TLDR : Answer Summary

The post discusses an individual's desire to migrate from their country due to a lack of freedom of speech, seeking opportunities in sales and cricket coaching. It has sparked various comments addressing the misconceptions about freedom of speech in Thailand, the viability of cricket coaching as a profession there, and the general struggle of expats regarding citizenship rules and rights in Thailand. Many participants express skepticism about the idea of a better life in Thailand due to its own strict regulations, particularly regarding freedom of speech.

Yes. And your country will never have freedom because everyone who value freedom migrates out to UK. No one tries to better it/develop it.

Everybody has freedom of speech, as long as you have the physical ability to speak. Speaking does not require permission to perform. As long as you can physically pronounce words, you can say them. But there will always be consequences to what you say. The biggest lie ever told is telling people they wont ever experience negative consequences for what they say.
