he was making a joke, not being rude. Get a sense of humor, friend.

Also, we all know you're lying. 90 day reports online is just a myth. A fairy tale.

What are the frustrations faced by expats applying for Thai visas during the pandemic?

Steve *******

same. I came here because I fell in love with the place. But over time, the wail falls off and you can't stand all the stupid bs over here.

Girlfriend is desperate to live in a functioning country too, so we're leaving 👍

oh, I see the dilemma.

South America has a ton of amazing options that are just better than Thailand, if you can relocate with your gf that could work.

I'm planning to do something similar in 2022, but I have been in Thailand for 4 years now.

Can Australians move to Thailand permanently?

Steve *******

@Shane *********

don't have experience in Indonesia, bit mostly all asian countries have better, less steal-y, scam-y immigration systems than Thailand, so I would recommend looking into Vietnam and the Philippines before making a decision.

Will my Kasikorn bank account remain open after my insurance matures, and can I access my savings?

Steve *******

I haven't heard of any banks that close your account without your consent or a 1 year notice.

Your account is definitely available to you, just don't lose your bank book as it's still 1942 in Thai banks.

Why do some Thai immigration offices issue an 'under consideration' stamp for visa extensions instead of an immediate extension?

Steve *******

Basically, it's because this is Thailand and there are no set rules. Everything is up to the immigration officer that gets your passport on their desk, on the particular day you go to immigration.

The system is ancient, broken and there is no change in sight. Viva Thailand 0.5 🥳
