TM30 Online - receipt?
Works for me it will say "informed" when they approve it. It will be in their system if he was approved. If not, the worst is a fine I believe 1500 b. Maybe contact the agent they still may have the receipt. -

Why some of us did not get COVID symptoms …even though we were exposed.
Not only Congress. The people working at the FDA, the CDC, the White House, the Courts, employees of Pfizer and Moderna, etc. In other words, they had to exempt people who would say no because they knew the score or could easily find out. -

Deadly New Year Roads: 215 Deaths in Five Days
Thailand’s roads have proven deadly once again during the New Year holiday season, with 215 lives lost just five days into the “10 Dangerous Days” road safety campaign, officials revealed today. The statistics were announced by Somsak Thepsuthin, Minister of Public Health and head of the New Year Road Safety Command Centre, during a press briefing at the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation. From December 27 to 31, 2024, there were 1,398 road accidents, resulting in 1,354 injuries and 215 fatalities. Motorcycles were involved in the majority of incidents, accounting for 89.93% of crashes. Speeding remained the leading cause (42.75%), followed by drink-driving (24.43%) and reckless overtaking (21.37%). Most incidents occurred on straight roads, with highways under the Department of Highways accounting for 40.84% of incidents, and local village roads for 30.92%. The most dangerous times for road travel were identified as 00:01–01:00, 5:01–6:00 pm, and 18:01–19:00, accounting for 8.02% of incidents. The highest risk group for fatalities and injuries were individuals aged 20–29 years, representing 18.51% of the total. On December 31 alone, 262 incidents were recorded, resulting in 245 injuries and 36 deaths. Chiang Rai reported the highest number of incidents (12) and fatalities (5) on that day, while Chiang Mai saw the highest number of injuries (11). In total, Ayutthaya led with the highest cumulative number of incidents (44), Phuket recorded the most injuries (43), and Bangkok and Nonthaburi shared the highest death toll, each reporting 10 fatalities. However, 11 provinces reported no fatalities. Minister Somsak warned that the risk remains high as millions begin their journeys home following New Year celebrations. Fatigue from insufficient rest after late-night festivities and ongoing celebrations in some areas has been flagged as a significant risk factor. Authorities have responded by setting up 1,781 main checkpoints manned by over 50,000 personnel nationwide to manage traffic, enforce road safety regulations, and reduce congestion. With five days of the campaign remaining, the government continues to push its “Safe Driving, Accident-Free Thailand” initiative to foster a culture of road safety.

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
In the first nine months of the year, foreigners acquired condominiums in Thailand for a total of 51 billion Thai baht, with an average unit price of approximately 4.6 million baht. Foreign buyers account for 20-25% of the total condominium purchase volume nationwide, making them a significant—arguably essential—group for sustaining the overall market. While discussing these statistics, the minister reiterated that the relaxation of ownership quota rules is under consideration, emphasizing their intention to attract increased foreign investment into the Thai real estate market. As you’re all aware, every condominium purchase requires an international FX transfer document to be presented at the land office. It is estimated that 70-80 billion Thai baht will flow into Thailand through such transactions in 2024 alone. For those who believe in "realpolitik," one might argue that it will not only be administratively cumbersome to audit these buyers, determine whether they are tax residents, and calculate their tax liabilities for these transfers but also counterproductive to the government's goal of encouraging foreign investment.
