Ask your particular questions in AI. Very quick clear answers from chatgpt Gemini etc. Do back and forth "what if x?"...or "what about y?" ..very helpful. My own advice is don't admit to INCOME being remitted. Maintain it's money from your LIFE SAVINGS easy peasy lemon squeezy!

Stick to the script "it's my life savings and I have no income " ...let them audit etc.. if it gets heated or u have doubts pack up and leave! They can't prove it ain't life savings. And it's gonna consume a lot of effort to dig deeper in foreign bank accounts around the world. They hope for the low hanging fruit of the suckers who worry and wanna pay up front.

yes. Good answer. They'll learn the hard way!

likewise why would she choose some so culturally different when thai 70 year old men are plentiful ?

Self harm...masochism...lambs to the slaughter

Predators and their prey. Sadly you're only the prey.

Philippines has had similar for last 3 years evolved from covid register of,arrivals for tracking. It's a shambles and effectively a database of garbage information. For Philippines if the hotel you've booked isn't recognised your forced to instead insert name of another hotel it does recognise or risk being denied boarding. The creation of your account and login also stressful. Multiple one time SMS passcodes and "invalid email address" against the email address they just emailed you thr codes. I gave up after 40 minutes of fxckin around with it. Really the last thing you need in the countdown to international travel.

No official announcement on visa period reduction. Since was first suggested there's been a serious earthquake which is detrimental to increasing tourism. In addition Thailand now has 25% tariff on vehicles to USA and 10% on everything else. Maybe now's not ideal time to discourage tourists.

@Bob ********

yes but use a bit of logic. 50k is 6 months wages in parts of SE,Asia. Either they're all lottery winners or they are not from low income families. Thailand doesn't set it's fee for Ed Visa to all average ASEAN citizens to study in Thailand. In fact they're clearly unwelcome.

@Bob ********

maybe they're from wealthy elite families because 50k baht per annum is a large chunk of a salary in most of SE Asia？
