the interesting question is more why the Thai allow possible unsafe airplanes to enter the Thai airspace. Russian airplanes are now known as that they have nor access to genuine certified parts and the needed maintenance. Allowing to have this kind of Airplanes to enter Thai airspace that is asking the gods for problems and beging them for accidents to happen.

Thailand's Schengen-Style Visa Proposal Faces Hurdles
Autonuaq replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
it can work out when the Thai accept the same identity losses as most European feel and are ready to have problems as you see in the UK, Ireland, The Netherlands, Danmark. The realization of the Schengen that did will take a lof to time and this started first with the BeNeLux, all makes that I am afraid the rest of ASEAN has moved ahead due to tourism and depending on other not work as a stable source of income. because the wealth of the Schengen area does not come from tourism at all when look closer at all. -
Thailand's Tourism Faces 'Zero-Dollar' Tour Crisis
Autonuaq replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It is truly remarkable how cleverly they flood the tourist capacity with zero-dollar tours and manage to occupy the free airplane slots with fully booked seats. Once these tours are banned, their income will only increase as people will be enticed to visit, especially when they are granted 30 or 60 days, or even a 90-day visa upon entry. Despite all these years, I still find it difficult to comprehend this way of thinking. -

Autonuaq replied to snoop1130's topic in Central Thailand News
They have to reevaluate the development of the sector, and with this look first at why they still are behind and in lack of things. Do not forget that they already have implemented they due charge price system. This does not seem to work. Lesser Chinese tourist can be a solution according to that in the media many complain about them due that they not seem to spend enough? -

Legal Age of Consent in Thailand (siam-legal.com) read this then you know more. the source of the text below is part of website Legal Age of Consent in Thailand (siam-legal.com) Understanding Age of Consent in Thailand The term ‘age of consent’ specifically refers to the minimum age at which a person is considered legally competent to provide consent for engaging in sexual acts. Individuals below this age do not possess the legal capacity to consent to sexual activities. In Thailand, the age of consent is set at 15 years old. This implies that individuals aged 14 or younger are not legally permitted to provide consent for any form of sexual activity. If an individual over the age of consent engages in a sexual act with someone below this age, it may be deemed ‘statutory rape,’ and the older person could face legal charges for violating the law. Unlike some jurisdictions, Thailand does not have a close-in-age exemption, commonly known as “Romeo and Juliet laws.” The absence of such an exemption means that even consensual sexual activity between two individuals under the age of 15 could lead to legal consequences. It’s important to understand that Thai law makes a distinction between laws regulating sexual activity, as outlined in the Penal Code, and laws governing marriage and family matters, detailed in the Civil and Commercial Code. The legal age for consenting to sexual activities is set at 15. Legal adulthood, on the other hand, is acknowledged from the age of 20 onward. While the minimum age for marriage consent is established at 17. Other Relevant Laws Beyond regulations concerning the age of consent, Thailand has specific laws targeting sexual offenses and rape cases, with penalties contingent on factors such as the victim’s age and the nature of the offense. Recent trends highlight an increase in rape cases throughout Thailand. Section 276 of the Criminal Code specifies that engaging in non-consensual sexual intercourse with an individual, through threats, violence, or exploitation of their vulnerable state, may lead to imprisonment for 4 to 20 years and a fine ranging from 80,000 to 400,000 Baht. For cases involving minors, penalties intensify. If the victim is under 15, irrespective of consent, the offender could face 20 years in prison and a fine of 80,000 to 400,000 Baht. If the victim is under 13, the imprisonment term varies from 7 to 20 years. Armed offenses against a minor may result in a life sentence. Regarding indecent acts, the procurement, seduction, or abduction of individuals for such acts may result in imprisonment for up to 10 years and a fine of up to 200,000 Baht. Offenses against those aged 15 to 18 or under 15 carry more severe penalties, including life imprisonment or death. Thailand’s legal framework also addresses issues such as child prostitution and pornography. The Child Protection Act and the Criminal Code include provisions dealing with sexual violence against children. Offenses like producing, possessing, or distributing obscene material can lead to imprisonment and hefty fines. Prostitution and the sale of sexual services are technically illegal in Thailand. Child prostitution carries even more severe consequences, emphasizing the moral and ethical implications of such actions. The intricate legal landscape underscores the importance of legal awareness to ensure compliance and protect individuals from sexual offenses and exploitation.

Frozen pension policy turns British expat's dream into a nightmare
Autonuaq replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
This is not only the case for the British, the Dutch also start to have the same issues. When you read the media more European countries seem to adopt this policy too soon or consider this. People forget the international rules that apply to the income. and how this effect the overall life. The income location is based on where your life is and is based on the 3 months out 12 months, 4 months out of 12 months, 6 months out of 12 months and 10 year time periods. you can look all easy up. -

Phuket’s ‘Russian invasion’ – they’re here to stay
Autonuaq replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
There are two ways to invade a country, by going direct into war or use the strategy as they use now. First send the people in mass and then change the culture and landscape it to their own nationalty and standerds. Then Putin will declare it is part of Russia the so called the Ukraine route. The Thai seem to sleep on the cloud of tourism that they are not aware of the reality and with this way soon will have part annexed by the Russian Duma. -
Thailand and China join forces for lunar and space research
Autonuaq replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
great initiative, and soon we are out of electronics and other western goods and service due to Thailand can be seen and an exporter of banned technology. Sadly, enough China is not the country that respect the West nor seems to respect the international agreement and borders. Thailand has better options when you look around, but sadly enough it seems that Thailand not want to learn from the Chinese submarine the ordered problem and the western diesel engine. -
safest bet for border crossing ??
Autonuaq replied to popel's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Any border is safe when you apply with the right visa for the goal that you want to stay that is in match with the genuine intentions you have. Never have had any problem to enter Thailand, to leave Thailand or any other country border. Probably you and the others have forgotten the Visa covers the goals and purpose you want to stay, and you seem to want to stay live here. Apply for the right Visa all worries gone. -
I am very sorry for your loss. There is one item everyone seems to have overlooked and that is very important. the marriage itself. to your marriage also applies the international laws. and one of them is about the choice of rights that apply to the mariage. When you stay longer the 10 years in a country the automatically by law the laws of that country also apply to the mariage if the couple did not register legally the choice of rights they want to apply to the marriage. for example, you are married in Germany move for 3 year to France then move for 11 years to the UK and then after theh UK move back to Germany and for some reason the marriage ends. everyone thinks the German law applies. But this is not the fact. Due to the stay longer the 10 years in the UK the UK law automatically did apply to the mariage. To prevent this unexpected change of law that applies on must take action and that is to register the choice of law as soon as possible but before the day one stays 10 years in the country. This also solves your problem about how to handle and when to do and expect about the house and other things as well. The ambassy can help you out. . which you aal the strength needed in these strange times you are in now.

With all respect to your view on things, you can make it very hard for yourself. Hard because the revenue office just can file and claim your world income falls in Thailand. Then it is up to you to proof otherwise. Especially with your claim as you made here you make is very easy for them or any other country. The 183 days makes it easy for a person to proof his residence and with this where his world income had to be defined. When you stay 4 months in one country that also can make it easier to point to a certain country that is where your world income falls. The way you present all, based on my firsthand experiences, when asked me, is that you make it hard for yourself. The world is global, and in the infomration age the information is floating between governments.

Thailand Extends Visa-Free Visits for Russian Tourists
Autonuaq replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Thailand and South Korea where about the same level when ASEAN started. We all seen what the development from the about same start what that did brought to South Korea and Thailand. If you cannot change then you can try to change in a different way. This is probably the reason why BRICS is chosen by Thailand when you read the news around this development. When you look into the list of countries that also explains what it is wiser to extend the Visa for Brics Members. I am just not sure if the Thai view on things on the long or short term also will fit with the other members. not sure because Thai governments come will bring changes. -
all works and is depending on where your world income is defined. when you live and stay in thailand your world income ids in Thailand. Many Dutch have seen this problem with the Social Security Organization (SVB). The SVB (government) transferred lesser pension money to Thailand as you also could have red in the Thai media. The exact definition about where you have your world income you can find when you google. Beware when you are married and stay out of the country longer than 10 years and the choice of rights that apply is not registered. After 10 years this becomes the right of your country you have stayed with your partner. All does make that you think that the UK rights apply but due to that you stayed longer than 10 years the law of the country you stay become the one that governs. There is many more to take in account when you stay longer the 90 days outside your country of residence, when you are not staying abroad for your work. it is not tax or the social security there are many things to take in account that people are not aware of. Bewise and make sure that you know which country it is that then one your world income.

Moved my son out of Thailand, at age 4 he was bullied at school and at a certain point 'start to fall often' and shortly after that was beaten up by the Thai teacher. All because he was Caucasian/Thai. The food and drinks were taken from him. Now he stays in my home country, and I have to make adjustment to work. is 8 years now and starting to become a happy child again. This was in the Bangkok area. Police and juveniele Department were involved and made it possible for him to get legally out of the country. His mother also helped him out followed later due to the needed visa for her to be able to stay long in abroad to make sure he got well again. In general the Thai children with a foreign parent they have it tougher to very worse.

Is it worth getting teeth implants at 81?
Autonuaq replied to giddyup's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
yes, it is very worthty to have the teeth implant at any age if that is recommended to do. Gums health is better they say, and they are fixed support for the other teeth. making overal better health in your mouth and with that in your body when you read the scientific study about this correlation. avoid to have teeth pulled and maintain good care of gums and theeths. -
i am not so sure about what you say is a fact. Not so sure since I could enter as an under aged without questions. Mostly it is on the appearance impression that people are stopped.

I am a non native English speaker. and since this happened to me as well i can share with you the source on which the request is based on. this request about the tax statement is based on the international agreement that tells where and in which area your world income falls. that areas/country is responsible and allowed to collect the taxes. Dual residence In some cases, two countries could consider you a tax-resident at the same time, and both could require you to pay taxes on your total worldwide income. Fortunately, many countries have double tax agreements, which usually provide rules to determine which of the two countries can treat you as a resident. If the tax treaty does not provide a solution or if your situation is particularly complicated, contact the tax authorities of one or both countries and ask them to clarify your situation. Thailand is one of them who has the double tax agreement with many countries.
