Admit it. It's an excuse to get away from the Mrs. and go drinking with your buddies. I just hope they don't DEI it. That would be a real bummer. -

Economy Thailand Plans 10-Year Tourist Visa and 99-Year Land Lease to Boost Economy
I suppose for the farangs who could subsequently get a 99% year lease, it may introduce a lot more danger to their lives. It seems there are a vast number of farangs whole marry Thai women a lot younger than themselves, in many cases for the women it seem the aim is to be married for a few years, let the old farang die off and then take all his assets. If a farang was able to extend his 30 year lease to a 99 year least there might be a lot more fatal "accidents' happening to the farangs who have such properties, now that would be funny. I am quite happy with a year by year 'old bloke' visa extension, put 800k baht in a Thai bank, if things look like they are turning sour in Thailand then spend the 800k and sod off somewhere else, after all we visa extenders are only here on temporary year by year extensions, there are no guarantees. -

Crime Aussie Nabbed with 22kg of 'Ice' at Suvarnabhumi Airport
video screenshot An Australian man, Tran Huybao Khang, 28, was dramatically arrested at Suvarnabhumi Airport just as he prepared to board a Melbourne-bound Thai Airways flight. His arrest came after Bangkok airport security detected 22 kilograms of crystal methamphetamine in his luggage, often referred to as "ice." The incident unfolded on Sunday morning beside flight TG461, where authorities brought him to verify suspicions of narcotics in his bags. The airport's state-of-the-art X-ray system had automatically flagged two of his bags for further inspection after spotting odd shapes within, alerting officials to potential illegal contents. Upon investigation, the suspicions were confirmed as crystal meth was discovered, leading to Khang's swift detainment. The intercepted contraband is believed to have been smuggled on behalf of an international narcotics syndicate expecting delivery in Melbourne. Experts from the Customs Department estimate the seized drugs would fetch approximately 6.6 million Thai Baht on the local market. However, had the meth reached its intended destination in Australia, its value could have skyrocketed to an eye-watering 23 million baht. Authorities are now focused on tracking the drug's origin and dismantling the smuggling network. This arrest highlights the ongoing battle against drug trafficking at international airports, showcasing the effectiveness of modern security measures. The case remains under investigation as authorities work diligently to prevent similar offenses and safeguard the community. The incident underscores the significant risk and heightened vigilance required to combat the global drug trade. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-05-20 -
