Created in India

Incorrect. Chicken Tikka was indeed created in India. However, Tikka Masala was created in UK.

So?? Source??

For citizenship you need to be able to sing the national anthem, read, write and speak Thai. There is a limit by nationality also.

There is no limit. If you are married to a Thai wife/husband you don't need to read,write, or speak Thai after 2008 Nationality Law amendment. Oh, also no singing required.

• PR holders CAN vote in local elections — provincial, municipal, tambon (sub-district).
• Only national elections are restricted.

  "Permanent residents have the right to vote in local elections."

Unbelievable, you've absolutely no idea.

Foreigners with PR can NOT vote in local elections.

The fact that foreign residents are included in the population registry (ทะเบียนราษฎร์) does not translate into voting rights — having one’s name on the registry for population counts does not mean the right to vote

 

 

According to the Municipal Election Act (พ.ร.บ. การเลือกตั้งสมาชิกสภาท้องถิ่นหรือผู้บริหารท้องถิ่น), a person must have Thai nationality to be eligible to vote in local elections.

Please take the time to read official websites. Not the ones that advertise law firms and advisors angling for business, like the one you linked to in a previous comment.

 

You are aware of the January 2022 amendment, aren't you?

Unbelievable.

What you have copied, in an effort to appear knowledge is total BS.

You need a WP to work if you have PR and the jobs are restricted.

...And this one really proves the point: the stats are invented, the source is imaginary, and the logic evaporates on contact with reality.

After reading this thread, it is clear that few care about the woman who was murdered.

Amenndment to the 2008 act you quoted.

Is this thread about a Birmingham bus stop attack that killed a women, or about Thai PR/Citizenship?  Why not argue in a more relevant thread?

You are speaking about two different things. Citizenship and PR.

 

The cost and the salary requirements are different. PR is not 80k. Also there are language requirements. PR requires an "understanding" of Thai. 

 

For citizenship you need to be able to sing the national anthem, read, write and speak Thai. There is a limit by nationality also.

You've made a silly mistake, posting a law firms website thinking it's official. Have the integrity to apologise 😔 

Also, there is nothing in the website you linked that says there is a limit by nationality for citizenship.

 

You frankly haven't a clue what you're talking about.

For citizenship all you need to do is write your name in Thai, absolutely no other written requirements.

 

 

You can't provide any evidence as you are wrong.

Are you really saying that they are more frequent knife crimes BECAUSE they are black?

What an utterly racist post. How about restricting black immigrants and only accept white ones?

Sounds good to me, the crime rate will certainly go down. 

"As of recent data, approximately 34.9% of individuals in federal prison are Black, 30.7% are Hispanic, and 29.9% are White. This reflects significant racial disparities, as Black individuals make up about 13% of the general U.S. population but represent a much larger percentage of the prison population."(From Duck, Duck Go, Search Assistant) 

 

Interesting statistics and the reason to be aware of certain individuals.

As people have said, we are way off topic. Two posters have proved your comments to be incorrect.

 

Time to leave it at that.

Looks like @mikeymike100 is avoiding apologising being wrong too.

I've not aadke any questions about the victims. Here's what I asked, just to jog your selection e memory.

 

 

Look at statistics. The illegals have the highest number of crimes committed by them based on proportion. The UK has enough nutters, we don't need to import more. Kick all the illegals out and yes we will still have crime but we wont be paying for it or giving them preferential treatment.

That still doesn't answer my questions.
