I think she gets 2k a month for this, she started during lockdown then it was 4k a month. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proton Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Birth certificates? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post PETERTHEEATER Posted April 24 Popular Post Share Posted April 24 41 minutes ago, proton said: Birth certificates? In the era they were born the registration of births was often delayed and the hand-written Birth Certificates on soft paper liable to self-destruct over time. The recorded details from information supplied by parents, usually illiterate, resulted, in many cases, with no date of birth and or no month of birth being recorded only the year. For example, my own wife, now 76 has only the Month and Year recorded. Her younger sister has only the Year recorded. Their Thai passports reflect this. The true age of these centenials will never be known and are often exaggerated. My wife's late aunt made it to 107 but by then she was blind yet mobile. Good luck to them. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thingamabob Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 The centurions were given 5000 baht once a year by the Krabi Educational Council. Such stunning generosity... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rexpotter Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Best to the elderly woman, but I have a hard time swallowing the age number. So many here have no idea how old they are or when they were born. So I do not believe the Post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post simon43 Posted April 24 Popular Post Share Posted April 24 I am of the opinion that this old lady is in fact dead, and has been for some time. This is clearly a scam to obtain 5,000 baht each year... 🙂 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobthegimp Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 In Canada there would be members of the medical "profession" trying to talk her into assisted suicide. The woman holding mumzie would have her in a rear naked choke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
