Cheapo Funeral......where, and how much.
Thank you for the comprehensive reply. The problem here is, the Guy, a US citizen died quickly, in hospital, of cancer. No wife or relatives in Thailand, few friends, and due to unfortunate lapses of cognition before being forced into medical intervention, locked out of his assets.... so only 8000 baht cash available. Attempts to unlock his assets were thwarted by his untimely demise. Now huge and accumulating hospital bills, and issues with the family in US, no way to fund the processes to unlock his assets...... -

Expat Taxation - Does anyone really know what's going on?
A caveat (?) I would apply is getting a Thai TIN is not always so easy. My wife tried for me (online application) some months back, and thus far this has failed. The online application for the TIN goes to the Bangkok office. The Bangkok office passed it to the Phuket office. An official from the Phuket office called us (talking to my wife on the phone). The official asked, why did I want a tax ID? My wife replied that it was because I was thinking I may need to file a Thai tax income return. The tax official asked what was my income, and was I bringing that income into Thailand? My wife noted my income was foreign pensions, and that while at present I was not bringing the money into Thailand, I was thinking to bring some in to Thailand in the future. The official replied if I was not bringing the money into Thailand, then I did not have to file a tax return. My wife noted I had a Thai Pink-ID, and was that an acceptable Tax ID? She noted that she had tried to use that Pink-ID in the online tax submission form for Thailand, and the Pink-ID was rejected. The official replied for the Pink-ID to be used as a tax ID (online) it needed to be activated first. The official repeated I did not need to file a tax ID if I was not bringing money into Thailand. My wife went one question further (not so relevant to this Aseannow thread), noted i was on an LTR visa, and if on that Visa would I need to submit a tax return if I brought money into Thailand. The official replied he never heard of an LTR visa. My wife also asked, if I earn money from interest (bonds/bank/mutual funds) in Thailand, given there was already a withholding tax, at what amount would I be required to file a tax return? The official replied, he would check and call my wife back (re: LTR visa and also filing a tax return for foreign/Thai amounts of income). He never called back. Clearly he was not in a hurry to give a foreigner a Thai tax ID. So while waiting for a phone call back, that will likely NEVER come, I, like everyone else, will watch to see how this plays out in the coming year. I did come away with the sense that (1) Thai tax authorities are not keen on receiving a bunch of new paperwork (with more tax returns) and (2) Thai tax authorities themselves don't know yet the impact of the new tax interpretations, and (3) it is NOT always an easy process for a foreigner to get a Thai tax ID. At present time, its looking to me things are "in flux" and very few (anyone?) know for certain the outcome of the possible changes. -

Gun permit, licens
Nope, about 50% of my Thai family have one and most of them are not rich. -

It Would Be Nice to Know Who Is Running the Government
Yes, the Democrats elegantly took the voters out of the process. But obviously Trump is the threat to democracy, lol. -

Hybrid vs Turbo petrol new car choice.
The issue with tuning these engines is the gearbox, it's the weak link, it won't stand a huge hike in power, I would do some research to find what the experts think is the limit. -

Honest Question: How is Trump a 'threat to Democracy'?
"Non-Americans" (non-citizens?) are already not allowed to vote. What Trump and the Republicans are doing is making it much more difficult for citizens to register and vote by imposing ID requirements that many citizens, especially minorities and the poor, cannot meet. You hurt my feelings when you say I post "rubbish." Yes, both parties place allies in key positions when they take office. I never said they didn't. I guess this comment of yours was in response to my mention of gerrymandering, which I agree both parties do. Oh, more accusations of "rubbish"! You hurt my feelings again! Trump has always wanted and has consistently tried to become a dictator. More hurt feelings! Trump does not care about the US Constitution. As any dictator would, he will try to do what he wants without any regard to the Constitution. Just one example of that is what led up to the Jan 6 Insurrection. He tried to have his vice president, Pence, accept votes from states from Electors who were not appointed by their state. Pence, however, knowing the limits of his constitutional authority, refused to do so. Then, the insurrection ensued. And accusations of posting "garbage" also hurts my feelings! If you'll re-read my initial post, you'll see I prefaced all of my remarks with "IMO," which means "in my opinion." Most everything could be "supported by facts," if by that you mean "references to online sources," but as I'm sure you know, all of us can find online sources for almost anything we want, true or not. That's the state of the online world today. I guess you could say much of it is "rubbish" or "garbage." -

If passed, how likely is global income tax in 2025? Or is 2026 more likely?
“They” have a concept of a plan. Where have I heard this recently? -

I'm also curious what (if any) role the voters played in the "Democratic" process. Big D.- 1

you damn well know you are lying. Here is what he really thinks, not his new "tone it down" style. -

12 month net sim still working 2 years later
my 30-day AIS tourist SIM is still active 12 months later. I let it lapse after the first month. After 3 months back at home, I was able to put a few baht on it and it fired straight back up. Now I just make sure to keep an eye on it while I'm out of the country (home) and keep at least a few baht credit on it, until I'm in Thailand. No problem whatsoever. I think they keep the number reserved for at least 6 months, if you let the credit expire. -

Heavy duty speaker stands in Thailand? Where to buy them or get them custom made?
I expect you're right - the packaging alone probably cost 5% of the total to design and produce... 😄 However, I don't have the ability to design and build something myself so the sound improvement is worth every penny to me as all these incremental gains add up.
