Is this "Sedition"? Or some other "crime"? If so, why haven't they been charged? Seems like this will be difficult to prove. But the legal system here is fungible

Thanks. https://www.irs.gov/businesses/international-businesses/thailand-tax-treaty-documents https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-trty/thailand.pdf

This will lead to the quadrennial mad dash to negotiate a deal with FIFA, and find sponsors/funding just before kick-off. https://thethaiger.com/news/national/thailand-is-1-billion-baht-short-for-world-cup-2022-broadcasting-license

Thanks for cleaning that up. So in summary Disability and SSA transferred into Thailand do NOT qualify as "Assessible Income", and if these are the only funds remitted then there is no need for a TIN or to file a return. Is that correct?

Thanks. My guess is that, assuming a higher disability rating, the disability payment alone, or combined with SSA, will be over 120,000 per year.

Most see it as regulated - licenses required to produce and sell, age limited, no public use, several other restrictions. Probably, with regards to youths, at least as well regulated as alcohol and tobacco. Now you may wish it were more regulated - that's a government task, or that regulations were universally enforced - that's a police issue. Sorry, what is this book? One of the shortest ever written? What are the titles of Chapters 1, 2 & 3? Can we get a book report from you?

All but one "conviction", for the rice scheme, hve been struck down by the courts, so any warnings should probably be issued to the judiciary. Of course, this begs the question of why these were lodged in the first place. Somewhat ironically, it was because she was pushing an "amnesty bill" for her brother, which got the yellows lathered up to shutdown Bangkok.

Do you have to get a TIN? And file a return, even if all of the disability income is not taxed here in Thailand? How does he do this? Wire Transfer or Direct Deposit? Does he use this to qualify for the monthly income option on an extension of stay/retirement? Here is the thread mentioned... https://aseannow.com/topic/1322443-is-va-disability-compensation-not-taxed-under-new-law/ In that thread, the OP mentions that they accumulate several months of payments to an account in the U.S. and then transfer funds to Thailand.

Who is going to tell the PM that this idiotic idea is dead, and no "Weekend at Bernies" like effort will see it enacted.

A barrage? The government (PTP) made a bunch of promises, maybe eight-ish. Now the opposition is pointing out that little progress has been made on any of these. I'd hardly call this a "barrage". The PMs excuses were idiotic. Including a riff on the classic: "The dog ate my homework." He actually said the pollution problem wasn't as bad as last year, as if that's an accomplishment. Quel doofus.

This is exactly why this exemption exists in the first place.

No. It is not. No clue why a few people keep repeating this mantra. Cannabis flower, regardless of THC content, was removed from the Narcotics list on 9 June 2022. No further stipulations were added, other than those regarding licenses to grow and sell, limitations (20 YO, pregnant), public use, no sales via vending machines, and a few others. It is legal to produce (with a license), sell (with a license), possess (over 20 YO, etc.), and consume.

OK, now this is confusing. Which law? "Potentially"? Minister Chonlan seems confused.

Khaosod English · Deputy National Police Chief Pol. Gen. Surachate Hakparn, AKA "Big Joke," turned himself in at Bangkok's Tao Poon police station on Tuesday evening. The Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant after he failed to respond to three summonses for money laundering related to illegal online gambling. The questioning process took over an hour. When he was departing, Big Joke told the press that everything was now in the legal process of filing accusations. When asked about the rumour that he denied fingerprinting, Pol. Gen. Surachet replied, "I followed normal procedures." He also stated that, as long as the court has not given a verdict, he is still considered innocent.

I'm surprised the Powers-that-Be didn't burn this house down, or otherwise make it disappear. Most vestiges of the 1932 action have been erased, paved over or vanished. https://www.khaosodenglish.com/featured/2017/04/14/1932-revolution-plaque-removed/ https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN23V023/ But a good poke in the eye by Thanatorn.

But that's not what he's saying re: this thread/topic.

JK Rowling will not be arrested under new Scottish hate law, say police ‘No further action’ over posts by author and gender-critical activist despite complaints https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/apr/02/jk-rowling-will-not-be-arrested-under-new-scottish-hate-law-say-police

Wouldn't it be better to wait until she has allegedly violated this new statute before arresting here? Has any of her "speech" to date violated this new law. Why does she want to be arrested if she hasn't done anything wrong. Strange behavior from this woman based on the fact that one of the major undertones of the HP arc is discrimination within the fictional "wizarding community". She comes across as a bit of a fraud.

Trump signs executive order targeting social media companies President Donald Trump signed an executive order targeting social media companies on Thursday, days after Twitter called two of his tweets “potentially misleading.” https://edition.cnn.com/2020/05/28/politics/trump-twitter-social-media-executive-order/index.html https://www.govinfo.gov/link/cpd/executiveorder/13925 The move was widely seen by critics as retaliation against Twitter’s decision to slap fact-checking labels on the president’s tweets. The order came two days after Twitter, for the first time, added warning links to two of Trump’s tweets, inviting readers to “get the facts.”

Can't/won't happen here. No political will, no institutional will, and the public is kind of complicit, and the corruption goes to the top, tippy-top, higher. https://successfulsocieties.princeton.edu/sites/g/files/toruqf5601/files/Policy_Note_ID126.pdf

Yes. Perhaps you are confusing it with the National Enquirer? /facepalm

trump posted seventy-seven (77) times on Easter day, in what some (Two Corinthians?) are calling a "meltdown". Easter is a celebration of light over darkness. Yet, Donald Trump spent the day spewing lies, hate, and anger while likening himself to Christ. Trump posted 77 times to his social media site, attacking perceived enemies in all caps with words like EVIL, SICK, DERANGED, CORRUPT, and CROOKED. While Biden went to Mass on Saturday and spent the weekend with his children and grandchildren, Trump went full huckster, selling Bibles for $59.99 and comparing himself to Jesus — as he gears up for a criminal trial involving hush-money payments to an adult film star days before the 2016 election. https://www.inquirer.com/opinion/editorials/donald-trump-religion-easter-hate-jesus-bible-division-20240401.html

It's probably a safe option, and you have ~ three months "history". I assume MH would offer rerouting options if the CNX-KUL flight were to be canceled. Just stay on top of your rez.
