Israeli playing the "victim" card again.

Thanks mike, agree with you completely, who else wants to make their neighbour a state of their own country (except russia,) who wants to take over greenland, the panama canal, disregard the judicial system, get rid of people before a court determination etc etc. It sounds very much like the playbook in Germany in the 1930's

In Australia we historically have imported more goods than we have sold to America. So what happened to the free trade agreement America signed up to with us? tariffs, (tax) at the numbers being set for poor SE Asian countries is counter productive in helping them develop.

Very well put, agree 100%. In Australia my travel insurance company not only will they not pay out if you do not have a current Aus. Motorcycle licence and ride in Thailand but also won't pay out if you don't have one and travel by motorcycle taxi regardless if he/she has a valid Thai licence

I agree, my point is that the poster said she was lucky they weren't pakistanis....irregardless of race ( which he brought into) rape is rape....no matter what the nationality, no mention of lucky she wasnt murdered. that of course is true, im glad she did not meet that fate.

Why? rape is rape.

Thats crazy! Anyone know why The two who assaulted this elderly couple weren't sentenced to time in jail? Their injuries look shocking.

Uyghurs have been in Xinjiang since at least the 9 century. They have not "assimilated" they were there for centuries. A uyghur friend has told me his brother doctor got 10 years jail for praying not in a government sanctioned mosque with an approved imam. That sound like assimilation?

You are correct OneMoreFarang, this 4% approval figure came directly from Trump, people could do some research on the internet which would clarify the information, the latest actual is over 50% and reported in my country as 52%. here are CNN figures reported for clarification WashingtonCNN — Fact check: Trump falsely claims Zelensky has a 4% approval rating. It’s above 50% President Donald Trump’s false declaration Tuesday that Ukraine “started” the Russian war on Ukraine generated the most attention. But Trump also made another wildly inaccurate assertion about Ukraine during those remarks to the media at Mar-a-Lago: a claim that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has a 4% approval rating.

I have Palestinian Christian friends they tell me they lived for hundreds of years in Palestine side by side with muslims as good friends and neighbours. Also arab Christians call god Allah....its the same God. Just an arabic name for the english name god.

Hello, I sent mine back from Australia 4/12/2024 and have sent Two follow up e-mails requesting that have they received my documentations. NO reply back. I know their server has received my e-mails because I requested a delivery receipt which came back as received from their server but NO read receipt. pretty poor service and I am still left wondering.

Yes you are correct, New South Wales (NSW) is in Australia and the Northern beaches are close to Sydney. And as you say probably a Britain on a working Visa in Australia.

I have just discussed this with my accountant here in Australia. She has had to do similar paperwork for the same reason for a client of hers with a bank account in Greece, it is legitimate and I have been told that i must fill in the paperwork as it is an international banking agreement. Firstly if you are NOT an American or have a green card or somehow have an affiliation with tax in any form with America disregard the forms w-9 and w-8BEN, you will see on the original e-mail it states "if applicable". Write across these two requests forms as ALL NOT APPLICABLE when you send your paperwork through as they are just for the American affiliations, just fill out the individual Self-certification. As I obviously cant go to a Thai bank being here in Australia I will have a copy of my passport certified by my Tax agent and e-mail (not Happy with that). i wont be able to send mine till 3rd December so I cant tell you till after then if there has been any setbacks. After following Aseannow members comments (and its predecessor) for the last 15+ years this is my first post.☺️
