  1. the problem I see here is the economic scales are so different between 3rd world Thailand and the west - from minimum wage - tax thresholds - salaries etc, they are not equal not even close.

     

    If I start to pay tax in Thailand what do I get in return ?

     

    They can't even tax their own citizens as pointed out earlier in this thread, only about 5% of the working population pay income tax, that's a huge number not paying income tax.

    Well, I wasn't born yesterday, in fact I was born 65 years ago, and had a working life in my home country, and must have paid tax on my earnings.

     

    I officially moved here 14 years ago (registered at the embassy at that time) so I had no duty anymore to file tax returns since, as I didn't live or work anymore in my home country or in Thailand.

     

     

    so you have no income in the UK is that what you are saying ?

    when I select "off" for aseannow it seems to fix the issue

    only fixes when already in forum links, email url still requires a reload - the page just times out unless you stop it and reload it - it then loads instantly, so to load a page from an email link requires 3x actions, click the url in the email - click the X (stop) in the browser - then click the Refresh button, only after doing  this will the forum page open - this is 100% of the time

    yes still the same, pretty much everything requires a refresh to load a page,  always loading from email notifications - they always start with http://url6795.aseannow.com 

     

    something not quite right, when I click an email to unfollow a topic it opens up the unfollow page, and I click once and it hangs - click again and it has unfollowed it already it just didn't refresh the page from the first click, this happens 100% of the time, no other websites I visit have these issues they all work perfectly 

    it may have something to do with trackers, from MS

     

    The tracking prevention feature in Microsoft Edge protects users from online tracking by restricting the ability of trackers to access browser-based storage as well as the network.

    The tracking prevention feature is built to uphold the Microsoft Edge browser privacy promise, while also ensuring that there is no impact by default to website compatibility or the economic viability of the web.

     

    mine is set to balanced, there are 2 other options - basic and strict or of course 'OFF'
