One can't help noticing that in most all cases of accidents etc, the response is nearly always presented as immediate, prompt, speedily etc. Something that rarely applies to contropl of terrible riding practices occasioning death etc along with drunk/drug affected motorists. The list goes on .

Lookat the promo for TOP STORIES side by side. Pattaya brands as family friendly. Former Dutch Soldier arrested for drug making in Pattaya. Picture perfect lol.

That's the Idea lol

There goes the County if that happens

She probably believed that the love affair between Thailand & China would keep her safe?

Agreed, put him down, sorry doesn't cut it.

They want to pocket more money, open the visa gates, allow more criminal enterprise, discourage retirement , mone money money lol

Following Covid, 1500 people were surveyed and 60% said they didn't want Tourists, how did that work out, now the silly buggers are looking to get rid of all the Expats.... don't figger lol, they will be leaders of a 4th world natiopn in the not too far distant future.

I wouldn't put it past them, most figures produced come out of a local area where the sun doesn't shine.

Is that all Arrivals or does it include departures as well. Lol

The Thais should give him the one way ticket to hell. This is widely advertised and the example should be set for all that are stupid and take the risk.

It's still way ahead of the poll of 1500 taken of Thais that didn't want foreigners/tourists a few years ago, how well did that pan out

Hopefully the court will insist the Son appear as a supporting witness for his Father for the case to be heard.....but after giving evidence, he be allowed to escape back into hiding 🤣

No mention of any portability and at 80 I figure I am qualified if it existed. Aust Gov has been catching up with their game over the years and many a happy lad in Thailand with their family taking care of the mail back home received a "Front and Center " request, whoops!

Yes I'm afraid so, checked ATO on line, it wasn't easy to find, also because I rec a spitl pension with NZ, the NZ component would stop because the arrangement only existed because I lived in Australia, mutual deal.

I actually found it on line at ATO with help from my tax agent

If one has an age pension and a passport, within 24 hrs I received an email noting I had left the Country. My passport was flagged so I was done, if my passport failed to pop up as being back in country inside 6 weeks my pension was stopped untill I had satisfied them with an answer. I was stuck in Thailand for 10 weeks because Airport on Koh Samui was closed during early Covid days. Centerlink accepted my reason and noted that I was registered with Australian Embassy for a flight home.

Australian pension policy is simple in that if you do not own a residence in Australia and don't live in Aus but reside in Thailand, then your Australian pension will be taxed at 35% as un earned income. That totally killed my aspirations.

Really? Headlines etc etc when farangs do wrong but not much about what the Thai contribution is...

Some celebration, no surprises there with very little control by authorities and no breakdown between Thai / Foreigners at fault, again, no surprises...

Lotto

What about the Kiwi gunners at Long Tan, a tad one eyed with your remarks

They like the taste of Tutai ?

Great idea but for many of these drivers that would be too hard, anyway, "Management "wouldn't know how to go about it unless there was some money in it. This is a small change problem and no-one will do anything about it, look at the last election rip off and it's still not over.....
