Another Trump travel ban
As long as judges refuse to allow the State Department to deport people in the country illegally, it makes no sense to let more people from these countries in. -

Australian Aged Pension
There are many people that want to be a non resident for tax purposes because it's financially beneficial for them to be a non resident, however, I would suggest most expat retirees would wish to be a resident for tax purposes to avail themselves of the tax free threshold, otherwise it's 30% tax from $0 to $135,000. This will mean doing 45 days in Australia, and meeting two of the four factor tests. Correct, however, many members of this forum thought Albo / Labor would never put the proposed changes to parliament. Labor did not bin them, and have progressed them to the consultation stage. This shows that eventually they will be put to parliament and will be passed with little to no opposition because they have the support of both Labour and Liberal. It's only a matter of time before they are passed and implemented. Members should plan how they can be a resident or non resident for tax purposes under the proposed changes, whichever one is more financially beneficial for them. -

Politics Petition Urges Thai Medical Council to Discipline Doctors in Thaksin Case
File photo for reference only A significant petition backed by over 52,000 individuals has been presented to the Medical Council of Thailand (MCT) to bolster its stance on disciplining three doctors involved in the contentious transfer of former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra to a premium hospital ward for alleged treatment. Submitted by MCT member Dr. Tul Sittisomwong, the petition has garnered support from more than 52,300 people, including medical professionals affiliated with prestigious institutions like Chulalongkorn University, Siriraj Hospital, and Ramathibodi Hospital, as well as former senators and concerned citizens. The initiative aims to fortify the MCT's resolve ahead of its pivotal meeting scheduled for June 12. This meeting is anticipated to reconsider Public Health Minister Somsak Thepsutin's recent veto against the council's May 8 resolution that sought to discipline the doctors involved. Dr. Tul emphasized the petition’s three main demands: ensuring the attendance of all MCT board members at the June 12 meeting, preventing votes of abstention, and reinforcing the original decision to discipline the doctors. The involved doctors face disciplinary actions due to their conduct implicated in exaggerating Thaksin's medical conditions, thereby justifying his prolonged stay in a premium ward at the Police General Hospital (PGH) instead of serving jail time. One doctor received a warning, while the other two had their licences suspended. Dr. Tul implored MCT board members, particularly those holding positions ex officio, to personally attend the meeting. He cautioned against political pressures that might influence the board's judgments, stressing the requirement for at least 47 out of 70 members to vote to overturn the veto effectively. "The entire nation is keeping an eye on this crucial meeting," remarked Dr. Tul, urging personal attendance from the board. He highlighted the need for transparency and accountability, particularly with national attention focused on the proceedings. Dr. Tul reaffirmed that the petition serves to uphold stringent medical standards free from political biases, countering claims of any partisanship in their campaign. The outcome of the June 12 meeting is expected to be pivotal, requiring a significant majority to maintain the disciplinary actions against the doctors and preserve the integrity of Thailand's medical practices in the public eye.
