The logical course of action is to take everything you have to a lawyer. You dabbled in business with no knowledge and didn’t separate friendship from business dealings. Don’t make the same mistake again mate. Take it to someone who does have knowledge, and is qualified to act and advise. Likely that’s not on this forum. Many people willing to offer advice from their point of view or personal experience. Whilst that’s helpful, you need to seek (paid) professional advice. I’ve always used Siam Legal in BKK. Probably not the cheapest, but they have always been extremely helpful to me. Good luck!

@Charlie ******

one of many!

@Giorgio *****

oh, if that was the only question, then my answer would be ‘yes’. Helpful? 🤣

My advice….. take the hit on the THB600 difference. Problem solved, stress gone, bargain!

I believe the date of departure relates to the Test & Go hotel booking, not to the whole trip

I don’t think Anutin is aligned with this. Ya couldn’t make it up

@Steve *********

yeah, whatever. Am just sharing my own level of knowledge with the guy who asked for our take on things that’s all. I don’t really need your input on that thanks. If ya can’t help people in life, don’t hinder ‘em. That’s always been my philosophy as a long term expat

@Steve *********

then let me rephrase. A contact from a government department who is close to current announcements and plans. But yes, of course there are changes. That’s the current environment. Reactive

As reported in BKK Post, yes. 5 Provinces including BKK to ‘open’ in October and November. I’ve also had that from an official contact. However, it remains to be seen what the definition of ‘open’ is. Perhaps a sandbox model with restrictions. Who knows?

@Ernst *************

probably more important to open your ears 😉
