Unskilled labor opportunities in Pattaya
None. If they aren't Thai and lack a work permit prospects are slim. Imm cops are busting barbers, cooks, and the like three a penny. Unskilled work in Thailand limits them to busking, begging or hooking. -

Labour The Rise of the New Nasty Party
That is a gross distortion of the reality, the usual selective evidence (George Osborne would approve) - concentrating on the better off segment of pensioners rather than those worse off, if not the absolute poor.Many new Labour MPs are indignant and as mentioned the Prime Minister is displeased with the Chancellor's position.It's early days but it's becoming clear that this administration isn't very clever at the politics of governing. -

New travel rules: Thailand’s ETA to shake up visa-free visitors
If this ETA would be same as e-visas, where creating a profile and logging into the system is required, you can more or less forget any elderly foreigners coming for tourism purpose from the "visa-free" countries, as they'd get lost in that page and give up, and switch to Malaysia or Philippines or... many other destinations that actually want them. This visa-free thingy was basically a con. First you tell some countries they no longer need visas, then you tell everyone that the need one. Just called differently. I wonder how long, after arrival numbers tank, this will all become a "misunderstanding". And don't get me wrong - I think ability to check people before they come is a good thing - but this isn't the right way of doing it. Especially troubling visitors to do it every time they travel. -

Tory Councillor’s Wife Pleads Guilty to Racial Hate Post Remanded in Custody
Only a suspended sentence for Mohamed. It would appear that actually rioting is not as bad as posting on FaceBook about rioting. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cqjlx4rye82o I guess there were no cells available for this guy or the child rapist. The prisons are simply too full, they say. Of course, they will find one for the Tory FaceBook poster, as well as the guy who repeated Rayner's promise that immigrants will be shared equally to every town. That was simply unforgivable and a lengthy sentence was inevitable, they say. They'll release some prisoners early to make space for "serious" crimes like stupid FaceBook posts. Two Tier Britain in full effect. -

That's not true. I went to Chaengwattana five or six times during Covid and never needed or used a QR code. They are not needed at all. -

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
I know this is off topic, but started with my finance quote for the Sealion. Went to Honda for a Wave i125, cash price 57900 plus registration and insurance, all in 61160. As soon as I mentioned finance, the basic price went up 11,000 before interest was added, at however only 1.1%. Still costing 80,000 for 42 months. Rip off eh? -

Labour The Rise of the New Nasty Party
Oh so now Starmer is guilty of the excess deaths from winter 22/23 caused by the Tories protecting energy company windfall profits at cost to consumers. But let’s look at energy prices over the period you want to use to back your baseless claim. Clearly prices over that period where at historical highs and have since reduced significantly. Apples and Oranges Jonny. https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/press-release/energy-prices-fall-again-winter -

paying taxes in thailand as an american
I have been following the discussion regarding SS and spouse benefits. I wonder if anybody knows the answer to my situation. I am an American citizen, age 72, legally married, in the US, to a Thai citizen, age 58, since 2016. We live in Thailand full-time. Thai spouse has a SS number but no SS work credits. Would he qualify for spouse benefits when he turns 62 and survival benefits after I pass away? We do not plan to live in the US for 5 years. Thanks in advance if anyone has any information on this type of marriage situation. -
