    agree with you j about interviewees not looking at camera while answering questions. it looks impersonal and rude not looking at person they are talking to.

    Thumbs up 👍 Jay & Mark….what a fascinating interview
    Question for you can the Thai government take away your citizenship once you receive it?

    • @markabbottofficial
      @markabbottofficial Před rokem +2

      My understanding is that they can’t revoke it under international law IF you don’t have another citizenship. Basically, someone cannot be left stateless. However, if the original citizenship was never relinquished, then yes, they could revoke it.

    Sounds more like both of you are joining a cult there 🙂

      @thaitopfitness Před rokem +3

      Getting Thai nationality is equivalent to joining a cult? I’m not sure I’m following your logic.
