same in Singapore and Hongkong, but in most other countries they ignore it or don't release such info (China).

right, much ado about nothing. Most of my conflicts were about their way of driving, either too fast or too slow or going the wrong way.

I had one tenant who didn't pay rental in time, i told him to pay within 2 weeks or electricity and water will be cut off. He was not able to pay, so he vacated the house and I deducted all costs fm the 2 months deposit. In Thailand you have no problem to get rid of tenants not following the contract terms, in Europe it would be much more difficult.

right, in general they are about the ugliest woman in Asia.

at least a fair fist fight and not with any weapons or 10 Thai fighting against 1 Farang.

I went recently to Bangkok Hospital Pattaya and asked for LASIK prices, but the ladies at the reception told me that LASIK will not last long and I might have to undergo another Laser procedure after 2 years, which is bull<deleted>. They are trying to sell Super Sight Surgery for THB 260k and don't even bother to tell you the price for LASIK.

right, that's what criminal minds do automatically.

so if an attractive lady wears a mini skirt its partly her fault when she gets raped?

because they are cowards

Option 1 for me

if then they should ask the Thai Girlfriend, since when does the sender have to pay tax for a gift? Anyway no questions asked by the banks or TRD.

I am not a tax resident in Thailand, so why should they audit me?

of course its considered a gift if you remit fm your overseas account to your girlfriends account in TH, I have done it several times and no questions asked. Sending it fm your oversea account to her overseas account is nonsense, first of all not all TH girlfriends have overseas accounts and then you have to clarify how such transfers are handled by tax authorities overseas.

Thai's get also stopped, but police does not take any action about Thais driving over red lights, which is even more dangerous and more common than drinking and driving.

my friend got caught drunk by the police, paid a fine of THB 10.000,-- and was allowed to carry on driving. When he asked for a receipt the policemen replied that there is no more control on his way home. TIT
