Christopher ********

The dollar is strong not going down. Brics has been a dream for how long ? The USA is one of the largest purchasers of consumer goods from China, if they can’t buy the whole thing will fall down bc there aren’t 300 million people with similar incomes lining up to replace them tomorrow. Maybe in 30 years but not tomorrow.

What is the best visa option for staying in Thailand long-term without facing immigration issues?

Christopher ********

They can deny you if you have a record of entering too many times and trying to live there even if you get the visa.

So if your intent isn’t tourism you need to find a visa that lets you stay long term like a language school
