The Cyclist

If you want luxury, you gotta pay for it

Plenty of Glamping sites in the Khao Yai area where you could probably go with the dog.

Never cycled the whole route, though plenty of cycling in the park. This might help you, although its from North to South https://www.routeyou.com/en-th/route/view/2609432/cycle-route/khao-yai-national-park-bicycle-track-5

Agreed And you will notice that Mr But But But and the rest of his gang have given the post a wide berth. I expected about 2 or 3 pages of condemnation by now Just for good measure, Now that Mandelson has been named, I'm throwing Blair into the ring as the " Un-named ex PM "

Lets put that to the test. This should be good for another 12 pages of outrage Public figure - Check Named in the Epstein saga - Check Nondescript photos - Check Must be guilty as sin, let the wailing commence, 12 pages worth should be appropriate.

That is actually waht I said What part of that did you not understand ? It will have to be checked ( by some means ) to ensure that tax has been paid. Try reading and comprehending. I have never said CrS data contains data on international remittances. I have said that those remittance will have to be checked ( by some means ) to ensure that the appropriate taxes have been paid and that tax avoidance / evasion is not taking place. CRS being a tool in the fight against tax Avoidance / evasion. Or are you trying to tell me that is a load of poppycock and ithat CRS is really nothing to do with tax avoidance / evasion ?

Do you believe that CRS is all about Perhaps I should have added by way of CRS. If you dont, thats fine, no further discussion needed. If you do, then international transfers ( by some means ) will have to be checked to ensure that tax has been paid, the transfer is tax exempt, or tax has / will be paid in the Country that it has been remitted to. Or perhaps this is just crap

Popping my clogs with the assistance of 2 bottles of Malt, 6 viagra and 2 nubile females.

For the intrepid gang of 4 or 5 who are so vocal of the rights of young females. The young females of Afghanistan need your assistance right now. The Taliban have started stoning them to death again. If you are struggling for the airfare, send me a Pm and I will set up a crowdfunding page for you. Otherwise you know where the airport is, it is a desperate situation and you are needed their tomorrow at the latest. Happy packing.

Then why would the experts post something like this ? I have taken the steps to ensure that it will not affect me, apart from at worse, possibly having to get a TIN and possibly filing a tax return for no monies payable to the RD. So personally I coundn't care less what they come out with. I am just not convinced that we have anywhere near the full picture yet. That is not a fact and only my opinion, others are free to believe and do whatever they feel is benificial to their particular circumstances.

You might have a point if I had said it would. It must be great up their on your pedestal, knowing that you are waiting on sainthood, for never having put a foot wrong.

Why did you even reply. Whether a Judge decides or a Jury decides is immaterial The same process occurs, accusations made, investigation and evidence gathering, a trial by jury or a judge, a decision made.

This US you mean This UK you mean Not a great example you provided That is a lot of credible witness statements going absolutely nowhere. And guess what, some of those witness statements will also be lies.

No idea why you quoted me and then came out with the above. I never said that CrS or FATCA track international money transfers. What they ( OECD ) are interested in is ensuring that people are not avoiding tax. Which is why Thailand is updating the Tax filing form in line with the changes happening from the 01 Jan 2024, which is, to the best of my recollection all to do with the implimentation of CRS. Would it not be prudent to await confirmation of everything that is included in this amendment before making bold statements ? Just because foreign tax credit claim is mentioned does not mean that will be the only thing that will be added on the amendment. No idea how Thailand can claim it is complying with the rules of CRS if they are not checking ( at least once ) that the income remitted is tax paid at source, exempt from tax by being below certain thresholds / covered by a DTA.

What is considered due process in Countries that has evolved beyond banana republics ? A sworn deposition, on its own does not a convict make. I aleady gave you a great example of a screaming idiot who made sworn statements. So credible was he that the Police set up a whole Operation to investigate it. Op Midland and Carl Beech if you are interested. I also steered you towards miscarriages of Justice, Pardons, convictions quashed because people lied on oath. For a really update reference, try the Post Office Scandal. No doubt that the above information will be too difficult for you to compute.

Which has quadrupled the speculation, knicker twisting and trial by social media warriors. A pay off my imply guilt, it does not prove guilt. And just for the record, he is probably guilty of being a gullible <deleted>, probably did **** her, without knowing at the time that he was potentially breaking any laws. An accusation that could be levelled at hundreds of thousands of people in the public eye. From sports stars, pop stars to Politicians and even royals. It might not be ethical, it might not even be ethical, but it happens in just about every Country. Trying to whitewash that and scapegoat 1 individual is nothing short of bonkers.

This is not so..... What banana republic do you come from ?

I will leave you and the others to speculate, twist your knickers and have palpitations as to why a Criminal trial did not go ahead. https://news.sky.com/story/prince-andrew-demands-trial-by-jury-as-he-denies-all-virginia-giuffre-sex-assault-claims-12526085

And then needs backed up with some form of evidence, go to trial and a jury normally decides the innocence or guilt of the accused. The normal course of justice in most Countries that are considered civilised. Rich people, including Prince Andrew, around the world pay money on a yearly basis to make allegations go away. It's normally called extortion and blackmail. It also happens all the time in civil court proceedings. Do you spend your life being on permanent send with faux outrage at all of them or is it something reserved for Prince Andrew ?

I think we can ( politely )agree to disagree on that one I believe it will, especially for international money transfers.

Thanks Jerry. Yes, some things are indeed still unclear. Thats the badger I was looking for. What is included in the amendment will speak volumes and will dictate ( at least for some ) what avenue they will need to go down.

Well, here is another very pertinent argument for you. Before you climbed up that very high pedestal and took the time and effort to compile your very lengthy tax guide. Did you read, digest and incorporate into your tax guide, any of the following:- * OECD rules and regulations concerning CRS * OECD Compliance procedures concerning CRS * Any additional measures applicable to Thailand as an emerging economy. Not an exhaustive list by any stretch of the imagination. I think it might be one of the reasons why no further edicts have been issued by the RD. They and the experts are still pouring over the volumes of paperwork and trying to make sense of it.

Agreed. But I think that adding a whole new section is pretty unique,especially coupled with Septembers RD announcement. Mazars reported it from the original September announcement and ithe relevant part was reposted in the 200 page long thread. As I cannot recall the exact details, it might be something you want to dig out and add to your tax guide.

Yes, I agree Again, I agree and no point in speculating over what it might contain. All I can remember was that it was reported by Mazars ( I think ) and came from the original announced September announcement by the RD. It was certainly posted somewhere in the 200 page long thread.

I will let you search for the announcement of the changes, but I am pretty sure that the updates were specifically for expats. I recall saying at the time, perhaps there will be a section for non assessable income, or income covered by a DTA, Lifted direct from the RD Website ? Understood to mean assessable income prior to the 01 Jan 2024 does not mean that the same applies post 01 Jan 2024, and doesn't say assessable income. Perhaps best to let it drop and see what the new section being added to the tax return actually covers.
