Because you are no longer taxed on the money you bring in but the money you earn (regardless of if you bring it in or not). It will still be tax free to your wife of course but it will not eliminate your tax liability on the money you earned (regardless of where it was earned).

This will effectively eliminate the benefit of bring able to gift money to your thai wife tax free.

Tracking the flood of visa exempt is a noble cause. Albeit not something THA has ever been good at. Now that the sock puppet PM has ousted expect more visa related changes.

Until it's not.

Tranquility wrecked by drunken stupor.

Whomever he is, he had better learn some self control or stop driving in Thailand. Because if there is one thing that is certain, driving in Thailand is hazardous, frustrating and fraught with strange and unusual obstacles (and it ain't because of the foreign drivers).

Overbuilding on already slippery slopes will only make this problem worse.

Going for the jugular...

His fashion sense is on par with his common sense 😂

An event worthy of Thailand's reputation.

There is more to do in Thailand than just drink.

Get on with it already... Hardly a surprise. Just a classic flip-flop.

Welcome to Thailand.

Illegal activity in Pattaya? Say it isn't so 😂 😂 😂

Noise pollution

Best to stick with rice when visiting Thailand. Eating that ultra processed canned slop will kill you anyway.

Deserve has nothing to do with it. Avoidable and unnecessary, 100%. All the way around, for all involved. But when a belligerent Karen with children in tow can't think better but to lean into a verbal confrontation with a stranger, don't be shocked when there are consequences. And don't be so Pollyanna. Most of us live in the real world. You too will get your mouth slapped if you act the fool to the wrong person. Check yourself before you wreck yourself, noodle. Words to live by. Now go to bed.

Yep. Prison in Thailand sucks. As it should. And that's not news. Cautionary tale, yes. Don't do anything illegal and you have nothing to fear. The end.

Calm TF down noodle. Teachers are known to refer to their students as their children. My mistake. Don't get yourself worked up into a tizzy. You'll live longer (not that a give AF). And don't be so sure this women isn't a <deleted>. Who deserves what in this entire event is anyone's guess (based on the reporting). But don't be so sure that she couldn't have simply walked away, and indeed be the bigger person, and a role model for her own offspring. But she decided to lean into this guy by running her month and got slap to the ground instead. Honestly, I wouldn't want this women teaching my kids if that's an accurate depiction of her decision making ability.

Thai safety standards again on full display.

40m+ tourist and they still can't make money 😂 hard to believe a rule in place since 1972 is now to blame for restaurants not making enough money to please them.

Why would she be discussing a personal matter with a tailor with her students in tow. I'd love to know what she said to him. Doesn't take much to set off a Thai. Of course, if she was so inclined, she could have used this event as a learning experience for her children in terms of self control and waking away from conflict as opposed to leaning in.

He thought (as many do) that RTP are not smart or systems are not sophisticated enough to catch anyone... And given the number of foreign criminals that seemingly call Thailand home, they might not be that far off. This guy's mistake was he stole from a Thai, and that won't be forgotten quickly (as he know realizes).

I seem to recall they had always intended to keep making marijuana available for medical purposes. Not sure this doctor's opinion changes anything. Most liking, everyone is going to need a medical marijuana card to get ganja from a dispensary in the future.

He sounds charming, why would any woman want to get as far away from him as possible. (sarcasm)
