Introduction to Personal Income Tax in Thailand
Cross posted for exposure and information purposes: I started building my taxes spreadsheet last month so I will know in advance where I will end up at year end and have time to adjust things as necessary to minimize tax. My finances are fairly simple, three pensions from two countries, rental income, investments and savings. I file a UK and Thai return (or at least I may file a Thai return). By mixing and matching my income sources, I can earn a decent amount of income each month but avoid any tax, at least I can the way the rules are written currently. The first nine months of the year are behind us so I have those actual numbers, the remaining three months are estimated and monitored. Somebody somewhere may get something useful out of this to help them better understand their tax situation or maybe even help provide some tips regarding strategy. -

Foreign couple loses 100,000 baht to Muay Thai trainer in Phuket
This is endemic in Asian culture . Japanese trust another Japanese in a foreign country even though they knew each other relatively recently. At least that is what my Japanese friend told me in Thailand. He said his country folk will never stab him in the back. -

Incredible US banking ineptness
My plan if things go south with my too big to fail bank because I live here is move everything over to the State Department Federal Credit Union https://www.sdfcu.org/. One needs to become a member of an affiliate organization but it seems a better option than cashing out retirement accounts. -

Thai gov. to tax (remitted) income from abroad for tax residents starting 2024 - Part II
On a different aspect: I started building my taxes spreadsheet last month so I will know in advance where I will end up at year end and have time to adjust things as necessary to minimize tax.

Oh god, "illegal" immigration again. is there a thread this doesn't get dragged into? You can obtain Thai citizenship. There are rules. But it is possible and several foreigners who used to post here did just that. -

Foreigners love to stay in places where there are international airports such as phuket, chiangmai, hua hin , chiang rai because less hassle needing to get connecting local flights when coming back to Thailand.. At least that is where I would locate to. -

Documentary explores war crimes being posted on social media.
Are you sure that it wasn't a Wolf that raped the man ? Was it a boy that witnessed the rape ? The boy could have shouted "There's a wolf , there's a wolf....................and all the villagers ignored him because they'd heard it all before"- 1

I don't think you can plug a monitor into another. The monitors only have INPUTS, not OUTPUTS. -

White Culture
Different times, environment, war, starvation leads to inventions, as well good economic times leads to excess time to study world mysteries and physical laws, that again leads to hreat inventions and technology. Usa is on a downfall on good economic times and excess budgets to invent new things, however Saudi and China do have budgets to continue renewing technology and push further. -

The EU's Struggle with Identity: A Shift Towards Xenophobia and Ethnic Nationalism?
Which could be to do with retaliation for having your family blown to pieces in front of your eyes, your neighbour's legs ripped off, being tortured by invading forces for days, weeks, months on end, your country totally destroyed, your way of life, your livelihood. What a few crazies in Europe commit is horrendous, but compared to the combined military might of the UK and the US? Is there any real comparison? Massive bombs from 30,000 ft, or a lone lunatic with a knife? You at least have a chance against him. Oh, and not forgetting the likes of Anders Behring Brevik. He wasn't a Muslim, was he? Killed 77 in one day, all totally innocent young people. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anders_Behring_Breivik -
