Popular Post mikebell 22165 Posted December 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2022 Agree with ChrisY above. I fell for the Company House owning scam. 51% owned by Thai. When my Thai ex & I fell out, the court awarded me 25% of the house/contents value after paying double that in lawyers fees. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzian 2577 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 21 minutes ago, jaywalker2 said: Gee, I wonder what nationality he was? It does look like someone is following the new policy of not reporting the nationality of foreigners accused (and convicted?) of crimes. But they have not stopped reporting the nationality of foreigners involved in unfortunate accidents, which to me makes the crime restriction seem absurd. Also the crime restriction is contrary to freedom of speech, but yes, I know, there's none of that here anyway. ALSO: if it is really China that caused the change in crime reporting I think we have a right to know, but again I feel absurd even using the word "right". And what Thai ID card are they talking about? That has confused me for a while, since I have a "pink card", perfectly legal for me; but of course it doesn't say I am Thai. So they are talking about a similar card saying one is Thai? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gottfrid 7803 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 If a person of other nationality is so stupid that he applies for a Thai citizen ID, then he surely qualified for losing 200 million baht. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gknrd 1295 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) That is not but about 6 million dollars / 3 = 2 million.. Joke of the day I guess. Hundred of thousands here with that being sponsored.. Drop that down to 100,000 and you would lock up half of Thailand that were living with a. foreigner. Edited January 3 by Gknrd Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
