What is the attitude of Thailand regarding farang retiring here to pass? Like, not the guys who go broke and want to do weird shit before hopping out hotel windows, but just like really old/sick people?
TLDR : Answer Summary
Thailand generally welcomes retirees, including elderly or sick foreigners, as long as they can afford their own care. There are nursing homes and caregiving services available that cater to expats, often at lower costs compared to their home countries. The expat community mentions that having adequate financial resources alleviates concerns about healthcare and living arrangements. Furthermore, there is a growing interest in establishing facilities and services aimed at providing care for older foreign residents.
