Remember every one like it was yesterday. ????

“Only fare meters passing the inspection, which will be officially sealed with lead, can be used to collect the new fares.” Government announce strange shortage of lead.

It’ll work beyond their wildest dreams, just as long as those stopped for traffic infractions have plenty of Baht about their person. What a cracking idea to hand to the BIB, who no doubt are calculating just how early they will be able to retire to a villa on some tropical island somewhere.

Give it a few months and you’ll realise just how stupid your post was.

Were all the cops in the picture with their backs to us, about to cross their fingers as they say “it’s not me your honour, I’m as pure as the driven snow. All the money in backhanders and brown envelopes I took were given to the local poor children” ????

Never trust a politician or a fart, both could end in deep feacal matter.

Sack the lot and put the rest on night shift. There has always been corruption in Thailand, it is what foreigners expect to see and experience, along with the temples, culture and stomach upsets. ????????

It will become a lot clearer once the required brown envelopes change hands. ????

For my “Retirement Visa” I put Baht 800.000 into my Thai bank on a months long visit when I set up the account in Hua Hin. Went back to UK, then returned 3 months later on a simple 30 day visa which I then changed 3 weeks later to a “Retirement Visa” showed money in bank with updated bank book. The bank gave me a letter when I got book updated without me even asking for one. I occasionally took money out then put more money in to keep account seasoned, but never let it show less that 800K for more than a few days and always made sure it had 800K 3 months before renewing visa. All 90 day reports were done by post and every year renew visa in BKK. The wife’s family (all 6 with Thai passports) come to UK regularly on 6 month family visas and wife and son both have dual citizenship (Thai/British) and travel there with no problems at all. Covid travel restrictions and requirements in both countries are changing by the day, so you shouldn’t have any problems. Good Luck.

It’s Thailand, of course it’s a money making scam. Couldn’t be anything else.

I get £466.54 every 2 weeks, but I live in UK. That includes a protected payment over and above the Maximum state pension amount.

Had a New Kia Soul First Edition since May 2021 in the UK and I’m more than happy with it, despite being a petrol head with some classic fully restored cars in the garages. I only charge at home on cheap overnight electric (5p per kWh) and we’ve done around 13K miles since new. we get around 300miles from a charge and regularly do 270mile journeys without charging anywhere. Having lived in Thailand, I wouldn’t consider getting an EV there as the infrastructure is pretty much non existent. We’ll keep it for 3 years, then trade it in for another model, depending on what new models come online then.
