Remember this incident? Thailand's military leader has lashed out at journalists saying he would " probably just execute " those who did "not report the truth", in the latest outburst aimed at Thailand's media. " We'll probably just execute them ," Prayuth Chan-ocha said on Wednesday, when asked by ...

Perhaps the UK government should consider that we save them money as while here we pay for our own doctors visits for minor ailments and generally do not cost them anything unless or until we return. I agree in principle. However their argument would be that you are taking and spending money earned...

f you maintain a UK presence i.e. an address (your kids), bank account, electoral roll, registered at the doctors etc and possibly propertly (rented out), that would probably satisfy UK residency It's not that easy. If you maintain an address in the UK and shown on an electoral register, then you a...

You'll find all the info within www.gov.uk many who retire to warmer climes recognise that when they pass 80, the cost of healthcare may well propel them back to the NHS Returning to the UK to 'resettle' gives back all the benefits of being a resident like access to the NHS.

Thanks caller. Spot on!

There are times when you will receive a form that must be filled in confirming you are alive and proof of residence (i.e. utility bills etc).

She's half Danish/Thai born in Indonesia and a well known actress/model.

No relation to the royals as far as I can tell.

A member of this forum (sadly now deceased) moved here without telling the authorities in the UK (DWP for example).

BANGKOK — Death penalty opponents were caught by surprise by Thailand’s first execution in nine years Monday night while officials are offering no explanation. After 26-year-old Teerasak Longji was executed at Bangkok’s Bang Kwang Central Prison by lethal injection for aggravated murder, the leadin...

You beat me to it VS. I was just going to post that very incident.

I've been in HH for 16 years and we certainly get a lot less birds than we used to. A strange one, but we used to get dozens of sparrows which used to feed off a seed tray. They have vanished completely. My all time favourites are a couple of Hoopoes that come to forage daily. They are beautiful bir...

Oh, I do wish there was a 'like' button!

Well my state pension has been frozen for the last 7 years. It would be nice (very) if they compensated all those with frozen pensions and bring them up to date. Unfortunately, as expats, we are easy prey!
