i see, you have found a gem!

any reason not to retire in phillipines? seems less hassles like TM30, 90 DAY REPORT, and annual visa extension or work restriction?

@Elisa *********

thonglor is the prime or best location in bangkok, maybe you bought some decades ago?

@Elisa *********

may i know where are the locations?

@Chris **********

yes, he is kind hearted and wish to do something good for society and people

why concern air pollution?

558 thai stat

better live away from high risk flood areas, and too near BTS as it maybe quite noisy, and live in high floors and away from highways to avoid noise and air pollution, less than one month airbnb is illegal

you probably know all the

pros including cheaper

housing, friendly people,

and culture. Air quality,

floods, public road safety

and pavement conditions

need improvement (just

look up internet for details).

Air quality can be checked

real time downloading

some apps. For long

stayers, there are some

reporting requirements

such as 90days report on

residence, which is not very

convenient. Starting next

year, new tax on remitted

income earned abroad.

@Ruth ******

but bangkok and chiangmai airquality recent days seems reverse situation, bangkok smog seems more frequent and serious
