He distinctly said "in most cases you can't work", and doesn't everyone know you don't (usually) come to Thailand to work? He was also up front admitting it's "a little more tricky" trying to stay permanently. But alas, it IS doable.
I went to an agent, saved me countless headaches and lots of time. Yeah, it was expensive, there's always going to be pushback from those who say "do it yourself", but I have no regrets.
Can anyone comment on the most problematic invasive species in Thailand? I'm most interested in insects, but mammals should be listed too. Oh, make the lists are in alphabetical order!
