The Brexit debacle has compounded the whole sorry mess.

Toll-free motorway unveiled for Songkran holidays
edwinchester replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
This road was begun in 2014 and is still not opened. It was opened for a few days over New Year then closed again. Trees are growing out of various sections of the concrete work and for anyone at the Kanchanaburi end it's turned into a bad joke. -

So in 6 months of investigation by the Dept of Employment, 306,577 foreign nationals were investigated, of which 1,689, a whole half percent, were working illegally and of those 721 were directly competing with work that should have been done by a Thai. Hardly a threat to the Thai economy is it? -

Sometimes it pays to get a loan. A while ago the car I wanted was available on 0% interest. I tried to get a loan so I could leave the lump sum in the bank earning interest.
