VAT Rise to 10% Proposed to Fund Elderly Benefits
You seem to know nothing about the Thai Taxation. Only 10% of businesses in Thailand are registered in the VAT system. And for additional info, only 6% of the population in Thailand pays income tax.

VAT Rise to 10% Proposed to Fund Elderly Benefits
Nonsense. Senior citizen state pension would go from 600 to 3000 a month. Any business making less than 1.8 million revenue per year does not pay VAT, and that is about 90% of all small and medium businesses.

VAT Rise to 10% Proposed to Fund Elderly Benefits
Did you read the article? Old people's state benefits will go up from thb 600 to thb 3000. That is 500%, not 2%. That would be very welcome.

VAT Rise to 10% Proposed to Fund Elderly Benefits
That is not correct. Only about 10% of businesses are registered in the VAT system. About 90% of small businesses claim making less than 1.8 million revenue thus are not subject to register and do not pay VAT.

VAT Rise to 10% Proposed to Fund Elderly Benefits
It's an absolute necessity to increase the State revenues. The proposals all make sense but consider this: While 11-12 Million file for income tax, only about 4 Million or 6% of the population do pay income tax. -> more income tax should be generated. The HUGE amount of gray money. Most small en medium business companies do not pay VAT or any other tax. This is most own businesses, bars, restaurants, shops, stalls, pushcarts, smaller factories, repair shops etc... do not pay 1 baht Tax. Only about 10% are registered in the VAT system, claiming theycmake less than 1.8 million revenue a year. Imagine this coming under taxation... Thailand would need a complete overhaul of the taxation system to be fair and equitable. And of course the waste at government level through useless spending, overpaying and systematic corruption should be addressed. Imagine Thailand having en efficient government and a fair and efficient taxation system with proper collection... The country could be so much more advanced!!!

QR Codes Debut for Taxis: Track, Report & Estimate Fares
Just look at other countries to see how to manage this. Dubai has a great system. Why not copy from the best? Oh no, Thailand is not same, needs their own invention. That's why Thailand is not moving forward. And China has become the second economy in the world. They just copied from the best.

QR Codes Debut for Taxis: Track, Report & Estimate Fares
It's crazy to have 3 different QR codes for each action. Why not 1 QR code for that Taxi and then 3 options to chose from. This is so inefficient. Open to cheating, mark my words!

Anutin Axes Italian-Thai Contracts After Fatal Crane Accidents
The Death Road Rama 2 project has had over 2500 accidents (including traffic accidents due to the construction work) about 143 dead. About 1440 injuries. In the period 2018-2026. This company has a heavy disregard for safety and it's workers. Above figures exclude the Office of the Attorney General collapse and the latest railway accident, and so many more. This company should be disqualified for all government projects. My prayers and thoughts go to the families of the victims and all the deceased and injured.
