Red Bull Heiress Sues for Defamation Over Son’s Hit-and-Run Scandal
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
If he stopped and not run away, I could consider manslaughter. I understand he didn’t intend to kill that cop, but since he try to avoid responsibility this is more than manslaughter in my mind. I’m not a judge, so I’m free to name it what I feel most suitable. -
Street Vendors in Bangkok Encouraged to Sign Up for Tax Registration

That is why you need to tax fortune, not only income. Heritage tax should also be considered. -
Street Vendors in Bangkok Encouraged to Sign Up for Tax Registration
Geir Rasch replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
Business that prefer lock down before tax registration is not a sustainable business. My guess none of them would end up paying tax. A good society is a society where all people contribute by paying taxes (when income is high enough). -

I understand that. So political we are miles away for each other. I hope people with that mindset never will be influential in any country! -

Rich people will not be charged for murder in Thailand. Never the less, if you kill another person then you are a murderer. -
New Tax Rules for Expats in Thailand Spark Concern
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I know your kind exist, but I’m very happy none of you are in political power. If you exclude all the road only used by the owner, it is simply not true that over 60% of roads in Sweden are privately funded. -

When talking about country with a good welfare system, USA is one of the last countries I wold think of. Yes, Thailand is a corrupt country, but still I think everyone taking advantage of the country should also pay tax. -

When you pay tax in Thailand you get a document saying how much you have declared for tax in Thailand. You use that document for your home country to avoid double tax. -

I do not understand Thailand. It seems to be a big case that a person convicted for lied in the court become a minister, but have a drug convict as minister is no problem!? -

Thailand Set to Recriminalise Cannabis Amid Expert Outcry
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In some Scandinavian countries alcohol, exept beer, can only be bought in state-own shops, and that has been a success in all aspects. •You must be over a certain age to buy there. •The staff are professional with great knowledge about their products. •You can trust there will never be a fake product there with additional health risks. •The government decides where to establish new shops If they make pot leagal, they could du the same thing with pot. The best way to have a controlled consumption to the benefit for all. -

We all know that alcohol and tobacco are unhealthy drugs, but cannot see why two unhealthy drugs should be an argument to introduce another unhealthy drug. -
Thai Boy Rescued After Father’s Abuse Over Religion Choice
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
The case is about one bad father. There is no need to include his religion in the case. The problem is not the religion as a religion, but this person abuse of both son and religion. Such bad people you wil find in any religion. No need for islam-haters to react on this.- 86 replies

Thailand’s Aging Population Challenges Economic Growth
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The problem is not that the population scrinks, but that the aging part of the population grows. Then a bigger part of the population must be taken care of by the scrinking part of the population. To achieve that you need economic growth. -
Thaksin Shinawatra’s Influence Revives Political Cynicism in Thailand
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
You are right: we just have to accept the outcome, we do not have a say in it. But that does not exclude me from having an opinion. If it goes to far to the right we have the option to leave the country, but for most thai that is not an option, and for them it is a tragedy. -

Thaksin Advised Against Exerting Excess Behind-The-Scenes Power
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I know many thais that used to be Taksin followers, but now despice him! The way he broke all election promises the party gave just to save his own ass, is not welcomed by many. This show for everyone what kind of selfish person he really is. He does not care a bit for thai people and never has. I hope the next election will prove his downfall. -
UN General Assembly Backs Palestinian Rights Amidst Rising Tensions
Geir Rasch replied to Social Media's topic in World News
If Hamas is a terror organization, and I tend to agree on that, then what Israel is doing now i also a terror action. Can’t say Israel is a terror organization, but the PM and his government certainly are. -
Kiwi Arrested for Illegal Use of Fireworks on Thai Beach
Geir Rasch replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
I wonder is it legal when thais sending up firework and fire rackere at funerals? Is it legal when thais play load music at night? Asking because I never see any actions from the police at such occations. May be this is a law only for foreigners (read farangs)? This we can call anutin-mania among thais. -
Govt Urged to Reconsider EFTA Free Trade Agreement
Geir Rasch replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Normally I understand the need for protection, but when it comes til thai fish, which is an inferior product, Thailand need salmon and cod from EFTA. May be not for the economic, but for the sake of health!
