There's also an option to deposit 400K and show 400K in income. Be aware, to the best of my knowledge, that you can only take ฿50,000 out of Thailand in one tranaction.

Political squabbles ruin so much good in the world, and limit access to many cool experiences.

I understand your point. I finally went about a year ago crossing at Poipet onward to Siem Reap. I wanted to see all SE Asian nations, and that required seperating a people from their government. I spent 8 days and I found lots of desperate people, and lots of well fed officials. There's a look over your shoulder dark side just under the surface in Cambodia, but my lowest ranked regional crossing by far is Tachileik Myanmar. The Myanmar border is currently closed.

I've used the TR60 multiple entry visa since 2018. Never any issues. I stayed 10 months COVID exempt during the Emergency Decree. Those were interesting days. Tourist Bangkok was a ghost town. I left for the village where I sit today.

Good plan. Get your TR60 Single entry or multi entry visa, in Phnom Penh at the Thai embassy. After 60 days extend for 30 days for ฿1900 - or with the multiple entry visa exit the country and return.

There's excellent private medical care, but don't expect VA care or SS reimbursement. If your disability affects mobility getting around is problematic as the cities tend to have many obstacles for wheelchair users. A good friend is a disable Vietnam combat vet. He's been shot up and slapped down with many health issues. He's lived 24 years in BKK. He's got Thai imsurance.

Update: It's a TR 60 visa. Come in visa exempt, or on an evisa. Do your S.E.A. tour then when in the country before you return to Thailand go to the Thai embassy in that country and get a TM60. After 60 days do a 30 day extension, or a border run. You're allowed 2 land border entries per calendar year. Apparently airport arrivals are less restrictive as to number of entries.

There are sea people who have lived in costal Thailand and SE Asia for centuries and don't have residency status because they don't have addresses. If you arrived in country by boat from a foreign port then the laws of the sea apply. You're basically in transit unless you've cleared customs. If the boat is Thai registered the harbor master may be a source of information.

I know of vendors selling beer at Macha Bucha. I'm at the celebration in Nong Bua Yai now.
