I can't answer to that, except that it is a massive generalization and very much depends on where you live and how you interact with those around you. We have never seen this kind of problem. In any event, the child is not just Thai, she is mixed race, just as much Brit as Thai. And what makes anyone think that its any better in Thailand? Why is instilling Thai culture a thing? Doesn't the child have a right to find her own cultural balance as she grows up? My daughter did just that.

Utter BS

It is terrible, we all know it is, so that statement is nonsense. Just because other systems are not perfect doesn't make Thailand's food, its just not. UKs is miles better even though not perfect.

He's right. Do you think for one second that the Thais would take any notice of the Hague Convention? You sound like a straight up guy, who just want's to keep everything friendly, but good guys don't always get what they want.

Sorry to stress this again, but that is meaningless in law here. It gets you nowhere, if other matters are raised by your ex. The fact that it was an IVF birth could be a real negative,. Our daughters Birth Cert was rejected as proof of parenthood at the first step. So was my UK Court Affidavit, sworn in front of a UK High Court Judge and submitted to the Thais. .

She could, but if she does, there must be a good chance she will never return. Get a banning order.

Oh dear my friend, you have no idea how it works here. I can see how you will fail to get what you want and what the child needs, if she comes here and you use the Thai Court system. Just getting UK Court documentation into the Thai court system will not help. Its Thai law that matters here, not foreign Court judgements.

OP this story makes me so sad. Do not let her bring the child here, please . If the child is settled in the UK, leave her to live her life there. You will not have any rights here in LOS; however hard you try. The child will not thank either of you if she is living and so called educated here in LOS. I know of what I say. My Thai Brit daughter, 24 year old now, is in the UK, fully educated there and happy to stay there. Despite all we tried to do, and her mother and I are as one on this, we had horrendous problems with me being recognized her biological Father here. Do PM me and I will share the details of all we went through. Just don't let the child out of the UK until you have the full facts, if you ever do. Be well prepared to get a restraining order to prevent the child leaving the UK. Please do all you can to keep her there. Your relationship with the Mother is immaterial to the life and later wishes of the child. As an aside, our daughter dislikes Thailand and only comes here on sufferance. Let her make her own decisions when she is 18. By the way, a few million Baht will be needed for lawyers/court fees if you go down the route of trying to get recognition here.

It always makes me chuckle when I hear Russia throwing out its threats to NATO of massive retaliation for some statement made by a Western politician. They seem to forget that whatever they threw West they would get back 10 fold x 10 again. To use part of Air Marshall Harris's speech in 1942 about the Nazis, applicable to the Russians 72 years later: , 'They entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everybody else and nobody was going to bomb them. They sowed the wind and now they are going to reap the whirlwind'. Russia may yet see that whirlwind. '

Absolutely right

They will rue the day they ever got involved with the Chinese and those that jumped on the EV band wagon and bought that rubbish will weep.

This present Chinese EV idiocy is all going to end in tears. I give it 5 years before it dawns on the lemmings that they have been dupped and ripped off.

Who knows, even they don't know

I wouldn't.

Put any old thing, they never read them

A Covid virus, in one form or another, has been known about, or at least experienced, by humans for hundreds of years. Covid 19 was just its latest manifestation. Like a London bus, another one will be along shortly.

Hey wifey, read this 😁

So long as I'm peeing and ejaculating, nothing on Earth would make me undertake a procedure for just having an enlarged prostate, especially in LOS, where the priority in healthcare is money.

Vanes broken, twice in one unit. All three had the same vanes problem, clearly poor manufacturing issues. Replaced them all with Daikin.

Bought three, all broken within 12 months, utter rubbish

Daikin, no argument, but not cheap

It always did. I have never been a fan of Thai food. In my view it has an undeserved reputation, among those who only experience it in expensive western restaurants. Here, in very many cases and locations, it can be bland, or worse still, taste disgusting and inedible.

Then relax mate

Well we all know that it no use asking Monks for any help. They showed their true colours during Covid, all me., mer. me.

If I had been, I would still be in Jail.
