  1. Given that an earthquake is classed an "act of God" and the building that collapsed was to have been the future National Audit Office, could it be that God smote it down due to disapproval of the incoming Revenue Department proposals?
  2. Dr Pufinjai jumped out at me too. Not your typical นามสกุล 🤪
  3. In one aspect he seems like a sort of evolution of that pick-up artist culture that was popular 20 years ago - he even seems to have taken on the style and appearance of Neil Strauss who wrote The Game. Not sure if the whole approach has aged so well, but the book was an interesting and entertaining read and the author was quite smart and likeable. Tate is somewhat more obnoxious and morally dubious, and has thrown politics and other things into the mix, but a lot of It's quite similar.

  5. Nothing but positive vibes since your recent purchase...
  6. Exactly what happens in a man's brain during SEX
  7. "Is Captain Rum joining us for this bring-a-sample party or is he going to sit this one out?" "Oh no, he's been swigging his for ages. He says he likes it. Actually, come to think of it, he started before the water ran out." Blackadder 2, Potato

  9. This seems like the definition of an uphill struggle.

  14. That extra £3244 buys an additional £1000 per year. You'd break even on the investment in about 3 years, maybe 5 or 6 times higher than what you'd get from an open market annuity.
  15. Unlikely in most cases, given that this is recognised as an extremely rare event and not something most people would expect in their current lifetime. Even the understanding of Nibbana, like the snuffing out of a flame is very hard to comprehend, it is not a personal achievement. Most would be drawn to Buddhism within their own culture by absorption and tradition, and in many respects the more mundane aspects of Buddhism function not dissimilarly to old fashioned Christianity with it's petitionary prayer, a wishing for better fortune. At deeper levels (and where outsiders might be brought into the fold), it is as others have mentioned suffering. If Nibbana is the ultimate exit ramp within Buddhism, perhaps the entry point lies in the Four Noble Truths.
  16. It was discussed here: https://aseannow.com/topic/1351759-thailand-may-ease-overseas-income-tax-rules-amid-global-changes/
  17. The newer PE visa is still a 5 year visa sticker but with one year entry stamp. For the longer 20 year memberships this sticker is replaced at each 5 year anniversary.
  18. Thanks. I wonder what will happen in practice - there was a recent poll saying that 58% of expats intend not to file at the present time. Also comments from the Finance Minister last month suggesting that the rules were under review. Three weeks until the deadline and things are still as clear as mud.
  19. If this income falls within the 0% tax range is it necessary to file?
  20. Maybe when sales flop he'll introduce the Bronze option like they did here 🫠

  22. Is this a new document published by the RD? Looks pretty scant on details. If 2024 remittances fall into the 0% band (<150000฿) is there a requirement to file? And what is the penalty for filing late when things are made clearer?
  23. Because of those damn thermites I had to replace my entire wood flooring with an expensive tile job. #ปลวก
