Thailand pension for many Chinese people feel more happy and excited about things, after all, Thailand's prices relative to the domestic is still good to relax a bit, and here is a famous tourist mecca, the environment and humanities are more affinity, the following to share with you the Thailand pension pointing.
First of all, the temperature, high temperature throughout the year, more than 30 degrees is the norm, strong ultraviolet rays, to put it bluntly is the sun you simply can not stand, go out and must have a car, or really difficult.
Then again, the city construction, China's urban construction level and speed to say the second, there is no place in the world dare to say the first, that is to say, to say that the convenience of life, China is definitely the first, many places in Thailand, living facilities are not so developed, to see the doctor, shopping is a problem, sparsely populated.
Diet. Sour, sweet, spicy is the main flavor, diet, if you do not do your own cooking, it is also more difficult to get used to, in fact, the more abroad, the more you feel at home.
Consumption level. Bangkok, Thailand, consumption level similar to the domestic second tier, the overall consumption level is lower than the domestic, but expensive household goods, electronic products are not cheap, many things are domestic transported over, and their poor quality of household goods, backward style.
In fact, when it comes to old age, most people go to Chiang Mai, Phuket, also because the property is cheap, some people invested in it, and some people followed the trend.
The hometown is so beautiful, why stay in the bullet-ridden Thailand?
For the problem of national pension in Thailand, the old six would like to say that can withstand "loneliness", good health over 50 years old to go to Thailand to age well, as for the advantages and disadvantages of the old age in Thailand, the old six living in the local life of the year to give a simple analysis:
The first thing to say about the old age in Thailand is that the old age in Thailand is the most important thing, the old age in Thailand is the most important thing, the most important thing is that the new age in Thailand is the most important thing. Old six first talk about the disadvantages of Thailand pension
First, loneliness and loneliness
In an unfamiliar country, although the local people are simple and simple, but also known as the smile of the country. However, when you go to a foreign country to retire, you almost cut off all contact with the domestic, the surrounding environment have to be familiar with, old friends can only use the Internet or telephone to contact feelings, language barrier, no one to chat, children can not be around to take care of, no one in the side of the incident, the kind of loneliness and loneliness, you can bear it?
Secondly, the TV is not understandable, the network video has restrictions
In Thailand, in addition to the Chinese channel can see CCTV4, the other is basically Thai or English programs, every day to catch up with the TV series to see the elderly may not be adapted to, although it can be resolved through the network to solve the problem, but there are limitations on the copyright of the video, part of the TV series can not see, the domestic football, basketball live broadcasts, and so on, and so forth, and so on. can not, domestic soccer, basketball live also because of copyright restrictions can not watch, the elderly can easily adapt to it?
Third, there is no place to dance in the square, the park activities of the elderly less
Domestic because of the large population of middle-aged and elderly people, we like to exercise, so whether it is in the park, or the neighborhood square, a variety of activities for the elderly especially more, in Thailand because of the hot weather and habits and cultural differences, the local elderly The company's main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers," he said.
Fourth, the transportation is not convenient
Whether in the big city of Bangkok, or in the seaside of Phuket, Pattaya, or relatively quiet northern city of Chiang Mai, Thailand, the local public **** transportation is very inconvenient, Bangkok city center, although there are still buses, the city railways, subways, boats, trains, minibuses and other modes of transportation, but the elderly here are basically not exempt from the ticket, ride on the train. This side of the elderly is basically not free of charge, take the bus without reporting the name of the station, the station also did not site description, the car drove very fast, rail transportation is expensive, the line is also short, the minibus is even more mysterious, do not understand the Thai language simply can not sit, take a taxi and do not understand, so the travel is a problem. Phuket, Pattaya, Chiang Mai, needless to say, the city's public **** transportation depends on the double car, the price is not generally expensive, their own car is risky, riding a bicycle is not safe, travel is certainly not convenient at home. The bad legs and feet of friends is even more suffering!
Fifth, outdoor heat, indoor air-conditioning cold, afraid of heat, afraid of the sun, can not blow the air-conditioning friends have difficulties
Thailand, the local basic all-year-round summer, although the rainy season from May to October, but not rain not cloudy days, or as hot as ever! Go out in the daytime all sweaty, take a cab, into the mall, the air conditioning blowing and thieves cold, hot and cold difference, the body is not good for the elderly, easy to get sick.
Sixth, the diet is not accustomed to, meals are not accustomed to
Thailand local vegetables and domestic differences in the types of seasoning to do the dishes is very different, pasta dishes basically do not have the domestic shabu-shabu, lamb kebabs is even more difficult to find. Although it's not bad to bring your own spices from home and stir-fry your own food, you'll inevitably get tired of the few ingredients you have to use. Buns, noodles, and dumplings all have to be made by yourself, and flour is hard to come by. The first time you go out to eat, one or two times okay, more eat a few meals will be tired, compared to the domestic food, Thai food is relatively monotonous, as the saying goes, "the people to eat for the day," the food does not fit the appetite, you will still stay in this side of the long time?
Seventh, the doctor is a problem
While small injuries and illnesses, you can buy some medicine in the street pharmacy or small clinic, simple treatment to solve, but the language communication is a problem, the doctor is not a small matter, in the event of problems, how to do? In addition, foreigners in this side of the pension, can not enjoy the local health insurance services, you can only buy their own commercial insurance, some diseases are not in the insurance coverage, the age of the premiums are also high, in case of illness, into the hospital back to quite a lot of money, the country has a large number of disease co-ordination, medical insurance, the state of the country to manage the disease, the old age in Thailand, this is an important point that you need to consider.
Eighth, Thailand does not have **** enjoy bicycle
Local bike paths are rare, not to mention what **** enjoy bicycle, go out on foot, the weather is too hot to suffer, buy a car to ride on their own is too dangerous, the car is also the risk of losing, not the domestic **** enjoy the bicycle is full of streets, open the lock on the ride so convenient.
Ninth, the local online shopping and mobile payment is not convenient, want to buy things can only go out to the market.
Thailand online shopping has just become popular, in a relatively undeveloped logistics, online shopping is basically inconvenient, not cheap country, you will certainly miss the domestic Taobao and Jingdong. In addition, mobile payments can only be made at 7-11 convenience stores or some very few merchants, so you'll have to worry about how much baht to bring with you when you're out and about.
After looking at these possible disadvantages of aging in Thailand, I will tell you the benefits of aging in Thailand:
First, the air is good
The local Thai people basically have blue skies all year round, and the morning and evening are cooler, and the daytime is a little bit hotter. You don't have to think about the PM value when traveling, and the good weather also makes your mood comfortable and your body in a better state.
Secondly, prices are relatively cheap
In terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation, some local prices in Thailand are cheaper than at home, especially in terms of food and daily necessities. However, other daily necessities, especially electronics, because most of our domestic imports, so the price is expensive, the domestic Taobao, or wholesale commodity market a few dollars to buy small objects, this side may be more than ten dollars, or dozens of dollars.
Third, cheap rent, good facilities
In Pattaya seaside rent a 30 square meters of small apartments, sign a one-year contract, the monthly rent will be 2000 yuan to start, the small area of the large swimming pools, gymnasiums, skating a few hundred meters to the beach. Renting a villa in the suburbs of Bangkok is only RMB 3,000 to 4,000, which is comfortable for a large room, but may not be very convenient for traveling. The city center of the small apartment, the monthly rent is also four or five thousand, in fact, and the domestic first-tier city price is about the same.
Fourth, the ear is clean, not so many parents and short troubles
After coming to Thailand, there are fewer friends around, the surrounding neighbors are new people, and the social circle has changed, and do not have to listen to the same as in the country, every day, who's daughter married to a large sum of money, and who's daughter-in-law has a big fat boy, in short, there is no harm in not comparing. The government is also trying to make sure that the government will be able to provide the necessary support to the people.
Fifth, the old age visa is good
The old age visa needs to be older than 50 years of age, the local bank account in Thailand has 800,000 baht in deposits, at least three months, but also to provide the rental contract, you can directly give a one-year Thai old age visa, compared to take a tourist visa to Thailand, come to Thailand directly to do more convenient, the local agency also has a lot of agents can help you to get the money. There are many local intermediaries who can help you solve the formalities and documents, as well as deposit-related problems.
Sixth, the local tourist attractions, good scenery, low cost of travel
Like to travel to the old couple, you can revisit the sweetness and romance of the young in Thailand, hand in hand *** tour of beautiful Thailand, Phuket beach walk, Chiang Mai climbed the mountain, Bangkok shopping malls shopping, hand in hand to enjoy the world of romance belonging to the two people, or a good choice. It's still a good choice.
Seventh, more fruit, the price is not expensive
Watermelon, papaya, mango, pineapple, longan, guava, apples, strawberries, etc., basically year-round, every year in July and August is to eat mangosteen, durian, rambutan, a good season, the fruit is fresh and inexpensive, like to eat the old people of the fruit must like here.
Eighth, save clothes, cotton clothing leather jacket not
Thailand's year-round temperatures are around around 30 degrees Celsius, that is, Chiang Mai is a little colder, go out the basic pants undershirts, or short-sleeved long skirts on the right, in the clothes do not need to spend more money, there are so few enough to wear on the line.
So the suggestion of the old six is, want to come to Thailand to retire friends, you can choose to rent a room in this side, the domestic days are cold, the climate is not good, or to stay bored, you can buy a plane ticket to Thailand to spend a vacation, take a break.
Whenever you feel homesick, you can buy a plane ticket back. The first thing you need to do is to get a visa, and if you don't have a visa, you can get a tourist visa, and you can stay here for a couple of months.
