You put a big effort into this post..... But if these numbers are correct.. Taxable Income per year(Baht) Tax rate 0 – 150,000 Exempt 150,000 – 300,000 5% 300,000 – 500,000 10% 500,000 – 750,000 15% 750,000 – 1,000,000 20% 1,000,000 – 2,000,000 25% 2,000,000 – 4,000,000 30% Over 4,000,000 35% This is a stinking joke..... Just renting a very modest 17,000 baht a month condo would already put you at 204,000 baht and thats before you spend so much as one dollar on any thing else in a entire year......God forbid if you needed to eat or use electricity or visit a hospital etc... Even a Thai worker only making 500 baht a day.......500 X 365= 182,500 baht a year... So is every Thai and Farang not homeless and living on the beach going to be paying this tax? Yea right when pigs fly... If they want this tax to really work they must give out at least a 2-3 million baht exemption every year to everybody.....So they will only be catching big fish...

I hate condoms.....Condoms are evil....

And No we are not closing down to pot shops.....They will be free to sell all the 0.2% weed they want......

The Full Report Has Now Been Published But its Confidential so we can not tell you whats in it......

Great its about time they get on with destroying the small remaining niceness of Jomtien beach...

So Sir or Mam how much money did you lose....Well I had 64,000 baht in a plastic bag that I dropped... Ok next person... I also had 64,000 baht in a plastic bag I dropped... Ok next person I also.....had...........lol

Of course it has never been full.....It fulfilled its main goal which was the old parks destruction......Whether the parking works or not is irreverent..

I do not have a problem with putting 4 and 5 year olds in the electric chair but anyone over the age of 55 should not the charged with a crime, because then I would be protected....

I think your dates are off by a decade.... Up until 2013 the beach looked like this....

No No No No....And another No.......This whole plan is DOA......It will last 1-2-3 days The End...

No it was a concerned citizen....lol..........Who always show up at just the right time..

I agree 100%.... Take a good look at these lights sometime they are made out of VERY VERY heavy duty steel or some other steel like alloy...And the lights are also BIG TIME heavy duty.... I would guess that the total cost for EACH ONE of these could very well cost 2.1 million........So I think closer to 21 million for 10...Plus 50% for you know who.....So lets just call it 30 million...

That roofing is what saved him.....But I dont even want to think about what the roofing did to him....

Folks LET ME TELL YOU WHAT WILL HAPPEN.. AT 4.01 AM the first night this plan will crash and burn... Not a single person will be tested or helped home..... And by 4.02 AM this plan will be 100% forgotten...

The extra fat and lard on ALL construction around here is massive..... Look who is doing MOST of the work....Cambodians and Burmese working very cheaply I am sure.... Huge paydays for a select few..... Also Half-azz shoddy workmanship= Job security...

All of these posts are only repeating the same old boring stuff that has already been talked about a million times in the long tax thread...

tax and taxing people who are also avoiding tax. Right, you are......I am sure they will start with the 1% top richest in Thailand and make sure they pay every baht owed....

One thing that is very very clear...... The huge and massive amount of work and cost that would be required to monitor and enforce this tax plan would be vastly more than the pittance they could extract from expat retirees on a pension..... Very well of ex-pats would just stay for 179 days and wire in a few million dollars then fly off to wherever.. Then come back in the new year and pay ZERO taxes....

So let us see who is exempt (so Far) About 80-90% of Thais that dont file taxes.. The very very very rich Thais you can be sure they will exempt themselves... Anyone who stays less than 179 days.....They can import 100 million baht a year with no problem.... Anyone with a LTR visa with a strong possibility for the elite too.. Anyone who has money from before 2024 Anyone at least from the USA who lives off social security....This can not be taxed... Any Country with a double taxation agreement at least for the no double tax part..... Anyone who imports under a certain amount....

I would say the number of laughs the subs have created makes them worth every baht.....And a sub without an engine creates even more laughter so an engineless sub has the most value....

By the time all the many soon-to-be exclusions are figured in I think it will make more sense just to trash the whole thing.....

Here is what immigration will give you for paying taxes

Old savings saved over many decades I think is impossible to PROVE...When it was earned...

Since weed became legal I have seen/smelled a grand total of ONE person on the street smoking weed.... Weed really is not all that popular legal or not.....Most weed shops I see are mostly empty most of the time....

Yea, maybe the old....My big toe is itchy.....Well, here you go Sir a oz Thai stick should cure that......Thanks, Dr.Feelgood you are the best......
