On purpose? ☹️ What's more important, retired foreigners living in their penthouse in Sakhon Nakhon with their 50k a month or temporary unemployed working foreigners getting 8k a month? <deleted>, retirees get lots of benefits from the govt. already. How many countries do you know where foreigners can retire so easily and comfortably? As a Thai, if I want to retire to the USA, I need to invest 16,000,000 baht. USA people coming here need to pay 1,900 baht a year and show they have enough funds to survive. 2 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenophobes and racists countries don't necessarily admit to being xenophobic or racist. You have to keep up appearances. Like saying you have human trafficking under control when it clearly is not. So? Blah blah blah blah blah. Try living in my skin Suchart. Remember Anutin. "Ai farang. Ai farang nak tang-tiow." "**** farangs! ***** farang tourists!" We're all well loved by you people. Who are you attempting to convince with that press release. Ask farangs where they stand in vaccinations lines in most of Thailand.

I assume you mean foreigners, not farang(an uncountable noun). Foreigners have equal opportunity to get vaccines. Don't write nonsense like 'soi dogs', as they are not getting vaccinated. What's the difference between tramps and homeless? Many foreigners, although living here for years, couldn't be bothered to register at a hospital(same as homeless tramps) or get the required pink ID card. 3 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mikebell Posted July 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2021 Wish I'd taken a screen shot of the Bangkok/Pattaya hospital's home page where it specifically said no dirty foreigners need apply. When I went back it had been changed to 'no more vaccines.' 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham has a very large amount of foreigners, more than say, Khon Kaen. Birmingham has 240,000 citizens that were not born in the UK! Foreigner means someone that is not a citizen of the country they are in. Birmingham also has a large number of ethnic Asians, but the have mostly integrated into the culture, becoming citizens, unlike foreigners here who prefer not to integrate, yet complain profusely when they are not treated as such.
