Don't start that argument again, it's being done to death in another posting.

Now that's a leading question - will we ever know?

Thai generals make disastrous anything, including generals.

Spot-on, <deleted> you, I'm ok.

Not sure about it not being illegal - it was the practice by many but probably not tracked by ATO as there wasn't any communication between ATO and Centrelink - however this could very well change if the current proposal is adopted.

It's worth s F a saying anything about the reduction of corruption as absolutely nothing will change.

How sweet ????

Correct.

A mere problem, the usual poor media reporting.

Why don't you ask, Thaksin, Yinluck and the red bull kid if they hold more than one passport other than their Thai ones - and possibly thousand of others, including my wife and son.

There are saying he actually had a licence to suspend - "Amazing Thailand", wonders will never cease.

C'link also doesn't have access to your tax info, it's all based on what you tell them re assets etc.

In summary, the 183 day rule doesn't look good for expats. Interestingly, my accountant who I used to lodge my tax return each year raised the subject a few years back that if living overseas earnings generated in Aus. could be taxable - but appeared to be ignored if you kept your head down, and as I lodged a return each year using a local address we ignored it. Seems the current idea is to now toughen up and formalise it. For me, it makes no difference as I'm back in Aus, but given the opportunity to voice my opinion on it I would be dead against it for the average low income earning pensioner. My gut feeling is it will come to pass - so expats who will be affected need to be aware of it.

Hope she's worth it.
