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.

Well I got that covered, unless they repeal RD.743 a few minutes before my money turns up.

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.

Well, TI's computer can easily establish who was tax resident or not for any given year. So you wouldn't be asked anything.

No he emigrated to Australia.

Well I have made a transfer of 100 000 USD that should be there by first business day 2024 (tomorrow). How could one think it was earned this year? I'll show them my FCD book, and my USB statement and remittance advice. I hope I am not the only one to have done so.

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.

Of course, one has to chose carefully, and preferably before sixty, and stick to it. I have been in my plan for 32 years, so I doubt they could find any preexisting condition. Not even Gonorrhea. Otherwise, I am 71 and totally uninsurable.

Maybe it was hypertension, preexisting condition, at the time of start of coverage? Which would make total sense in the case of stroke.

My, dad was a figure to look up to, that's all I needed. I was only a drafted bureaucrat during Yom Kippur, and so on...

Shoot the shooter, and possibly his friends and foes, there is no room for such manure among us.

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.

Two of those. Your guests will love them.

The Chinaman.

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?

I am in awe. But why do you want to do this to yourself?

Sidegra (Viagra) 4x100mg costs 200 Baht in a good pharmacy. What is the price of the "street" product?

Amazing isn't?

Did you reboot yourself or did you call the service guy to do it?

Schadenfreude for president: USA 2024.

Yeah.. The Met alone could easily fill a week too.

What fascinates me is all those wokeidiots coming to Thailand for their holidays.

Not so, on September 18 I have been given a convincing incentive to take all my holidays overseas.
