He is a devil who isn´t even trying to hide it.

I would like to agree that the worldwide debt-driven economic system is rapidly approaching its end. But that has nothing to do with tariffs or trade imbalances. But anyways, back to my morning coffee. Way more important and pleasurable than talking about #47.

I hope so, too!

Earlier this evening, I was kind of surprised to see lots of people still outside various condos and even hotels with their suitcases, obviously afraid of going back in and fearing another earthquake.

Hardly shook? Wtf do you live in BKK?

Yes, this is what might happen in the future. I agree. As an additional "data point": I just chatted with a friend of mine and we briefly touched on the topic of the looming deadline. Much to my surprise he said that he went to his local TRD office last week, asking how to file a tax return. When they learnt that he hadn´t brought in any money over the course of 2024, they told him "not to worry" and that he cannot/doesn´t need to file a tax return. As the money he is going to bring into the country in the future is from money he inherited a few years ago, they also told him that he won't need to file anything in the years ahead unless the source of the transferred money changes from inheritance to taxable income sources. Well, if and when there is a status link between TRD and Immigration in the future then this practice certainly would have to change. I guess we will find out in the years ahead......

So, do I understand it correctly that: - if you did not transfer any money into Thailand in 2024, you do not have to file a tax return (just in order to comply with "the deadline" at the end of this month or early April if done online) - if you transferred money to TH in 2024, but this was not assessable/taxable income earned in 2024, you still do not have to file. In the latter case, if you do not file a tax return and the tax office at some point in the future asks you to prove what the money you transferred in 2024 was, asking for proof of when it was earned, inherited or whatever, is this "Please show us" approach by the RD the "worst case" that could happen if we do not file right now?

Question: I recently got a new passport and did my first 90 days report with it at CW. Next one is due in April. When I logged into https://tm47.immigration.go.th only the reports on my old passport number were shown. Looking up for any entry on the new passport did bring up nothing. So what is the correct way forward? As I could not find the option to update my passport number on that website, do I have to create a new account with a new email address and start using that new account from April onwards? After having all the stamps etc successfully transferred from the old to the new passport I had hoped the 90 days report system would link those 2 numbers as well but that does not seem to be the case. Or do I just log in with my existing account details and then type in all the details (new passport number, nationality, address etc etc) when submitting the new application in April and that´s it? I´d appreciate if someone enlightened me about the "correct" way forward. Thank you!

Given you posted that question here quite a while ago, have you found out the answer to the question? I am about to pick up my new passport and your question is also something I was wondering about. Anyone who can answer the question? Thank you!

Hi, Probably a typical dummie question but here we go: I´ve got 2 Dell monitors U2717D and U2722DE and a M2Pro Mac mini. I understand that I can connect each monitor individually with the Mac. As a matter of fact, this is how I do it at the moment (1x USB-C to USB-C and 1x USB-C to DP). Now, my question is: is it possible to connect the 2717 to the 2722 and by doing so freeing up a Thunderbolt port on the Mac mini? If possible are there any advantages/disadvantages of this setup compared to having both monitors directly connected to the Mac? What cable would I need to connect the 2722 as my main monitor with the older 2717? I am not very good with this so I hope it is not too stupid a question to ask. DUS

I only added the Platinum package (cable TV) to my account last week. So I would have thought it was still available. Mind you, I assume True are actively trying to push everyone to their streaming service TrueID/TrueNow. If you have cable TV at your (new) home and you want to get Gold/Plat or whatever package, I would get in touch with them again. I used their True iService App to contact their support team and they added the package on the spot. Only issue is, it sometimes takes ages to get hold of one of their few English speaking reps. 🙂

The "Gold", Platinum and other packages are still available for those who can watch through True´s cable service. They also have that "Inno Hybrid+" box which is a 2in1 in that it combines a cable receiver and the TrueID box. Still a pi$$ poor box performance wise. 🙂

Pretty sure it is a change of cable TV to TrueID/TrueNow that you/the technician did when swapping to the new box. But nothing that can be fixed manually if you still subscribe to their cable TV service

If you've got the Hybrid+ box or what it is called and you still have it connected to coax cable then you need to change the "input source" on the box.
