To be specific, the M2H visa mate. This allows you unlimited, visa free travel to and from plus residency in Malaysia for a period of 5 years, renewable. So you could set up base in Penang or Langkawi- both just a short hop from the Thai border (Langkawi a short ferry ride), and use Visitors visas for your Thai jaunts.
Compared to the hoops they make you jump through for Permanent residency in Thailand, it's a doddle. And even on that Elite card, you've still got that 90 day reporting bullshit, plus whatever changes the capricious Thai government might choose to make at the drop of a hat.

Well, if I had a crystal ball that is the way I'd have gone. Then again, I'd have left a couple of rental apartments in Oz too, and seen my money well over double while earning a decent income. But of course I invested in Thailand, instead. Guess crystal balls are as rare as face masks in Thailand, or bog roll in Australia.

Oh yes they are- you can take that as Gospel! One trick of the trade is to enter thru' a different land border than you exited. I don't know how many expats are doing it, but it would run into thousands. Some have been carrying it on for years. Another useful trick is to have two passports. Another is the standard bank account scam, which has been going on for many years. I have no idea how many millions of baht corrupt senior Imm officials make from that scam- but they all drive nice cars, and usually own the expensive photocopy shop to be found close to large immigration offices.
Now stop boring me smeggle- this has been going on for years (well over a decade) and I am well aware of it, including people that are doing it.
