no and again bullshit. We have done just that, Indonesia, Malaysia Singapore, Lao , Cambodia, Vietnam, Phillipines, Japan, Australia. Just travel through Thailand and use the current visa exempt and move on when it comes to an end. Still a problem with Thailand. But I don’t know how you say I am the cause of all this. No other country deems it a problem even. It’s just a cash grab. Just wait til they start moving the markers on a retirement visa. A few condo buyers might find that don’t even fit the requirements for the visa to even live in said apartment.
