Read it again slowly.  Malaysia does not hit the money that retired Expats bring into Malaysia - they extended that deal for another 10 years earlier this year. 

Yes but if I stick to the letter of the law, in order to bring money tax free into Malaysia I'd have to go and ask the "jurisdiction of origin" to first tax it. That's not what I understand as "tax free".

If some people die in your community, and you and your dog are still alive, it means there's life after death.

Income Tax (Exemption) (No. 5) Order 2022 (Amendment) Order 2024

The Income Tax (Exemption) (No. 5) Order 2022 (Amendment) Order 2024 (“amendment order”) extends the income tax exemption for all types of foreign-source income received by resident individuals (except for income from a Malaysian partnership business that is received in Malaysia from outside Malaysia) until 31 December 2036, provided that the income has been subjected to tax in the jurisdiction of origin (the exemption was previously set to end on 31 December 2026, pursuant to the Income Tax (Exemption) (No. 5) Order 2022 (P.U.(A) 234/2022)). The amendment order will come into operation on 1 January 2027.

Quote: "provided that the income has been subjected to tax in the jurisdiction of origin". I don't see this as an exemption of foreign assets from tax on world-wide income!

IMHO, until the governments of the world determine that drug sellers are equivalent to murderers and in most cases probably serial killers and can charge them as such and carry out punishment, then it will continue because of all the USERS out there/here continuing to fund these criminals.

Doing drugs is a choice.

By your same twisted logic, many things you use/buy on a regular basis can be construed to fund "criminals".

To lefties anything not demonstrably left is "far-right". What about near-right? Apparently there isn't such a thing. It has to be "far" or "extreme".

I don't consider a country that cripples its finances to give big cash hand-outs to all its citizens a "far-right" country. Neither is a country where medical expenses are free for all its citizens. Many policies in present-day Thailand reek of left-wing populism.

Covid lockdowns and covid paranoia dictatorship are one thing. Vaccines are quite another thing.

Plus, not all vaccines are equal. Yes, some vaccines - just like other medications - may eventually turn out to do as much harm as they do good. But overall vaccines belong to what's best in modern medicine. They're the reason why we have ageing populations the World over.

To the grow men out there who fight a rearguard battle against vaccines, why don't you fight for something worth it? What about fighting for your sexual rights in your own country, instead of signing them away to fly half way around the world in order to get laid in mosquito-ridden countries where you can't stomach the food? How about that for a change?

who have heavily invested in the cannabis industry

 

Tough, that's biz

No it isn't biz. It's government killing business.

I guess because it's imported. Count yourself lucky milk is needed by Thai babies as well, otherwise it would be the price of Yogurt.

If there were life after death, death wouldn't be called death.

Why "because of Trump"? Because he's the first head of State to have the guts and wisdom to confront the Red Chinese?

Could you give us a link on that blaze Master -- I looked before asking.

 

Also the confusion in some peoples minds  re Pedophilia---and -- Ephebophilia , some states in America have age of consent at 18   Washington has it at 21 in certain circumstances 

On this forum (some) seem to feel that Pedophilia is going with any one under age of consent --when consent in so many European countries Like Germany --Italy etc  etc is 14

 

For most normies these days, any man attracted to teenage girls is a pedophile. 

Some men (not many) have guts though. For instance Eivind Berge (at Evind Berge's blogg). The guy trumpeted: "Since men attracted to teenage girls are considered pedophiles, I declare myself a proud pedophile". Not bad as he's blogging with his real pic and under his real name.

Note that you can get called a pedophile just by dating a female younger than yourself.

South Africa was black Africa's success story. Now it seems to be intent on becoming a basket case too:

https://www.amazon.de/Fall-University-Cape-Town-university-ebook/dp/B09L96NJRK

Quote: "Destructive forces have been eroding the University of Cape Town, Africa’s leading university. This book tells the sad, true tale of what has been transpiring. It is a saga of lunacy, criminality, pandering, and identity politics. The mad and the bad – the deranged, deluded, the depraved – have been granted endless latitude in bullying and abusing others."

Racial identity catharsis is contraproductive enough in Western countries, it's even worse when it's fueled by a country's racial majority.

BBC = British Bullshyting Corporation. Hornet's nest of feminist, woke, third-worldist, misandric, climate-change alarmist agitprop.

This is a pity because it used to be good. In what seems so long ago I used to spend endless hours listening to Radio 4 on long waves (and to the World Service on short waves).

I recall it being 50k. Never tested it though.

Taxi apps have pick-up places outside airports in many countries these days. Outside Jakarta airport Grab is present in force alongside Gojek. They even have uniformed employees to guide you when calling your first ride. And once you have your credit card inside the app you're good to go without ever having to paw dirty banknotes. It's high time taxis in Thailand got dragged into the 21st century.

A coup would do away with all the nice things coming from democracy, like taxation of remittances, re-criminalisation of cannabis, taxation of world-wide income etc. Let's hope there will be no coup for sure.

One thing many people do is to give 5 stars, then go on to criticize.

The risk of death from the diseases which you show on your screenshot is very low THANKS TO MASS VACCINATION.

If it weren't for mass vaccination thoses diseases would decimate populations.

Why do you have to air an advertise about your STDs and STIs on a platform why can't you just talk to a doctor or a nurse or a friend.

Let me see, I think I know what you mean: why waste precious forum space to discuss vaccines and STDs, instead of starting yet another, much-needed thread about Trump?

Considering how much the US Govt intends to borrow to fund the massive tax cuts for the richest 1% I'm not surprised the dollar is headed down. Couple that with foreign nations holding back on their US investment as nobody has a clue on what Trump may do next as well as selling their US debt then the US economy is not in a good place for the foreseeable future.

This thread is about the Thai currency, not about Trump or the USD.

Pedophilia is a crime against defenseless children. What does it matter who calls out such "men"?

What does it matter who fuels pedohysteria since everyone does?

I just watched this BBC program on a UK pedophile who lived in Phuket for 25 years.

 

 

Yes, the feminazis who now run the BBC never stop agitating against men.

Presumably you do DoxyPEP? 

Yes, plus Truvada.

Note that the reason why the UK has no recommendation on Brexsero boosters maybe simply be because this use is new and there is not enough time-line data. But if protection wanes after 2 or 3 years chances are boosters will be the way to go, within reason of course, unless we want this vaccines to become like the flu vaccine that gets injected on and on.
