I am talking about people genuinely here as a short term tourist on a genuine holiday, being allowed to do some work (answer emails, take calls etc). I am not talking about people trying to cheat the system by living here using tourist visas/visa exemption and working remotely.

@John *********

it is clear that you are able to work remotely if you are in Thailand as a tourist, as long as the employer it outside Thai, which I think is the essence of her question.

@Jordan ******

stop making things up. That’s not an official position and you know it

you're really funny! you said 'they prefer USD' without any qualification about neighbouring countries or anything else you have since tried to defend it with. If you cannot see what is misleading about that then I cannot help you and you certainly shouldn't be trying to help other people. have a great day

@Guillermo ********

firstly your original comment has no qualification - it is a broad sweeping comment which is not true. Secondly you don't know where there OP is applying because they do not say - so you are making an assumption as well as not qualifying. Now you are saying 'the majority apply in neighbour countries' to try and justify your non qualified statement. You are making that up too as there is no data to show that. Either way it is still nonsense - if I had applied in a neighbouring country I would still show in GBP and I WOULD NOT have to explain why it is not in USD. It's ok to admit you made a mistake with your statement - you will feel better for it.

@Guillermo ********

stop making up total nonsense. They do not prefer USD. If I showed USD when I applied in London it would probably create a problem for me as it would raise questions in their minds. This group is supposed to help people not confuse them! 🙄🤷🏻‍♂️

@Dany *******

what a ridiculous and arrogant thing to say. Not everyone knew. He was trying to be helpful (I bet you have even read his comment) and there is never any need to be rude or have a go at people. Sad and pathetic you support trolls - you must be one.

@Brad *******

I am 100% for people having the choice. People have their reasons for doing so, many expressed in this thread. An answer or some advice doesn't change because someone is called Nick or Brad, and there are as many BS or troll comments from named people as anonymous people in all the Thai groups. In fact the worse ones are from named people as its a badge of honour for them to be a d**k and turn these groups into cesspits. You said you have reasons for blocking your profile and that's your business, you don't have to explain to anyone, but it is no different to most of the good people that post anonymously with genuine questions.

@Brad *******

I love how people are against anonymous comments but then lock their profiles like you! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Michael *********

you should leave the group then
