Newly Arrived In Thailand, Need To Know Different Possibilities To Stay

Hi,

i'm newly arrived in thailand and on your forum.

i'm from belgium arrived with a 30 day-visa, i plan to stay in thailand for a long time.

i have in my country a permanent source of revenues, not high but enough to stay in thailand as long as i want.

if possible as you never know what life can be in the future, it would be good to work either for a company or build my own company.

usually what are the cost of company registration all included and the annual minimum fees to pay?

What is the best option for me with this 30 day-visa that expires the 22/12/07?

get a ED thai language visa, build my own company or take a tourist visa at the thai consulate in malaysia or anywhere else in asia.

i did read the 10 first pages of the forum and to my opinon, the best would be to get a ED visa for the beggining, this gives me time to seek for a job or build my own company.

if my thought matches yours, where should i go for this?(school)

Also i'm planning to sell products from thailand outside of thailand(never sell things from outside to thai or thai to thai) by internet, i read in the pages i need a work permit(seems a little strange as this is not work but more an indivual activty generating money for thai people), if so i guess i have to build my own company?

thanks in advance.
