Hello everyone,

I have been facing serious legal challenges that have left me feeling trapped and in distress.

Recently, I was involved in a legal matter that resulted in a harsh penalty 1 years prison instead of similar case is just a fine, which I believe was unjust due to multiple violations of my rights throughout the process. I have experienced threats, physical harm, and coercion that have significantly affected my well-being and much more, give me my sentence only after tell me to say no for a lawyer, i said 2 word during the court hearing who take less than 2 min. This is my first offense, and I have a clean criminal record, i paid the fees damages but one of them was know by the judge.

Currently, I have to make appealing the decision, but I am deeply concerned about the possibility of being stuck in Thailand for 6 months to a year without the ability to work or support myself here. This situation is not only financially burdensome but also mentally challenging, as I fear for my safety and psychological well-being. They also dont allowed to me to leave the country i cannot leave there.

I am looking for any advice on how to navigate this situation, particularly:

• Recommendations for legal assistance or NGOs that can help with my case.

• Any contacts or resources within expatriate groups that may provide guidance.

• Suggestions for how to resolve these issues amicably before my appeal.

I appreciate any support or information you can provide. Thank you for taking the time to read my message.

Morning

Hello everyone, does anyone have experience with applying for work permit yourself after setting up a private ltd company? From what i read online it says that I need VAT Registration, Audited Financial Report etc which I dun have because my company is only a few months old. So am i able to apply for the work permit? Please advise. Thank You.

So my marriage scheme doesn't seem to be working out.

The wife wants a divorce and she seems pretty serious.

We're not really talking now and she doesn't seem to want to listen to reason. Suppose that is her prerogative.

What is the process if she wants a divorce and I do not?She has to petition the court?

Will that make problems for me leaving Thailand? I have travel plans next month.

What happens when you die as an UK ex pat living in Thailand..does the Thai authorities inform the British Embassy in Bangkok who in turn inform UK embassy and HMRC and private pensions..the reason I ask is I have a Thai wife and 6 month son..my police pension people have my Thai wife as beneficiary when I die..but I need to know who needs informing in UK and what docs they need eg Thai death certificate translated..I live in rural Issan (only ferang) I have given my police pension info to my Australian brother in law in Melbourne who is married to my wifes sister so in the event of my death he can contact the pension department ..I have sent an enquiry form to the pension dept re this but after 5 weeks received no reply..I am 64 and hope to live a lot longer however no one knows..just want to know my wife and son are going to be ok if the worse happens. Thanks in advance stay safe
