Thailand’s revenue department ups tax amid economic slowdown
Will B Good replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
A report from the House of Commons Library shows that the pension systems of Ireland, Denmark and the Netherlands are arguably good European comparators for the UK State Pension system. This is because like the UK, these countries also provide a flat-rate state pension based on the number of qualifying years a person amasses during their working life. Ireland Ireland pays a non-means-tested, flat-rate pension to people from the age of 66 who have made enough social insurance contributions. The full rate is available for those with 48 or more qualifying years. As of 2021, the full pension amount is €248.30 (or £214) per week. Netherlands The Netherlands follows a pension system that consists of a basic state pension that is linked to the country’s minimum wage. A single pensioner gets an amount worth up to 70% of the net minimum wage. A pensioner couple gets the equivalent to 100% of the net minimum wage (50% each). The pension amounts are revised each January and July, alongside the minimum wage itself. The pension system is also residence-based. Individuals accrue 2% of the full pension amount for every year they reside in the country between the age of 15 and the pension age (up to a maximum of 50 years). Currently, the full pension amount stands at €1,218.19 per month (around £260.84 per week) for a single person. For married or cohabiting couples, it is €832.86 per month (£178.33 per week). -

They say over 50% of fatal accidents occur within 5 miles of where you live.....if that's true I'm moving. -

Will B Good replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
Not overly concerned about 'adults' killing themselves.....but it does annoy me to see kids sat on someone's knee in the front of a car or gangs of kids in the back of a truck been driven by a complete moron who thinks he is in an F1 race. -

Japanese man dies in Bangkok hotel fall, lands on car
Will B Good replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
If a suicide obviously the balance of the mind is extremely disturbed....but I still find it staggeringly selfish to risk innocent lives by jumping into a busy street. -

Will B Good replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Well if he can convert an eight year sentence into 12 hours...she has no worries. The sad thing is the vast majority of Thais either don't care or shrug and say they are rich...it is what the rich can do.
