  1. I recently left Thailand for a holiday but now with this news and the expected change of visas that will be modified and cancelled I have no desire to return and will calmly wait for what their stupid decisions will be yet to come because I am convinced that more bad news for expats is coming.
  2. Thank you for providing more information on the law in Thailand, but in my country this does not happen and therefore in a country like Thailand where this is possible perhaps with false accusations that you have made an untruthful statement it raises all the danger bells for me which is to laugh about in Thailand. I didn't survive three months in Thai prisons, so the consequences of these new tax rules are becoming very dangerous for us expats.
  3. The mere mention of prison in Thailand makes it much less attractive to expats now
  4. Forget this possibility as you would have to indicate all your banking details that you have all over the world
  5. Now you begin to understand why rich people (Including Thais) have several residences in various countries.
  6. I assume that all expats now hold their breath, relax for another 24 hours and we would have cancelled our visa and perhaps changed it to a visa that is very easy to obtain without bureaucratic complications upon entry and perhaps even upon exit, well it will cost a little more but who love doesn't count.😁 Or maybe not....
  7. Yes, you're right, but taking a photo with the "criminal" they arrested has a greater chance of making a career.
  8. ""Atkin has fled the country and may be hiding in Thailand. "" Who think this, TAT ?
  9. You don't have to be a genius to understand that these visa changes are to attract more Chinese and Indians and Russians so you can predict that rents and construction of houses and condos will increase in price as happened in Canada, Australia, NZ and the US, as a result It may be that the cost of living will increase considerably in Thailand, all of which corresponds well to why Seerta was chosen as PM.
  10. So listen keep working in your hospital as long as you can not everyone is fit to be retired.
  11. Not if every month you deposit the money you pay to your insurance in the bank and you have between 3 and 5 million, it is clear that if you start at 70 and then later reach these sums, or simply if you have some previous savings and therefore You say you are self insured which I think is the majority on this forum who claim to be self insured
  12. Yes, the good news about immigration is always the same as asking you for more money. For Thai insurance, no problem for grandparents, they will pay 400,000 THB annually to obtain maybe the max same amount of reimbursements as current Thai insurance offers.
  13. Maybe it's just my impression but I'm afraid I won't see any improvement for retired people, what criteria and new conditions for September 2024 ?, actually a worsening but we'll have to wait and see
  14. He is a businessman and don't ask what business.
  15. Have you noticed that Thais don't drink Stella Artois and they do not eat grass-fed Australian beef.😁
  16. Where is the link to your statements?
  17. Many accidents have happened recently with Boeing and even in this case with the plane falling 1800 meters in flight it is not very logical for so-called turbulence as I would instead call it a free fall of the plane as if the engines had stopped and that the pilots then managed to send them back, don't let the passengers talk, there's something very serious going on Here they want to hide the real reasons
  18. Frankly I don't know, what I do know is that my wife is asking me for more money so I suppose that yes, life has become more 40% expensive, This 40% is my wife's request
  19. It would be interesting to know what their disagreement was.
  20. Yes I understand but you have to read history the British Indian Empire if you not know
  21. Indians and Pakistanis were part of the same British empire before their partition
  22. However, it is funny to note that the English are now governed by Indians, once their servants.
  23. Exactly, if you have made investments in Thailand and they tell you that you have to stay out for a year or three years to avoid paying 5000 in taxes I find it very risky but if you are free to change the country without regrets or losses then try your luck if you have to pay high taxes in Thailand.
  24. The question that many ask themselves and I ask myself too is whether we will be asked when we renew our visa if we have filed our taxes? If this is the case, but it remains to be confirmed what will happen in concrete terms, let's assume that I don't declare anything and that they don't give me an extension of the visa, obviously I will have to leave when the visa expires, but I have the possibility of leaving and requesting another visa or Will I be marked as persona non grata? The issues in this case follow one another and could go very distant and not pleasant. For those who are not far behind the 560,000 should ask themselves if the game is worth the risk.
