http://www.retirementthailand.info Everything you need to know about visiting or retirement in Thailand Wed, 22 Feb 2012 07:52:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 http://www.retirementthailand.info/comment-page-1#comment-6342 JPThailand Wed, 04 Jan 2012 15:12:50 +0000 #comment-6342 I haven’t yet read this book, but I can imagine that I’ll agree with it. Thailand is a great place to live. I’ve been here for nearly five years, working, living, traveling, and enjoying every moment of it. I’ve met many Western retirees here. They claim they’ve chosen Thailand for the following reasons, among others: a high standard of living for relatively cheap; friendliness of Thai people; legal services available for marrying Thai citizens and expertise of Thailand divorce lawyers ; proximity to other interesting countries; opportunities for foreign investment; and exciting nightlife and expat communities. Thailand has big cities like Bangkok, smaller towns like Kanchanaburi, or beach towns like Pattaya to choose from. There really is something and somewhere for everyone in Thailand. I hope people continue to recognize it as a great destination despite the political turmoil and floods that have affected the country in the recent years.
