Yes, that was my first concern, some poor worker could have been killed.

Why the concern over something that didn't happen?

He didn't!...

Out of all the fraud and overcharging of tourists that goes on thousands of times every single day around the country, this is the crime they decide to go after?

"...this is the crime they decide to go after?"

No, it was just one crime that this one team of officers went after, there are plenty of other crimes being investigated by plenty of other RTP officers.

"usufull idiots".

I'm guessing that at least one of them found you, then.

with most Thai women doing some sort of sex work at some point of their lives.

Well, the women you have come into contact with, maybe.  Your spurious, defamatory claim about Thai women is nonsense (unless you have some evidence) and contravenes the forum rules.

Aabsolutely nothing, I was just commenting on the guys skin colour of the idividual, is thiis against the law ?

"I was just commenting on the guys skin colour..."

Did I say that such a fatuous observation was illegal?

Why can't you pay? 

Because that would mean they're working without a permit.

How would you know that but what business would that be of yours, anyway?    Would you be planning on reporting him after he'd helped you out?

Few questions here for a friend of mine regarding a purchase of condo ...
Last but not least, considering there's a new foreign income tax requirement active since 01 Jan 2024, would this mean I will be also taxed in Thailand on the amount that has been remitted?

"Few questions here for a friend of mine..."

"...would this mean I will be also taxed..."

What makes you ask if you will be taxed in respect of "your friend" bringing in funds?

"Pray"?   You know, and you know that it is true.  Prove me wrong!

I just read an article in another paper and this is what it said "It is still in the discussion stage and it is not known when it might take effect."

The Bangkok Post reported that also.

At least if the country operates under “innocent until proven guilty” which I have no idea if Thailand does

Of course, Thailand does.

Although I wasn't referring specially to the OP, it is nevertheless true that he was suggesting a two week holiday and that would more  than likely be on a tourist visa!

It would, more than likely, be a visa exempt entry, not a tourist visa.

What visa? The OP hasn't mentioned having one.

Yes, I know. I am asking a general question about 6 month passport validity!

No, you specifically asked why someone would be denied boarding with a tourist visa, also.

Blacklisted at all airlines?? Sounds impossible. Could you elaborate on who did this "blacklisting" and where was it done?

This has nothing to do with the op.

If you are interested in the topic "blacklist"you can start your own thread 

You may need to wind your neck in a bit!   He can do whatever the fck he wants to do on here.

I was just told that if I have pool villas I rent out to guests for less than one month that I will need to obtain a “ Hotel license” 

The internet is a very useful thing. 

Apparently, if the building has less than four bedrooms and can occupy a maximum of 20 people, a hotel licence is exempted.    The district office is the place to apply.

Really?  That'll be useful. I'll have to speak to my local Immigration office about that, they issue Certificates of Residency for B200, that'll save a lot of hassle!

 

Give it a try, no, demand PR be issued to you on the spot, for lifetime.

 

Don't forget to share the result.

I didn't say that I'd be demanding PR, I referred to the IB issuing certificates of residency.  No need to post the result, everyone knows that it will be successful because that's one of the things they do.

Believe what you want to believe.  Not surprised to get pushback from some guy who goes by "transam".  Surely, usernames "Ferrari" and "Lamborghini" will be sending snarky replies to me soon too.

Kind of agree with him.

Me too - transam, that is.

Turbo EV - Porsche must have run out of imagination giving names for their EV...would have expected EV to have been given a name that is relevant for EV instead of something for internal combustion engine cars. Go figure

 

"Turbo" is also Porsche-speak for a body style.

i thought foam was the appropriate extinguisher for electrical fires? can we assume the fire services know the correct procedures for how to deal with an EV fire?

From the OP photo it looks as though that could be foam being used.
