  1. If your not doing any serious driving then EVs will work ok, except if you try and re-sell your EV.....I bet if you get 25% back you will be lucky...I bet with a 7-8 year old EV your looking at 10%... For anyone who drives a lot Forget it.....EVs are a terrible idea....
  2. It does not seem like guys here are exactly rushing down to see the new Myth complex.......lol
  3. Exactlly.....No one would ever want to buy a used EV unless it was dirt cheap...China has VAST VAST EV graveyards.....Soon coming to the UK and Thailand...
  4. If they were after the Big Boys that would mean the top 1% that own 50% of Thailand.... Who most likely pay almost zero taxes.... The Big Boys dont want to see things change....They are more or less the real goverment of Thailand....And they are not going to tax their own Trillions of dollars....... The little people can pay the taxes, like the farang....
  5. Has anyone been here? Mixed reviews so far.. Beer price reports 80- 110 baht a beer Lady drink prices? Bar fine prices? Loads of blasting Music......And So-so busy reported...
  6. And they decided the way to prosperity is to tax the farangs and tax them hard...
  7. However long this tax mess is unresolved is however long there will be almost ZERO Condo sales in Thailand.....Do doubt about this.... Here is the current condo market..
  8. This whole thing is such a multi layered complex mess... I will tell you what is going to happen... They will come out and say folks this whole thing was just one big misunderstanding... What me ment was XXXXX so no extra taxes are due...
  9. Dont be surprised if on June 27th 2024 we still have no updates to this tax thing.....After the tax bomb they set off....I think they are frightened to say any thing else...
  10. The Rolling Stones have been on their last Farewll tour sInce 1980..
  11. Nothing to worry about folks.. EVs are going to save Thailand and the world....
  12. Lisa looks like a kind and simple and modest girl who would give you the shirt off her back....lol............
  13. Prime Minister Mr Smiley.....Forgot about taxing money coming into Thailand I guess...
  14. Well good.....If they will not let me leave without paying......I will not pay and just not leave....lol
  15. Yes for years on end...There has been a endless flood of press releases about how Thailand wants RICH RICH RICH very well to do expats......And the expats on a modest buget need to be shown the door.......And this tax would just hammer their precious RICH expats......lol
  16. Being treated like a 3rd class person and being taxed for the privilege I agree just does not make sense... I say give absolutly nothing to farangs and expect nothing in return.... The only thing Thailand gives farangs is 90 day reports, TM 30, No buy beer in the afternoon....Dual pricing.....And loads of bureaucracy.... Zero in zero out..... Fair is fair......
  17. Wrong....There is a very good future for Thai women who can hook up with retired frangs with a fat pension who are well on the road to their sunset years.....
  18. Every single day they let this tax uncertainty drag on it pushes invester confidence lower and lower......The damage is now almost perminet and will take a very long time to fix if ever.... And yes I am sure they already know this...
  19. Just use the words climate change to justify any other stupidity you want to throw in.. Like to save the planet all hamburgers must banned to stop climate change....
  20. So the winner was the money sent by foreigners to their Thai girlfriends or wives.......lol...............Thats hardly surprising......NGOs are pretty much worthless, at least most of them....And many Goverment projects have loads of graft.....But money to the girlfriend goes straight to the people..
  21. There is already about a 1% tax at ATMs with a 20,000 baht withdrawal.
