They're attempting to trademark a common hippo?

Why the 'serious concerns' ? This just proves the security system works. According to other sources the gun was in his 'suitcase' suggesting the checked baggage. So not even a security concern really.

I heard that if they ever see a 'slingshot' they run for their lives because they know what they means.

If they stay more than 180 days or nothing is assessable is it

Why? That little hippo is one of the biggest earners out there right now

🤣

I expect they will release a new 'tax form' at some point, perhaps December, perhaps early next year. I don't expect any announcements will be forthcoming, they already did that with the two memos. They might say something about the global taxation thing but that's a completely different issue.

Absolute insanity from someone who should be fired immediately.

I think they know very well how to make this kind of vehicle, it's not the manufacturer.

I bought a Vios about 10 years ago, cost me 600k baht. Zero problems on it over the full 10 years, only did about 22,000 km total, couple of scratches, good for a few more years I think When I'm done with it I'll pop down to Toyota and order a new one then just toss the old one out like the disposable tool it is.

What nonsense, they should do what every other country has done when making new laws in the entire history of the modern world. Take a few examples which have been in place and working in other countries for centuries without major problems, combine and customise them to suit any local 'issues' and copy them.

Sometimes antibiotics are used prophylactically, so at the point of administration they're not strictly 'needed' but the prediction is that they will indeed be needed at some point very soon....

Agreed, there are much cheaper alternative crypto currencies to make quick and simple payments with, Litecoin for example. Most exchanges give you the option to deduct the fee from your account balance instead of the amount transferred. Also exchanges often charge vastly inflated transaction fees so the best way is to withdraw it all in one transaction and then spend it from an external wallet - not directly from the exchange - that is much cheaper and you have full control over fees, in fact depending on the wallet you can set your own fee which may affect how long the transaction takes to 'confirm'

Taxpayer, so yes.

Why did you post this like 8 times?

The ETA exists primarily so they can deny boarding to the aircraft to save lots of time when the people who will be denied entry arrive in Thailand. It's the same with all similar schemes, the USA started this mess and tit for tat diplomacy has seen it spread all over the world now. Lets not fool ourselves for even one minute - this entire system is designed to automate the denial of entry of people they don't want to allow into the country by stopping them from getting on flights heading to Thailand. I'm glad this doesn't appear to affect people who hold visas.

Says they're postponing automatic entry for foreigners, not the ETA Fully expect this ETA to proceed as planned and fail real badly, so badly that flights will be cancelled due to the system failing.

I got this same email from TE today. Nobody pays any tax on remitted funds for 2024 if they came from any previous year, this is just a result of the clarification memo they issued. This would be big news if it also carries over into 2025 and applies to 2024 foreign income gained whilst resident in Thailand, which I very much doubt. Suspect that cut off date at the end of 2023 is going to apply to everyone.

This is for comparison purposes, just recently I opened up a bank account with ABA in Cambodia (a few weeks ago), they wanted to see the passport and long term visa which I have. They asked me to write my address down on a piece of paper which I did - that was good enough for them. A machine then 'printed' off an ATM Visa debit card for me which I used at the separate deposit machine to deposit $1500 in cash which I had just withdrawn in the same bank from a Thai account. No problems, simple and easy. The guy said I can alter the address on the app myself to make it more accurate if I want but don't do it until the next day as their system updates overnight or something along those lines. Thailand is going to drown in red tape if it continues along this road.

It's called extortion, what should happen here is that everyone involved in the attempt to extort the old guy gets arrested This case is going to shine a very bright light on this practice now - internationally and it does not look very good for both the pharmacy and the police. Nobody gives a <deleted> about an old guy stealing some vitamins, wtf

I'm in Cambodia at the moment, everything is priced in USD and Riel and it seems to be pegged at around 4000-4100 Riel per dollar and nothing changed that I noticed, been here for a few months so far.

Also it's very possible (easy in fact) to be non resident in any country depending on where you come from and how long ago you left your country of citizenship - that's the only potential snag - where you come from originally. Some countries don't like to let go.

They don't always get what they want, remember this person is not in any way an elected official

Ok, here we go - so prior to Por 162 this change was going to apply to 2023 earnings. Then Por 162 was issued and suddenly it didn't apply to 'previous year' earnings from 2023. It was a complete 180 for 1 year - so far. That my friend is a back pedal which delays it for exactly a year. You think they can't alter that date again? Remember where we are......like I mentioned before - this is speculation.
