Thaksin Travels to Singapore for Medical Check-Up, Vows Return
Better doctors/hospitals in Singapore. And as far as we are concerned private care isn't cheaper in Thailand anymore. So better value for money in any case.

Elite Visa appointment suddenly cancelled
I don't see how Elite could keep going for long without these two. Actually, IMO, they should modify the program so that Elite = LTR + additional benefits.. I have LTR, so just trying to make sense.

Bangkok Post - 1 Sept. 2025 Article - 5 Medical Uses
True sadly, even more so with the most likely PM being a drug dealer. Cannabis will make Thailand even softer. Remember it was was one of the drivers of the abject US defeat in Nam.

Smoking weed?
Should be restricted to medical use and palliative care. As far as alcohol is concerned they should ban drinks containing more than 15% and increase somewhat the price of beer.

Buying a new Samsung phone soon
How many Apple devices have you owned? over 20 here with 11 in use now (for the family 4 Ipads, 3 Iphones, 2 Apple watches, Macbook air, Mackbook Pro) beautiful integration, Apple care rocks, have tried Samsung, ditched after 6 months on both occasions. Sadly I couldn't convince wife and daughter to ditch Windows so I have a few of those. Dell laptops just suck compare to Macs. But my Asus TV box will be replaced by a Mac mini soon. Now, I am using this stuff, not benchmarking. And every time I looked at prices I couldn't find the motivation to leave an ecosystem that gives me such a high level of satisfaction.

Bank account frozen
The one thing I don't like is the uncivilised brutality in which they handle a problem they have created. Block the account and talk later, after all only foreigners will be affected. In my book this is totally unacceptable. Reeks of inconsideration and racism. Anywhere else we would be given a 2 months deadline with one reminder at least. Not here where they'll let you starve while your money is frozen, or worse, let you die waiting to get your own money so that can the deposit for the ICU to admit you.

Stick is well aware that he is running out of steam, while we are reaching the end of an era. He was/is a very valuable actor of the Thai expat blogosphere.

Bank account frozen
Why? it could be that they want his visa details, many on tourist visas or DTVs have had their accounts closed/frozen, as per new law. That they issue letters for extensions of stay doesn't mean that the OP's visa details recorded in their system match his current status. A trivial REST Web Service opened by TI for the Banks (and others) would fix this problem. Done that kind of things 15 years ago, between IP offices.
