2 people have challenged you on this claim.

And YD has licked his sphincter in the hope of a green.

Lick and you shall receive.

Yeah, but wotz to be expected with the place largely populated by jealous jerryatr, gerriatr, geri, old people, such as Dill, Jay and Cyrille. :-)

That makes you all a bunch of amateurs . . .

The natural way to citizenship
First and foremost any child born in Thailand is automatically a Thai citizen even though the parents may be foreign.

Fantastic English language skills for a Thai.
สามารถพูดภาษาไทยได้ไหม

Yes, rhetorical.

And you're so pathetically obvious that I put the acronym in brackets just for you.

But what does it mean

Who gives a toss.



And it isn't an acronym, knobhead.

3 months in Pattaya/Jomtien '88, returned for a 4-week holiday in Dec 2k during which the germ was born, and after another couple of visits over the next months decided it's a nice enough place to retire.

Tried a couple of weeks in Pattaya, but always preferred Jomtien.

For shure.

Just chalked up 13 years living in Thailand out of the past 15 years, I don't consider myself an expat but the 18 months I spent back home for 2018/19 I felt like an alien there.

Nope, didnt read it on the internet, personal knowledge and circumstance.

No choice . . . there are exceptions. Children born in Thailand under diplomatic posting (that'd be me) - nope. Thailand doesn't have a full jus soli law.
My brother was born in Nigeria . . . same situation, also no Nigerian citizenship but I don't believe he is sad about it

Ich bin wahrlich nur ein kleines Auswärtiges Amt's Kind . . . aber immer noch Hansum Man.

But just think how much money he could have made sending out those "I am the son of the late Sonny Abacha" emails.
