Lower if there is conflict in the south china sea. Those surviving here on the OAP need to start right now putting a plan in to place on how to survive when the exchange rate is 10-15baht to the dallar. Not late at all. I have agreed with you in the past on this. Then, there's also the proposed changes to non resident tax enforcement, but that's in another thread. I have suggested that moving to a more affordable country may be the only option for many, that would be Cambodia for most, or, to the village in Thailand, to live out one's days in a pitiful manner.

Do I get free health care in Thailand or Cambodia? Absolutely not. It would consume most of my pension. And those statistics only apply for stupid people who max up their credit cards which I don't have I lived many years in Thailand but moved back to OZ so did my Thai wife of 20 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The money to service such debt has to come from somewhere, either in tax revenue, or cost cutting, which means all Australians either pay more, or lose an amount of services.
