this is a money grab by the Thai government. But. I think it will backfire.if anything. They need to lessen restrictions on legitimate long term visas for people over 50. This was not the answer. You need established people, with real money and income coming that will be good for the country. Not YouTube bloggers. Sorry. But it’s true
I agree. We don’t so much of an influx in people that prices begin to soar…..and the Thai people pay the ultimate price. It’s happening in other countries.
You want solid quality people …..not volume
And as far as border runs….im not a fan. Pay the money and get visas the right way. You’re cheating the Thai people of money. Or enjoy your 60 days and go home. And return next year to enjoy
I feel this Visa will be short lived. Thailand will hopefully be cautious on the numbers and quality of candidates they allow in. Or the very reason people want to live there will be in question. Just my opinion.
