Get an offshore bank account to deposit your working salary into, transfer into Thailand living expenses, I used to do 10,000USD per transfer. No tax obligations anywhere. Did this for 25 years of my residence in Thailand with no blow back Standard Bank Offshore is inexpensive to set up -
I was raised on raw milk as a child. We milked our own cows and the milk went into stainless steel milk machines and then into the fridge, in rural northern Alberta, Canada First time I tasted store bought milk I thought it tasted like water No adverse affects. I would not seek out or buy raw milk from outside sources as you can never tell their handling of the milk. And most definitely not in Thailand where the cold chain is problematic, among other things Up to you as they say, but I wouldn't

Ukraine denies involvement in Nord Stream pipelines blast
kwonitoy replied to onthedarkside's topic in The War in Ukraine
Nordstream 2 was hydro tested and ready for service, It was denied operating permits by Demark before the war happened. It might have had a very small load on the line, about 30 psi is what I have seen used elsewhere, but nowhere near operating pressure. The pictures of the sea bubbling is from Nordstream 1 which was at operating pressure, about 1000psi As to who blew them up, I wonder if we'll ever get the truth -

Getting 500kg of high explosive is not possible without strong state back up. Go to any hard rock mining site and they have literally tons of explosive on hand -
I want to die peacefully in my sleep like my grandfather, not yelling and screaming like his passengers. Old Joke.

Long read that's very light on facts and heavy on subjective writing What is his focus on 4 pipelines? being destroyed. I worked on both lines, Nordstream 1 is 48" diameter as is Nordstream 2, what other 2 pipelines were involved? Nordstream 1 has been in production for years Nordstream 2 was mechanically complete but not in service due to permitting issues

If I don't have a reentry permit ...
kwonitoy replied to Chicksaw's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Why not go to your local IO office and get a multiple entry stamp? Costs about 3000 baht and then you don't have to worry about forgetting. I always got one with my retirement renewal for work reasons -
Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital
kwonitoy replied to Chris.B's topic in The War in Ukraine
Looks like they are dipping into the gold reserves because of sanctions. special operations are expensive it seems. The Russian Finance Ministry sold 3.6 tonnes of gold from the Russian National Wealth Fund in January 2023; this was the first such sale to cover the country’s federal budget deficit. https://news.yahoo.com/russia-sold-gold-national-wealth-090859424.html Slava Ukraine -

Tiny radioactive capsule goes missing in Western Australia

19 becquerels you could put in your pocket 19 Giga becquerels you shouldn't ( Sarcasm intended) There is an inverse square formula for exposure activity If your getting say 1000 MR at 6m distance if you cut the distance in half you double the rate 3.0M = 2000 MR/HR 1.5M = 4000MR/HR .75M = 8000MR/HR .375M = 16000MR/HR If it's .50 curie, 5 meters is completely safe. But when I do it I have a survey meter (GM detector) with me and I know where the source is. That's the crux of it. They don't know where it is.
