Syrian government falls in stunning end to 50-year rule of Assad family
I'd suggest Putin has deliberately pulled the rug from under Asad. He benefits from an unstable Syria and doesn't have to support the old regime with arms when he is fighting a war in Ukraine. It really doesn't matter to him who is in power, so long as chaos reigns it will help his influence in the middle east. I'm sure he made it clear to the rebels that Russia wouldn't intervene. -

Thai lawyer argues most expats won’t be impacted by personal income tax
Indeed, a lot of people seem to think you can just pick and choose your residency back in your home country - as you found to your detriment, you can't. -

Whistleblower Alleges Normalized Anti-Semitism at the BBC
Why would jews call other jews anti-semitic because they're criticizing their government??? The line between anti-zionism and anti-semitism is that some people are against the agenda of the zionists, while they don't have a problem with non zionistic Jews, while an anti-semite is against all Jews. Obviously anyone with a brain would not use the term zionist as a synonym for all Jews. I'm also not holding all Jews responsible for what the zionistic regime in Israel does, but any Jew who supports their crime of wars. Israel has become the oppressor, whether you like it or not and they're equally as much to blame for what's going on than test of the evil parties involved! It's not about defending itself anymore. They merely use this as a disguise for their genocide! I never said I'm supporting any heavy-duty retribution. What I'm saying is, if you play with fire long enough you will eventually get burned. They did on October 7th and it won't be the last time. Again, it's always so conveniently left out why the attacks on October 7th happened. All I hear is they got attacked and now they're defending themselves. But what lead up to it? I'm sure the 15 years of sanctions and the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip has absolutely nothing to do with it! Try to see it from the Palestinian point of view for just effing once!!!! -

All issues related to CRS are mostly irrelevant with the current remittance system in place, remember it exists for western countries to tax those with offshore bank accounts. Thailand with the remittance based system doesn't really stand to benefit from any of this information and if you're no longer a tax resident in your home country then they're not going to care what you have or do in Thailand unless they tax non residents - which they don't in almost every country except for 1. -

Is there anything good about getting old?
The best lesson in life I had about getting old was in 1995. On December 2, a day before my birthday, I got a severe stroke. I woke up in the IC in the hospital, naked and surrounded by all kind of machines beeping. Later I was told that I had passed away, but somehow came back to life. A few weeks after the IC unit, I was transferred to a room. Still paralyzed, I needed help for everything. Putting butter in my bread, go to the toilet, wash myself, etc. A few days after, a man came in my room with his whole family. He had been working all his life as a "Warehouseman" for a big company and was just 4 months retired. We chatted about our lifes and how he was planning his retired life with trips everywhere. He would endly be able to make a cruise with his wife, something they were always dreaming off. A few days after he was admitted to the hospital, a doctor came in the room and told him that they were going to make some tests the next day. The next day, 2 nurses put him on a wheelchair and drove him away. About 3 hours later he came back in the room with a big smile. Everything seemed to be ok with his body. Sadly enough, that evening, the doctor came into the room and told him the bad news. The test had discovered a few "white spots" on the X-Ray pictures and were defined as "CANCER CELLS". The doctor told him that it was best for him to have the infected part of lung removed before it would spread out. He accepted to remove a part of his lung and the next few days I could hear the sound of a pump attached to his bed and sucking the fluid out of his long. A week went over and he was still making plans for the future with his wife. But his doctor came back in the room to tell him that the CANCER had already spread on his lung and the best option would be to remove his lung. He accepted to remove his lung and the next few days I could hear the sound of a pump attached to his bed and sucking the fluid out of his long. A week went over, and he started to accept the fact that his future was not lasting long and he could forget his cruise. A few days later, I was released from the hospital and continued to recover at home. End of January, I received a phone call from his wife that he was given a few hours of life. I rushed to the hospital and he was lying unconscious in his bed, most of internal organs removed and all kind of macjines was keeping him alive. I hold his hand, and a few minutes later I hear the endless beep of the heart rate screen. Moral of the story: We were told that we had to work our life to build up a family and retire, but this was completly wrong. Live your life to the fullest whilst you can and are still able to annd don't worry about a future that my never come.
