Thailand Urged to Form ‘War Room’ in Response to US Tariffs
The victim of the VAT tax is the final consumer, rich or poor. From producers to retailers VAT is paid on the mark-up portion of the price. The more “middle men” in the marketing process, the more taxes will be paid by the final consumer. There is no social benefits in the VAT. VAT is on Goods and Services. VAT is a tax on taxes. In conclusion the VAT is the major cause of fiscal fraud (cash payment, undeclared work, barter, double-invoicing, etc…). VAT has been the cause of unemployment and social security deficit. -

Thailand’s Earthquake Damage: 34 Buildings Deemed Unsafe After National Checks
It's been much the same with my Bangkok highrise project. The building has been inspected twice and passed both times. Owners have been posting photos of their condos and most are like mine--minor cracks, wallpaper damage, etc. There are some double-floor units with 2-story living rooms and these units perhaps had more damage than some others, from the photos posted. Like you, my project will submit a claim and the condos will, hopefully, be repaired--owners have until April 12 to submit photos and owner information to the condo management. We talked to the handyman who will likely be repairing our condo and he was in a number of units looking at the work to be done. Purely un-scientific, but in our building he thought that there was slightly more damage to units in the middle of the 42-story building rather than the lower or upper floors. We are on floor 37 and I think what surprised me most was that we have huge floor to ceiling mirror panels in the dining room area and the master bedroom. I thought they would likely all be severely cracked but only one of them has a horizontal crack about 6 or 7 inches long right at the top of the panel--we might be able to hide that with molding or spouse says the crack maybe can be fixed. -

Is Thailand the Ideal Budget-Friendly Retirement Haven with World-Class Healthcare?
One of my cross cultural lessons here. Drive the car off the lot in USA and value immediately drops as a used car. Here prices relatively high but used cars keep their value longer and maintenance considerably lower. But then, I am American and so comparative costs are widely different. -

Why are Cambodian people so friendly?
It's because they're poorer. The poorer people are, the friendlier they are.
