Coming to Thailand
It's called doing their job just like in every other country in the world. They are there to use their discretion and assess the person in front if them for risk. I have to laugh at people that make the claims you made or the ever popular "rogue" officer or "irrational female officer". The problem generally lies with the traveller's and their history, not the imm officer. -

Nationwide Alcohol Sales Ban Set for October 17th as Thailand Marks End of Buddhist Lent
Well I bought beer in BigC on Monday and we ate and drank at a restaurant (though not in anyone's 'honour'). Monday was not a booze-ban day at all. As for tomorrow, I was grateful for the warning because these things catch me out. If I know in advance, I don't have to get annoyed. Or impugn someone else's culture. "Exclude farangs"? Seriously? You just arrived or something? -

Nationwide Alcohol Sales Ban Set for October 17th as Thailand Marks End of Buddhist Lent
No need to scurry. I can take my time to get to the mom and pop shop and join the queue of Thais buying their alcohol. Some people on this forum have absolutely no idea. This has nothing at all to do about alcoholism. It's a prohibition enforced on religious grounds to appease a minority. Nothing to do with culture either. Indeed having a booze up on a day off is more culturally accurate and there'll be plenty of that going on on Thursday. -

Thai Street Vendor Attacked by 20 Youths After Firework Warning
No need to give them real guns, just give them a brush and a shovel, and set them to work on the golf courses like they already do. The important thing is to get them away from their mothers / grandmothers and force some discipline into them -

Car Cuts Off Ambulance Twice While Transporting Patient from Khon Kaen to Chonburi
I never mentioned anything about what lane the ambulance was driving. I leave the hospital personnel to attend to patients needing health professionals. Following in your car will not be of any benefit to anyone. Thank you for you compliment by the way. -

Majority of Americans Urge CBS to Release Full Transcript of Harris's Interview
The fact is they haven't released it. If you want to (pretend to) believe it's because she was so breathtakingly brilliant in the parts they removed that they fear for Trump's chances, you are entitled to do that. 😃- 1

Hopefully the police now have the number plate details. Should be easy to track down the owner/driver unless, of course, the vehicle was stolen. -

125 million baht in assets temporarily seized in iCon Group scandal
The Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO) temporarily seized 125 million baht in assets from the iCon Group CEO and three key members of the executive board for up to 90 days during an investigation into its alleged Ponzi scheme. The AMLO issued an official statement yesterday, October 15, announcing that the assets of the four main leaders of the iCon Group would be apprehended for up to 90 days to prevent them from concealing or transferring assets during the investigation. The four executives mentioned in the statement are iCon Group CEO Waratphol “Paul” Waratworakul, TV host Kan Kantathavorn, Nichaphon Thongmee, and Jittaya Hong-uppatham. The total value of the assets seized from the four executives exceeds 125 million baht, including funds in securities trading accounts, current accounts, savings accounts, and digital asset trading accounts, along with accrued interest. The AMLO also issued a warning to anyone involved in transferring, receiving, or altering the condition of these assets, cautioning them about the penalties for money laundering, which can include imprisonment for one to 10 years, fines ranging from 20,000 to 200,000 baht, or both. More complaints continue to be filed against the iCon Group, with further information and scandals related to the company being exposed. Both former investors and ex-employees of the company came forward, sharing confidential details with the media. “Deities” support business Recently, two crucial voice recordings were made public, suggesting that Boss Paul paid bribes to deities, suspected of referring to Thai government officials and politicians who allegedly supported his business. On the Channel 7 news programme ถกไม่เถียง (The Discussion), a Thai man named Palm appeared and claimed to be a former employee of the company. Palm alleged that the iCon Group was operating illegally and had to pay bribes to the deities to continue its operations. According to Palm, the company exchanged cash for the cryptocurrency USDT through illegal Chinese businesses in Thailand to pay bribes, making the transactions difficult to trace. Palm claimed that these operations cost the company more than 10 billion baht in payments to the deities. He added that a powerful person known only as “T” acted as the company’s advisor, helping them avoid serious criminal charges, and hinted that an even more powerful figure was backing Boss Paul. Palm also alleged that the company falsified its records, reducing the number of agents from 600,000 to 300,000 before submitting the figures to the police. The founder of non-profit organisation Saimai Survive, Ekkaphop Leuangprasert, revealed on a news programme that he possesses voice recordings as evidence and issued a warning to the deities to step back from the issue. He threatened to reveal the names of all the influential figures involved if they did not withdraw from the matter. by Petch Petpailin Photo via Facebook/ บอสพอล วรัตน์พล Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-10-16 -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
I assume by "all digital" you just mean your financial institution doesn't send you any paper records. I have that arrangement with my primary brokerage. If I want a statement I can download a PDF that when printed is indistinguishable from what they would send via post. -
