"One of the groups included in the survey comprised workers who travel to different locations, using mobile devices to perform their jobs remotely at coffee shops or public libraries." I can't see how anyone can work efficiently sitting in a coffee shop. Talk about stereo-typing! As for public libraries, does Thailand have them? ????

Should be cremated locally.

No, not me Guv, I was down Pattaya Library that night reading poems. ????

So, seeing how he can only own 49% of a bar, how much did that leave him after paying his silent (Thai) partner?

You may be unable to manage your financial affairs without government intervention but some of us grown-up adults are fully capable of managing our own finances. ????

'Could not' or 'would not'? The OP says he came with friends? Presumably they have all chipped in themselves.

Disagree, travel insurance can be expensive and also can be inaccessible due to age or medical history.

Here we go again!! ????????

Hey! Less of the drunk tourists please!

By "bar owner", do you mean "bar 49% owner" ? The other 51% being owned by the obligatory Thai partner. Enuff said. ????

When the time comes to depart this life, how many expats want either A) Their bodies flown to their home country. B) Their body cremated down the local Wat?

If I should die, think only this of me: That there’s some corner of a foreign field That is for ever England. There shall be In that rich earth a richer dust concealed; A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware, Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam; A body of England’s, breathing English air, Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home. And think, this heart, all evil shed away, A pulse in the eternal mind, no less Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given; Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day; And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness, In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

Why?? ????

There are people on this forum who have been having problems receiving OTP to Thai phone numbers fro their home countries. Best to stay with your own country's phone companies for the time being.

Just raise the land under the house not the whole plot.

Are you sure you are not over estimating your libido? You might have to get a younger man in to do the job!

I live upcountry, we have mossies here the size of a man's hand.... they don't just fly into the bedroom, they kick the door down. ????

The only people who have made money out of bars are the ones who sell a bar to a farang and then buy it back at a fraction of the price when it inevitably flops!

These are useful in the bedroom.... Yage

Sure, in addition to electric mosquito killers. There is no single solution. Build up your protection in layers.

Don't you find, sitting up in your bed all night long with an electric swatter in your hand, a bit tiring though?

Why not put the link to it here then?
