Report Foreign Lamborghini Driver Sparks Outrage in Phuket Over Reckless Behaviour
The puritanical 'outrage' is rather hypocritical IMO: I always thought the 'consensus' was the other way round in area's such as Phuket and Pattaya.... Whereby the foreigners are actively targeted. Conversely, elsewhere in Thailand, the BiB aren't interested in foreigners anymore than Thai's - but, anywhere in Thailand, money talks and thats neither specific to foreigners or Thai's. -

Why is there this kind of "impossible communication" between farang and thais ?
Why would a 30yo shop assistant talk to a 70yo plonker on the street? -

Bow your head with great respect
There is no atheist dogma. Theists make claims about god(s), massive claims, without sufficient evidence, or really any evidence. I don't believe the claims. That is not dogma. -

LTR-WP VISA Strategy
Thanks everyone for your input. I did reach out to the BOI as well as an agent in Bangkok, and it looks like the LTR-WP visa may be out of reach for me initially. According to their responses, they require proof of past passive income — such as tax returns (Form 1040) — and showing only future earnings will not be sufficient. Even if there’s a guarantee that I will receive income going forward, the BOI will not accept it without documented history. To qualify under the Wealthy Pensioner category, I would need to show at least USD 80,000 in passive income received over the past 12 months before I could apply. The BOI suggested I wait until my next tax return is filed, as they primarily base eligibility on tax documents like the 1040. The agent in Bangkok also clarified that 401(k) and IRA withdrawals are not considered passive income. Only pensions, dividends, interest, and capital gains qualify. However, I did not receive a clear answer yet regarding whether 401(k) savings (over $100,000 USD) could be used as an alternative to a health insurance plan under the LTR-WP category. Thanks again for everyone’s advice — it’s been very helpful! -

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
the 19.00 and 19.30 slots are not booked and can not be booked anymore because you are too late (booking must be made min 15 min before). this two slots are walk in ... the 22.00 and 20.30 slots are booked .. (off peak price 555) ... maybe i am wrong, but that's the way i do interpret the booking system ...
