Setting up a business in Thailand

If you do want to set up a business in Thailand the first hurdle will be getting the right visa and paperwork in place. You need to enter Thailand on a Non-immigrant category "B" visa. If you are going to investigate setting up a business, you are still supposed to go with a cat B, although you can enter on a Visa Exemption, evaluate the opportunities and come back to Thailand on some future date with a cat B.

So getting a cat B visa is the first step. The paperwork and regulations for setting up a business in Thailand are best handled by a local Thai expert or a company specialising in such activities. This is sensible as you will need to be concentrating on actually running your business rather than spending time on Thai paperwork.

Health care problems in Thailand

The first shortcoming in the healthcare system in Thailand is that there is no primary healthcare system. Most doctors in Thailand are generally specialists. So, it usually becomes difficult to find good general practitioner for minor ailments. If a person is suffering from common cold and cough, a visit to the general hospital means being examined by a doctor who is specialized in one of the medical fields and the doctor may not be able to handle such a small ailment.

Golfing in Thailand

Thailand is fast becoming a preferred destination for golf holidays and there is without a doubt that this fascinating and exotic country does provide you with a unique golf experience.

Golf courses in Thailand have excellent and modern facilities along with proper infrastructure and roads. In fact, many golf enthusiasts claim that golf holidays in Thailand are much superior to those in Europe.

Bankok Thailands capital

Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, is a wonderful blend of Asian and Western cultures. You will find huge shopping centers rubbing shoulders with streetside vendors. If that is not enough, you can imbibe the Thai culture by visiting an amazing array of temples or just hanging out at the Chatuchak market. Although Bangkok is like any other metropolis, busy and polluted, do not get taken in by this. It has a lot to offer to any traveler visiting this thriving city.

Thailand has a lot to offer to any visitor besides the proverbial beaches and resorts. All you need to do is take time out to discover the real Thailand.
