Everyone ready? Seems to be a lot of changes planned for cryptos in Thailand. Digital money?
Realy? I thought the article made made some good points. What if this technology comes so quickly that nobody’s very ready for it? As an old crusty myself, I can remember when the Internet came and nobody was really ready for that. It took a long time before people got used to knowing how to send email and things like that. This will be similar but will affect money transfer, not just sending data. -

You have completely, utterly, and 100% missed his point. -

Pattaya restaurants.
So Naklua rd is easy for you. Tortis would be my first spot. It's after 14/1 when coming from roundabout. https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100076127750130 -

British husband of the Thai ‘Lady of the Hills’ bailed - video
Of course he is, until the court says otherwise. It's the same tragedy when people assume guilt over rape or child porn or murder whatever, for now the dude IS innocent. Presumption of innocence should be a fundamental right 😞 This is what happens when the internet piles on with guilty until innocent https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-cumbria-64943465 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-8718345/Sister-boy-17-killed-falsely-accused-rape-shares-ordeal.html https://metro.co.uk/2018/03/19/man-took-life-fake-rape-claim-left-living-hell-7397912/ -

My friend wants to stay in an artsy area of bangkok. Is there such an option?
Ari to Chatuchak is hipster and cool. It is home to the most hip coffee places and the area around Chatuchak is also a historical neighborhood for woodworking. Soi Ari is definitely worth checking out, but it is very thai with an international touch, not many foreigners. Phra Athit Road near Kao San Road and that entire area is not only tourism, it is also very artsy because of the nearby Thammasat University, which is the liberal progressive university in Bangkok. -

Uk Visa Advice
Why was it £18,600? The threshold was originally set at £18,600 after the coalition government considered advice from the Migration Advisory Committee (MAC). The MAC’s report recommended a minimum gross income threshold of between £18,600 and £25,700 per year. The range reflected different approaches to calculating when someone would cease to be a burden on the state, with £18,600 the threshold on one methodology and £25,700 the threshold on another. The lower threshold of £18,600 represented the level of annual gross pay above which a couple would not receive any income-related benefits. The MAC estimated that 45% of sponsors would fall short of the lower threshold amount and 64% of sponsors would not satisfy the upper threshold. The government chose the £18,600 option. The coalition said that it expected to review the level of the financial requirement annually. In the event, it remained at £18,600 until 2024 (although the Conservative Party’s 2017 general election manifesto had committed to increasing the threshold). In April 2024, the Sunak government increased the threshold to its current level of £29,000 (see section 4 below). This time the MAC was not involved. Various sources of income and funding can be used to meet the financial requirement, although there are conditions and restrictions. One important restriction is that the visa applicant’s employment income can only be taken into account if they are already in the UK with permission to work (that is, if they are applying to ‘switch’ immigration category or extend an existing partner visa). Otherwise, only the sponsor’s employment income can be considered for the initial visa application. This condition has prevented some British people from being able to return to the UK with their partner. https://researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/SN06724/SN06724.pdf
