As someone who lives in Thailand I feel I am entitled to comment on a Thai focused forum. Do you live in Thailand, or just come here to post Left Wing propaganda? I never see you on the "where can I buy a ..." type threads.
More relaxed way of life, less rules/permissions etc, less bills, less stress, more Sun, people generally much nicer and friendlier. Get laid whenever you want.😉
Maybe phrased poorly but wasn’t talking about professional criminals, as you say they have other options.
More likely is someone who has 500k but no income (e.g. gap year student, person made redundant in home country, etc.). They come with intention of staying 6 months but decide to try a “side hustle” to prolong their stay.
Removing the soft power options, requirement to maintain a balance to re-enter and / or ability to demonstrate a minimum (legitimate) income would reduce chance of this type of abuse.
Ordinarily I wouldn’t care what people do but any reports of abuse of DTVs will give IO an excuse to deny entry or demand bribes - something I don’t want!
