    ... and very dangerous country with high crime rates

    The problem is not only the politicians, but also the people, a large part of the population, which does not care: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/4/12/how-chiang-mai-became-the-worlds-most-polluted-city

    Look up the total number of road deaths per annum in Thailand via Google, divide by 365 and compare with the Songkran / New Year numbers. I actually did this sometime in the past and indeed the numbers are not really much inflated compared to the rest of the year

    The number of road deaths is of course a total disgrace. But about 80% of the deaths are motorcyclists. So as long as you only drive by car, then things actually do not look so bad. Worse than Western countries, but not off the charts

    The AQI in the U.S. where this whole thing was first invented is only defined until 500, presumably because people did not imagine that values would go higher: (https://www.airnow.gov/sites/default/files/2020-05/aqi-technical-assistance-document-sept2018.pdf)

    Not any longer after the huge influx of Russians apparently

    Not true. Hua Hin also had significant bad air this year

    You mean they are not legally enforceable?

    So why don't you wait until transferring your pension money to Thailand, do it only in each following year and avoid the tax in Thailand?

    Do they charge for the receipt of SMS abroad?

    mold phuket

    K2938 replied to theonetrueaussie's topic in Phuket

    Thank you. And what do you do if you for example were to visit your home country for a couple of months so you could not do this? Really then either live with the mold or have somebody come into your place for ventilation regularly I assume (which for privacy reasons I would not really like)?

    mold phuket

    K2938 replied to theonetrueaussie's topic in Phuket

    So that means when renting an apartment in Phuket long-term it would be difficult to leave it unattended for a month or two while traveling outside Thailand?

    Installed Win 11 some time ago and downgraded again because various third-party programs did not properly work.
  15. K2938
    How did you manage to do this?

    Not really as true as you think... "Conclusion This study does not support the strong theoretical claims of marital protection and suggests that marriage exerts a mix of protective and adverse effects on health." https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jomf.12784

    Malaysia still has a lot of rain forests, so no farmer there wants to burn something. Also in parts now rainy season and flooding

    In spite of the less than stellar performance of the LTR visa in terms of applications and visas issued, the BOI is apparently still maintaining its '1 million LTR visas issued in 5 years' goal ... https://thethaiger.com/hot-news/visa/thailand-still-pushing-its-unattractive-ltr-10-year-visa
  20. K2938
    Do you know where you got it? It is currently far out of the rainy season which is why I am asking.
  21. K2938
    So you will NOT be able to get SMS abroad if you have not activated roaming abroad prior to leaving Thailand? And are SMS received abroad then free of charge to receive, please?

    Distance Chicago - Bangkok according to Google: 8,553 miles, distance Berlin - Bangkok: 8,598 miles. So there is pretty much no difference! According to the latest findings, the earth is actually not flat????
  23. K2938
    The climate is really only truly pleasant in Thailand during the cold season which is about four months from Nov to the end of February and now the pollution further reduces this by about a third. Not great for a tourist destination...
  24. K2938
    Yes, the written statement certainly sounds much different from the prior verbal statement somebody reported above that 'with an employee using the LTR-WFT visa to work from Thailand, there is no liability for the employer for PE or taxes.'
  25. K2938
    If your Non-O is expiring in late March and you want to go down the LTR route, then it would be most urgent time to apply . The 20 working days processing time mentioned by the BOI is largely a myth and even if you apply right now, you might run into timing problems.
