Tax advice
I see my comment maybe a bit unclear, but I meant people who still pay tax on their income in UK, say for receiving private pension or from dividend, interest etc., and end up also being charged tax for importing their own money into Thailand, then can claim this from HMRC. No loop hole at all, as it happens I have some shares from US, Canada, Ireland (all iShare ETFs), the dividend payments from these are taxed at source, I receive details from my brokers. I put this in my self assessment form online, and they are automatically deducted from my total tax every year.... -

Syrian Rebels Take Damascus As Assad Flees Amid Global Concerns
I suppose like all those Free Poles went back home when Lech Walesa was elected. They were asylum seekers as well, changed the character of whole towns in the English Midlands, forcing local people to eat smoked pork sausages. The nerve of it..... Wait, they didn't. Neither did Gregory down at the local Football Supporters Club moaning about what Stalin did to his beloved Ukraine. The couple running the local Indian restaurant didn't go back to Uganda after Idi Amin fled to Saudi Arabia. Many Syrians will of course return home. Why would they. Britain is full of people who they don't know, never met, but who hate them anyhow. Many will stay, tough it out, as the UK is now their home, just like Nigel Farage's Hugenot ancestors did. My Thai wife is firmly convinced that the majority of British people hate foreigners, especially Asians. Not sure where she got that idea from. -

Thailand throws ‘baht’ at impact study of 10,000-baht handouts
It was a scheme to get votes for the party who promised the plods that, if they voted their party into power, they would in turn reward the voting public by opening the treasury up and showing the commoners with public money. Of course it was a lie. They are wringing their hands and plotting on how to renege without causing a social uproar, and my guess, create the conditions for another coup. It's called - "Vote Buying." Although not technically illegal in this case, it should be. -

Shouldn't they just look at the overall affect it has had on the economy? Either it has boosted the economy, or it hasn't. -

Is there anything good about getting old?
Great attitude to life. You've won the health lottery which is the most important one.
