    "The tax per can of beer will be Bt0.50 higher, and for bottles of beer it will be Bt2 .66 more. For higher-priced beer, the tax will decrease by between Bt0.99 and Bt2."

     

    As quoted above, can anyone say what is this "higher price beer"? 

    My understanding from that statement is that tax paid is being reduced for higher priced beer due to a lower tax rate, or is this a flat rate tax deduction per can/bottle??

  2. In many cases "sin taxes" are used to subsidize deficit tax coffers; in the case of Thailand this deficit in tax revenue stems from the 100,000's of unregistered shops conducting business in all areas of Thailand and paying zero tax. The tax base is largely undeveloped and unenforced in Thailand.

    Simple solution is to prop up the coffers by huge tax increases on alcohol & tobacco products.
