Visit to tax office, Koh Samui,(today)
you're missing the point. The point is you've ALWAYS been liable for taxes but never paid them or even went in to ask. Why is that? -

British Tourists Saved by Thai Police After Travel Mishap
Picture courtesy: Daily News A British tourist seeking adventure on Thailand's Koh Tao island ended up in an unexpected location—and in dire straits—before Thai police and good Samaritans came to the rescue. Jack, the British tourist, had set his sights on the sunshine and sands of Koh Tao, located in southern Thailand's Surat Thani province. But his plans went awry when he realised he had been taken to Doi Tao instead, a far-flung mountainous region. It was a case of mistaken locations with perplexing and dramatic consequences for Jack, who was left stranded by his driver. The story gained widespread attention on 13th February when Teerapat Modjod, an officer at Song Phi Nong Police Station in Suphanburi, shared Jack's ordeal on Facebook. According to Teerapat's post, Jack’s journey took a turn when his passport and a considerable sum of money were found at a petrol station. Jack, who was travelling in a truck loaded with cabbages, had initially flagged down the vehicle in Lamphun province in hopes of reaching Ratchaburi. Complications escalated when Jack, during a meal stop in Suphanburi, inadvertently misplaced his wallet. Despite the urgency, as the truck was scheduled to reach Ratchaburi by 2 a.m., local police stepped in to transport Jack back to retrieve his belongings. Teerapat posted that Jack was experiencing stress, concerned about being deceived again. Fortunately, upon returning to Suphanburi's police station, Jack was relieved to find a kind-hearted citizen had returned his wallet. The kindness extended further—officers provided an interpreter to assist in communications and arranged accommodation for him. Expressing his relief and gratitude, Jack said, "The Thai police are fantastic. At least this adventure has given me a memorable first impression of Thai hospitality—luckily chaotic yet wonderfully helpful." The story warmed hearts online, drawing numerous supportive comments championing the benevolence of Thai citizens and police: "A reliable refuge for travellers worldwide," praised one, while another commented, "Excellent work by the new officers, truly commendable." Jack's mishap turned into an experience showcasing the exceptional hospitality and generosity of the Thai people, giving him a travel tale to remember, reported Daily News. -- 2025-02-13
