  1. Motor bike actually started to move with 2 sec on the timer and had gained speed enough to lift his feet when 1 is seen showing in the first frame. Taxi also seams to be a private car, Bolt or Grab car driver? so probably no Taxi Driver license, who knows maybe no license at all. I would give blame to both. Both drove red lights. Anyway tragic and hope he fully recover.
  2. One reason is that so many Thai does not earn enough money to come up to the cap where they start to pay taxes. The cap is 150,000 baht/year after deductions and allowances. Meaning that most people that earn less than 240,000 yearly (20,000 monthly) do not have to pay taxes.
  3. Next thing that might happen is your wife might have to pay WHT for the tenant unless you do that already, or convince the tenant to pay it them self. The correct way is that Land Lord should pay the WHT.
  4. Because most foreigners does not pay tax in Thailand. Foreigners with Work permit or Pink ID card should pay Thai Price. I know that at some places they refuse to give Thai price anyway.
  5. They might have checked out from their hotel in the morning to go to this restaurant and then check in to another hotel or continue travel to another place and might not have been able to store it somewhere.
  6. Are you talking about Apple? From where have you heard they will stop making watches?
  7. I charge my Apple watch every third day and is wearing it 24/7 except for a few charging hours, thats enough battery life for me.
  8. I got it approved today on the last day, but they count my 90 days from my application day 2nd October, not from the approval date today 12/10
  9. Applied on line to CW 10 days ago, still pending, last report day is Tomorrow.
  10. It's a Thai Man Falang, watch out it might be dangerous if swollen whole.
  11. As I understand only people working for a BOI company gets digital work permit. I asked to get one this year when my blue book ran out of pages, but I got that answer and they stamped my new WP with a Red stamp on a page ment for Change of category of work.
  12. Depending to where he donate his money. Some charities is tax deductible. Rotary Club of Bangkok foundation is one example of that.
  13. That happens when you do not adjust your driving to the weather conditions.
  14. Not the first time, it happened a few years ago also.
  15. These small accidents has always happened they are nothing new, the only thing is that they became "news worthy" after that lady lost her leg.
  16. If you want a high quality kitchen you can contact these guys at River City Bangkok, https://www.germankitchendesign.co.th
  17. IMHO. maintenance and service of any vehicle is more important than the KM. I know a guy who bought a car and drove it for 100,000 km with 0 maintenance just refill oil when oil pressure warning lamp started to blink. He topped up coolant also occasionally. Another friend bought a second hand car where the service book was missing. He took it to a self service garage and wanted to change oil. When he took away the oil plug the oil come out was more like tar than oil. Probably also never serviced.
  18. I’m not sure why anyone should answer these questions in a public forum. It’s give Google and Metas crawlers free private information. I could tell you if we meet over a beer someday and if you wanna know. But on the other hand I will not. You might put my life story in this forum as well. Also not nice to tell your friends story. He might have told you privately because he wanted to ventilate a bit. Hope he is not suicidal and figure out his story is for everyone to read.
  19. Why do they put the bikes registration plates in the article? It does not ad anything to the story other than relatives might read it and get the tragic news from a web site. Apparently it was not the cars fault also. From Thaigers website: So I believe the bikes crashed head to head beside the car.
  20. Elevators usually has a backup source of electricity. Should never stop in-between two stories if there is a power out.
  21. I guess small accidents like this happen all the time. A friend of mine lost his toe when he was a kid. He was pushing his rubber shoe forward towards next step when going up to the top of the escalator. If it wasn't for the girl that lost her leg I believe this would never have reached the news.
  22. Police must have put it on him because when he was hand cuffed he did not have a mask. Probably not to risk getting from him.
