tourism is Thailand's only source of income . Rice is 2nd. How is this good for the thousands left unable to feed their families. Suicide rates are up because people are how is this despondent over this how is this good for Thailand
I read an article yesterday where they're going to focus on you very rich the elite the 1% of the population coming to Thailand they think one of those will replace a thousand tourists or expats. leave me getting the what's called a typo non-immigration Visa or commonly referred to as a retirement Visa a lot harder. Even with one of these visas you still have to report every 90 days. And you have to maintain I think the amount is somewhere close to $28,000 a month every month in your banking account it can never dipped below that and you must show proof for that every time you report.I would recommend the Philippines because it's just like living in Thailand and almost everyone there speaks English after the Philippines I would look at laos or Vietnam. Read the Bangkok post . And Thai news to see what is happening day to day .
I just left Thailand after living here for three years on a retirement Visa my wife is in Thailand and having trouble getting back to her because of the restrictions however I would not recommend going to Thailand the government has become hostile and aggressive towards tourist and expats.
