum and Incomplete Unsupervised Build. I was Out of Country & relied on Developer / Builder / Resident Owners. Two Years after Completion to fix to proper std.…..at Developer Cost. Completely Missed Obvious Under House Apartment …..until Owner Suggestion. My Thai Lady = Architect. She has managed further minor works over the years with local builders after we were ripped off twice in our absence, each by a series of local builders under trusted but poor foreigner supervision, for small roof & apartment extention projects..

trust FDA Approvals: Yes wait FDA final approval : No, FDA Trial & Worldwide Results Sufficient AZ still not FDA-approved after Min. 10 mths FDA Trials. After 75% UK adults fully AZ vaxxed & AZ proven best single overall vax worldwide. Pfizer FDA-fully approved last week. Johnson & Moderna ? dont know. US is 53% fully vaxxed now. FDA phase III trials long since established AZ as 100% effective against Death & Hospital for non- Delta Covid. FDA Results: Non-Political. FDA Approvals : Political, AZ being non- US, coincidence ? Some knowledge gaps here but my point is clear enough.

bruce; my post was clearly in support of covid vaccines. (post correction : replace “treatment” with “immunity”.)

take only customized scientific treatments for covid, i.e. vax. other stuff is ineffective & toxic. exclude general practitioners from term “medical community” for covid purposes. GPs ignore the obvious power of mind/ body/ diet to heal itself from minor ailments, and to boost immune system to better fight of all infections like covid. GPs are taking money from big pharma to prescibe highly addictive opioids & other drugs… relieve symptoms, dont cure some obese sick people in USA are taking over 20 different prescribed common meds each day ….Netflix Doc “What The Health”……..all of which can typically be ditched with a simple plant- based diet with exercise…controlling major internal organ diseases & required surgery is something else…. GPs know no more about diet/ exercise/ nutrition than the informed general public (little training). all vax is great but better in conjunction well- functioning body; disease - free. drug- free.

chinas products are either designs stolen from the west, poor quality or counterfeit. buyer beware….. their CCP maniac terror regime, like their buddies in N Korea, is straight out of Orwells 1984…..a boot stamping on humanitys face forever…….

typical error by uneducated or non-native english speakers…….

recent hsbc atm card problems with scb & kasikorn solved by using UOB atm.

and all the answers in fact interchangeable with all East Asian countries ! glorious ladies all…… !

Definitive response by the peter poster ! prevented by own similar less skilled planned reply !

clearly completely unskilled & unprepared. PPPPPPP……and very lucky indeed…….. let this serve as a warning to others too…….

always assume everything this brutal terrorist regime says are lies.

xylophone response post is definitive. Ivermection is not designed to combat Covid and is in fact proven useless for that. end of…….same with that trump-promoted hydro bleach stuff. why anybody would take any non- customized treatments for anything is completely beyond me…..stupid, useless & dangerous…….then the same fools are typically also anti- vax…..a proven scientific customized covid protection….

so fearful ferguson unaware of the AZ vax possibility then….and his modelling was shown to be wrong……. without vax lets say deaths might have doubled, if so he would still have massive exaggerated the death toll by 250k …..we will never know because of the ” death with covid” rubbish stats. instead of true “ death by covid” figures ( too difficult ?).

“40 people”…. seriously…and “impartial” study by him I suppose….. has the USA FDA or EU MA certified these results ? no,thought not….. this narcissistic rebel has been so massively discredited by numerous expert sources that he clearly has no reputation left…..except as a crank…..hence his justified sacking I suppose……perhaps he could link up,with Graham Hancock and David Icke in his obvious new expertise of pseudo- science……appears to pay well too……

Betamax video cassettes “worked” but the customers wanted VHS. Same with the Bleach thing. You mentioned Tesla. Teslas gear was streets ahead of thevwinning Edison & Westinghouse stuff but business & politics & emotion again won out over best pure science……one (emotional) reason most people including me would never take the bleach is that its original purpose was quite different, same with Ivermectin…..customers want customized solutions, especially when death is involved…….
