      Thailand to tax residents’ foreign income irrespective of remittance

      Pay attention to how he pronounces Pattaya. It may be silly, but just for this alone, I wouldn't choose him as my tax advisor.

      Does your Thai wife keep you on a short leash?

      This seems to be a popular notion here on Thaivisa, uh, er, AN. Act Like A Man! or she will romp all over you. I'm sure it happens, you know, to wussy boys who marry bar girls. Still lots of Thai women appreciate westerners as mates because, among other reasons, they do not belt seven bells a heck out of them, or move karaoke singers into the house, and kick them out, after literally kicking them. Both of which happened to some Thai women I know. I'm sure this is not what you mean, but for some, western airheads, it needs to be stated explicitly.

      What comes after election day (unless Trump wins the electoral college)

      Do bear in mind that all this Supreme Court to-do about the privileges of the president would also cover the one currently serving. If DT loses but puts up a fight I'd like to see Biden make use of the privileges SCOTUS has been coming up with for their orange-faced hero. Reference the SCOTUS discussion about the president being able to have Navy Seals kill his political enemy. Biden is out after the inauguration, he has nothing to lose, and by the time they bring him to court (at least two years) old Joe's health may render him unfit to stand trial. And if DT pulls his shenanigans again, and gets foiled, then comes his trial (however many years later), and HE may be the one that's unfit;. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/02/trump-immunity-murder-navy-sotomayor-00166385

      Deadlocked Between Trump and Harris in NBC News Poll as Election Approaches

      Danderman, The actual numbers thus far in PA is closer to 64% of the early vote has been Democrat and historically Republicans in PA vote on election day, so the numbers at this point historically have been much closer to 73-74% for Democrats, so they are behind by roughly 10% of where they usually are, but that is not the real problem for the Dems in PA, the real problem is that many of those registered Democrat early voters are Black Men, and 30%+ of Black men are going to vote for Trump over Harris, so a good chunk of those early Democrats votes, will actually be for Trump. There are only around 4 or 5 legitimate pollsters that have a good track record here in the U.S,. and all of them have Trump up in 6 of the 7 swing states, and the odds makers in the U.K. have had so much money bet on Trump this past week that their bookmaking odds as of today have Trump at over a 60% chance to become the 47th President of the United States. If I were you my friend, I would lock up all the sharp objects in your home on Nov. 5th, because when you arise on Nov. 6th and see that Trump has won a massive victory in the Electoral College and the Republicans have taken back the Senate and increased their majority in the House of Reps, you might have a visceral reaction like most of your ilk will. My suggestion is get prescribed some Prozac next week and take plenty of it when you arise on Nov. 6th.

      Passport expired and retirement extension?

      This is what you really need to get clarity on. As noted in one of the replies, there are a number of steps to renewing a U.S. passport, and if your friend hasn't specifically said he's filled out those forms, have photos made, paid, etc., I'd be concerned. Even if an agent undertakes handling the process, the applicant has to be involved at points, at the start for sure. Bottom line, find out for a fact if the renewal has or has not been initiated. If not, your friend should take possession of his passport ASAP and do the renewal process himself. Yes, he might need some help, as you describe he's older, and while not overly complicated, there are a lot of steps to complete and it could be challenging for some older applicants. I renewed my passport a few months ago, and it went pretty smooth. The embassy would like everything done by mail and online payments for the renewal and the post return service. (Thai Post is what I used.) https://th.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/passports/instructions-for-ds-82-processing-by-mail-and-online-fee-payment-for-u-s-citizens-residing-in-thailand/ Embassy info, phone number is there. https://th.usembassy.gov/embassy-consulate/

      No Thai Workers Held by Hamas, Says Parliament Secretary

      I wonder. How does Mr Mook Sulaiman know that "there are no longer any Thai workers in Hamas custody" when at the same time he admits that "their current whereabouts are unknown"? I wonder. Does Mr Sulaiman have a contact in the Hamas group who told him so? I wonder, but this may be irrelevant. Is Sulaiman an Arabic surname? I'm making no implications; just being my curious self.

      Going inside Kad Suan Kaew

      Gotta quit posting by phone - I don't see the complete post. I saw a film there in 03 ? Only ones I can recall are Return of the King, or Terminator from that year which does not seem like movies that theater would have, but yeah, been there done that. You caught it on its last legs, it had to be closed soon after 05.

      No Thai Workers Held by Hamas, Says Parliament Secretary

      Thailand is not Pro Hamas, what makes you say that? Which vote are you talking about, the resolution many months ago ordering Israel to ceasefire in Gaza or the one last month giving Israel 12 months to end Palestine Occupation? https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/09/1154391

      A vote for Trump is a vote for Putin / Orban / Kim Jong Un

      Such an incredible hypocrite. Everything Trump says and does is fakenand insincere. An internal whistleblower complaint at Trump Media calls for CEO Devin Nunes to be fired, alleging he has “severely” mismanaged the company and opened it to “substantial risk of legal action” from regulators, according to a copy reviewed by ProPublica. The letter also says that former President Donald Trump’s company is hiring “America Last” — alleging that Nunes imposed a directive to hire only foreign contractors at the expense of “American workers who are deeply committed to our mission.” “This approach not only contradicts the America First principles we stand for but also raises concerns about the quality, dedication, and alignment of our workforce with our core values,” the letter says. Trump’s promise to “stop outsourcing” and “punish” companies that send jobs abroad has been a centerpiece of his political career, including his current campaign for president. https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-media-whistleblower-complaint-devin-nunes
