House gop push bill that links federal funding to a citizenship check for new voters
I have shown photo ID every time I voted Then the poll workers check name off the registration list. There are other options “Voter ID” is a GOP trick to disenfranchise certain minorities no different than “tell me how many jelly beans are in the jar” -

Wife transfers from dependent visa to Retirement Visa in case I pass away before her.
Firstly, you should always have separate Wills for assets in Thailand and in your home Country and each should reference the other, Your legal spouse will always be regarded as the beneficiary in the event of your demise, and a Will can either confirm or change that. Not in the case of Thai spouse, who under Thai ascension law is the automatic beneficiary, unless a Will states otherwise. This as others have confirmed is why Thai banks advise you to withdraw any funds (if you have access) before advising the bank of the death. There are no repercussions in the case of the Thai spouse making those withdrawals, even without a Will, as she is legally entitled to it. I've helped Thai spouses and a Thai carer through this process 4 times in the last two years. -

Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
Now, now. The Russian agents, stooges and bots have assured us that the Russian economy is doing well. Remember that they have China and Iran on their side and when that argument fails, they shall give us a chorus of Brics, Brics, Brics. -

Best Song of Past 100 Years? Your Vote?
Only an arrogant person would have the audacity to claim one song as the "best". It is subjective and there can never be one that is the "best". If that was the case, in honour of the senior citizens residing in Chiang mai and pattay, we present the wonderful Wayne Newton; -

Western Union better than “Wise”
I've been using (Transfer)Wise for 5+ years. Money formerly arrived in my Bangkok Bank acct in 1-2 days from the USA. Fastest ever was 8 hours. Since the beginning of this year, transfers are taking 1 week for ACH transfer. -

Poll: Do you want Ukraine to WIN in the Russia-Ukraine war (it's a binary choice)
And many a male visitor to Thailand sees himself as a shining white knight arriving to save young women (and boys) from the sordid life of the beer bar. Sadly, they are lotharios both at heart and in their actions. -

Game over
Dr. Yong is entitled to his opinion. But the facts tell a different story. Right now, Thailand is merely in the normal "low" season for COVID activity after the typical post-Song Kran-mid-year surge. But just several months back in June 2024, Thailand was reporting a year's peak of 3,000+ new COVID hospitalizations in a week, 16 deaths per week and more than 700 COVID patients hospitalized in serious condition for that week. MoPH Weekly COVID report for the week ending June 29, 2024: Comparing the 2024 COVID peak in Thailand with the comparable mid-year 2023 peak, reported COVID deaths (in dark gray color) were lower in 2024 (and that's good new). But the peak of new weekly COVID hospitalizations (in red color) and the number of COVID patients hospitalized in serious condition (in dark purple color) were both HIGHER in 2024 than in 2023, not lower. MoPH Weekly COVID report for the week ending June 3, 2023: https://ddc.moph.go.th/covid19-dashboard/?dashboard=main There's nothing to suggest that Thailand won't have another similar COVID surge next spring, just as it has for the past two years -- the severity of which will only become known when it arrives. In general, certain segments of the Thai establishment have a very vested interest in minimizing anything negative about COVID because, news reports of people being hospitalized and dying from COVID (admittedly largely but not entirely involving the elderly these days) would put a wet blanket on the country's major efforts to restore its tourism activity and revenues. So there's a vested interest here to pretend that it's all just gone away -- even when it hasn't. -

Best Song of Past 100 Years? Your Vote?
"Imagine" by John Lennon is often considered the best song of the past 100 years. It doesn't get my vote, but it is the opinion of many. In terms of which song has had the most influence in the past 100 years, I would say the U.S. Civil War song "Battle Hymn of the Republic." It had a significant role as both a marching song for Northern troops and an inspirational song for civilians. Lines from the song have been used as the titles of movies and books as well as in speeches. Several of Dr. Martin Luther King's most famous speeches have made reference to or quoted "Battle Hymn of the Republic." King's last publicly spoken words before his assasination were "Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord." -

Revisiting History: The Unlikely Campaign to Vilify Winston Churchill
See, this is how history becomes lies. You quote this without saying that all this was done AFTER the British initated the bombing of civilians officially in May 1940. The Second Great Fire of London was of course payback for the carpet bombing the British had started in May 1940. You should state the full facts. -

Thailand issues four major announcements on new visa measures
By not workable, I believe they mean not workable for a certain class investors that have high turnover as part of their investment strategy. Having an effective tax rate exceeding 100% is not workable. Imagine you hold two stock options expiring a year out, one goes up 100% while the other craters to zero. You now have a tax bill for 30% on that 100% gain (or whatever your bracket is), on a net gain of $0.
