Might be true, but laughable nevertheless. It was good to be a [real] man in the seventies.

$hit police work.

But no worries, they got disqualified by the Spaniards after a thorough thumping.

So would be Brazil.

And how about the thing .. You know.. What we are all thinking about.. I am definitely more into cats.

Extremely broad, some 45 years ago I used to tap tap the bottom of offices girls and bed some of them. No one would do such thing anymore the potential for disaster been huge. Life sucks now...

I agree. Why not make it a non commutable 5 years sentence for the rapist, and if the accusation gets proven false, at any stage, the same sentence for the plaintiff ?

Death penalty for rape? That's innovative.

So not even booze, just some stale Apfelstrudel.

Nonsense, the Embassy would have good reasons to believe that these boys only did what they had to do protect themselves from a rabid pig.

Welcome back home young heroes.

I only quoted and underlined TRD's definition of "income from employment". I am not concerned by DTA's.

Wether a pension is protected from double taxation by a DTA or not doesn't change that it is considered as "income from employment" by TRD. But please be unpleasant if that suits you. But without me. Bye, bye.

Would be nice to check facts before posting. " Section 40 Assessable income is income of the following categories including any amount of tax paid by the payer of income or by any other person on behalf of a taxpayer. (1) Income derived from employment, whether in the form of salary, wage, per diem, bonus, bounty, gratuity, pension, house rent allowance, monetary value of rent-free residence provided by an employer, payment of debt liability of an employee made by an employer, or any money, property or benefit derived from employment.4"

Sorry to disappoint but pensions, as per TRD, are income from employment.

Agree with one exception: Nicer clothes. I don't care much about my look, probably because I don't care much about people.

That makes sense, IMHO.

THB 1000, that's the price of one bottle of wine.

Unlikely to be caused by the Gastro/Colonoscopy, two weeks after the procedure. I had it many times and the first thing I do after paying my bill is to get a big lunch. Don't like fasting 18 hours. Probably you took to "improve your gut bacteria". Nothing beats a healthy steak with a good red wine.

Joan of Arc syndrome ?

No they couldn't tax at source every ATM withdrawals. But in the context of an audit they can now get all the relevant information from your overseas bank, and hit you hard if the find out that you have lied, or concealed information. ATM withdrawals are remittances, as stated by TRD.

But touchy on that matter, anyway..

But what makes you tick? Please enlighten me. Is Thailand just some kind of a limbo between two trips home?

But what's the point? Watching your bank balance going up?
