I am not from Asia, I am from UK and lived in numerous other countries. I find the questionnaire lacking in trying to get to the route of retiree satisfaction or dissatisfaction.KANOKWAN wrote:I'm sorry It would be great to have valuable responses from retired expats from Asian countries, but I just focus on the mainstream retirement migration, in which, most of the migrants were the citizens of Western nations.

The original post was targeted towards western expats living in Thailand - if you don't fit that criteria then just leave it to those who do.

Re: Let the Thai society know about your retirement life in Thailand
I am a western expat living in Thailand and the questionnaire is very lacking in options to give adequate responses, that was my point.

Are you retired?
Re: Let the Thai society know about your retirement life in Thailand
Yes, the options are limited to 5-scale hierarchical answers in order to make the analysis process easier. However, in my research I also conducted the in-depth interviews to gain more insights about the topic.StevePIraq wrote:I am a western expat living in Thailand and the questionnaire is very lacking in options to give adequate responses, that was my point.
Anyway, thank you so much for pointing that out, now I just provide additional space for further explanations of the 5-scale answers under the topics of push-pull factors in home country, push-pull factors in Thailand, intervening obstacles of the retirement migration to Thailand, and the well-being in Thailand. So, please check it out
Re: Let the Thai society know about your retirement life in Thailand
Dear all,
So far, I've been receiving around 18 online responses from Hua Hin and Pranburi, so I would like to say that I am very grateful for your help. However, it just turned out that the all of the 30-40 responses collected by the immigration officers at the Hua Hin immigration office are not usable, so I would like to ask for more responses in order to represent the western retirees in Hua Hin. So, for those who haven't done the survey yet, please go to http://goo.gl/forms/nPGqLj9Xz1
Thank you very much ka

Congratulations, sorry I moved to Thailand too late to take part. And thank you for the link to the file, I'm looking at it and there a lot of statistics and comments that I find of general interest.

Congratulations! It'll take a while, but I'm actually looking forward to reading that!
