It is incredible that so many are willing to be subservient to being taxed, hiring accountants, etc. and not granted immigrant status, no free healthcare, etc. and breathe polluted air most of the year. There are other countries you can move to who won't tax you to death and give you nothing in return.

As written before, anyone residing in Thailand for more than 180 days a year will have to file a Thai tax return reporting their world income, all thanks to Obama. Thai tax people will have knowledge of what you have and earn in most countries, every year. Dual taxation will be addressed on the Thai tax return. As for foreigners, who will not be granted immigrant status nor given health care, etc., you will be paying income tax and getting nothing in return. I am not sure if it is even legal to force a tourist who resides here more than 180 days a year to file a tax return. They can keep their country.

We are all walking account receivables. Most doctors are in it for the money no doubt therefore I wouldn't trust 99% of them. If serious, 2nd opinions are a must.

Affluence has everything to do with my responses but you can't understand my responses because you are far from affluent.

Obviously you are as poor as a church mouse. I am not.

Do you have difficulty finding your way home each day?

Investigate source of funds and crafty doesn't come into play.

You don't get that kind of wealth without cheating on your income taxes big time.

And the self appointed government keeps ridiculing the Thai people. Democracy is purely a fairy tale.

What a dumb cluck she is. A white monkey would stick around no matter what the gender of the child is.

Yet the public do absolutely nothing.

Horrific air pollution has reduced men's sperm count. Besides there are already far too many people in this world especially one specific group.

It amazes me the humiliation the Thai people keep taking. And as long as they do nothing, they will keep getting humiliated. If I stole a candy bar at 7-11, I would be doing 5 years hard time.

There would almost no tourists if they knew how toxic the air they are breathing.

It is called global emergency. Keep burning fossil fuels and the human race will follow the dinosaur fate by 2050. I recall when it was so cold at night in CM, would shake in bed even with 2 layers of clothing, socks, etc.

And get immigrant status. While you pay your taxes, you can breathe the aqi at 122 now in Chiang Mai, without the 30 baht scheme. Thai gov. will give you and me nothing.

At the very least, the politicians have to breathe the same air.

Prices are outrageous. This isn't NY.

Lately, first Pita and now Thaksin. The Thai people are like a puppet on a string and do nothing about all of this other than complain. To be in a hospital this long, he would have to be on his deathbed.

Bring in more Chinese.

Sick with covid and/or they know that ordinary Thais don't like them.

Soon you will see who will have the last laugh dinosaur. Just search the net before an unfounded comment.

You can strap your cash onto the back of a donkey and send him across into Thailand but it won't matter. Thailand has signed tax co-operating agreements with many countries that is already in effect. If you have a Singapore bank account, for example, your bank in Singapore will automatically report each year, how much money you earn in Singapore and your total assets in Singapore, and send this info to the Thai tax people. On top of that, Thailand will go cashless in the near future. More info stored on gov. computers. So for the ones now using their phone to pay for things, you are cutting your own throat.

Any funds transferred into Thailand will have to reported on a Thai tax return.

Brainless is an understatement. They are also cutting their own throat. No wonder Thais think money grows on trees in the west.
