If you have an “O” retirement visa and then consequent extensions for several years, and you return to your birth country for a holiday, are you required to have 20k bht on re-entry to Thailand?

I am not a fooking liberal or politically correct, I was born in a small western NSW mining town over 60 years ago and have been involved with construction and mining ever since travelling the world regularly in my job.

I am simply sharing my many years of travel experience with hipo critical imbeciles like yourselves.

I now live in south east Asia and yes they do tend to get up early, like when the plane has stopped and yes the seat belt light is on, but I still say most caucasians (politically correct whiteish people) do this also.

But it's not the case that all east, middle and western asians get up while the plane is still taxiing into the gate, and yes I have seen this in asian travel but not often in 35 plus years of travelling abroad to all parts of the world. Most of them have not flown in a plane and don't fully understand the process.

Now stick that where the sun don't shine and enjoy the rest of your day.

you are joking right, it's not particular race, it's people in a particular frame of mind that do this.

And yes I am caucasian and I have done this often from Sydney to Melb and return when working, but not these days.

@Todd ********
not quite correct, but I am not going to argue over 50bht per night.

@Todd ********
agreed I have done the same myself, in there lobby, no have and booked the hotel through an app while in front of them. Just they at the front desk don't know how it works out the back. So no have. 😃😃
