If you return to the UK you'll get the full unfrozen pension for the time you are there,same with say going to a EU country,but when returning to Thailand it'll go back to being frozen at the original rate ...if you tell them..
On this topic can you think of anyone less likely to take offence at being the butt of humour than the English? We even do it to ourselves more cruelly and hilariously than outsiders. Think of "The Windsors" (channel 4 ) lampooning the royal family and of course Spitting Image.
Perhaps we have a confidence in ourselves that transcends any lampooning and we simply laugh along with the joke ?
This is how it all starts ,a minor incident which escalated and before you know it - Nuclear Armageddon! This is just a rerun of the Bay of Pigs with a different ending 💥 😳
Well that’s exactly what happens; double the price of something and demand / sales drops significantly. Here,wine is significantly overpriced (about double the UK price for an Australian example ) so I don’t drink it (or extremely rarely) so net tax intake is nil. Reduce the taxes and I (and many others) will drink more. There’s basically a curve (like the Laffer curve) where the tax rate optimizes the total tax take. Thailand is way past the top of the curve on the downward slope so shooting itself in the foot.
Thats as maybe, but invariably involve someone driving drunk (80+%) mtorcyclists who drive without a care in the world whether drunk or sober most of the time
Poe's law strikes again..
A less ancient planet than yours,one on which the inhabitants recognize that big old displacement engines have been surpassed by smaller capacity turbos . Even the likes of Ferrari recognize that. But you stick with your Luddite "there’s no replacement for displacement " attitude. Yeehaw !
On articles concerning road deaths in Thailand there needs to be the addition of a 🥱 emoji. Anyone seen anything fundamentally different posted in the last few years..?
Way over his budget and it's still a ladder chassis and leaf spring ride comfort. I have 9 year old 3 litre manual Isuzu. It's a good all rounder but ride comfort is not their strong point
The finder was even more pleased with himself after receiving the reward of a crisp green 20 baht note. A fairytale ending for all... including the tourist board 😁
