  1. Some are Truly Hopeless. Unlike this struggling old woman seen in yesterday's news. She was supporting several family members alone with very little income and welfare. She said she can resume her trade(food vending) with this money. This topic was also covered with yesterday's ASEAN Now.
  2. Starting January 1 this year, assessable income sent from abroad by Thais or foreigners residing in Thailand for at least 180 days will be subject to personal income tax... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Did they actually Clarify how it goes after all? Do they impose levy on the remittance from outside Thailand when the money came into the Thai account? Or does the individual need to lodge tax return? By now, it only looks like tax chief is barking own wishful thinking though. Did anyone here ever get any notice from your bank after you credited own money from abroad into your account here?
  3. Pattaya Cracks Down on Illegal Immigrants to Protect World-Class Tourist Image Is it really something of tourist's concern? Now days, there are heaps of such people even in HAWAII...
  4. 1 in 3 Children Now Short-Sighted after Covid Lockdowns Study Reveals Cost of Change? During C/virus scare, schools also shut down. And pupils took online schooling with tablets.
  5. Yes, on the map, the left side is higher. And lower on the right side.
  6. Thailand aims to eradicate poverty in two years Does that mean 0.1% of the nation, privileged super rich finally determined to give up their easy-earned billions for the less fortunate of the kingdom?
  7. Report Traffic Violations for Cash Rewards... Dead or Alive?
  8. Regarding a traffic ticket here. Payment Option: Get a ticket and pay at the PD. Or Pay(cash) directly into cop's pocket:Usually concessional rate offered. e.g.500->300. I have heard quite a few people say so.
  9. Anyone in Chiang Mai? I am. And found following map. Hope this helps to evaluate the flood risk to you. Chiang Mai topographic map, elevation, terrain (topographic-map.com)
  10. The suspect... claiming to be a Bolt driver. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any conspiracy going on? Claiming Bolt can discredit those working with that app.
  11. The young girl had bite marks all over her body and her ears were deformed... Currently, the girl is in the care of the Nonthaburi Provincial Social Development and Human Security Office (M-Society). Authorities will summon the aunt to the Bang Bua Thong Police Station for questioning. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bad news and good news at the same time Which kind beast/bas**rd was that abusive aunt?
  12. Yeah. The TV station should have her face and name suppressed when they aired this news not to draw wrong sorts of attention.
  13. Looks pretty bad. Is it on the ground floor?
  14. First 90 day report - does it have to be done in person, not online? ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー Try Online only if it works now. I have tried it before, but never worked. So I do it in person Every Time. If they can't properly maintain standard service like this, how can they expect they can do better with ETA? Just doesn't make any sense.
  15. After all, nobody really knows ETA(estimated time of arrival) of the Electronic Travel Authorization. Various political manifests by the Pheu Thai govt now... Looks like an airport flight status board during the stormy weather.
  16. Salute to A Good Man who died too early. Very sad: His devotion and dedication cut his life short. Rest In Peace.
  17. Very sorry to hear that. Absolutely an awful and upsetting experience, isn't it? So their new ETA could well end up as another mess. All from the bureaucrats' Empty Pride; so obsessed with harassing foreigners in some means. They must be upset with the absence of Mutualism: Granting same/even conditions each other. The 1st world travelers can just drop in here(only valid passport and some money needed in their pockets) by air/land. But often No Vice-Versa to Thais(other than among ASEAN member states). To some high-ranking man in the department, the entry requirements gap could look like 19th century Unequal Treaty that disadvantaged them. That must be why they seek some form of Revenge. That is my presumption regarding behind-the-scenes psychology.
  18. The open gate always invites the unwanted, too.
  19. I see. New form of the tourism revenue.
  20. 13 hours ago, ikke1959 said: Unbelievable... Now the same sex marriage Law is signed --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allowing Same Sex Marriage won't cost them any money. But 10000B dole to 30 millions will. Even if it is just one-off.
  21. Pheu Thai-led populist handout scheme --------------------------------------------------------------- LOL.
  22. Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) system's debut has yet to be determined... ------------------------------------------------------------------- In other words, they are not even sure if they really do it? While they publicized it would be coming toward the end off this year(December). Better keep the current system; manual processing with the desk top PC at the immigration check point instead of complicating things. Otherwise, it only increases the stress among those in uniform at the frontline.
