Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
Nationwide/Virgin Money. They asked for my UK Tax Identifier Number. What use is my NI number to a bank? Or if they did require the NI, it is on three of my pension remittances to my A/C. -

Insurance firms to compensate school bus blaze victims
I'm surprised that the insurance companies are going to pay considering that the bus wasn't legally fit for the road, however I am pleased that they are going to pay . It's small money for the loss off innocent children. -

Corruption scandal hits the brakes: Thailand’s bus industry whistleblows dirty dealings
The problem is that the whole system is rotten to the core. We are focussing here on bus inspections at the DLT for obvious reasons, but how many other "certifications" do they carry out? Driver licensing is one, and it seems to be known that many people buy their licenses. Car and pickup certifications are others, and the tea money for each may be small but the numbers are vast, so the multiplication results in a very big number. That money goes all the way to the top of the DLT. But how to clean them out? They come under the Ministry of Transport, which is itself corrupt to the top. Hence the interest in airports and land bridges, not because they aid tourism, but because they are major capital projects from which they can cream off their percentage. The Ministry has been in the control of the Chidchob family for decades, directly or indirectly, and the amount of money they have taken over that time is hard to imagine. So they will not sort out the DLT. That seems to leave the PM, but she has never seen anything other than corruption. Her father ran several profitable businesses through corrupt contracts with various government officials, and then decided he wanted even more so chose to become the one who got paid rather than the one who did the paying. He has now put her in the hot seat, but there is no way she is going to sort it out. Also at the moment we seem to be talking about the driver, the bus company, and the vehicle inspectors, but then there are the people who modified the fuel system, and the coach builders who fitted flammable furniture, with inadequate fire exits. Rememeber that at least 36 of the passengers on the bus were aged between 3 and 9. Could they be expected to break a window, even with a special hammer? If the bus was on its side, breaking the windows may be helpful, but standing upright the children would still have been about 2 m above the ground, and unable to get down, When the accident first occuured, presumably by hitting a pothole and breaking the front axle, it came to a standstill, on a busy three lane road. At what point did the teachers realise that they needed to evacuate? Who was keeping the road clear? There have been some signs that the FFP/MFP/PP may be willing to address this endemic corruption from top to bottom but, as noted here many times, the establishment will do all in their power, and much which is not in their power, to prevent them from having the opportunity. Still hoping for change. -

Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
There was also some talk that one of the objectives was to capture the nuclear power plant. The offensive got stalled, they didn’t retreat when they could have. Some analysts suggested that this was so that Zelensky could further mislead the naive west (and some westerners) that victory was at hand. Maybe one particular poster could give us some insight into the objective of this incursion and give us an idea of what the troops think of Zelensky and Syrsky. -

Laminate/Vinyl flooring over wood floor
Hardwood is hardwood. Hardwood is a dense, durable material, but freshly ("current") cut hardwood contains natural moisture and should be properly aged or dried before use. White ants aka termites, do not reside in cracks of hardwood. They are social insects that nesting in colonies close to their queen and the worker termites venture out to find food in dark and moist environments. But it is quite plausible that they be found on hardwood on their venture finding softwood or cellulose based material. -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
Which Bank? And I wonder why a UK Bank would ask for a UK TIN Number (None of mine have my UK Tax Identifier Number) - Did they mean your National Insurance Number? Maybe they can be the same thing, but everybody who files a Tax Return is given a Unique Taxpayer Reference (UTR) which is what understand to be my UK Tax Identification Number. https://osome.com/uk/blog/tax-identification-number-tin/
