People can be disgusting and act like animals. I lost my id as well and no one retuned it. Police told me most of the time they just get tossed into the garbage or sold to criminals . Hope you find yours . Good luck
All currencies rise and fall as so their economies. The baht can’t rise much further , just like any country’s currency around the world , as this would destroy their exports as international vendors would avoid buying their once cheap products . Eventually central banks will “intervene “ and bring the exchange rate of the currency lower again. Maybe over the course of a year ..
Because in the future if you decide to actually retire in Thailand, you would have already built up an honest history with the immigration authorities. THATS the best reason. And they like that.
It’s possible it may come under scrutiny if you apply for the retirement visa in your home country . The same like with the necessity to have health insurance. But if you where to come to Thailand and apply for your visa here, then I seriously doubt anyone would care . I’m no expert by any means and just assuming my ASSUMPTION is correct . 😉
