The situation in Sudan is truly horrendous, yet another Country in turmoil
Earlier today, a flight has been dispatched from the UK to ‘bring home’ UK citizens trapped due to the fighting
And this has got me thinking, if you live in the country and you are the exact people the evacuation flight is aiming on rescuing, what happens when you land back in the Uk
Imagine you have no friends in the Uk, no family, no ties, no home, the only thing you have that may be in the Uk is a bank account and you speak the language
Where do you stay, how do you arrange this, do they drop you off at an airport (or most likely an RAF base) and having collected your luggage you walk out to the reality of being stranded, safe but in a country you no longer know?
From a desperate parent . . . Sorry to burden members here, as I'm sure everyone is dealing with their own hardships, but I'm at my wit's end and need some guidance. I'm a single dad here on Phuket, and have been for 6 years. In those six years, I was GM for a relatively successful tourism-based business (we arranged charters, team-buildings and weddings). Sadly, the consequences of the pandemic caused the business to slowly fail and my employment to be terminated 2 months ago. According to Thai labour law, I'm due severance and I attempted to negotiate a settlement rather than dragging matters through courts or arbitration. Long story - short: they are only willing to pay about 25% of what is actually owed and only when the company's assets are eventually sold. The main issue is, my savings have almost run out and I am really struggling to make ends meet. I certainly can't afford a new visa, nor is there any work available here. I can't even afford a flight back to my own country (I've contacted my embassy, with nothing but a 'sorry, you're on your own - good luck' response). I have a wonderful 12-year-old boy and I just need him to be safe and well. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions, please?
I want to know how long it's taking to get a COE (certificate of entry) for Thai business owners repatriating back from European countries? Anyone with such experience here?
Taken from another group. Someone sent an email to the Thai embassy in London. I don't know what his email said, but the Thai embassy says tourists and retirees are the same thing 😂.
