On the contrary. They all know what to do - put a functional worker visa in place. It's too emotional an issue to settle. This keeps everyone barking at each other, distracting them while the government is robbing them blind.

Nonsense. That's like saying, "We'll have to wait until no more water is seeping in before we can discuss fixing the dike."

And blacklisted.

It was rabid. THAT was the reason.

What more can we say that hasn't been said ad nauseum?

The first post led to a LOT of confusion. When sydneybear (SB) initially posted possession of an MBA but no Bachelors, I thought SB's understanding of an MBA was different than a typical MBA, and I STILL don't understand how anyone can get an MBA without first earning a Bachelors. Something just doesn't pass the smell test.

You need the Bachelors to get a work permit. The ONLY way to teach legally without a Bachelors is as a Teacher's Aid/Assistant. Those jobs are rare. There will be some who will tell you there are schools that will hire you without the degree, and if you work there, you stand a chance of being busted, thrown out of the country and blacklisted.

I wonder whose relative is gonna get the contract for this waste of money?

Maybe technically, but the two are worlds apart. I've lived in both, they're like yin and yang.

I'd let you know I don't care about your not caring but I don't care enough to do so. ????

I spent a month in Phuket and will never return. It's an OK place to visit, but to live there? HELL no! And Pattaya? ALSO HELL no. Jomtien is the best place to me. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I like it.

Don't know, don't care. Happy New Year!

I'd start seeking life elsewhere. This is just the beginning.

Note: Remember folks, don't waste your time providing evidence to 45 supporters. They won't heed it and just want you spinning your wheels needlessly.

The link indicated in the latest few posts is one example of a Republican vote rigging. I'm not gonna bother researching the gerrymandering atrocities Republicans (and some Democrats) do, the majority are Republican. The same with changing election laws making it difficult for Democrats to vote. There are numerous Republicans publicly saying "we'd never win another election if voting was fair."

If you meet the requirements, by all means do it yourself. I thought the process would be too difficult, so for my first "retirement" visa, I used an agent. She messed it up which cost me more than 40k baht overall. I then went to the embassy in Bangkok and asked them what the correct process was. They told me, "We don't do that here so go away." I replied, politely but firmly, "I am staying until someone explains the details of the process," which they reluctantly did. t's very simple, and unless you have a physical impairment preventing you (or you have more money than sense), go for it yourself.

OK, I don't get it. They post his actual name but pixelate his photo. He's clearly guilty, the finger pointing proves it. Why still blur the photo?

The point is, HE'S REPUBLICAN.

I am SOOOOO glad I learned not to give a sh!t how others think I should live. The day I had that epiphany was the day I started living a most meaningful life.

I believe you must have missed the part where this guy was gathering Republican votes fraudulently. This merely subtracts votes from the disgraced, treasonous former occupant of the White House.

Yeah, we'll all sleep so much better now.

But will they return the confiscated passports to their comrades or is this just a move to bring in foreign money?

I don't get it. Are import taxes so high as to restrict importing pork? Is there enough profit in smuggling to make it worth jail time?

Back in the day, they were drooling, waiting for the chance to jump in with the most outlandish defenses of the tangerine traffic cone of treason. Most now are silent and I'm hoping it's because they realized they backed the wrong horse's a$$.

I'm sure there are plenty on this forum who remember the horrible feces-throwing arguments that 45 supporters engaged in some years ago. I sense they finally woke up to what a turd that disgraced traitor is.
