He didn't run anyone over so there's no need to make up nonsense scenarios that didn't happen here.

Minor incidend, scratched car, bike parked too close together so they all fall over at the same time. Irrelevant, but he's a foreigner so lets hang 'im 😁

I will purchase a new car one day and there's a good chance it won't be a Mercedes due to the irrational amount of attention they get from the local morons. There's nothing special about a Mercedes at all, they're a very ordinary car - but not here, if I were ever to crash into someone I wouldn't want pictures of myself plastered all over the media just because I happened to be driving a Mercedes instead of say a Toyota camry.

Labour government in charge then, Tony Blair and his mob.

It should be shut down for a year, that would make them learn.

Aren't these thing like rats which attack and tear your place apart if you so much as accidentally leave a window open? Or are these particular 'monkeys' well behaved? From what I've heard this is the kind of animal that gets chased away with a broom when it comes. Then it steals the broom and tries to eat it while one of the accomplices is raiding your fridge and food cupboards.

Can't you get the translation done in Thailand much cheaper? I guess it depends on the language but I'm sure there's a way.

I'm still taking the long holiday option and keeping my days below 180, I'll learn from the rest of you what happens. I'm off to Cambodia soon.

Some people get ill and require hospital treatment. This has always been the way, always will be. Nothing changes really, not in the grand scheme of things.....and for the most part, nobody cares.

Nonsense, it was caused by an arsonist. Always is.

Well everyone else from around the world is at it so who really cares? They reckon they need more people. Also it's not my problem, they have border force who can sort out the miscreants.

No they don't but perhaps they should do so.

Sow it, reap it, simple.

You don't need a 20TB SSD. There's nothing wrong with a few of these :

Yes, of course, if you need 40 TB then you can get it for a reasonable price unless your need isn't really a need. Just setup a RAID6 array with a bunch of 20+ TB drives and you have redundancy as well - that is my preferred config on a proper server and it can be done at home. I did notice the price of these high end enterprise class drives was rising months back. I doubt it's got much to do with AI.

There's your solution - withdraw it and use a local exchange. I'm sure they have Bitcoin exchanges, if you must trade the absolute sh@t they have on Binance then do so and move the Bitcoin from there assuming Binance continue to allow to use it. Remember, a 'ban' in any country will generally just cut off the banking system from sending and perhaps receiving wires from Binance but you can still normally use it. If you can't even use it then there are others.

So where the <deleted>'s my 60 day free entry? Russians, what a joke.

What are we talking here? Unlicensed Thai exchanges or the major foreign exchanges like Bitstamp, Coinbase, Crypto.com and Kraken?

I would just do a SWIFT transfer unless you already have a 'wise' account setup and ready to go.

Sounds like an attempted murder to me (so far, may turn into a murder) - highly unlikely this was some kind of random attack. Who is the German, obviously they know a lot more than has been released.

Yeah, and that guy in the picture definitely has at least 2 legs, perhaps more

Right, so we're in agreement- there is no withholding tax, not at the moment.

Yes, it's no different to any other income, they had plans to make it different but for one reason or another they all seem to have been abandoned. I think it would help to have a reduced capital gains tax for crypto but the plans for that have long gone. They're not taxing anything realised and remitted during non resident years, crypto or not.

That page is full of nonsense and years out of date information. It begins with this That's wrong as it's been discontinued as has the VAT exemption between certain dates, it was cancelled completely. It's hard to find any sources on this because people aren't talking about it much but the occasional announcement comes out that some government ministry has scrapped the VAT completely and the withholding tax. It's probably more widely reported in the Thai language media than English language which is why it's hard to find this information. There was also some talk of a 15% capital gain tax on crypto earnings, supposedly instead of income tax on the gains but that's also complete nonsense (not mentioned on that page), it's normal PIT rates all the way which can go to 35%.

Ask yourself, if anyone ever makes an accusation against you like this one but without video evidence, just eyewitnesses, would you expect to get thrown out of the country and banned for life? Lets just assume that in this case you didn't do it, but someone wanted rid of you and their friends are backing them up. It's getting very easy to have any foreigner removed from the country these days. That is dangerous, some of us have lived here for decades.
