Thailand and Italy cook up a delicious deal for gastronomy and tourism

What about doing away with punitive custom duties on cheese, balsamico and olive oil then? -
Doxy-PEP - Drastically reduces risk of catching certain STIs
JackGats replied to scubascuba3's topic in Health and Medicine
The question asks "will it put ME at risk". It might still involve a higher risk for others. -

Doxocyclin not a good proposition if you stay out in the sun for long, like you would in Thailand. -
Oh dear. We're back to earned income now. These feedbacks from the LTR units will soon have covered all thinkable enforcements and their opposites.

Never mind how many new flights, seats will never be available when you want to redeem miles.

Russell Brand and why the allegations took so long to surface
JackGats replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Why accusations took so long? Because the wymmyns loved it as long as they were young and popular. After the wymmyns hit the wall and ceased to be popular, they "remembered" being raped. Same old, same old. -

Meeting emission objectives = closing our 2 last coal power plants while China connects a new one to the grid EVERY MONTH. -
From Royal decree 743: "Section 5 Income tax under Part 2 of Chapter 3 in Title 2 of the Revenue Code shall be exempted for a foreigner categorised as Wealthy Global Citizen, Wealthy Pensioner, or Workfrom-Thailand Professional who is granted a Long-Term Resident Visa under immigration law for assessable income under section 40 of the Revenue Code derived in the previous tax year from an employment, or from business carried on abroad, or from a property situated abroad, and brought into Thailand."

In that case what will happen to those hailing from a country that has a DTA with Thailand, but who have not been taxed in said country because they are de facto residents of Thailand owing to the time they spend in Thailand? I assume the mere existence of a DTA with Thailand would not get them off the hook. They would have to show taxation did occur.

In the run-up to the election I was nearly called names on this forum for suggesting we had nothing to win in any political change. Rants after rants were posted about "the will of the people". Well, there you are folks! The will of the people. The people need your money after they were promised hand-outs of cash.

Russell Brand: BBC and Channel 4 investigate allegations
JackGats replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Ridiculous sentence, of which she will lokely serve only one fifth. She should have got life without parole for what she did. -

Abuse "victims" own the world. Everyone else is either bankrupt or imprisoned or both. -
Outright theft? Alas no, because that's what most countries do these days, ie tax the world-wide income of tax residents (typically people who live in the country more than 183 days). There are few countries left that do not apply the world-wide income principle. One that I can think of is Uruguay. Some countries taxing world-wide income have special provisions that favour of foreign pensions though (Peru, Colombia, Cyprus, Portugal, ...). As regards Thailand, all will depend on what is meant by "brought into the country" and by "resident". If the provision regarding the seasoning of "savings" continues to apply, it may be business as usual for most. Reading this news I'm glad my LTR visa includes a non-tax clause for anything earnt out of Thailand. It couldn't have come at a better time.

Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust

So many people just cannot stop milking the Hitler vs Jews virtue-signalling cow. -
Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust
JackGats replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Which has been known and repeated and taken as read thousands of time by now, but is neither here nor there. The issue is the Palestinian getting vilified for stating trivialities. -
Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust
JackGats replied to Social Media's topic in World News
What did he say that was so wrong? He seems to have meant the Jews got exterminated on grounds of social stigma and not on grounds of their religion or because the Jews were hated per se for no reason. Another storm in a tea cup. It would be time for the holocaust watchdogs to stop censoring every statement that doesn't square 100% with their own phraseology. -
The difficulty of avoiding sugar in Thailand.

Thank you for the info. The topic was added sugar though. -
The difficulty of avoiding sugar in Thailand.
JackGats replied to Felton Jarvis's topic in Eastern Thailand
Again you must mean "in Thailand". Because the process of making yoghurt doesn't involve sugar. Google "yoghurt how to make". Not the same as making beer.
