Thought it was only foreigners who were working, not old retirees like me who spend a lot of money in this country but get no recognition for doing so.

It is and they even say it on the video. Another TV misleading headline.

Gee whizz you guys (and ladies too) please take a moment to be thankful that this country has welcomed you to live here as a guest.  Yes, there may be hoops to jump through and there may be some corruption but just take a look at what is going on in the West.  Yes, you may pay your way but aren't you lucky to be able to do so?

I am sure you get a lot of cheap goods and services for your "lot of money" and it is not a gift or charity.

 

Do you feel guilty that the money you are spending in Thailand isn't helping the people from your home country?

 

They must be hurting you are not spending your money there, and if you did spend it there would you get much recognition?

 

And did you personally give recognition to foreigners spending money in your home country?

 

But I know how you feel. I just got back from spending 650 baht at Tesco. No red carpet, not even a welcome or a wai.

 

Maybe they should give us foreigners who buy goods and services recognition certificates to hang on our walls.

Next time you go to Tesco's, perhaps try saying this:

 

"Oi, show some respect. I is a foridgener"

Well Clive Baxter,  depending on what your status is (visa etc.) I think you will find that you have more rights than a backpacker.  As for 'lots of money',  I have just enough to buy a 1 BR apt in many western countries with little left over for a car and other things like that (but would not stretch to garage parking in central London).  Here, I built a 100 m2 house, guest house, workshop, garage and a nice pool too on about 4000 m2 of land that I hold an usufruct on.  I have 2 new cars, a pickup, motorbike and electric scooter too.  All paid for and still have money in the bank.  I am free to go for a dog walk every morning beside a calm reservoir and greet my farmer neighbors with smiles that cannot be seen as we are all masked.  

 

There are plenty of less desirable places to be, including the countries many of us come from.  Don't forget who is responsible for most of the wars and world wide poverty when you are finding fault with our host country and the people who live here. 

 

Kind Regards

I was thinking a 21 gun salute and an airforce flyover with a fireworks show.
