  2. There’s one born every minute!
  3. Hello Celsius my good buddy. I know, its crap here innit. but the sun is shining and the drinks are flowing! should I ring the bell, its only 10:50am after all…
  4. She isn’t French, is she? ????
  5. You mean harry krishna? Oh i know him!
  6. As far as I know it’s a debit card that you top up. Expires in 5 years. stick two fingers up at the conventional banks!!
  7. Nice one BMT! ive just got my own digital card too.. no flies on you, eh mate ????
  8. What do you mean? 6 months in Cambodia/Laos and 6 months here sounds more than fine to me.
  9. Really? I think the opposite is true. We seem to be in a state of de-globalization at the moment..
  10. I’m not worried. I don’t really care either way. if they do try to tax me on my income earned abroad then it’s bye bye Thailand, hello sunny cambodia!
  11. And what self respecting foreigner would go through such an arduous process just to legally stay here? People will leave in droves. Thailand isn’t the only place in Asia where one can live comfortably. None of this is going to happen anyway. It’s all pure speculation. They would be fools to implement such draconian measures.
  12. I agree with you and I made that very same point when the story first broke. however, I like to speculate a bit and I’m taking it to extremes and weighing up the possible outcomes if such a policy were to be implemented.
  13. “When they see that you've been living here for pretty much the whole year, sure” he just posted that ^^^^^ so he is suggesting it!!!
  14. So the IO at the border checkpoint is going to be checking tax returns now are they? don’t you know how ridiculous that sounds?
  15. I opened mine years ago. was in and out in 10 minutes. But if my bank account becomes an issue going forward with regards to tax then it will be getting closed.
  16. A Thai bank account can be closed as quickly as it can be opened…
  17. How would they enforce it? come on, enlighten me.. tax returns at consulates abroad? You are havin a laff!
  18. Please don’t miss my point. My point is this: If tax is connecting to ones visa, ie marriage extension for example, that would be easy to enforce. The IO could just ask for proof of the funds and tax returns paid on them. But if one is on a Non O multi entry, then unless they start asking for Tax returns at consulates there would be no way to enforce it.
