The problems are for people not married and supporting a Thai family, now the Egyptian military case has it the fan, and no wealthy tourists are coming in, tomorrow will be another change of direction.
I came in on a 30 day tourist visa, and went to immigration, have to do the same for 90 day, changing later to a retirement visa, I’m married and have a house, and applying in our district immigration office helps as well .
When I was in Pattaya the bar girls complained they only spent money on themselves, I reasoned they were in a there bar buying alcohol, not enough was the reply.
Wow this is getting dafter by the day, I put my money into my wife’s account, it’s used to pay all bills etc, what’s left goes into my account, not a direct transfer from UK, So having over 400,000 in my account counts for nothing.
