Is the Tax compliance going to be linked to Visa issuance ?
That's the 65k baht a month method. The 800k baht method generally means you use some / all of the 800k, and top it up near extension time. Very funny if the account shows a solid 800k, with no out goings and no in comings, and you are still living here. If so, question, what law have you broken? Ahhhh, tax evasion I hear some saying. Tax evasion, or tax minimization? Might be some interesting scapegoat falang legal cases in the media next year. It's going to be entertaining. -

baggage
I always fly Thai to OZ I always had a limit of 20 KG on checked luggage and carried a backpack I could put in the overhead locker or under my seat. Never had any problems at all. I prefer to put it under the seat since it contains Laptop and documents . -

At one point, not so long ago, I counted your last 20 consecutive posts were all trolling, baiting, off topic, flaming, baiting and personally attacking me. I stopped counting after 20, and reported none of them. Seems like you are starving yourself of oxygen. Keep up the good work. -

Medicare v Private Health Insurance - Different strategies - Are you covered?
That would tend to show you are not residing in Thailand full time. so not an expat. Is that correct? Agree. Horror stories everywhere. It's just most tend to be from the public system. Why is that? Do you have a link for that? Yeah, so would I. Example: if I cut my finger slicing some food in the kitchen and need a few stitches. Other than than, Medicare can be poor medical treatment, and untimely. Sounds good, don't you think? Who wouldn't sign up for that? So, you are not really an expat. Say you lived in Thailand full time. What would you do? Medicare is free, and you get what you pay for, and that is, who they want for the job, and when they want to do the job. No thanks, not for me. Yes, it's expensive, but what price do you put on your health / life? -

White Culture
The downfall of the German automobile industry started with its embrace of of cutting production costs through shortcuts and the embrace of cheaper parts with a built in obsolescence. German auto workers were trained for years and labour was respected. No more. Today's products reflect that embrace of short term profit , of greed over quality and pride of workmanship. That's "White Western Culture" . The British did not start out as pirates. The reality is that all countries with a ocean going capability were equally given to piracy. It was Great Britain which helped put an end to international piracy, and in particular with the Dutch, brought peace to the South China Sea. The "White" culture of the British is what ensured that some semblance of security was put into effect to protect shipping routes and the passage of people without constant attack. The accusations against the British as plagiarists and copyists (sic) is nonsense. The reality is that such behaviour was the norm throughout the developing world. We saw it with some of the great musical composers of all time where they often "borrowed" from students or lesser musicians. We have seen it in scientific R&D where scientists often borrowed from others. The fact is that the activities were all in their own cultural sphere. No one was copying or plagiarizing from the Arab world, or from Africa or from the Americas. The greatest barrier to R&D is the ease of Communication. Cultures that do not have a language basis that allows an ease in communicating and in disseminating complex concepts are at a disadvantage. The Chinese language is vast and inconsistent. The language relies on characters, which includes at least 50,000 characters, of which an estimated 10,000 are used in regular communication. Consider that the English and French alphabet has 26 letters, the German has 30, and the Russian alphabet 33 letters and it becomes obvious why some cultures have been able to share information faster and to advance quickly. Vietnam is an excellent example. It changed to a Roman alphabet in the early 1900's and that is what laid the foundation to its development. Instead of relying on cumbersome chinese characters to communicate with, the Vietnamese language could be communicated with a simplified and consistent easy to master series of 29 letters that preserved and respected Vietnamese tones and cultural meanings. You also ignore the fact that great scientific though requires a nurturing environment. The west offers its innovaters a place to think and live in freedom. China cannot offer its scientists this, nor will it. One need only look at the disappearing scientists of China during Covid to understand that point. -

You continually to refuse to answer the absolute simplest question put to you. That is, which pension are you on? A Vet's pension, or the Aged pension. You have posted like you receive both, and you can't. So, go on the record. What pension are you on? Simple question, really. -

What's this?: Can I eat it?
Dear Folks, As you may or may not know, I am a retiree on a tight budget. This is why, anytime I venture outside my house, I am always on the lookout for things edible, in order to supplement my meager diet. Due to inflation in Thailand, I have less real money to spend on food. So then, I have seen a few of these around my house. And I am wondering if they might be a source of protein, if I either eat them raw or, maybe even cook them. I am a sashimi lover. And, I love octopus, sliced thinly..... So, if I were to open this guy up, and slice him thinly, would it be OK? Or, would it be better to heat him up, just to be sure to kill any parasites that might be lurking within him? This is one heck of a big guy, and I have not seen many larger than he. Do you eat things in your garden....similar to this? Personally, I am a naturalist, even more than I am a naturist. This is why I find this guy so gall-darned fascinating. He is still here.....and he is slow moving. So, let's get a few opinions on this question, before he gets away. Thank you, much. I am always very hungry, these days, since inflation set in...following the Pandemic. Best regards, And thank you for your help..... Gamma NOTE4: Having spent just about my entire life in China, like the Chinese, I can eat almost anything....and love it. -

Unlike yourself, and many other members, I've never reported any post, ever. Just like I will not report this troll post of yours. Couldn't care less. Bottom line is, as mentioned by two other members, Medicare and private health insurance is off topic in the Australian Aged Pension. Why didn't you report all of those posts, like you usually do? -

Why Men Are Rejecting Marriage
I understood what you wrote. What I don't quite understand is why your comment has a negative tone to it. After reading about men who are "taken to the cleaners" by both American and Thai women, I consider myself fortunate that I was able to convince a judge to annul my marriage, leaving the ex wife with nothing. As for "the brains" of the operation. My wife has a degree in business and knows what to do when it comes to that. She is also very good with numbers. I am tapped to make decisions about a variety of other subjects, so we seem to make a good pair in the course of our lives together. -

First 90 day report - does it have to be done in person, not online?
My guess is (and it's only a guess) that all online notifications are handled at the same place and a central database gets updated. If you look at the rejection notice I received, it was dated 31st of August, which was a Saturday, and Khonkaen immigration doesn't open on a Saturday
