From your uneducated statement saying that the use of ATMs will cost more than the tax it would save. In my case I would save 30% of tax on the first million and half I might withdraw and 25% on the subsequent million. But in all likelihood I wan't save anything as I have an LTR visa. -

Can you elaborate? you reckon that using ATMs will shave off 25% or 30% off he funds withdrawn? Most of us will be in these brackets, which are never readjusted for inflation BTW. -

Sure one may also have views on whether the Golden Gate bridge stands there. But this is Aseannow after all. Yesterday someone tried to explain to be that the Bible supports Gay marriage. -

There is no debate, the XML Schema supports queries down to the level of TIN number, hence individual cases. Anyone with an iota of IT experience can see it. Of course there will be an implementation delay, which will depend on the state of the legacy IT systems of the various RDs. And the competence of their management and staff. Money can also buy the best implementing partners. I am sure there are developers at IT service providers who know the CRS Schema inside out, but they probably don't speak Thai. -

Ok , you win, I won't go through the dozens of pertinent references in the Book. But how about "the Earth is flat" ? -
How does Bali compare to Pattaya or Phuket
Ben Zioner replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
It is probably these drug laws that make Bali. and Indonesia as a whole, a much better place to take your family. Thailand has been decaying for much too long by now. I agree with Scuba, Kuta is a place for Australian young adults, Ubud, Padang Bay and many other places is for people who enjoy beauty and culture. -
Thailand on track to legalise same-sex marriage

Sure , now what other hilarious nonsense have got got on Leviticus 20:13 "If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them." -

Nonsense. "The Common Reporting Standard (CRS), developed in response to the G20 request and approved by the OECD Council on 15 July 2014, calls on jurisdictions to obtain information from their financial institutions and automatically exchange that information with other jurisdictions on an annual basis. It sets out the financial account information to be exchanged, the financial institutions required to report, the different types of accounts and taxpayers covered, as well as common due diligence procedures to be followed by financial institutions. The Standard consists of the following four key parts: - A model Competent Authority Agreement (CAA), providing the international legal framework for the automatic exchange of CRS information; - The Common Reporting Standard; - The Commentaries on the CAA and the CRS; and - The CRS XML Schema User Guide" Aggregated data hmmmh? Look at the Schema... -

I live in Thailand, where a good steak will set you back a minimum of $33 and a basic bottle of red another $33, while the waitresses are getting fatter day by day while measuring 5 feet.

Thai tourism targets expats with special deals
Ben Zioner replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Sorry guys but the Revenue Department has just decided that taking holidays abroad will save me 30% of the value of the trip in income tax. I might even bring back some spare cash to add value to my trips. Vietnam, Malaysia and Indonesia have more to offer for cheaper anyhow.
