Called at the Chonburi Taxation office
Just for fun, perhaps organize a super fun FLASH MOB where tens of thousands of local non -Thai speaking retired folks (do not bring Thai parners!), many in wheelchairs, the vast majority will end up owing no tax anyway, to show up on one special day to demand their TINs! Make sure the press is notified. Good idea? -

Elderly couple gets 500 baht electricity bill for a single fan - video
A TikTok user discovered an unusually high electricity bill for an elderly couple who used only a single fan. The bill amounted to 500 baht, raising suspicions among social media users about potential electrical issues or misuse. TikTok user @bank_waiyaphat, who works as an electricity bill distributor, posted a video highlighting the anomaly in the electricity usage of a home inhabited by an elderly couple. Despite only using a single fan, their bill soared to 500 baht. The video shows the TikTok user discussing the matter with the elderly homeowner, although communication was challenging due to her hearing difficulties. Assistance from neighbours was necessary to facilitate the conversation and understand the situation. The perplexity stemmed from the fact that the household only operated a fan, suggesting that the bill should not have reached such a high amount. This sparked a wave of online discussions, with many netizens expressing their doubts. Several suggested possibilities, such as someone possibly siphoning electricity from the couple’s home or an electrical leakage. There were calls for the TikTok user to investigate further, to which he agreed. One comment compared the situation with another household’s experience: “My parents live in a rural area with a fan, fridge, and TV, and their bill is only about 400 baht. I pay for their bills from Bangkok, so why is this grandmother’s bill so high?” Some netizens were willing to help alleviate the couple’s financial burden by offering to pay the electricity bill. However, the TikTok user clarified in a comment that the woman’s son, who works in the southern region, had already covered the payment. Despite this, the underlying cause of the exorbitant bill remained unaddressed. Additionally, the TikTok user received commendations for his diligence in spotting the irregularity and his proactive approach to assisting the elderly couple. “Well done to you for noticing the problem and stepping in to help rather than ignoring it,” one commenter remarked. The incident drew attention to the broader issue of electricity billing discrepancies and the challenges faced by elderly individuals living alone, reported KhaoSod.
