Ambien. But I doubt you can find it in Thailand. More useful than an Uzi under some circumstances.

My Authentic Pattaya Isaan Bar Boy Experience
Ben Zioner replied to Addaamm's topic in Gay People in Thailand
Jeezuss, I feel nauseous. A bit like when I watched "The secret of Brokeback Mountain". It changed somewhat my view of the world. What I don't get is if his mother a male or a female? Can a heterosexual couple have a gay son? -
Yes, but I forgot to mention the most amazing feature: it stays cool, absolutely.

Just bought a Macbook Air M1, real bargain as they are getting phased out. Replaces the Intel Macbook predecessor. Cheaper, better, faster and just as sexy. M1/8/256. Runs Microsoft Office easily. Some people do video editing on it, but I haven't tried.

I think there are. One should explore the exact rules and practices regarding "gifts". And I draw your attention to the fact that our billionaire PM has received one of those "gifts" THB 20M I think, from his children. This was published here recently. This also leads me to think that moving to tax overseas income and not ruling against these "gifts" was indeed directed against foreigners, as we are much less likely to benefit from such donations. It could have been intentional, or not, I don't want to overestimate them.

Couldn't be more wrong. To assess someones Tax residence status Immigration need only their own data. They are paid to know how many days you spent in the country in the previous year. You are the one "theorising" here. I get to think that the idea of paying income tax causes brain freeze in some people.

Car accident, who should pay the excess?
Ben Zioner replied to sanook 1's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Maybe not the police, but in most countries when a third party is a fault the insurer will cover all damages and sue for damages. Way too complicated for Thailand. -
Thai teenage boy accidentally shoots and kills friend near Bangkok

Shoot the shooter, and possibly his friends and foes, there is no room for such manure among us. -
What Car would you buy now sub 800k Baht
Ben Zioner replied to tigerbeer's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Honda hasn't let me down. I have a CRV and a Jazz. However the latter is clearly unsuitable for local roads and I should replace it with an HRV. But the Thai RD gives us incentives to limit spending in LOS, so I might just sell it and live with the CRV only. -

Where do you live? Out here where potholes can be 8 inches deep, I'd suggest an entry level truck. -

Thai Central Bank defends new controls on cash deposits via CDMs
Ben Zioner replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Well I haven't made any cash deposit into any of my accounts for 50 years... The only reason for doing this, that I could imagine, would be some illegal activity, such as prostitution, drugs etc. -

Why on earth would you need to do that?
