So, you're telling me Thailand can get its grubby, little paws on your tax sheltered investment accounts abroad??

Illegal migrants at it again.

They are just taking maximum advantage..............a national practice.

Damn right, most of these women are on 50k or more a month. That's what they would earn with a master's degree in business or banking.

Imagine how poor rural Thailand would be without farang money coming in from Pattaya, Phuket, Bangkok etc. etc. We should be given medals for our valiant efforts.

Interesting. So, basically "genuine" gifts (i.e. you didn't work for the money) between family members okay, so long as it is less than 20 million baht a year? So under the current tax laws, for example, I could send money from overseas to my daughter's bank account in Thailand as a gift and it would be tax free?

How so? Isn't a gift a gift? Why would you have to pay tax on a gift someone gave you? It isn't income right?

I am assuming gifts don't count, right? Like if someone else sends you money from abroad to Thailand, they don't expect you to pay tax, right?

185 baht a pint of Heineken now in Bangkok after 7-8pm, 😆 🤣 Or 165 baht for local pish. Like, why wouldn't you just go on holiday to Europe?

Reform!

The Japanese cucumbers they have here are great, but 100 baht for 2. They actually have flavor.

Sorry, if I offended the tomatoes. 😆 🤣 😂

Now you're complaining 🙄

Yeah, their cucumbers are crap too

Who you guys voting for? 😄

I was in a similar situation actually, except it was my EX with the gambling problem. - We moved back to civilization (Bangkok). - Broke up. She moved out. - She got a job. - Kid stays with me 6 days a week due to mother's working hours (and she's totally feckless anyway; didn't raise her first child either) - She found a new rich stupid falang boyfriend to scam. Everyone is happy. Couldn't have worked out better. I suggest to the OP: take your family away. Get out of the village. Nothing good happens when you take your woman back to her village. Either she becomes a problem or the family does. I've seen it many times.

How could you leave your kid with people like that?

It wouldn't surprise me at all if your wife is totally okay with this. Most village mothers are fine with someone else raising their kid for them. Happens all the time.

Thank you

As the title says, I am looking for good quality tomatoes. Can't seem to find properly ripe ones here

Well, I have had relatives get operations to cure cancer for free. Decent healthcare from what I saw. I bet the families were gambling.

Come on, Farage!

What are some of the things you've heard? You can take the girl out of the bar, but not the bar out of the girl. Yes, and they always <deleted> it up in the end. Mostly gambling and stupid spending.

Nah, it's no respect. They do it abroad on vacation too. Are they poor if they can go on international holidays?

Such a lovely place. Wonder if their relatives care? Why didn't their relatives get free healthcare? From what I have seen, it's good.
