Why Do Ex-Bar Girls Remain in Pattaya?
It was a depressing read. There is no joy in the life of an inked up Pattaya prostitute. Consider that their likelihood of dying alone and destitute is high. Consider that their likelihood of dying from uterine cancer is many times higher than other women because of their likelihood of being infected with HPV, which also manifests as warts. Consider their likelihood of most likely suffering the effects of long term drinking and smoking. Consider the fact that they most likely have been able to establish more than transactional relationships and are emotionally alone. It was an article highlighting the fact that the women cannot go anywhere else because of their social stigma. And now, here you come along to claim it is a childish comment. You, the person who spews infantile nonsense ad nauseam. -

LTR Visa is Now available for Long Term Residency
There has been no changes that I am aware of since early this year. Last year there was PAW.161 and PAW.162 which does not mention the LTR visa, but rather for all tax residents in Thailand (ie anyone, including both Thai and foreigners, who spends a accumulated time of >180 days in Thailand) will have to pay tax on any assessable income brought into Thailand after 31-Dec-2023. Money (income/savings) from prior to 1-Jan-2024 brought into Thailand will not be taxed if brought into Thailand. (EDIT: DTA with income source country also has to be considered here). However there is ALSO the Royal Decree 743 in force. As you likely know the Royal Decree 743 states that for Wealthy pensioners and Wealthy global citizens, assessable income brought into Thailand is exempt taxation. Note it refers to 'assessable' income. ... The Royal Decree 743 states nothing about tax returns (directly), although the Royal Decree does state (in section-6) that a foreigner must comply with rules, procedures, and conditions prescribed by the Director-General of the Revenue Department. The concern here is that might mean having to file a tax return even if one is exempt paying tax on assessable foreign income. The Royal Decree also states (section-7) that a failure to comply with the rules in section-6 will result in benefits suspended for that tax year. When you were informed by BoI, did you talk at all about bringing or not bringing any assessable income into Thailand? Did you talk about any Thai income you may have? FOR CERTAIN if you have Thai income over a certain amount, you MUST FILE A THAI TAX RETURN and what BoI stated does NOT cover that situation. Its less clear to me if a tax return is required if the LTR wealthy pension visa holder's only income is assessable foreign income. I ask because Phuket RD, specifically advised me that if I brought no money into Thailand (and if I had no Thai income), I did not have to file a tax return, nor would they provide me an 'active' tax-ID. So if you told BoI you did not plan to bring money into Thailand when on your LTR visa, then that obscures the assessement as to the applicability of the BoI statement on tax return requirements to all Wealthy Pensioners. So what did you say to BoI about foreign income you planned to bring into Thailand. Did you say anything about that to BoI? ... and one last point, I believe the deciding criteria (re: tax return needed or not for an LTR Wealth pension visa holder) is the Thai Revenue Department (RD) and not BoI - although obviously it is of interest to hear of the BoI opinion. . -

UK Controversial Junk Food Crackdown Targets Breakfast Staples Including Porridge
But isn't rice a high glycemic food? So, Thailand should have always been a obese nation if that's the case. Also the definition of obese has dramatically changed over the years. being slightly overweight is now classed as obese. -

Grounded: Thai AirAsia denies ticket fraud, blames airline app
Interesting - thanks. With respect, why then do the airport wheelchair staff wear the red "Air Asia" ribbons around their necks to display their ID cards? This was the case recently at Siem Reap Angkor Airport, and Chiang Mai Airport. -
