I've had a non-B for over 10 years and now comes the time where I should probably switch to either a retirement visa or DTV. I read DTV isn't a non-imm visa type, so I could run into problems doing things that typically require a non-imm, such as renewing my driving licenses. What would you say are the pros and cons of each ?

Trump Declares Victory and Promises a "Golden Age" for America
tgw replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I'm disgusted and appalled by the election results and now fear the future, even I'm not directly affected. I feel sorry for the minority of decent people in the USA who will have to endure what will come to them. Post-WW2 period has come to a definite end, we just entered pre-WW3 period. Scary thought. -

I hope the EU will fill the gap. What a terrible example the US voters just set. This will have far-reaching consequences. -

to be fair, Kim anyway didn't want these soldiers to come home where they would tell everyone about how people live in Russia, and even more disturbing for them, in Ukraine. Chances are, even if they survived the war, they would have to remain in exile and communications with their families and friends back home would go through a filter. -
I think it's less legible on a computer, and the ads stand out even more. It also looks less serious/credible.

regrettably, this is par for the course for the Ruzzian barbarians which commit murder on a daily basis in Ukraine. -

you are missing the point of that definition. a fighter must fulfil all of these 6 criteria to be classified as a mercenary, notably point (c) saying that mercenaries must be paid substantially more than Ukrainian soldiers. so do you have any proof that foreigners fighting for Ukraine are paid substantially more than Ukrainian soldiers of comparable experience, rank and function ? -

While I somewhat agree with your first point, your second point needs proof. Foreign fighters do fight for Ukraine against Russia, but I don't know of any mercenaries. Do you have proof of mercenaries as defined by the First Additional Protocol to the Geneva Conventions ? https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/api-1977/article-47?activeTab= -

Steak should be cooked with garlic melted into butter.
tgw replied to Gobbler's topic in Western Food in Thailand
I choose my cuts, 350 baht/Kg ribeye. Prefer very dark meat with white marbling and fat. I like crust, so I usually put the steak still frozen in the pan, after flipping it 4-6 times it has a nice crust but is still blue/uncooked in the middle. ready to serve. add pepper, salt. that's it. options are: - a bit of butter basting - sauce béarnaise, homemade -

I'm more and more convinced your zmisha account is just for parody. Nuclear weapons won't help anyone to win the Ukraine war - how many nukes and missiles China has doesn't matter at all. -
Expats in Thailand urged not to worry about negative income tax
tgw replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Making cheap labour unattractive to workers isn't the way to go IMO. It will just cause the middle class to not be able to afford some things anymore, and then it will spiral. -

Expats in Thailand urged not to worry about negative income tax
tgw replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I would view such a development as a major threat to Thailand as a country of residence and of retirement. Firstly, the handouts would have to come from somewhere, and together with the plans for taxation of expats, it's not hard to see why this is a threat. More taxation of Thais and Thai businesses will cause prices to rise, so living costs will rise too. This type of handout will also cause work to become less attractive, so wages will need to go up, which will cause both unemployment and rise of prices. Because of the above, some services will become unavailable or expensive. It's the first step of a recipe for disaster, really. -
