Change from reirement to marriage visa
GregBow replied to GregBow's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Thank you for the help How would this work? I have the 400k in bank, my superannuation is paid into Aus bank, i send or withdraw from ATM as needed. If I send 50k per month as a standing order to use as the added payment should I set up a bank account seperate for this? How to show it to immigration? -
Change from reirement to marriage visa
GregBow replied to GregBow's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Sorry all. I should have said. The immigration office is Bueng Lan and they have always been extremely helpful and polite. I feel they deal more with Lao people than Europeans from my visits there but either way good experience -

Change from reirement to marriage visa

Then my Non O visa will be invalid? Do I need apply for new visa for marriage? -
Dear all. I retired a year ago and am using 800k in the bank method. I have a car owing about 350k and making monthly payments. Would like to withdraw my 800k retirement and keep 400k marriage money in bank. Thus allowing me to pay off the car. Means changing to marriage visa and extension from current retirement visa on first 12 month extension, which expires in April 2024. Can ypu advise please?

Anti-Loan Sharks Campaign Means No Waiver Of Debt
GregBow replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Per day @ 5% I was told. The 10% per month is jai dee. And supported as you say. Big words will not take local action. HiLo and carc games lend over the table at 10% on the night. All have "support" and pay fees. I cannot see how it can be stopped -
Thank you. Guy is a bit shifty so good to know there can be no "extras".

Vietnam Trip For 1 Month.......Recommendations?
GregBow replied to Troy Tempest's topic in General Topics
If the wife is from Sakon maybe she would like to see the bottom end of the Mekong. An overnight trip if going by road to Can Tho / Me Tho and beyond and the delta or Vietnam tourist agency do a day trip includes a boat ride and lunch. Not too expensive if I remember. Tourist place is opposite Vincom centre easy find -
Vietnam Trip For 1 Month.......Recommendations?
GregBow replied to Troy Tempest's topic in General Topics
Saigon to DaNang to Hue - Imperial Palace. Have a beer and feed at the DMZ bar would suggest Dalat and Pleiku if you can and just work your way round to Hanoi , Halong bay. Lao Cai / Sapa see the mountains and rice terraces. Eat local foods all good. Enjoy and remember what side of the road you should legally be on - but locals may not, as per here watch out for unlit vehicles at night. Enjoy -

Pita ordered to suspend doing his duties as an MP
GregBow replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So he is suspended, but if cleared can they change the PM mid term? If the senate is ??? after next year can the government be reshuffled? -
Thanks so much for your help.

Wow. Thanks, certainly thought provoking. Would be more interested in preventive action than surgery. Maybe cholesterol cleaning meds and better food choices will help. Any other suggestions? Regards Greg

Looking for advice. I am 68 and retired last year. I did a complete physical check at Bangkok hospital in Udon. The ECG and ECO show a blocked left ventricular artery and follow up was recommended with Angiogram and Angioplasty if needed. Angiogram I was quoted 40 to 50k plus another 50k for overnight stay in observation room. If Angioplasty is needed 250k with one stent and 50k per additional. My queries are below 1) If anyone can advise if this is reasonable price? 2) should I do in Udon or would Bangkok be better? Note I live 50 km after Bueng Kan and travel is a nuisance but doable. I now feel a bit uneasy about living in a remote village and think maybe this will drive me to move to the coast near say Rayong. I assume access to Rayong decent medical services and long term rental is a big change to my retirement life plan but after working for so long I would like to live on and enjoy for a while. Thoughts and ideas please?
