With Thailand getting more and more aggressive with its immigration policies and how it is gearing it towards basically robbing anyone that comes into the country by just the flick of a pen when it comes to their Banking and immigration policies I would not be surprised if Thailand's at fault for this because Thailand tends to change things and not care about the repercussions especially in regards of the legalization of a particular plant and now trying to as we like to say put the toothpaste back in the tube that's just going to end up causing more conflicts here in Thailand there needs to be policy change in this country really just towards other aspects because such radical changes lead to dire consequences to those uninformed keep your heads up people stay safe

Quick heads up border bouncing is fixing to go the way of the dinosaur here in Thailand been here since January and a lot of us have been talking about this controversy especially with the arise of Thailand locking down people's accounts and Thai Banks and stuff so just because it's stay safe enjoy your trip but remember that Thailand is now starting to buckle down on it immigration policies it's kind of sad because it's gearing toward mainly rich and retired and believe you me I see a lot of the retired that this is enabling cyber crime such as online scams romance scams especially in the case of individuals that are more elderly and have a less probable chance of Defending themselves but by all means stay safe enjoy your time here in Thailand beautiful good food beautiful culture lots to document enjoy your time

@Edward *******

greed has no place in a world where love heals and money just corrupts

@Edward *******

money is only as real as the government upholding it. Look at the Cambodian real versus the Thai baht you see more trade with the Thai baht because the Thai baht has value if money was that much real $4.17 wouldn't be a cash stack in Cambodia I don't think that seems like it's very real at that point Monopoly money out of a board game has more value. Love is more real than money will ever be besides you can take the love to your grave when you die on your Deathbed your money is no longer yours before you even touch the dirt or the crematorium

@Edward *******

you know in a way I kind of enjoy the single life but.. companionship is always something everyone strives for am I right?

@Edward *******

just to think true love means nothing in a world ruled by little pieces of paper with faces

@Edward *******

oh yeah 100% I entirely agree the Philippines is a place where I got hurt really really bad I lost my innocence to somebody I wish I had saved myself for someone who truly loved me but I was used

@Nongnuch *******

it is literally what everyone has been talking about because Thailand is constantly changing its visa laws recently and it's just gearing itself more towards being less welcoming towards foreigners which Thailand has kind of always been like this for the longest. A lot of people are bummed out but that's because again they think because they invested so much into this country but that they didn't think it would all come Crashing Down but in reality this is not their country

For Thailand to only want the rich and elderly and it getting to the point to where it's not even guaranteed even if you have a DTV Visa having to bust your rear end to stay here no matter the cost pay or situation or Reason I'm just about ready to go to Cambodia and live there I know it's dangerous very very dangerous there but Thailand still is very dangerous just not as dangerous but if we give tourism to Cambodia eventually it'll become a much nicer place it's little bit too late for most people that are coming here because five years ago it was so much easier even for me on disability being 29 years old to have somehow edged out a loan or something to have gotten me a 5-year visa and possibly even been married by now but it's just getting so arbitrary with the visa laws it's about time we help the rest of Southeast Asia anyway there are other places that are also very beautiful and also places here in Southeast Asia that have ancient cities and artifacts and other things still buried deep in the jungles and hidden just like in South America so the opportunity for people wanting to document and things like that are almost Limitless especially with this side of the world having as much history as it has

Also be very careful here in Thailand a lot of the women here if you're not already married or mainly looking for people with certain kinds of Visas so try not to get involved with somebody who only wants you for what you have but that's just a personal opinion not really related but also definitely plenty of people here what to help you in some regards also another little personal advice it's best to stick around for a while because at first you will be a stranger to everyone but once they get to see you more casually they get more friendlier be very careful here. I've been living in Chiang Mai since January should be easier for you than for me though because I'm a younger individual I'm probably thinking about popping over to Cambodia because it's getting really really arbitrary with the immigration laws here and the kind of requirements that they're looking for just seems like they're geared toward mainly just rich and elderly almost as if they know they could take advantage of certain individuals so be very careful be wise and whatever you do it's best to back off don't meet anger with anger here it ends horribly I know kindness is a virtue no matter how bad someone else is attitude is.
